The business of the thirty-fourth annual gather ing of the members of this association commenced in this city to-day, with every prospect of an interesting and (in a financial sense) a good meeting. The city is already pretty well filled, although the general business dote not com mence till this evening. No doubt the liberality of the railway company, in granting tickets to the members at single fare, will have its effect in increasing the attendance. The general committee met to-day io the Guildhall, Sir W. ARMSTRONG, the president for the past year, in the chair. There were also present the Mayor of B►th (Mr. Jerome March), Lord Wrotteeley. Sir Roderick Murchison, Sir Charles Lyon, Professor Phillips, Mr. John Crawford, Mr, Tits, M.P., Mr. Francis Galion, Mr. Cayloy, Mr. Gusiott, Mr. Deubeny, Mr. Spottiewoode, The minutes of the meeting of the association held Let year at Newcastle-on-Tyne baring been read and confirmed, Sir R. MURCHISON moved that the Earl of Cork and Ossory, u lord-lieutenant of the county, in SUCCOUIOII to Lord Portman, who had resigned the office, be elected one of the viosproudenta of the association. The motion was at once agreed to, as was also one electing the Very Rev, the Dean of Hereford and the Worshipful the Mayor of Bath to the same honour. The report of the camel!, to the effect, that the report of the Kew committee would be laid before the general com mittee on Monday ; that the council bad added to the list of coereepooding members the names of Dr. Torell, Dr. Boys Ballot, M. dee Cloiseanz, and Professor Adolph Steen ; that they bad received invitations to hold the nest meeting of the association at Birmingham, and smother to bold it at Nottingham ; and that an invitation had also been received from Dundee for the year 1867 .was read and approved. The Treasurer's report was also adopted. It stated that the income of the emaciation during the past year was 4.5051. Os. 11d., and that there was a balance in had of 36.11. 17s. sd. _ _ Lord %torn:Bur then read the report of the Parhamm ier, Committee, as follows :—" The Dukes of Devonshire and Argyll, the Earls of Harrowby and Enniskillen, and Sir John Pakisgton, have vacated their seats, bat your commit tee reoommeod their reelection. Ycor committee recom mead that the vacancy in the House of Commons hat be supplied by the election of Mr. Catches. Your committee suggest that they should be permitted to p o mpom for election members of either House of Parliament, is addition to the 13 members now constituting their committee, whenever such addition may appear desirable. These additional members might be considered as supernumerary, and soy vacancy in the supernumerary list supplied, or not, as may be thought expedient, when the vacancy occurs. Your committee also recommend that a resolution parsed at Liverpool in 18S4 be rescinded, and the following sub stituted : That any member of the parliamentary com mittee who shall not attend any one of four consecutive meetings of that committee shall be considered as having resigned, but shell be eligible for re-election. No subject was referred to your committee at Newcastle, but several of ita members have supported, or signified their intension to support, the valuable seggesaioa of the Royal Commis sioners, that the study of natural science should be intro duced into certain public schools, and likewise the bill for legalising the use of the metric system of weights and mea sures. I o thus acting, the committee conceive that they are properly fulfilling the important duty imposed upon them of .watchkite over the interests of science.' " wee brief, if estimated by the ordinary roles of geological classilleation. The glacial period was, in fact, a mere epi sode in one of the greet epochs of the earth's history ; for the inhabitants of the land, and SW, before and after the greed development of snow sad ice, were nearly the same. As yet we have no satisfactory proof that man existed in Europe or elsewhere during the period of extreme cold ; but oar investigations on this head are still in their infancy. In as early portion of the postglacial period it bee been miser tabled that man flourished in Europe ; and in tracing the signs of his existence, from the historical ages to throe im mediately anteoedeat, and so backward into more ancient times, we gradually approach a diesimila . r geographical state of things, when the climate was colder, and when the configuration of the surface departed considerably from that which now prevails. Archaeologists are satiated that in central Europe the age of bronze weapons preceded the Boman invasion of Switzer land; and prior to the Swim-lake dwellings of the bronze age were those is which stone weapons alone were used. The Danish kitchen-middens seem to have been of about the same date ; but what M. Lartet has called the reindeer pitied of the South of France was probably anterior, and ooneected with a somewhat colder climate. Of still higher antiquity was that age of ruder implements of stone such as were buried in the thivisaile drift of Amiens and Abbe , vine, and which were mingled in the name gravel with the bones of extinct quadruped*, sub en the elephant, rid , noceros, bear, tiger, and hyena. Between the present era and that of thine earliest votive yet discovered of our race, ' valleys have been deepened and widened, the course of sub tumbril rivers which one flowed through caverns has been changed, and many species of wild quadrupeds have dis appeared. The bed of the sea, moreover, has in the same ages been lifted up, in many places hundreds of feet, above its former level, and the outlines of many • coast entirely altered. MM. de Verneuil and Louis Lartet have recently found near Madrid fossil teeth of the African elephant, in old valley-drift, containing dint implements of the same antique type as those of Amines and Abbeville. Proof of the same elephant having inhabited Sicily in the l'astpliocene land probably within the Human period had previously been brought to light by Boren Alice, during his exploration of the bone-caves of Palermo. We have now, therefore, evi dence of man having omexisted in Europe with three spe cies of elephant, two of them extinct (namely, the mam moth and the "Isola@ antiques), and the third the same as that which still survives in Africa. As to the first of these—the mammoth—l am aware that some writers contend that it could not have died out many tens of thousands of years before our time, because its flesh his been found preserved in ice, in Siberia, in so fresh a state as to serve as food for dogs, bears, and solve.; bat this ar gument seems to me fallacious. Middendorf, in 1843, after digging through some thickness of frozen soil in Siberia. came down upon an icy mass, in which the carcase of • mammoth was imbedded, so perfect that, among other parts. the pupil of its eye was taken out, and ia now preserved in the Museum of Moscow. No one will deny that this ele phant had lain for several thousand years is its icy envelope; and if it had been left undisturbed, and the cold had gone en increasing, for myriads of centuries, we might res. suably expect that the frozen flesh might cootioue undecayed until • second glacial period had passed away. When speculations on the loos series of events which occurred in the glacial and postglacial periods are indulged in, the imagination is apt to take alarm at the immensity of the time required to interpret the monuments of these ages. all referable to the era of existing species. In order to abridge the number of centuries which would otherwise be indispensable, a disposition is shown by many to magnify I the rate of change in prehistoric times, by investing the roses which have modified the animate and inani mate workl with extraordinary and excessive energy. It is related of • great Irish orator of our day, that when he was about to contribute somewhat pmeimo , Moody towards • public charity, he was persuaded by a friend to make • more Ebert' donation. In doing so he apologized for his first apparent want of generosity, by saying that his early life had been • content struggle with scanty means, and that " they who are born to afilo eau cannot easily imagine how long • time it takes to get the chill of poverty out of one's bones." la like manner, we of the living generation, when called upon to Luke grants of thousands of centuries in order to explain the events of what bi called the modern period, shrink natu rally at first from making what seems so lavish an expeodi titre of past time. Throughout our early ednoation we have been accustomed to such strict economy in all that relates to the chronology of the earth and its inhabitants in remote ages, so fettered have we been by old traditional beliefs, that even when our reason is convinced, and we are per suaded that we ought to make more liberal grants of time to the geologist, we feel how bard it is to get the chill of poverty out of our Woes. I will now briefly allude, in conclusion, to two points on which • gradual change of opinion has been taking place among geologists of late years. First, as to whether there has been a continu ous succession of events in the organic and inorganic worlds, uninterrupted by violent and general catastrophes ; and secondly, whether clear evidence can be obtained of a period antecedent to the creation of organic beings on the earth. I am old enough to remember when geologists dogmatised on both these questions in • manner very different from that in which they would now venture to indulge. I believe that by far the greater number now incline to opposite views from those which were once most commonly entertained. On the first point it is worthy of remark that although a belief in sudden and general °mandato= has been losing ground, as also the doctrine of abrupt transitions from one set of species of animals and plants to soother of • very different type, yet the whole series of the recorda which have boon handed down to us are now more than ever re garded as fragmentary. They ought to be looked upon as more perfect, because) numerous pipaniave bees filled up, and in the formations newly intercalated in the series we have found many miming links and venous intermediate gradations between the nearest allied forms previously known in the animal and vegetable worlds. Yet the whole body of monuments which we are endeavouring to decipher appears more defective than before. For my own part, I agree with Mr. Darwin in considering them as • mere frac the of those which have once existed, while no approach to perfect series was ever formed originally, it having never been part of the plan of Nature to leave • complete record of all her works and operations for the enlightenment of rational beings who might study them in at tor-ages. In refs. TODOI to the other great question, or the earliest data of vital phenomena on this planet, the late discoveries is Canada have at least demonstrated that certain theories founded in Europe on mere negative seldom* were altogether delusive. In the course of • geological survey, carried on render the able direction of Sir William E. Logan, it has been shown that northward of the river St. Lemmas there is • vast scrim of stratified and crystalline rocks of gneiss, mire schist, quartzite, and limestone, about 40,000 feet in thick- PPM, which have been called Laurentian. They are more ancient than the eldest fossiliferous strata of Europe, or those to which the term primordial had been rashly assigned. In the first pleas, the newest part of this great crystalline aeries is uncoeforemble to the ancient (*Noah ' fermi or so-called primordial rocks which overlie it ; so that it mat have undergone disturbing movements before the latter or primordial set were formed. Then again the older half of the Laureutian series is vermiform.- ble to the newer portion of the mine. It is in this lowest and most ancient system of crystalline strata that a lime• stone, about • thousand feet thick, has bees observed, containing organic remains. These fossils have been era ' mined by Dr. Dawson, of Montreal, and he has detected in them, by aid of the microscope. the distinct structure Of • large swim of rhizopod. Fine specimens al this fossil, called mown Canada's', have bees brought to Bath by Sir Willie= Logan, to be exhibited to the members of the associatioo. We have every reason to nontose that the rocks in which these animal remains are iocloded are of as old • date as any of the formations named azoic in Europe, if not older, so that they preceded in date rooks once sup posed to have been formed before any organic Wimp had been created. But J will not venture on speeralatioss sans epeoting "the signs of • begieniug," or "the prospects of as end," of our terrestrial system—that wide ocean of scientific conjecture on which so many theorists before my time have suffered shipwreck. Without trespassing longer on your time, I will conclude by expressiag to you any thanks for the hamar you have dime me in eking me to pro ids over this meeting. I have every memos to hope, from the many members mad dietiagnimbed stemless when I already see assembled here, that It will not be Werke ia Utmost to any at the ptherhip which have preceded tit The noble lord am moved the adoption of the report, which was unanimously approved of. The appointment of the presidents, vice-presidents, and *oersteds§ of the several sections and sub-sections was then wade. The evening meeting was held in the Theatre, which was crowded. Sir W. Armstrong briefl► introduced Sir C. Lysli, the new president, and vacated the chair. Sir C, Lyell thee took the chair, and delivered the inaugural ad dress. The greater part of this env referred to the Bath waters. After touching very briefly on the history of theme renowned springs, the hon. baronet launched at ones into the geological theories of their origin, and the geological phenomena to which such agencies are believed to contri bute. He said that the yearly discharge of solid matter t►rough the springs at Bath. which are not remarkable for the quantity of their mineral contents, would form a amass column nine feet in diameter and 140 feet io height. These ingredients Sr Charles supposes to have bees ab sorbed, originally, by rain water, highly charged with atmospheric sir, filtering downwards through rents or porous rocks "till it encounter some mans of heated matter, by which it is converted into steam, sad then driven upwards through a fissure." The immense quantity of nitrogen gas evolved by most hot springs as well as from volcanoes during eruption is attributed to the de. composition of the atmospheric air. Their locality must, of course, be determined, like that of other springs, by faults or fractures in the earth's crust ; but assuming them to spout from a depth great enough to account for their tempe rature, the shaft which now envoys them to the upper air may have required whole ages to construct Rad. Not that Sir Charles is disposed to credit the Rich springs with any very high antiquity. Though they are among the most ancient, his torically speaking, of which we have any mooed, and may almost rank with Caftan, Arethusa, and Thermopylae, though their discovery is traced to a period prior to that in which the Romans surrounded them with temples. and beautified the new city with the imperishable monuments of their domisios during as many centuries as have elapsed nom the discovery of America, Sr Charles pronounces them, on the whole, to be modern in the extreme—mere things of yesterday, compared with the vast cycles of the geological calendar. In tracing the effects of such bodies of hot water permeating the bowels of the earth, Sir Charles borrows illustrations from a spring discovered 2, ►ears ago, but never before described, near Redruth, in Cornwall. This spring, which rime through a lode in Wheal Clifford Cop per Mine, is hardly less copious and somewhat hotter than those at Bath, though it differs materially in its analysis, and particularly in the proportions of those subtle elements, recentl► identified by means of the solar spectrum, to which the efficacy of mineral waters may, for aught we know, he partly due. Is spite of some facts which seem to point the other way, Sir Cherie* believes in a " relatiooship between the action of thermal water sod the filling of rents with metallic ores"—between hot springs and mines. The arguments by which he defends this conclusion Sr. too elaborate to be stated summarily ; but the doctrine seems to be that although the springs are generally barren of mitellic bodies, it is because they have parted with them in the course of their swept, and precipitated them in veins ou the walls of their &anode. Another function ascribed to "hydro-thermal" processes is the metamorphism of midi meetaryrocks. The favourite ratio° of geologists used to be that such rocks had been crystallised after fusion by the appli cation of beat so fierce and intense as to stagger even the scientific imagination. Sir Charles states that the "re- I arrangemeot of particles need not have been brought about thus "in the dry way," bat may have beim pro duced "in the wet way," b► • less raging subterranean furnace, aided by water. This opinion is supported by observations on the Homan aqueducts at Pleenbieres, which show that hot mioersl springs constantly dropping cie various kinds of stone may affect chemical changes never before suspected. After referring at some length to the prolable causes of the refrigeration of Central Europa during the glacial epoch, Sir Charles connived :—The more we study and comprehend the geographical changes of the glacial period, and the migrations of animals and plants to which it gave rise, the higher our conceptions are raised of the duration of that subdivision of time, which, though vest when awasweivi by the sacamica of mall anapdsed la* so fax as it will extend, be applied lo.payraent of the mm due on allotment. - - Copies of the Report of the Credit Feeder t Limited) and the eft‘dit Slotdßef ,Landted), shows rdorred to, with prospectuses of this Company, may he bud on application to the bankers, solicitors, stockbrokers, or the secretary.

Add 'dotal.] Sir Charles Lyell was cordially cheered at the various palate of his address. The Mayor of BATH, in an eloquent speech, proposed • vote of thanks to Sir Charles Lyell for his instructive and admirable address. It was Dot aseemarr that he should say how gratefully they had all listened to the vaned results of long experience, of extensive travel, of accurate observation, of genial communication with other minds, of quiet, truth-loving, impartial thought. (Chews.) But. after all. it should be remembered that this gathering, large as it was, was but • email part of the number by whom the address would be appreciated; but speaking for) his fellow-citizens, be offered Sir Charles their warmest thanks for so gracefully introducing as er fit subject for the consideration of the meeting the geolo gical phenomena of Altair own mineral waters. Ile begged to thank thedistinguithed mambas of;the association who bad honoured Bath with their presence, and especially re ferred to the pumice of the American minister as a proof of the friendly feeling between the two countries. Sir RODER/CK MURCHLSON said—Ladies and gentlemen, I rise with sincere gratification to second the motion which has been so ably brought to your notice by the mayor of Bath. When at our last meeting at Newcastle I had the gratification of being allowed to move that the British Association should this year mumble at Bath, a city with which I have been oonouted on away 0001601111 from my boyhood —a period of sixty years—l can truly say that my gratification was vastly enhanced by the foreknowledge that if my proposal were adopted we should not only meet at a phia singularly attractive to ell geologists, but that we should have at our bead a man admirably qualified to do full justice to the science of geology and physical geo graphy, to the cultivation of which I have devoted my life. No person, perhaps, now present has bed so many oppor. trinities as myself of estimating the influence which Sir Charles Lyell has exercised in the advancement of my favourite sciences, as myself. Nearly 40 yens have elapsed since I succeeded him ea secretary to the Geological So- ciety, and so far back as the year 1828 we made our first joint excursion together among the volcanoes of Auvergne, the south of France, and north of Italy, and even then we published together certain memoirs. It was during that tour that my colleague projected opal a sound basis of natural history the publi cation of those principles of geology which have justly procured for him so high a reputation in all civilised countries, and in virtue of which and his other valuable works our Sovereign has justly deemed him worthy to re ceive an additional honour of the crown. Among the topics he has so dexterously handled this evening, no one has made • deeper impression on me than the manner in which he ha. accounted for the origin of the Bath waters. In doing so he rude use of an expression which my geological friends who are acquainted with my opinion, that a former greater intensity of causation existed is geological times than in the present day, will fully understand how peculiarly grateful to me it was when I heard my eminent friend speak of the "great convulsion and fracture which took place on the crust of the earth at some former period," u connected with that powerful evolution of hot water to which Bath owes its celebrity. On this point therefore I rejoice to see that oos of the very few point. of theory on which we have differed is almost obliterated, for lam quite ready to abandon all claim to be anything more than a " worulsionist." There is only one other topic to which Sir Charles alluded at the conclusion of his address on which I am anxious to be under stood not to pin my faith entirely upon his theoretical news. Is. telling you that organic remains had been recently discovered in the oldest knows crystal. line rocks, and in warning you very properly agsiast the term " he added that he would not venture on speculations respecting the "signs of a beginning." Now, let me my that after many years of labour among my own Silurian rocks and those which lie beneath them in Britain and the continent of Europe, I came to the con clusion that during vastly long periods in the formation of the crust of the earth, i.e., in the lower Silurian forma tions, all animals (mid their Meal forms are in countless profusion) belonged to invertebrate life, end that in all these long periods no fishes with bask-bones swam in the thee seas. Descending into older rocks, and beneath the Silurian types of life, the closest researches have only revealed to us two or three species of • corals' body, and probably a few seaweeds. The discovery at present announced from still older rocks pertains to the acme low order of animals, and the very name of Romeo* Careedaue, or dawn of Canadian life, really seems tome to point to the earliest origin of animal life that we are ever likely to ob. hie. On such points as than discussion leads to the de valopmeot of truth, which is, I am sure, the sole object of my friend and myself ; and quite certain am I that now of oar discussion, have ever for oes moment weakened our frieodship, but, on the contrary, have tended to raise our esteem for each other. On this subject I cannot avoid reciting an anecdote, well known is the north of England, but perchance not current in this south-western region. A former Bishop of Durham, who lived to a great age, assured the celebrated Dr. Paley that, in all the years of their long married life, his lordship and his wife had never had a single disputa. Then replied the plainepokee and honest Paley, "Then I think, my lord, that your life must have bees very dull." Now if the occasional disputes on the points to which I have alluded have enlivened Sir Charles and myself, and have prevented us, I hope, from being dull. let me assure this assembly that in all the grand lading data on which the history of geology is bleed, we are com pletely united, and whether it be in recording the regular succession of formation from the oldest to the youngest, the progression from lower to higher types of life, the enormously long periods which must have elapsed is the formatioo of deposits and their frequent change into crystalline coedit:jou by that metamorphism which be has so skilfully expounded ; and, lastly, in the evidences be has brought together to show that man most have co-existed with some of the great fossil rrammalia—on all these subjects I hold the same opieioss aa himself ; and I have ventured to make this explanatioe, became it amens to me essential that the public should not run away with the idea that because geologists occasionally disagree on points of theory that there exists among them any divergence of opinion as to the great foundation stones on which their science has been reared. As one of the founders of this association, and its senior trustee, I have now only to add that at no one of our meetings have I listened to a more philosophic address than that which has been delivered, and hence I am confident that the nobility and gentry of the surrounding counties, as well as the residents and citizens of Bath, will return their hearty thanks to Sir Charles Lyell, and will feel as proud as my scieatifie friends around me and myself that we have sock an eminent president on this ocessios. The motion was put by the Earl of Coax and carried by acclamation. Sir C. LeiLL briefly acknowledgedithe compliment, after which the mooting Demisted. THE INTMINATIONAL RITLZ CONTRA?. The return match between No.l Company of Robin Hood Rifle' and the Milacy Connelly of Anguslists Volunteers tame off on Tuesday at the Nottingham butte. It will be re membered that the first match took place in September, 18111, when the Robin Hoods won by 7 poiota only. Their average more on that ocoasiou was 115.50. The shooting on Tuesday was under great drawbacks, the light being so bad that glasses had to be used at every range. The storm, however, ammo ted to 1.182 poiata. being an average of 118.2 per mac.

A S♦ILOR SHOT ♦T ♦ REGATTA. —At Sheldon regatta on Monday. a sailor, named Potter, of Budleigh Sphering, mounted the pier in frost of the signal gun. A man called Greenslade instantly geed the mason, not chest►- ing sores in frost of it, though Potter was only a few feet off at the time. The wadding mitered the unfortunate man's tight side, fracturing several of his ribs, and inflicting other internal injuries. Potter was instantly taken to the Crown and Anchor lon, and the wouod was dreamed by Mr. Brooks. @argue, sedated by several other medical men. It wen discovered that the injuries he bad received were of a fatal character, and his wife was immediately telegraphed for, in amordattos with his wishes.

A triumphal arch was erected, and national airs were played. An address was read by the clergyman of the pariah. The King of Denmark returned thanks on behalf of his royal son-in-law and daughter.

THE EMPRESS EUGENIE. (nom OUR OWN COBIBISPONDIM.) FRANKFORT, Bzre.l3. The presence of the Empress Eugenie in our neighbourhood has brought additional life to this town by the constant influx of visitors of rank on their way to Schwalbach. This will compensate our large hotel keepers somewhat for the bad season they have had, mostly by their own fault iu driving passengers away by exorbitant charges. The King of Prussia arrived on Saturday, and started on Sun day to Schwalbach, where he stopped with the Em-.• press for an hour and a half. The Einpress received him on the landing, and when be left she came to the balcony and nodded to him again. The Queen . of Holland paid, on the same day, a visit to the Empress, and the two illustrious ladies took a walk in the public promenades, and then Eugenie followed the Queen to her carriage when she left, and took by repeated kissing a most hearty fare well. The way being thus cleared by legiti macy, the Duchess of Nassau will now equally come to Schwalbach and stay there for a few days. People wonder whether other royal and ducal ladies will for the occasion so far master their old aristocratic feelings as to condescend to pay their civilities to the now legitimist Empress. Reports from Schwalbach state that the Empress Eugenie is by far the most popular guest of rank amongst the many they have had there this season ; she walks every morning near the springs, is always in good spirits and talking sans gene to the visitors • of course every respect is paid to her. A s soon as she came she ordered away all the gendarmes who had been placed in gala uniforms iu the promenades and near her residence. While many delicate people take the water of the spring by tubes, like sherry cobbler, the Empress takes hers like common people, and stated openly about tubes, "Je le trouve tree ennuyant." At 9 o'clock the Empress re turns for breakfast, takes her bath at 12, her dinner at 2 o'clock, then makes an excursion to Schlangenbad, Hohenstein, or some beautiful spot in the vicinity, and in the evening she returns to the springs ; at 8 o'clock she takes her tea, and at 10 everything is quiet in her house , night has set in • she lives, therefore, in the German i fashion. Though attired with great taste, she always appears in plain dress, without any jewellery, embroidery, or flying ribbons ; still old bodies think her " jupous exoessivemeut retrouss4s." On Sunday she went to mass in the catholic church, and she has on every occasion thanked people for the attention paid to her, and told the landlord "Noun sommes admirablement logda," and that she would come again in June next. All this proves what I have so often stated, that national animosities have happily died away in this country, and it re mains only with the French to keep the peace, and, whatever their form of government may be, to keep on the most friendly terms with their German neighbours. It was always only the bragging and the overbearanoe of the French press which led to retorts and disgusted the German people. The forbearance shown by France during the Danish quarrel has mainly induced the people to look to her now in the same friendly spirit as during the reign of Louis Philippe. . . By the eianity of the Empress the season at Wiesbaden continues to be brilliant, and numerous visitors fleck there to see the splendid car riages by which she came from Pan+ to that sta tion. The saloons were crowded last Sunday. I noticed the Princess Metternich leaning on the now indispensable walking-stick—by the bye, aa ugly thing, more adapted to the witches in Macbeth, and to the old nurse; in Shakespeare's plays, than to fashionable young ladies. The Prince and the Princess Metternich are residing now at their demesne of Johannisberg, about ten English miles from Schwslbach, on one of the most charming spots on the Rhine. It is currently re ported that tho Empress will stop there for some time after leaving Schwalbach, and that the Em peror will come than to see her home. I am glad to say that the gambling contractors do not make an extra harvest by the unexpected presence of so many foreigners. I noticed only small stakes ; still it is very probable that the large gamblers are so late in the season at the end of their means. A; the fatal period which Prussia has fixed for the seceders from the Zollverein to join it again (October') approaches, the Chambers of Commerce in these states are raising a cry of distress, and urge their governments to accede at once, as any inter ruption of the existing free intercourse will be utter ruin to them. There is no doubt these governments must submit to the nect.ssity, atter liaviug, by dynastic propensities for Austria, tried to overturn the whole commercial system on which the welfare of their people is morally based, sod it must be admitted that on this question Prussia was consis tently on the right aide. And of the seceders, two of them, Nassau and Darmstadt, will hate to pay the penalty to be only admitted again, after having done away with the Rhine tolls. which they yet raise, to the great annoyance and loss of shipping. The conferences upon the treaty of commerce be tween Austria and Prank' are about to be opened at Prague, and as both governments are now on good political terms, a satisfactory result way be ex- Au.
