The near approach of the St. Leger, or say other great event, necessarily draws together the majority of subscribers to the subscription-morn, mid taking into mini-ignition the various counter-attractions at this essentially sporting ' period of the year the attendauce at Hyde-perk-corner this afternoon was quite up to the average. The doorman! tendency of Lord Clifden during the two previous days served as another inducement. and on their assembling in the room Lord St. Vincent's bores well put op at the long odds of 20 to 1, at which figures be remained fur some coo sidemble time, no owe feeling reclined to (tome to the rescue ; but just at the finials 100 to 6 was accepted about him to a " pony." But an impression pre vailed that it was only an attempt to stay his downward tendency, and although he left off at the price quoted below his lordship was pronounced almost on all sides "gone." The Ranger, who had been supported in the City on Saturday and this morn ing, was again in immense force, anything over 7to 2 having been accepted, but at the close layers would not increase those odds by a fractional part. 15 to 2 was booked several time, about Avenr, one well-known 'peculator having backed him to win 2,000 f. ; but before the lawn was cleared 7 to 1 wee the highest offer. °olden Pledge met with some support at 9 to 1, but at half a point more even the whiner of the Ebor Hamlicap would have had a host of friends.

The very marked decrease in the number of volunteers at the county gathering this year, compared with the two previous years, has been the subject of much discus- Moo. It is probably the result of many causes The distress in this district undoubtedly prevents many of the rank and file of our volunteer regiments from travelling to Altar (which .is almost in the extreme south-western corner of the county), and remaining there, or in the mighbouring towns of Southport or Liverpool, for • week. If a liner number of small mixes had been offered, more competitors might have been iodooed to some, as a greater number would thus bane been enabled at least to have paid their expenses in addition to win ning the honour of being counted among the grizemed. In this respect, therefore, the announcement made by Mr. Blaisdell, that the prizes next year will be more numerous is satisfactory. It is thought by some that the number of regimental mutest' continually taking place tends to diminish the number of attendants at the county gathering. Probably there is some truth in this; and yet it is in there regimental contests that the men qualify themselves for entering upon • wider field. Again, it has been suggested that more visitors from other counties would be seen if Fins were offered to all comers with Enfield rifles. For all the geoe.al purposed of the volunteer corps, each contests would be more practically useful, and far more interesting luau the shooting matches with small bores. There are two other causes, however, which affect the attendance at Altar. It is feared that the interest in the volunteer movement in Lracashire is diminishing, and the feet that each year the number of competitors at Altair has been lose than in the preceding year, seems to warned such • conclusion. The other matter to which we refer is the repeated bolding of the annual meeting of the county association at Alta. We canoot nada/Mod how the council can do this in the face of the following, which is published as one of the rules of the association : “There shall be ogle meeting in each year for nfiepreetioe, to be held successively in different parte of the county, the gismo( such meeting to be fixed by the council, at which prism will be given oat of the foods of the associatioo fur the bent practice of artillery, rifles, and cerbisee." It is an iejnetioe to the great UAW of the volunteers of Lanceehire, to regain them to amemble year of ter year on • spot which is conveniently miceesible by the collateral of Liver pool. We hope that the meeting of the aasociatioe has hese bold at Altar for the last time for some years ;.and that next year, the council, in obedience to the rule of the association, will select a piece of meeting in some other loco lap—Manchester Guardian. COMMERCIAL RELATIONS BETWEEN ENGLAND AND AUSTRIA. A special meeting of the Newcastle-on-Tyne and Gateshead Chamber of Commerce was bald at the Goad hall of the former town on Saturday—the president, Mr. S. A. BrAutioor„ ALP., in the chair—to prompt a memorial ot the premot commercial relation* biases* Begleod and Austria to the Chevalier Schaeffer, Austrian mead in LaMar, and Cosesiller Psrmeetier • member of a com mission new sitting is Vienna, far invesiigatiog the state at the Austrian tariff with respect to foreign cousin's, who bad bees delegated officially by the t =trim' ftlioieter of Commerce to attend the Newcastle means( of the British Association.

Dm chamber makes this suggestion with great coufideoes, as experience has shown that the mspecave countries which have already removed the impediment caused by this system have been considerably and reciprocally bees- Sted. the greater opportunities which' would thus be afforded for interchange of opinion would greatly tend to 'a creage the commercial intercourse which must be based on a perfect knowledge of the products of each eouutry, and a careful ioquiry as to which can most advantageously form the subject of exchange. It has always been found that personal investigation was hidispeomble to the came of commercial progress, oo which the wealth and power of every country must ultimately depend. Should year visit bring about an increase of commerce between our respective nations by the removal of the harrier, which have hitherto preveuted an exchange of commodities. we vesture to pre. diet a ith confidence that the prosperity of Austria would be matetially promoted." Chevalier Schaeffer sod Chevalier Parmeotier acknow ledged in heartfelt terms their sense of the filmy acts of kindness they had met with in this country, and exesued the pleasure Austria would have in repaying , at h er own International Exhibition of 1866, to Eogliab exhibitors the kindoess displayed to Austrian exhibitors at Knightsbridge mid Kensisgteo. Chevalier Schaeffer expressed his opinion that Austria was about to take ber first step in the direction of fres trade and commercial reform. ALARMING AOCIDZNT AT PAIYUCT.—An accident by which two inee bare lost their limn, and mother, it is feared, has been fatally injured , occurred os Thursday morning at the High Church. That building is at present being re-slated, sad the men, as must were working upon a scaffold. composed of three ;looks, supported upon needles projecting through the roof immediately above the top of the wall. About eight o'clock in the morning there were three men sod a quantity of slates upon the scaffold or Krim of planks at the west end of the back of the climb, when, it is said, another man went upon the same scaffold with a kip, on which one of the needles broke, the scaffolding slid doers, and three of the men wereprecipitated hest foremost to the ground, from a height of about 32 feet. The fourth mao, who au farthest from the piece at which the needle gave war, caught hold of the remaining needle, and for tunately escaped without injury. It was sadly differeet with the others, all of whom were found to be very 'mutely injured. They were removed as carefully and expe ditiously as possible to the Infirmary, whereas@ of them died about 10, and soother about two o'clock, and it is still quite socerteiu whether the third may recover. The enfortamt• meg were slaters is the employment of Bailie Gillespie, sad all belonged to the Paisley Fire /3dgada. Their panne and places of residence were u follow :—Henry Hamilton, 15.

NARROW ESCAPE OF TWO LADIES MOM DROWN lio.—On Thursday morning, about 9 o'clock, Mn. Laing, of Hetrick, and her daughter, a young lady of about eighteen, while bathing at Praetor:mane, where they have been residisg for some titre, bad a very Darrow escape from drowning. They had gone out with their servast to bathe together at the rocks opposite Mr. dlexaoder's B.lt-pans, and were apparently enjoying themselves in the water, holding each other's heeds and docking up sod dews. when they ell et mice discovered they were getting beyond depth, and, by the receding tide, were losing their ground. The serv a nt, wh o was mated os the rocks , almost at the same moment with the bathers discovered their critical position. and immediately gave the tierce. No help, however, was at band, and the no • fortunate ladies, clasped in each other's arms, or struggliog to reach the rooks, seemed likely to fell an immediate prey to the 'stem who the cries of the deberweesen and young lade on the shore arrested the attestion of Mr. Riehard Jobs mos, clerk in the employment of Mr. Millis, of the soap weeks, Prestoopass.

A. dettliffe read • very interesting paper on the prevention of railway saddest. and boiler exploiting*, and on the means of communicating with the guard and engine driver of trains in oases of murderous and other criminal essaults in railway carriages. He com menced be stating that the prevention of steam-boiler explosions, railway collisions, he., was within the power of every cot having charge of a boiler or driving as engine by adopting • system invented by M. Auguste *chard, a French civil engineer of great emineoee. That system bad been tested in Francs by M. Dusonich, segieeer-inmkief of mime, and inspector-general of the Paris, Lyons, and Mediterrenese Railways. sod be declared et owe the facility and efficacy of its spoliation. The present mesa of signalling between guard end driver were totally 'Dell/tient, ad tient , the power to stop a train at full ispried was equally inadequate to that required. At pre sent a Maio at full speed could at be stopped under 1,600 yards, which being further than the sight would cane to wee an obstacle on the lie*, it could sot by any possibility avoid the danger. The invention referred to was termed an "electrical embrayage," sad could be applied to any carriages es any railway. By means of this apparatus any engine driver could with an electrical insulator in the shape of • small door batch dates or slacken all the breaks of • train at once, and is lees time than it now took to sound the alarm whistle. This was effected by cutting off the voltsie current, which went the whole length of the train, and which immediately released the breaks, and allowed them to set upon the wheels and atop the train. A train could thus be stopped et 400 or 5110 yards. The remit of that action was manifested in another and very important phase of railway ea:ideate Is the event of couplings breaking, the partial running off the line of train., Sr., Re.. the electric wire became dram acted or broken, and the breaks instantly acted automati cally, and stopped the train. The apparatus also contained an alarm bell, which was placed within the reach of every functionary on the trio, besides which the travel lers themselves might, in cam of imminent danger, pro duce that energetic warning. lo order to prevent abuse the interrupters at their had in each earopartmeet were one. strutted so that what, once they had been handled or worked, three results followed :—Firet, that it would not be possible for the travellers to replace them to their ordinary positing; secondly, that the alarm would eontinue to ring until the complete stoppage of the train ; and thirdly, that • signal would be displayed outwardly no each side of the carriage, thus showing to the fnactionaries the pert of the Mein whence Mend the rimsl of darer. Assintance might Utah. promptly rendered, and, in case of the signal being tampered with, or used without case, the armee en °feeding might be known and punished with sofa ) • severity to prevent such infractions la future.

SEDITIOUS ORGANISATIONS IN IRELAND. The Belfast News Letkr makes the following observations :—" Seditious mgannations have always • same as well as a local habitation. In 1798 the rebels were united Irishmen. lo 1803, they were eons of free dom or what not. In 1848 they were young Inlanders. Five years ago they were P hcenix mem, and to day they are Fenian. and sons of St. Patrick. The objects and orpnuation of the Fenian brotherhood we have already fully explaieed ; and although we do not believe that it numbers anything like 80,000 men, that the American brethren smart have been alm:idy drilled and armed in Ireland, there are not wanting indications that the coespireey is wide-apreed, and has many adherents. The Fenian," it seems, are to hold themselves in readiness for anything that may tura up. A war with France, now perhaps the most improbable event that 01111 be imagined, or, what is far more likely, a war with America, is what they are to look out for with anxiety. The herald that makes proclamation that America and England are foes will, without knowing it, call the Fe- DM= to arum— not to protect, but to assail their country. Vast numbers of Irishmen have gone to America, and the belief is entertained by the ignorant that they will ate day come heck with ta vengeance , as the Nation wee **MS. sanely rid. Go amongst the peasantry of the south and west, tend even of the districts adjacent to the metropolitan county. and, if yon have their confidence, you will dis cover that sooner or later they expect that • French or American war will involve England in that difficulty whisk in to be Ireland's opportunity. It is a sort of traditkm among the people that the French will noose day come and liberate Ireland. They never dream of asking them mine what liberty it ia they require and have not obtained ; what grievance they gram under and mow* have lightened or removed by ImUmate means ; or what aomesioa of freedom would follow upon • French occupa tion of their Emerald Isle. The fact that such • tradition exists will not be denied by any one who is familiarly ac quainted with the peasantry ; sad within them twelve or fifteen years there hat been superadded to it a hazy notion that the mass of the Irish emigrants would at the first opportunity come back to their country, sot to amend hare under Entish rule the evening of their days, bat to drive the Saxon for ever from the shake of Ireland. That such feelings exist is amazing ; but when we know that teas of thalami& of the peasantry solemnly attribute the famine of 1848-7 to the coonexion of England and Ireland, we may well believe anything of the ignorance and trejadiees of scab men. Now it is became of this ignorance sad this prejudice that we say the government should at ones step in and check any open display of seditious feeling.

Mr. Motteram *aid that belting and fightiog were two very different thine, and inquired upon which the prosecution meant to proceed.

He said that at lulf.past nine o'clock ma the night of ffatur. day, the 15th ult., be went, with two other odium, to the defendant's house, and on proceeding upstairs, he found, is what was apparently a club room, from 100 to 150 per ' toes sasembled.

On the appearance of witness and the other officers. some hesitation was mani fested as to commencing proceedings, bat after a little time the defendant Charley cried out, " Bring them in ; all right lads." Twenty rate were then put into the pit, and a dog was lest after them ; he worried about fifteen of them, and, appearing exhausted, he was takes out for a isio-t space, when he was again turned is, and finished the remainder of the vermin.

Mr. Travis remarked that in the present case there was the worrying of the dog by the rate. Mr. Motteram—Well alter the summons, then, to the baiting of the dog, if you like. Mr. Travis said there was a greet distinction between a quarry and the room of a public-house, to which from coos to two hundred people were assembled. The beech announced that they considered the charge had been clearly proved, and indicted a hoe of lia, with the meta, and in default of payment, directed a distress warrant to be issued. Charges against a number of spectators for aiding sad abetting the rat-baiting were then heard, and the magistrates ordered them to pay a fine of W. each and the expires, or be imprisoned for twenty-one days with hard labour. SERIOUS CARRIAGE ACCIDENT AT SHEFFIELD.— A very alarming accident occurred about eight o'clock on Sunday evening. It appear. that Mr. Patrick Heine, egg and butter dealer. of Northetreet, and a female named Barge were returning into the town in a gig 'belonging to Mr. Hama. The bone took fright, it is said, at a lamp in Highlields, and dashed down the bill towards the town at a fearful pace. Unfortunately Mr. Haire could not keep it in the road, and it swerved at the bottom of Lsoldowne.road, and run against a lamp-post. The col lision was extremely violent, and the effects most disas trous. The occupants of the gig were thrown out with great violence, and the female bad her collar boss broken and received serious injuries to the bead. She was promptly satiated by persons who witoeesed the accident. Mr. Bailie had pitched upon his bead, which wee very severely con tueed,-and it was feared that his skull was fractured. After the collision with the lamp-post the horse dragged itself clear, and promoded with unabated speed up the Moor. Opposite the Mail Inn a roan named Hcathode was struck and knocked down. He was injured on the heed so seriously that a fatal remit was apprehended by many persons, and he was at once remov e d to the Public Hospital. The bores was non afterwards stopped, but the gig was completely smashed. —3Aejleld Independent. SINGULAR DROWNING CAER.-00 felendely last, an inquest was held before Mr. C. J.

The weather of the week has been of a moat unfavourable character, . red the northern harvest has been greatly interfered with ; while it is feared that a consider able quantity of corn is yet abroad in various counties throughout the United Kingdom. It may be that two thirds of the wheat have been secured, but the remainder threatens to be much injured by sprouting, and little of a.ich a simple will be fit for thrashing. It has frequertly happened that when the southern harvest has 'bees almost entirely secured, the northern harvest has not. and after so lug • spell of firm weather it was reasonable to expect Monday proved a breezy day, but the night was wet. Heavy rain was experienced on Monday in various parts of the couotry. Tuesday tureen out finer. Our advice, run thus:—" Liver pool : " The a either has continued very wet, stormy, and unsettled in all parts of the kingdom, and the harvest, though riot as yet materially prejudiced, has suffered core siderable interruption in the northern counties ; that in the south, though much has yet to be carried, may be pronoueoed safe, and the wheat crop as flee, abundant. and heavy as has been gathered for many year. ; still, utility is felt for the impoi taut districts outstanding." From Newoutle on the same day it was stated :—"Since last Tuesday a great deal of rain has fallco, which has greatly interfered with harvest operations. 10-day_ is fair, but stall un settled looking ; wind, N.

Wed. neeihiy opened very doubtfully, with slight rain , o the rooming, and the afternoon was very wet—barometer 29.80 in., thermometer 62 deg. ; wind S . S.W. The account s from the North Siding of Yorkshire ware very unfavour able, and particularly so in the neighbourhood of Maltam where farmers reproieuted their corn to be sprouting, and provtieted by the heavy rains. In Nottieghamabire, on that day, it was state " The weatl,er during the past weak has been unsettled, and there Lae been • heavy fall of raio, which has interfered with the prosecution of har vest operations. A great deal of grain has already been secured is fine cauditimi, _mid the quality is excellent. There will be a huge yield of wheat in this neighbour. bond. Barley and oats are good. Beans irregular." Here, Thursday was favourable all day, but with alight rain at 5 p.m., and a very wet night. On that day our advice. were as under : " Suffolk—" The close of harvest has been interrupted by trumpet heavy showers, so that there is yet some barley unsecured.' From Leoushire our women' were very gloomy. They state " The old adage says, ' There's teeny • slip between the cup sad the lip ;' and never was it niers verified with respect to this year's harvest in the north sod midland counties.

THE GALWAY PACKET SINVICIL —A telegram has been received announcing that the Hibernia, the find steamer of the Royal Atlantic Mail Company, which left Galway on the 18th ult., had arrived safely at St. John's ox the 26th. The first voyage has not been in point of time as satisfactory as might have bees expected, or as under ordi nary circumstances would be required. By the @thereat terms of the oositrect the maser should have been made in six days, instead of eight. We think, however, there is an adequate explanatiou of the delay in the terrific hurries,. which is reported to have rag il in the Atlantic. The Great Batters, which sailed from Cork at the mine time, exped• sated the force of it. A brig in the Coiled States service was comity lost, with all hands, except ooe man • and several other digester, occurred on the American coLt.— Dublin Ezpreu. TEE NEW ROUYN TO WALE4.—Tbe Bristol and South Wales Union Railway is to be opened this (Tuesday) morning. The Western Daily Press observes that it might have been *peeled elegies days ago but for the delay seed ' leasly interposed by the Beard of Tiede. Of course some people will suppose the delay has enabled the inspector to use the line again and prooonace it safe for the public to travel upon. This is a mistake. The inspector has not been near it again ; he is absent is Scotland ; but on Saturday the secretary (Mr. Bruton) was favoured with a telegrm, to the effect that be bad advised the Board of Trade to " ra re-open" the line without further inspection. It is a pity it should have required eleven asp to arrive at this coaclatioa.
