Teomr-Fisturio.—Trout-fishing is • sport for the gods. Sportsmen wax eloquent upon the salmon. A battle royal with a salmon, such as I read of the other day, which lasted from 4 o'clock of the afternoon till 4 o'clock of the summer morning, when the monster was five feet in length, and must have weighed fifty pounds, if an ounce, is fit for Homer's muss. Oue does not like to scrutinise too dimly the blank feeling of dismay which the fisher must have ex perienced when, after the twelve hours'"tag of war," his line " came in loose," and the conviction flashed acme his mind that the monster was off. Was it worth his while to continue in this perplexed and imperfect world any longer? But, upon the whole, I cannot help regarding salmon-fish ing as vanity and vexation. You stagger about the river bank with a piece of elm, like the mast of • small schooner, iu your hands. The libour of whipping the water with that gigantic flail ia overwhelming. When you do hook a fish, it may be that you are in a measure repaid ; bat then you generally dos't. Troutdishing, os the contrary, is • pleasing and gentle excitement. You carry • light rod, which does not weary your arm—merely bringing the muscles agreeably into play ; and you occasionally succeed in getting something more than the " fiae rise " on which the salmouist harps.

It was announced that the mission of construct ing an administration had been entrusted to Signor San Martino, but this report has proved unfounded. It is now asserted that Signor Tolosano, Prefect of Turin, has been charged with the construction of the ministry, and that he has accepted the com mission. The names of the future ministers are not yet known. The Monarchic Nazionale of to-day expresses a desire that the new cabinet should be free from party passions, and able to conciliate the parlia mentary majonty. The Monarchic considers the occurrence of a period of truce desirable, for the purpose of appeasing public animosity. The Opinion publishes a further article in oppo mition to the scheme of a merely administrative cabinet. BERLIN, Die. 3. PRUSSIA. According to reliable information, the present envoy of Prussia at St. Petersburg, Count Goltz, has been appointed ambassador at Paris, and Count Redern, at present minister at Brussels, bas been nominated envoy at St. Petersburg. SPAIN. MADRID, Die. 2, Evan No. In to-day's sitting of the Chamber of Deputies, Senor Ballesseros was almost unanimously elected President ; the members of the opposition abstain ing from voting. The rumour that General Prim has given in his resignation is unfounded. FRANCE. PARIS, Dic. 3. Inundations of the Rhone have taken place, and caused great devastation at Marseilles and Avignon. AMERICA. LIVERPOOL, Dix. 3. The Liverpool, New York, and Philadelphia Steamship Company's screw steamer City of Balti more, Captain Kennedy, from New York on the 22nd ultimo, arrived at the bar of the Mersey about 3 o'clock this afternoon, and sent up her despatches, &c., by a tender. A Washington telegram received at New York says : The rumour is current that letters written by the Southern members of the Peace Convention to the Northern members will be published and c steusively circulated in the loyal States about the time of the meeting of Congress. These letters are said to contain a strong appeal for an armistice and a settlement of the difficulties upon the basis debated in the Convention. The New York Herald of the 22nd ult. contains the following : The rebels were still in possession of Fredericksburg, although its surrender was formally demanded by General Sumner yesterday, iu a summons conveyed to the mayor of the place under a flag of truce. General Sumner, in this communication, complained that the troops under his corm niaud had been fired upon from the city ; that the mills and factories were supplying aid to the rebels, and that the railroad. running from the city ware forwarding provision. to the rebel army. He declared that this most terminate, demanded the surrender of the city, and gave sixteen hours for the women, children, and the sick to be removed. The civic auteorities, io their interview with General Patrick, offered to remedy the evil as far as the firing upon the troops and the furnishing supplies to the rebel army was concerned. Bat they refused to surrender the city. and complained of the short time allowed fur the removal of the sick and the women and children. Up to eleven last night the question of giving more time before vaulting the city was under consideration, and yet undecided. It was rumoured yesterday that Stooewall Jackson wsa at Winchester, with the view of making another raid into Maryland, but the truth of the report appears to be doubt ful, as the condition of the river after the late rain renders the chance of crossing impossible. The estimate; for the expenses of the army for the en suing year Sr. set down at 428,000,000 dots. The requisitions upon the paymaster department, which are still unpaid, amount to 48,000,0110 dole. According to the reports of the Adjutant-General, the number of soldiers on the sick list at this moment amounts to one-sixth of the entire army in the service of the United States, viz., 106,000 men. Despatches from Cairo state that the main body of the Union army was still at Lagrange. Portions of the cavalry had advanced as far as Holly Springs, and returned. The Memphis BeUetitt of the 18th says that General Brag with 15,000 men arrived at Holly Springs on the 15th, that he was preparing to give Grant battle, and was to act in conjunction with Generals Price and Pemberton. The New Yolk Times publishes an editorial on the Times' response to the remonstrances of the New York Chamber of Commeroe concerning the pro ceedinp of the Alabama. It says : The act complained of was an English wrong, which the authorities ought to have prevented. If England was weak enough to get entangled in her own sophistry, every quibble was brushed away by the unqualified decision of the law officers of the crown that the preparation and sale of the Alabama for belligerent purposes were directly opposed to the Queen's proclamation. The London rinfa knows that this decision was accepted by the government, and that measures were taken ostensibly to pre vent the departure of the vessel. Argument is ueedlers on the American side, since the British authorities acknowledge the breach of neutrality. The Americans complain, not of the perversion of the law, but of its non-enforcement. It is not morally possible then that the chief newspaper of England should semouely ask, What has England to do wi th this! It u simply an impertinence, and so designed, yet it is a serious question. England may treat it as cavalierly as she pleases, but the matter is none the leas grave. All that is very important to us :if English men were wiser, they would make it more important to themselves. Though circumstances compel us to postpone the settlement for years, it will not materially affect matters. Americans have long memories. They are not apt, in foreign affair', to recognise soy statute of limitations. It is announoed that all the Federal gunboats have left Albemarle Sound, North Carolina, for James River. Rumours are current that the draft in New York State will be postponed until the meeting of Congress, in order to obtain an act declaring the draft under the present laws unjust. Another re port says that the draft is unnecessary, the required quota having been obtained. Resistance to the draft is expected in Milwaukie.

[Stamped, Id. Additional.] THE DISTRESS IN LANCASHIRE An important point was brought out at the weekly meeting of the central relief committee on Monday. It appears that • number of persons, very respectable, no doubt, but wholly irresponsible to any one, have opened subscription lists and depots for clothing, and have adver tised for donations. It is not alleged that, as yet, any in stance has occurred in which money or clothing received by such persons has not been honestly applied, but it is dear that the public has no check upon such persons. The public will do well to give its bounty through the Lord Mayer in London, or the central relief committee, of which Mr. M'Clure is the untiring hon. secretary, at Manchester ; or else through some public person—a mayor, magistrate, or clergymen, who should be expected to announce all receipt. in the public papers.

The ladies of the sub-committee are now actively engaged in redeeming article* of clothing out of pledge, first carefully inquiring into the circumstances of each applicant for relie f. It was also reported that Mr. Fuller, of Oxford-street, has been authorised by Mra.

THE CHIEF RABBI'S ADORERS TO THE JEWS.— "To the Jewish Community,—You are, doubtless, aware that many hundred' of thousands of our countrymen in the cotton manufacturing districts have, through no fault of their own, been thrown out of employment and plunged from a seine of comparative prosperity into extreme dis tress. Cold, emptily clad, and famine-stricken, they cower with their wives and children in their stripped and fifties' cottages. You have seen bow all classes and creeds, the mother-country and its colonies, are vieiog with each other to mitigate the deep and wide-spread misery ; how hem town to village, from far sod near, from th e highest to the lowest, the helping hand has been stretched forth. Shall we remain hehiod we, the offspring of Abraham ; we, whose calling it is to be com pmeionate and benevolent ; who, in the spirit of Joseph of old, ought to nourish and preserve those who are flesh of our flesh end bone of our bone, that they perish not through the famine? Shall we be deaf to the cry of &aguish which has reached our ears—deaf to the country's cry . Man ap peals to man, brother implores brother—shall they appeal to us in vain? You know, that we are commanded by our holy laws to love our neighbours as mulleins. Let, then, every one help his neichbmr and every one say to his brother, Re of good courage ! T.et us go forth to the help of the afflicted, to the help of those who pine in the wretchedness of poverty, bearing their heavy burden without murmuring, with out complaint. But especially ought we 'to draw out our soul to the hungry' at this season when we are solemnising the feast of glorious light and freedom, when the noble Maccabees delivered our forefathers from the hands of their oppressors. It is just two centuries. ago that we entered again this happy realm, and found shelter under the wing of its just and humane goverment. We have become attached to it by the ties of warm affection. We pray for the prosperity of our native land, and for peace within its walls ; but we have also higher duties to perform towards it. We must come to its aid io every emergency ; we must help to remove all misery from its midst, and labour zealously, that 'there be no complaining in its streets.' I therefore beseech you, beloved brethren, to mine forward is the proper spirit, with feeling hearts and helping heeds, to the meow of our afflicted fellow-men. Many of you have, no doubt, already contributed to their relief ; but these, I hope, will give a second and • third time. The win ter has set in , bringing to the poor famished operatives waiting sickness and vet severer suffering. Let us afford them • speedy and effectual relief ; let the assistance given be proportionate to the magnitude of the occasion. We truly cannot serve the Lord better than by showing mercy, and ' giving every one of us according to the blessing of the Lord our God, which He has given us. Rest insured that such as are kind to those who stand in need of kindness will be blessed by the Lord ; 'their light will rise in ob scurity, and their darkness be as the noonday ; they will earn • rich reward in the world which ie to come.—N.

Chief Rabbi on Tuesday, the 16th inst.; and a sermon will be delivered in the Branch Synagogue, Great Portland. street, by the Rev. Mr. Green, no the 20th inst. THE WARDS or CHIPPLEGATE WITHIN AND WlTHOUT.—Yesterday a meeting of the inhabitants of the wards of Cripplegate was held at Lady Holies' School-room, in &daces-street, for the purpose of raising subscriptions for the relief of the distressed ; Alderman Challis in the chair. A committee was appointed to obtain contributions from the inhabitant, either in immediate subscriptioes or weekly or monthly payments, The majority of the Liverpool tradesmen have dekrmined to devote to the relief at the distressed the amounts which they generally devote to Christmas boxes, and it is ex pe cted that a considerable sum will thus be raised. 4001. was collected in St. Bride's Church, Liverpool, on Sunday, after an earliest appeal from the Rev. W. IL Feline and in other churches large amounts were also collected. The wards of the town have been divided into districts, and to each district lady and gentlemen collectom have been appointed. The ladies express a determination to outvie the gentlemen in their exertions, but the gentle men retaliate by saying that the Wits shall have DO chance of rivalling them. DIFFICULTY OF GETTING WORKPEOPLE AT MAR• cinotrem—The following facts will show the difficulty of dealing with the distress now so univenally prevalent in the manufacturing districts, because it would appear that there is a danger of giving too much relief, so as to die courage people from taking employment when it be offered to them. Early last week • placard woe issued is Man cheater and Selford, of which the following is • copy " Hard silk winders and cleaners wanted. Apply at Hope field Silk Mill, Adelphi, Salfo-d." Although this placard has been out more than • week, it appears that they have ouly beau able to get adozen workpecple (girls) up to this time. They still want between 50 and 60, and have about 2,000 spindles idle for want of hands to attend to them. The silk trade, like the linen and worsted trade, appears to be improving to some ex tent, though it has not been much depressed, in con sequence of the great advance which has taken piece in the price of cotton fabrics. According to the returns of Captain Patio, published on Tuesday, the number of wnrkpeople belonging to silk mills oat of employment in Manchester is 2,397, whilst the number out of work in cotton mills Is 11,4014 and yet the owner of Flopefield silk mill, who is much premed by orders, is unable to get sufficie n t work. people to tend his spindles. Some light is thrown upon the case by the fact that • poor-law guardian of an adjoin ing union, hearing of this case, went to a family in Hulas, Manchester, whe-e he knew there were several girls who bad been employed in silk mills, and tried in vain to induce them to apply at Hopeteld Mill. The father of the girls replied that if they were to get the work it would only make • different* of • shilling per week in his favour, and they would have to go to work at the factory at six o'clock in the morning, whilst at the sewing-rooms they were only required to attend from 9 till 4 o'clock. He should not like them, therefore, to take the situations offered. A girl who has accepted work at the mill has spoken to the same effect. On being remon strated with about her work by the overlooker, she is reported to have mid, "I could do as well by going to • sewing-school, when I should have 3s. 4d. per week for three days work, besides having 3s. a week iu proveod (food)." We have heard of many eases of • similar kind in other tomes. THE MURDER AT NEWCARTLY.. —At the New castle anises, on Tuesday, the trial of the two fellows, Dixon and Miller, for the alleged murder of the old man Patrick Ragas, or, u he was more (soldierly known in his lifetime, "Needle Jack," occupied the greater portion of the day. Of the connection of the premien with the atrocious crime, which it will be remembered was committed in • place of public convenience at the High Crane, there could be no doubt, and but one defence was offered—that of the &bemire of " malice aforethought" from the minds of the perpetrators. Concurring in this view of the case, the jury returned • 'oxalic& of " manslaughter ;" and Mr. Justice Keating, after commenting in severe terms on the shocking and wanton character of the offence, sentenced t►e culprits to to years' penal servitude each.

The metal badge now wore by drivers to be abolished, it being no proof that the driver wearing it is the person duly licensed, and that in it. place • certifi cate containing the description of the person licensed be given to every driver on receiving his license, which be shall produce when called upon to do so. No driver to be deemed pl Om hire, mikes standing upon some place authorised by the Police Commissioner. That all special agreements between hirers and drivers be binding on both parties. That the distance of four miles from Charing.moss be measured by the road, instead of the radius. That children be charged for, as upon railways. That all packages be charged 2d. each. That all dogs car ried in or outside a cab be charged at the rate of 6d. That any driver proving his one before a magistrate shall receive compensation for himself and witnesses. That every driver shall receive notice of the unfitness of his cab or hone for public work before becoming liable to prosecution. That none but hirers be empowered to prosecute in any dispute between themselves and drivers. That • cheap power of appeal be granted from magisterial decisions. That when any hirer refuses to pay his fare, or make compensation for any damage to a oab, the driver to have the power to compel bim to go to the nearest station-house, where he shall deposit the amount of such fare, or give security, pre vious to going before the magistrate." Mr. Wise, a driver, moved the adoption of the report, which was ascended by Mr. W. ToweU, a driver. Mr. Wakelin, • driver, moved the adoption of a petition to the House of Commons. pray ing for a mrliamettary inquiry into the working of the pre sent Hackney Carriage Act, which was also agreed upon. It was also resolved that • deputation should wait upon members of the House of Commons, with the object of soli citing their support to a committee of inquiry ; and • per manent committee was appointed to carry on the agitation during the ensuing session of parliament. THE ENGLISH PRESS AND AMERICAN SLAVERY.— The following remarks are from the Debate of yesterday : "The Times publishes another of those letters it receives from Richmond, the capital of the Confederate states, and which are ' pervaded by some little partiality for the South,' as the journal honestly confesses. There can be no doubt that this is the case. The correspondent of the Tian informs us that the slaves 'hide away in the mashes to hinder themselves from becoming free,' and that they 'are ready to fight for slavery.' It is true that • little further on the writer, in the same correspondence, adds that hatred against the North has increased ever sines the Federal government has given rations ho fugitive slaves, and fed at its own expense 2,000 negroes at Harper's Ferry. Why did not these 2,000 negroes prefer to 'hide away in the marshes' rather than swept the liberty offered them by the Federal tunnies? The correspondent of the Times does not explain this, and we cannot undmiake to espial° it for him. But, if we may believe this writer, the love of the negroes for slavery is DOS the less natural. Can our readers guess why the govern ment endeavour. to attract the blacks—why it declares itself their protector? It is for the purpose of scantly sell log them at Cubs. Such is the general conviction in the South, the correspondent of the English journal tells us. We much regret that this information comes so late : if it had been known earlier it would undoubtedly have profoundly moditled the opinion of Europe upon the American war. What is clearer, in fact, than the origin of that war, now that light has been thrown upon it by the correspondent of the Times? President Lincoln, as is well known, is a tyrant, although he is alerted by mil venal suffrage, although hs is compelled to resign his office at the end of four years, aid although he allows himself to be abused by the slavery journals of New York. Never theless he is really • tyraat ; sad to gratify his tyrannical instincts he wants to bestow upon the slaves the freedom they so much abhor, and then send them to Cuba back to the slavery they love; this being no excuse fur his conduct, sines it is • hard can for a aggro to be I emancipated against his will, though only for • few mouths. And it is R order to oppose all these iniquities that the planters hare take i n t z arms. Jesting apart, we en with regret that in En gla nd the press (with some exceptions. among which the ly News is conspicuous) displays is justice and good sense than the Eernment. Th e illiberal tendencies lately manifested the more important organs of the English pram, with exceptions just named, do not fail to asto nish educated people on this side of the Channel." rug LieraPool. CHAMBER OF COMIMECR AND Bzufazasurr Itzairra Alf /Jun.—The adjourned meeting of the Liverpool Chamber of ()ammo= was held yesterday, Mr. T. Chilton in the chair, the discussion being mainly confined to the question of the exemption of private pro perty from capture at sea. Mr. Campbell brought forward the following resolution at this poiat—" That this chamber adheres to the views expressed by it in its memorial to the Board of Trade of Jam 19, 1860, sad to Lord Palmerston of Feb. 3, 1860, and in its petition to the Home of °outmost of March 6, 1862, in favour of the proposal to exempt pri vate property at sea from capture." Mr. W. H. Lemport seconded the motion. Mr. Patterson moved as an mead meet "That it is inexpedient to prosecute further at pre sent the question of the exemption of private property at sea, intimately connected as it is with the law of blockade and others incident to a state of warfare upon which this chamber seems in disposed to commit itself to deliberate opinion without further consideration ; " which was seconded by Mr. Anion, and was put and lost by a large majority. Mr. Spence then moved the following amendment : That to abolish the right to capture the men:lint ships of the easeny plainly leads to the abolition of commercial blockade; that this chamber ban recently affirmed that it is not to the interest of this country to abrogate the established right of blockade, and now resolves not to further any alteration in international law that tends directly or indirectly to impair the efficiency of our naval forces in time of war." Mr. Bernard Hall seconded the amendment ; and, after some discussion, the question was adjourned for a week.
