PRlWlnaPoireaL LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 17, 1884. the great wave of thought that will have risen and move onwards. By the way, there is a curious oversight in the Address which is a little talked about, and which is, I imagine, a misprint. Sir Charles says, speaking of the Gulf stream, that it takes a Borth-Western course across the Atlantic. This was surely intended to have been a north- Eastern course. Passing from grave to gay, the soiree at the Assembly Rooms last night was at least a very successful affair, so far as getting the visitors and members together to do nothing but look at one another and obat about scienoe and celebrities. I have been in many orowda, but never in a hotter or a denser one, at least in the same strata of society. These Assembly Rooms have been very handsome, when Beau Nash was the presiding Genius of Bath ; but now they are singularly dingy in decoration. The prevailing tone of colour is a Quakerbrown, relieved hy peach colour trimmings, but all rather faded, and though abundantly lit with gas and wax candles that gut tered in the various draughts from the paimiges, the genand-illhet was not happy. The upholsterers of Bath are famous, and so are the dealers in china and other bric-a-brac, and they had ornamented the rooms with some really beautiful objects of this kind in cabinets and stands in various suitable ' places. The Octagon room seemed to be the favourite resort of the habitues, and here there were many velvet ottomans, and in the centre was a large one with a centre group of mag nificent flowers under the chandelier. And on this reclined, not houria of Paradise, who should have been peeping out from under these lovely flowers, but, dare I say it I—dowagers. The beau ties were all in the crushes ; why I know not, unless it is that they know how lovely they look a little flushed, with the hair a little scattered, as if blown by the wanton breeze. There were some of this complexion that would have turned Romney's ,or Gainsborough's head, and broken his heart, perhaps, into the bargain, for I trove there's a considerable dash of the " worldly" in the eyes of the Bath beauty. En revanche there were specimens of the genuine old jewelled spinster—dried specimens— several with wonderful hair and such, rare flowers entwined, and a few with a coiffute of universal frizz, adorably droll, and singularly calculated to break down the barriers between masculine and feminine. I feel convinced that some of them had sat in these rooms, and played whist, at guinea points, with the Prince Regent. In the streets and squares, which are magnificently built and delight fully fresh and clean, one sees charming taste in dress ; and, as to the hair, whether out of oampli ment to the moans or not, the young ladies have: contrived to arrange it under their pretty little; cockleshell hats in a style which has been named la trilobite by their philosophic admirers.

The sad death of Captain Speke is the only thing that people care to speak of to-day. The event has cast a gloom over the meeting generally, and espe cially in the department which is the most popular, and where the preemies of the young Englishman who discovered the sources of the Nile represented at once the adventurous enterprise, the practical skill iu science, and the manliness of the soldier traveller and explorer of savage and dangerous regions. It was known only to a few of the mem bers that this moat distressing and fatal accident bad occurred, and it was painful to sit and hear the signs of the common impatience an audience makes when kept waiting after the time appointed. The stamping and scraping was hushed, as it might well have been a little sooner, by the entrance of Sir Roderick Murchison, the President of the Geographical Sec tion, who in a very grave manner and in a very feeble voice began to announce the melancholy acci dent which had deprived the Society of so distin guished a member. The precise words I could not catch ; but these no doubt will be reported accurately, with the resolution of condolence passed by the Committee, which was read by Sir Rode rick. I must say that for my part I could not help feeling how very inade quate it seemed to be as an expression of what all must have felt in that numerous assembly. 1 hoped that Sir Roderick, as the head of the Society and the science, which have derived so much honour from the researches of Captain Speke, would have attempted something more in the form of an enthusiastic tribute to the deeds of a great though a young traveller. I thought that if this event had occurred in France his brother explorers and all the men of science would have risen at once into a high and generous eulogy ; they would not have waited to frame, in all due propriety, a formal resolution. So we Englishmen miss these opportu nities of speaking from the heart words that give a zest to life ! I have not been able to learn more of this lamentable accident than that Captain Speke got up early in the morning to go out shooting ; he was at the very core a sportsman, and indeed, as I once beard him say with unaffected enthusiasm, it was this passion for sport which led him to Africa. It appears that he had walked a little in advance of his party and had got over a wall—strange to say for so experienced a 'porta man—with the muzzle of his gun pointed towards his cheat. He was seen to fall at the moment the re port of the gun was heard, and his friends on run ning up to him found the poor fellow all but dead. He was in reality killed instantaneously, as it has been described by those who heard the message given to the Committee of the Section. How mysterious it is that a man who had survived so many perils, and escaped so many risks, should come at last to an end like this ! It is rather remarkable that Bruce, the greatest traveller of his day in those very regions of Africa which Speke explored, and in search of the same great problem in geography, died by an accident equally sudden, and, if possible, under more sorrowful circumstances. He had en tertained a party of friends at his house, and in bidding them god-speed his foot slipped on the top step of the doorway, and he fell, receiving some vital injury which left him dead on the spot. The effect of the announcement upon the gay audience of ladies was marked by a decorous silence for a few moments, and some looked down, perhaps to hide a tear over a brave spirit, but there was no proposition to adjourn for even an hour. Captain Burton, with a sort of sinister felicity, stood ready as it were to fill the gap, armed with a paper on his ascent of the Congo river, and his visit to the King of Dahomey. Captain Burton, though, as every one knows, a not very generous rival of Captain Speke, might, it should seem, have seized the moment to say one noble and generous word of his fellow-traveller, but he was silent and collected. They travelled together in the first expedition in search of the great Lakes, but only so far as they were obliged to keep company in a desert land and belonging to the same expedition. They differed in their views of many things, particularly (as it turned out) as to the Source of the Nile. Captain Bur ton rushed home to the Geographical, and into print at the same pace, to tell how he had very nearly found it out, while Speke kept his eye I steadily bearing for the great lake fountain of the Nile, and made the discovery that has immortalized his name. There is this last melancholy kind of satisfaction to be felt when a celebrated man is snatched in his prime thus suddenly and cruelly away from us, that it marks him with a certain halo of distinction, and we solace ourselves, as the ancients did, with the thought that lie war called away to be the guest of the gods. Sir Charles Lyell's Address is likely to be a rather tough bone of contention for the year. One good thing ; there is plenty of meat in it, and to those who have the constitution to stand good, strong, wholesome sustenance, no doubt it will do more than all the orthodox tonics that are supplied to the stu dents who have not a very good appetite for plain food. I have met with two or three who object to being expected to give such long credit as " myriads of centuries," and there are those who shake their heads and look pitiably aggrieved because the President used the term " plan of Nature " while speaking of a complete record of her works to be studied by rational beings in after ages. This was probably no more than Sir Charles himself expected, and I only regret with many down here that we cannot have a discussion upon the President's address ; this would be indeed a splendid opportunity. The widest and perhaps most useful discussion, however, which it will provoke, and so highly merits, will be in the thoughful reading that it will claim, and will continue to receive throughout the whole world. Its enlightened and profound philosophy will find a powerful response everywhere, and we shall be made sensible, I dare say, of BROTHIR lONATIUS.-EXTILtORDINARY PIiuCENDINGS. It was announced that Brother Ignatius would =at the mooastery at Norwich on the nativity of the Virgin, but a sore throat prevented his doing so. It is stated that the Rev. Professor Owen, of Jeans College, Oxford, officiated in his stead. The rev. gentleman preached from the words, "The dew of thy birth is of the womb of the morning." On Wednesday there was a special service at the monastery in celebration of the " exaltation of the holy crone" Mr. IL F. Webber, third son of Mr. C. B. Webber, of South Brannocks, Dear Barnstaple, Devonshire, has jut taken the monastic vows: he will be known in the " English Order of St. Benedict." as Brother Branoock. An intuit of two plan ham this week been so lecoaly dedicated at the mousier, to the service of Got The infant was dressed se a Benedictine movie* in white serge, and he ia now left altogether to the care of the minks, and will not see his mother sgaio until he has forgotten her. Brother Ignatius esgaged to deliver a course of lectures at Newometle-on-Tyne, on the peculiar principles and which he is seeking to introduce into the church of Beg . There is no doubt that be is in • week state of health iodated by the austerities which he has practised. During the oast week there have been some alterations at the monastery. It appears that the building dignified with this title was let some time since by the dean and chapter of Norwich to • gentleman who was saheb. quently admitted • member of the " third order." This gam. tieman seems to have sib-let the tenement te Brother Ignatius sad the " Esglish order of St. Beeediel." Oro of the brethren who recently quitted the order wet received as a visitor at the house of the member of the " third order;" and as this was in direct violatioo of the rules of the order generally—and at any rate of the will and plea sure of Brother lgostaus— the member of the "third order" now finds himself excommunicated. A lady who refined to lend her assistance to the establish meat of a nunnery at Norwich has also bees excommunicated. The discipline mauttanied by Bro. Bier Ignatius is very severe ; aid when any of the moths address him as superior they have to make • very abject obeisance. One of the monks, Brother Augustine, hie addressed • very extraordinary letter to • lad named Hasa, whom the mouths have endeavoured to attract to the mosastery. The letter is published in the Norfolk Newt d to day, and is as follows u Feast Sancti Cruis, 1864.

The Royal Mail steamer China arrived at Queens town at 6.36 p.m. to-day, with 66 passengers and 86,800 doll. in specie. She landed all the mails and one passenger, and proceeded immediately for Liverpool. All well. (Vif Quosortows.) NEW YORK, Sin. 7, liwurnio. Mr. Stanton announces the receipt of General Sherman's report of the capture of Atlanta, dated 3rd inst., 26 miles south of Atlanta. Sherman withdrew on the 30th ult. from around Atlanta, and reached a point to strike the Macon Road, Howard with the right being near Jonesboro', Schofield with the left near Rough and Ready, and Thomas with the centre at Couch's. The Federal', finding the enemy at Jonesboro', entrenched them selves. Sherman meeting with strong opposition along the road, advanced his left and centre to the railroad, and broke the reamed from Rough and Ready down to Howard's left, near Jonesboro'. By the same movement Sherman interposed his army between Atlanta and that portion of the enemy en trenched at Jonesboro'. There Sherman made a general attack upon the enemy, capturing their works, lOguns, and 1,000 prisoners. The Confederates retreated south during the night, Sherman follow ing the enemy to their lines near Lovejoy's Sta tion. Hood, at Atlanta, finding Sherman on his only road of supply, and between him and part of his army, retreated during the night from Atlanta, after blowing up the magazines. The 20th Corps of the Federal army then occupied the city. Sherman states that since May the sth his army has been constantly in battle or skirmish, and needed rest. Sherman's losses are 1,200 men. He has 1,600 prisoners. No news has been received from Sherman since the 4th, telegraphic communication between At lanta and Nashville having been cut. Wheeler has damaged the railroad in Sherman's rear. It is reported that Wheeler has been driven off. Farragut and Granger are actively preparing for the attack on Mobile. President Lincoln has ordered a day of thanks giving for the victories at Atlanta and Mobile, and has tendered his thanks to Admiral Ferrara and General Sherman. Salutes have been ordered in honour of the victories. General Gillam has surprised and killed the guerilla General Morgan at Greenville, Tennessee, capturing his staff. Early is still confronting Sheridan in the She nandoah Valley. The draft in New York and Brooklyn will not take placr. It is reported that General Fremont has with drawn his name as Presidential candidate. The arrival of the Emperor Maximilian's envoy at Washington is denied. The consul of Juarez at Philadelphia has not yet presented his creden tials. The Germania, City of Waahingtot, and Scotia have arrived out. COMMERCIAL LNTELLIGENCE NEW YORK, &Fr. 7, Mount°.

SICILITAHT STANTON'S UM= DI:SPASM Wm Department, Washingtaa, Sept. 2, 11 p.m. To Major-General Di::—The following telegram from Major-General Slocum, dated leis day, in Atlanta, and just received, confirms this capture of that city :—" General Sherman has taken Atlanta. The Twentieth. Corps oczapies the city. The main army is on the Macon road, near Fast Point. A battle was fought Dear that point, in which Oe tieral Shermaa was successful. Particular are not kaown.— H. W. Suocca, Meier-General" An unofficial report Mates that a battle was fought near East Paint be General Sher man with Hood. The rebel army was cut in two, with very heavy loos to the enemy, and General Hardee was killed. Our loos in not known.—EoworM. Sragrog, Se cretary of War. The New York Times, of the 3rd inst., thus re fers to this event :—" The great rebel stronghold of the South-west—the position at which the powerful and ever victorious army of General Sherman has been aiming for four months—has fallen, and At lanta is ours. Our forces entered it at noon yee terday. This is a victory so great in itself, of such wide scope, such far-reaching result, such indisputable importance, that the country will receive the news of it with unbounded exultation. We have shown again and again the immense military value of Atlanta, and all that we have ever claimed on this point has been conceded by the South. The rebel military force in the South-west can now find no point in all their territory of anything like its strength or value, and their army must soon break up into small and predatory hordes, which also will iu due time be exterminated. This great news comes to us while yet the country is all aglow about the naval triumph of the glorious old sailor, Farragut —while yet we are contemplating Grant's vital victory upon the Weldon road. We have bad triumphs all around of lido—triumphs equal to any ever woo by mortal arms or human valour. What au infamy it is that at such an hour croakers should be croaking and Copperheads biasing, and nice actually contemplating a disgraceful surrender to this thrice-accursed rebellion. M"Clellan's nomination by the Chicago oonven tion Continues to powerfully excite the public mind. The New link Times declares that "it would be a leas calamity to the country that Robert U. Lee should enter Washington as a rebel com mander than George B. M'Clellan as a copperhead president. Lee would not remain there four days before he would have to flee from the gathering hosts of the North. M'Clellsn, ones there, would be secure for four years ; no power on earth oonld expel him.. Lee's coming would goad the national feeling to a wrath that would be resistless- M'Clel lan's going would palsy every arm, and bow the nation to the rebellion. Lee's hostilities on any field we can confront, and eventually master. M'Clellan's ' caseation of hostilities,' which bis platform declares for, is helplessness, submission, ruin." Itadde : " Hitherto the war has had an object. It has been prosecuted to save the republic from [TWOPENCE disruption, and to maintain that constitutional authority without which anarchy is sure to come. The rebellion claims to be let alone.' It is pre cisely because we cannot let it alone without ruin that war has been made against it. The only pos sible way of letting it alone is by the very cessa tion of hostilities' demanded on the Chicago plat form. If we are to give the representative of that platform the executive control of the nation, the object of the war sinks dead into the earth with our dead soldiers. If we are thus to make the war objectless by our default, our anxiety for favour able news of its progress is unspeakably shameless and wicked. Not another trigg e r s h o ul d be pulled. Loyal men have no such thought. Ou the contrary, they find greater reason than ever to hold fast to the war to its legitimate end. They see that its object is near consummation. The rebellion which it aims to prostrate, though yet defiant, is plainly staggering. The rebel armies are being decimated, with no possibility of reinforcement. The rebel communications are being broken up, with no pos sibility of replacement. The war policy never was so strongly sustained by the military situation and prospects as now." Nven the Herald writes in almost similar terms as • preliminary perhaps to throwing MVlellaii over and championing the cause of Mr. Lincoln. The Secretary of War has forwarded an import ant despatch to General Dix relative to the draft, which we publish below. He announces that the naval and other credit*, which had not yet been reported to the Department, reduce the call of the President last July to 300,000 men. He says, furthermore that 100,000 more fresh troops are all that is required by General Grant to give a finishing blow to the rebel lion, and that the residue will only be required to garrison forte, guard the lines of communication, and protect travel and commerce from the assaults of guerillas in the different States now infested with them. The following is the despatch : Wsr lloparimant, Washington, Sept. 21864. To Msjor•Generel Dix, New is seiertabsed with memorable certainty, that the naval and other credits required by the act of Congress, will amount to about 200,000, including New York, which lass not bees reported yet to the department; se that the President's call of July 10th u practically reduced to 300,000 men, to mast and take the place of —l. The new enlistments in the navy ; 2. The casualties of battle, sickness, prisoners and desertion; and 3. The hundred days troops and all others going out by ex piration of aervice this fall. One hundred thoomnd new troops, promptly furnished, are all that General Grant asks for the capture of Itiehmood, and to give a flubbing blow to the rebel armies yet in the field, The residue of the call would be adequate for garrisons in forts and to guard all the lines of communication and supply, fres the country from guerillas, give security to trade, protect commerce and travel, and establish pesos, order aid tranquillity in every Stets. EDWITI M. STANTON, Secretary of War. _ Advioes from Grant's army to the Lt inst. report that quiet prevails along the entire lines ; even picket firing had been discontinued. Warren firmly holds bib position on the Weldon railroad, thereby compelling the Confederates to transport all supplies coming over that road from Ream's station by waggon trains. (From the Time Telegram.) NEW YORK, Sarr. 7, 9.30a.m. Secret►ry Seward made a speech at Auburn. New York, on Saturday evening last, in which he de clared that the salvation of the Union depends upon the election of Mr. Lincoln ; that slavery is no longer an iaaue of the war, aud will not be inter fered with after pesos is restored ; and that the democratic party is aiding and abetting the rebellion. He also stated that no draught will be necessary, as the armies are being recruited as rapidly as required by volunteering. DEATH OF CAPTAIN SPEEE, THE AFRICAN TRAVELLER. (ram( °us conzaroNDsza.) CORSILLII, WILTS, FILDAT. Captain Speke, the celebrated African explorer, while shooting yesterday in thin neighbourhood with his relative,fdr. G. Fidler, of Neeton-park, near this plain, shot bimetal, In getting over a stone-wall, accidentally. Mr. Fuller, seeing t►e captain fall, ran up to him and found that t►e charge had passed through his chest close to the heart. Ho warn only sensible for a few minutes and feebly said to Mr. Fuller, "Don't more me." He died in about ton minutes. A surgeon was quickly on the spot, but life was extinct. He was 38 yam of age and unmarried. THE INQUEST. This eit4flooll the inquest wee held on the body by Mr. Kemm, coroner for the liberty of Corabant, at the residemos of hie brother Mr. W. Spoke, of Monk's-park, to which place the body had been removed. The fint witness ex. 'mined was Mr. George Fuller, son of Mr. Faller, of Nestoopark, who depoesd.—About half-past two, yesterday, I lett my &Lbw's holm with deemed for the purpose of shootiog partridges De:treed had fired off both barrels before the accident oc marred. About four o'clock I got over a low part of a lame stale wall, and was about tiO yards from the place when I heard the report of a gun, and looking round saw the de ceased standing oa the wall. Shortly after he fell into the field, and on going to his assistance Hound him on the ground with a wound in his chest bleeding, which I esdea roared to stop. He was then seasible and spoke to me, bat did not lorig remain so. I stayed with him shoot five minutes, and then left him in charge of the keeper Daniel Davie, and went for assistance. I observed the gun lying by the side of the wall, one barrel, the right was then at half-cock, the other wee discharged. I heard very little report, aad should suppose that the muzzle of the gun was very near the body of the deceased when it went off. lianiel Davis corroborated the above statement. He did not ase the gun explode, but seeing his master ruonitig to wards the deceased he went too, and found him with a wound in his side, and Mr. Fuller endeavouring to stop the blood with his band. Heard the deoreed groan ore or twioe, but could not say whether he was actually sensible or not. Stayed with him till he died, which was about a quarter of an hour after the discharge of the gun. The gun ass a Lan caster breechloader, without a safety guard, but should think it was rte. Mr. Saow, surgeon, of Box, was called in to the de creed. Found him dead on his arrival. There wes a wound ha the left side each as would be made by a cartridge if the mauls of the gun was claw to the body. There was no other wound. It led ininn direction upwards and towards the spine, paring through the lungs and dividing all the large blood reels near the heart, but sot touching the heart itself. Such a wound would cause death. The Coroner having briefly addressed. the jury on their molaecholy duty, and pointed out to them what he magi. dosed was the verdict they should velum. The jay uoansously recorded their verdict, " That the deceased died from the accideutal discharge of his own gun after living a quarter of an hour." They also appended an expression of sympathy (or the family of the deceased in their bereavemoot, which was a loes both to hit Wady and to the whole oountry. A Ln'iltattir Par aCk " FOR CALCUTTA.
