The insurgents in Sabina and Campagna are continually increasing in number. It is expected that the Pontifical troops will shortly abandon the provinces, and concentrate for the defence of Rome and Civita Vecchia only. FLORENCE, Oer. 15. The Nations of to-day strongly criticises any idea of French intervention in Rome. According to accounts received here from Rome, the Zouaves were defeated at Monte Libretti, with the loss of fifteen killed and wounded. The in surgents, however, afterwards abandoned Monte Libretti, and also Falvaterra. FLORENCE, Ocr. 15, ArrEarroott. A rumour has been current here that Menotti Garibaldi was wounded in the recent engagement at Monte Maggiore, but the report is not con firmed. The insurgents are concentrating in the neigh bouring mountains. FLORENCE, 0cr.15, EVIWING. Advices published here by the Relief Committee state that 800 insurgents occupied Palestrina yes terday, that the population of Velletri and Frosi none are joining the insurgents, and that a consi derable number of the Pontifical troops at the latter place are retreating towards Rome. PARIS, Ocr. 15, Byrum°. The Imperial family left Biarritz this morning, and is expected to-night at St. Cloud. The France of this evening says :—" We have reason to believe that Marshal Narvaez, in the name of the Queen of Spain, has made an offer to the French government to co-operate with it in maintaining the integrity of the temporal power of the Pope in the event of its being seriously threatened." It is stated that the Papal Nuncio communicated yesterday to the Ministry for Foreign Affairs Car dinal Antonellis despatch relative to the invasion of the Pontifical States. This evening's journals publish conflicting state ments respecting the views of the French govern ment on the Roman question. Several of them, especially the France and Petrie, maintain the necessity of requiring the strict execution of the September Convention. The Freese says that the French government opposes the most absolute ^ion posvotius to every attempt at modifying the Sep tember Convention. PRUSSIA. BERLIN, Ocr. 15, EVENING. The Crown Prince and Princess are going on the 19th inst. to England. The New Prussian (Cross) Gazette of this evening says :—" Without wishing to contradict the nows of an intended interview between the King of Prussia and the Emperor of Austria, we must state that nothing is known on the subject either here or at Vienna." The King has sanctioned the Salt Tax BilL King William received on Sunday, at Baden Baden, Count Solms Sonnenwalde, Councillor of the Prussian Legation in Paris, who had just ar rived from that city. Count Solms Sonnenwalde reached here to-day, and immediately visited the Foreign-office. The Prussian minister at Dresden, Herr von Eichmann, arrived here yesterday, was received to day at the Foreign-office, and proceeds this evening for Paris. THE NORTH GERMAN PARLIAMENT. BERLIN, Ocr. 15. At the sitting of the North German Parliament to-day, the President and Vice-President of that body were re-elected by acclamation.

COOLIE EMIGRATION.—The Ganges left this port some days ago for India, having on board 451 persons, being East Indian immigrants, with their families, whose periods of labour in this colony had expired, and who had therefore become entitled to a free return passage to their own country. Of this number 404 were bound for Cal cutta and 47 for Madras. Certain facts connected with the departure of these people may help to defend British Guiana from an accusation that has been made against it of fostering a cruel and pernicious system of immigration and labour. Coolie emigration has been denounced in England, and is now being denounced in America, as some thing by which the Chinaman or East Indian is reduced to • condition little if at all better than that of the African was before emancipation. Let us see whether a reference to the immigrants who left by the Ganges will sustain or refute that view. These people having passed their allotted time in British Guiana now return to India free of expense ; they carry on their persons gold and silver ornaments and coins of very irreat value, which they have purchased out of their They expended some money in procuring clothing e s ar l u at for the voyage ; several of them made remittances to India through the banks. Exclusive of all these deductions the immigrants lodged with the Colonial Receiver-General for remittance to India on their account 10 2371 . 14e. 2d. Making a moderate allowance for the outla and remit tames mentioned above, each actual depositor (and the number of depositors is of necessity less than the entire number of souls on board) would have saved nearly 34/,. during his sojourn in British Guiana. The homeward passage being free of expense to the emigrant be will have this sum to draw without any deduction onarriving in his own oountry.—Tat Demerara Colonist, Sept. 23. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (nom OUR cm( coaszsrosoreer.) PARIS, TVZSDAY EVENT G. Reports having been flying about as to the unfavourable state of the health of the Emperor and the Prince Imperial, the official and semi official journals have lately been at somewhat more than usual pains to report the precise move ments of the imperial family. During the last two or three days almost identical accounts have appeared in the journals describing the walks and rides, in carriages and on horseback, with the direction and duration of these short excursions in the environs of Biarritz. The bad effect upon the Bourse of what appear to be unfounded state ments as to the indisposition of the Emperor is of too recent occurrence to be forgotten ; and as there are people who will still insist upon it that the ruler of France is not in his usual health the journals in the interest of the government do all in their power to dissipate unnecessary alarm on this head. for which, indeed, I believe it is quite true there is no valid reason. The Emperor is affirmed to be in excellent health, notwithstand ing the multiplied cares of state, which are un doubtedly gathering fast around him. The Minister of State and of Finance, M. Rouher, has been somewhat seriously ill at his chateau at Cercay, near Brunay ; but the latest reports say that there is no longer any ground of alarm. That statesman was absent from the council of ministers held on Saturday at his official residence, but was present yesterday, with all the other ministers then in Paris, at the obsequies of M. Fould. A dreadful catastrophe has just occurred at St. Etienne. An explosion and fall of earth took place in the oil wells there, and 39 unfortunate creatures were immediately suffocated. It is a question whether the falling in of the earth caused the explosion, or whether the former is to be at tributed to the latter. A subscription will be opened for the relief of the wives and families of the deceased, and the company who own the works have already attended to the most pressing wants. The negotiations between Prussia and Denmark relative to Northern Schleswig have been tempo rarily suspended, Prussia having declared that she would not go further in the matter before the re ports of the commissioners on the Duchies had been received. Speaking of Denmark, I may mention that the government has suppressed the post of Minister Plenipotentiary for Holland and Belgium. M. de Bille-Brahe, who discharged those functions at Brussels, has just been appointed to the same office at Florence, and has left for his new occupation. The Princess Royal of Prussia has arrived at Baden, as also have the Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Baden, together with the Prince and Princess of Darmstadt, who have come to be pre sent at the fate of the Prince Royal, the celebra tion of which is fixed for the 18th inst. Transactions on the Bourse had still a downward tendency. Rente varied for some time, and finally closed at a fall of 30c. Italian Fives, after showing a somewhat better tone, dropped to 451 r. 70c., and finished with a further depreciation at 44fr. 95c. This was attributed to a despatch, an nouncing that the insurgents under Menotti Garibaldi had obtained an important success over the Pontifical Zouaves at Monte Rotonde, and that the Garibaldians had advanced to within 20 kilo metres of Rome. The Bourse closed with an un favourable 'aspect, almost all descriptions being down, and the Rente finishing at 67fr. 95c. FOREIGN-OFFICE, Ocr. 14.—The Queen has been pleased to approve of Baron Carlo de Cretty de St. Psires as Consul at Aden for his Majesty the King of Italy. The Queen has also been pleased to approve of Mr. Francis Mac Nab as Consul at Sydney, in New South Wales, for his Majesty the King of the Netherlands. The Queen has also been pleased to approve of Mr. William Mint* as Consul for the presidency of Bengal, to reside at Calcutta, for his Majesty the King of Sweden and Norway.—Gazrlte. Wka-ornee, Our. 14.—The Queen has been graciously pleased to give orders for the appointment of William Rose Esq., deputy clerk of the parliaments, to be an extra member of the civil division of the second class, or knights commanders, of the Most Honourable Order of the Bath ; and of Major John Janice Oreig, late of the 3rd West India Regiment, to be an ordinary member of the cis it division of the third class, or companions, of the said moat honourable order.—Oa:cat. ----- PRIEST APTER PARSON; OR, BETTERING THE INSTRUCTION.—A Bucks Parson having been triumphantly acquitted by his local bench of the charge of cruelty to animals, for pouring turpentine over the hindquarters of a dog, a certain Priest (who is at the same time a publican, and let us add, presumably, a sinner) has (we learn from the papers), been charged with trying on the same game with a cat, and has also been acquitted—though we do not find that the bench endorsed their acquittal by a testi monial to the humanity of the accused, as they did in the case of the parson. What is sauce for goose is sauce for gander.. 11 lien Parson is allowed to turpentine a stray dog, Priest could hardly be punished for applying the same mild stimulant to an encroaching cat. But Priest ought to insist on the same measure from the bench as was meted by them to Parson, and may fairly com plain that the magistrate., have not assured him, as they assured his prederiesaorParson, that he left the court without the slightest stain on his character for humanity. In this case, evidence was given that the cat went mad from pain, and that its owner, unable to endure the sight of its sufferings, drowned it. This Was premature, accord ing to Turweston experience. The cat was not mad, only lively, and would soon have got over its turpsichorean ex citement. Mr. Puria would beg leave to propose a new illustration of the odious law of comparisons for the Bucks unpaid, as follows :—Bench, Tarp-is ; Turweston Parson, Tarp-ior ; Hemel-Hempstead Priest, Turp-issimus. And would suggest, at the same time, on the authority of the Bucks unpaid, a new rendering of the stale Latin adage, Nemo repeute fait turpissimus—" Nobody need repent of using any quantity of turpentine "—on dog or cat. It is a vulgar error to suppose it hurts. It only blisters, burns, and scarifies. When Bucks Beaks and Bucks Priests and parsons are pachydermatous to satire, wrath, or ridicule, Bucks dogs and cats have no business to wince under tur pentine.—Punch. A LEGION or Itars.—A few nights ago, a party belonging to Hadilington, who had occasion to travel be. tween Tranent and the burgh, found himself suddenly in the midst of a legion of rats, which were leisurely crossing the high road from one side to the other. The rats were too much occupied with their own concerns to pay any attention to the passer-by, who, though every moment ex pecting to he attacked, was allowed to move on un molested. The rats seemed to be in thousands, and, from the direction they were taking, appeared bound for a neigh bouring stackyard.—Hculdingfoil Courier. WINE Licawsra.—At the Liverpool police-court yesterday Victor Joseph Petitmangin applied for a transfer to him of the wine license formerly held by • person named Lambert. The feeling of the magistrates was evidently to refuse, in consequence of the applicant having incurred the displeasure of the bench when be kept a refreshment house in Lime-street, to which persons of immoral cha racter resorted. Since then he had been conducting two public-houses in different parts of the town, against which there had been no complaint, and as the objection of the bench in this case did not lie within the scope of the act of parliament, they had no alternative but to grant the license, the act directing that " • license should be granted if there was no objection." In the course of yesterday afternoon bail was tendered on behalf of the prisoners Mace, who were immediately liberated. On leaving the court Jem Mace rushed quickly up Bow-street h. a very excited manner. The great crowd waiting outside the court, attracted by the examination of Groves on the charge of murder, were taken by surprise by Mace's curious behaviour, and soon set off in chase after him. However, it was soon dis covered who he was, and the people returned to the station house in the hope of obtaining a glance of the alleged Fenian when talon away in the van. , THE WEST COAST OF AFRICA. The African Royal Mail Steamship Company's steamer Athenian, Captain J. W. Davis, arrived at Liverpool yesterday with the mails, &c., from the West Coast of Africa, Teneriffe, and Madeira. Her dates are Cameroons, Sept. 9th ; Old Calabar and Fernando Po, 13th ; Bonny, 16th; Benin, 17th; Lagos, 19th ; Accra, 21st ; Cape Palmas, 24th ; Siena Leone, 28th; Teneriffe, Oct. 6th; and Madeira, 7th. The Athenian brings a full cargo and seven passengers. For four days after leaving Madeira► the Athenian experienced a succession of strong N.E. winds. At Cameroon trade was dull, and the river healthy. The rain continued to fall when the Athenian sailed from the river. From Old Calabar we learn that the river was healthy and trade was good. A terrible tragedy occurred there on the 12th September. It appears that a chief named Effims Adam died rather sud denly at that place, and as his people entertained the idea that he had been the victim of foul play, the late chief's wives, to the number of six , and the entire household, who had been suspected, were Resembled, and compelled to go through a baroarous ordeal. Each of the unfortunate people were forced to swallow a large dose of the " mere," or Calabar bean (the poisonous properties of which are well known) to test their innocence of being parties to the supposed murder of the chief. Eight of the unfortunate victims had succumbed to the effects of the deadly poison when the Athenian left, and the remainder were not expected to survive. At Fernando Po trade was rather dull, but the island was healthy. Trade was brisk at Bonny, and the health of the river was good. At New Calabar trade was at a complete stand still, owing to the war between the New Calabar and the Ecricke men, which continued to be carried on with great vigour. It was reported that a battle had been fought between the two tribes on the 14th of September, and that forty of the New Calabar men were captured and afterwards killed, roasted, and eaten by the Ecrickes. Trade was good at Benin, and the river healthy. At Lagoa the health of the island was good, and trade continued to improve. The Royal Mail steamer Lagos had arrived out on the 19th Sep tember. All well. Trade was very dull at Accra, but the town was healthy. The health of Cape Palmas was good, but business was rather dull. _ _ _ At Sierra Leone trade was very bad, but the town was healthy. The Royal Mail steamer Macgregor Laird sailed on the 20th for the ..e. All well. The }loyal Mail steamer Mandingo, left Tone riffe on the let instant for the west coast. All well. Sabin anlt iffiiitarp. PORTSMOUTH, Ocr. 15. The Danae, designed by Mr. E. J. Reed, and built at Portsmouth, made an official trial of her speed at light draught, yesterday, at the measured mile, Stokes Bay, under the superintendence of Captain Chanberlain, of the steam reserve ; Mr. Murdoch, chief inspector of machinery afloat ; Mr. Brain, assistant master shipwright ; and Mr. W. Lynn. She drew 12 feet 5 inches forward, and 15 feet 8 inches aft, having 240 tons of coal on board. Six runs were made at full boiler power, resulting in a mean of 13.384 knots. Four runs were made at half-boiler power, giving a mean of 11.262 knots. The engines worked well, and the result was very satiafactoiy. A full circle to port was made in 3 min. 50 sec., and a half circle in 2 min. With helm to starboard a circle was made in 3 min. 52 sec., and a half circle in 2 min. The experiment was completely successful. The Serams, iron screw troop ship, Captain John C. Seedy, sails to-morrow with the 4th Dragoona,4th Humors, sth brigade of Royal Artillery, and detachments of the 37th and 58th Regiments for Alexandria. The Tamar, iron screw troop ship, Captain Francis W. Sullivan. C. 8., sails to-morrow for Hong Kong with super numeraries. The Eak, 21. screw corvette, Captain John P. Luce, will be paid off on Thursday. The Nelson, 72, screw, was t►ken out of No. 10 dock to day. She got up her steam for trial of her engines, and will go to Spithead to-morrow. WOOLWICH, Ocr. 15.—A numerous force of Royal Artillery assembled on the common this morning at o'clozk, and after inspection marched to the Royal Arsenal Railway Station, whence they proceeded by special train to Portsmouth, for embarkation on board the troop ship Serapas for Alexandria. The Southport Steamship Company have pur chased a new steamer called the Southport, which is to be employed on pleasure excursions from Southport to Black pool, Lytham, and other watering places on the north . OWL ---- . An i nqu iry, ordered by the Board of Trade, was commenced yesterday at the Greenwich Police•court, before Mr. Traill, the magistrate, and Captains Baker and Hunter., Nautical Assessors, relative to the loss of the steamer Biog., Manton, of Sunderland, from London for Japan, on one of the Eddystone Rocks called the Sugar Loaf, on the morning of the Ist inst. Ma. JUSTICE Lrsn.—Yesterday Mr. Justice Lush attended at the Judges' Chambers for the first time since his return from circuit for Chief Justioe Bovill. Attendance by a judge will be given on Tuesday and Friday in each week till the end of the vacation. SERIOUS OMNIBUS ACClDENT.—Yesterday morn ing, about nine o'clock, one of the Atlas omnibuses, pro ceeding from St. John's-wood to the City with about 26 inside and outside passengers, met with • serious accident on its arrival at Regent-otreus West. It would appear that the 'bus was going at some considerable speed before arriving at that point, and the conductor was warned by a gentleman when he got out of the probability of an accident, he having observed something wrong with it. Everything ryas apparently safe when the vehicle stopped at the south part of the circus. There some persons alighted, and others got up, and the omnibus Natstarted, but had not proceeded • distance ix yards when the near bind wheel literally fell to pieces, and the spring of the near part of the fore carriage gave way. carrying all support with it from the near side. The omnibus then fell on its aide in the road, throwing the outside passengers with great violence on to the pavement. The driver was pitched upon his shoulder, and several gentlemen were removed to the nearest su rgeous' in a senseless condition. As far as severe cuts and contusions are concerned, however, the inside passengers fared worse than the outside ; revered being much cut about the head and face, and severely braised. The inside of the wreck of the omnibus was covered with blood. Bye, the driver, was at once conveyed to the Middlesex Hospital. when it was found that his shoulder was dislocated and hie back severely oontused in many parts, but no apprehension is entertained of his injuries ending fatally. One young gentleman was seriously injured. OBSTRUCTIONS IN THE STREET/I.—Several im portant amendments are made in the law with respect to obstructions in the streets in the new Metropolitan Traffic Act, which will come into force on the first day of nex. month. No goods or articles aretto remain in the streets for any longer period than is absolutely necessary to the unload ing or loading. An addition has now been: made which will prevent the exposure of goods in the public thuronehfares within four miles from Charing-cross (the general limits of the act) beyond the shops. The words are, " For the pur poses of this act the surface of any space over which the public have the right of way that intervenes in any street within the general limits of this act between the footway and the carriageway shall, notwithstanding any claim of any person by prescription or otherwise to the deposit or exposure for sale of any goods or other articles on such surface, be deemed to be pert of the footway." THE FUTURE or THE Sotrn.—The social forces are working at the South with unbroken power, and will grind the president and his " policy " to powder, even if they were an hundredfold more powerful than they are. The conventions are sure to be elected. The negroes are disappointing friends and enemies. They are every day coming into possession of lend in all the Gulf States ; they are working steadily and faithfully; the Bureau banks are bursting with their savings ; they are filling all the official positions in which they have been placed with modesty and efficiency; they are rapidly acquiring educa tion and political insight , and it is safe to say that half the land - of the South is passing under the sheriff's hammer, and will soon be in possession of new men, on whom the traditions of the olden time have no bold, and whose labours will soon bring the South into the rank of civilised modernised communities, and get rid of the question which for thirty years has cursed American politics.— New York Nation. LIBERAL BANQUET AT LEEDS. LEEDS, TOBSDAT NIOAT. In celebration cf the peening of the Reform Bill, a banquet, under the ;auspices of the Yorkshire depart ment of the Reform League, was held here to-night, in the Queen's Hotel, and was attended by about 300 persons. Mr. A. ILLINGWORTH, of Bradford, occupied the chair, and there were present Mr. Baines, M.P., Mr. E. A. Leatham, Mr. Alderman Carter, an , 1 Dr. Lets, Mr. LEATHLM proposed " The Howes of Parliament." Mr. BAINLS responded, and, whilst =erasing hie con fidence in the new electors enfranchised by the Reform Bill, advocated the adoption of the ballot as a preventive Ito bribery and intimidation. He also expressed the hope that several working men would be returned to the new parliament, not, however, baying the invidious title of representatives of labour, but on an equal footing with all the other members of the legislature. 1 The greatest enthusiasm prevailed throughout the proceedings. BRADFORD ELECTION. THE POLL. BRADFORD, TCEFIDAT EVENING. The poll to supply the vacancy in the represent ation of this borough took piece to-sky. The town has been in • state of great excitement dating the entire day. The streets, especially Bridge-street, where are situate the central committee rooms of the respective can didates, were crowded by persons anxious to learn the state of the poll. The crowd was frequently noisy, but good-humoured. Mr. Miall took the lead in the poll and kept it till 10 o'clock. At half-past 10 the poll showed that Mr. Thompson had 1,279 votes against 1,241 re corded for Mr. Miall. From this hour Mr. Thompson took the lead of Mr. Miall, and slightly distanced him almost at every half hour ; and ultimately obtained a majority of about 300. In the evening great excitement prevailed in the town, and some disturbances took place. FENIAN ALARMS. The Edinburgh Courant says :—" On Monday forenoon, telegraphic orders were received from the Home-office by the officers in command of the Highland DepOt Bat. telion at Aberdeen to send on at ones 50 men and offioers to the vicinity of Balmoral, one half to be stationed at lover, near Balmoral, and the other half at Castleton of Braemar. Accordingly, the men in depot of the itird Regiment were immediately paraded in preparation for departure, and they left by the 2.45 train for Balloter in command of three officers and three sergeants. The unusual nature of the order soon gave rise to rumours u to its cause of a somewhat exciting sort, the common I averment being a Fenian alarm in the vicinity of royalty. Considerable colour is given to thia supposition by the fact thaithesheriff and the chief constable went also toßal. moral, and that the police carefully watched the trains from the south on their arrival. Another statement was that the troops were required :as a guard of honour at the an covering of the Priam Consort statue by Theed. Other twenty-five men were being kept in readiness to march at the barracks in case of further orders._7 The Seatinnan says on the same subject:—" A rumour was spread in Aberdeen on Monday that the Queen had been shot at by some Irishmen while out in the neigh bourhood of Balmoral ; and to this alarming intelligence was ucribed the departure of Major Roes, the chief con stable of the county of Aberdeen, and of Sheri ff Cowrie Thomson, by the afternoon train for Balloter, accompanied by a body of soldiers belonging to the depots in the bar racks. So far, however, as we have been able Ito learn by telegraphic inquiry at • late hour, ' there existed no foundation whatever for the startling rumour. No alarm of the presence of Fenian, prevails or has prevailed anywhere on Dettaide, although in Aberdeen itself, as we are informed, rumours of in ! tended Fenian enterprises have been very current. The I soldiers left Aberdeen by orders from headquarters, for the purpose of furnishing a guard of honour on the °cm . sion of her Majesty uncovering the statue of the Prinos t Consort which has recently been erected near Balmoral ; and the sheriff and chief constable presumably went to Balmoral in connexion with the same ceremonial. Some busy imaginations, excited by the vague talk about pas ' Bible Fenian raids in Aberdeen, had apparently coupled their fancies with the fact of the departure of the soldiers, ' and thus generated the painful and foolish report which it is most gratifying to be able to deprive of a moment's currency beyond the spot where it arose." The extraordinary proceeding on the part of the naval authorities at Queenstown, on Thursday night, of onlering all the o ffi cers and men who bad been on shore to return j on board their ships, the Mersey and gunboats, and placing them under arms during the night, has, way s the ( 'ori. Ex aminer, naturally been the cause of much gossip at Queenstown. Nothing has since transpired to justify such precautions being taken, but the facts of their being repeated every night since, and boats manned by armed seamen patrolling in the harbour, leave little doubt of their good reasons for precautionary mea sures. The rumours in reference to the affair are, of course, numerous, and amongst thesis is, that a movement was made on the faith of information which was received from Cork that • number of Fenian* bad made a plot to blow up the guard ship, by means of a torpedo, which was to be carried out on Thursday night. This, however, is • mere rumour, and cannot be, therefore, ,depended upon for accuracy. Yesterday morning the sth and 17th troops of Royal Artillery left Woolwich at an early hour for the terminus of the Great Northern Railway, King's-cross. There trains were in readiness to convey them to Hull and Manchester. The baggage was afterwards brought to the same station by the Military Train, and was forwarded to its destination by trains that left at half-past ten. At • late hour on Monday night two other troops of the Artil lery left Woolwich, under orders to proceed by forced marches to Manchester. THE HEALTH OF LONDON. It appears from the return issued by authority of the Registrar-General, that in the week that ended on Saturday, October 12, 4,035 births and 2,849 deaths were registered in London and in twelve other large towns of the United Kingdom. The annual rate of mortality was 24 per 1,000 persons living. The annual rate of mortality last week was 21 per 1,000 in London, 23 in Edinburgh, and 23 in Dublin ; 19 in Bristol, 28 in Birmingham, :31 in Liverpool, 34 in Manchester, 29 in Salford, 24 in Sheffield, 24 in Leeds, 35 in Hull, 33 in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, end 24 in Glasgow. The rate in Vienna was 23 per 1,0110 during the week ending the sth instant, when the mean temperature was 3.8 deg. Fahrenheit higher than in the same week in London, where the rata was 20. The 2,432 deaths returned last week in the ten large English towns, i including London, showed an increase of 170 upon thaw of the previous week. This increase was shared by all the ten towns except Leeds and Bristol. The deaths from diarrhea have in the past five weeks steadily decreased from 577 to 188 last week, which is little above the average for the second week of October. The death rote from this cause was highest last week in Bi/ mingbain, in which town scarlatina was also prevalent. The mortality from various tymotic diseases was high last week in Manchester and Newcastle-upon-Tyne. In London the births of 1,023 boys and 1,00.; girls, in all 2,028 children, were registered in the week. In the cor responding weeks of ten years 1857.66 the average num ber, corrected for increase of population, is 2,014. The deaths registered in London iluring the week were 1,233. It was the forty-first week of the year; and the ave rage number of deaths for that week is, with a correction for Increase of population, 1,267. The deaths in the pre sent return are less by 34 than the estimated number. The mortality from diarrhea and cholera continues to de cline ; last week the deaths of 53 children and 6 adults from diarrhea, and the deaths of 2 children and 2 adults from cholera or choleraic diarrhea. were registered. In the two previous weeks the deaths from than h.,a were 108 and 78, and from cholera 15 and 5. Three fatal cases of diarrhea were registered last week in the \Vest, sin the North, 5 in the Central, 17 in the East, and 29 in the South districts, In the corresponding week of last year the deaths from diarilitea were 47, and from cholera 21/7. Thirteen deaths from small-pox, 18 from measles, 38 from scarlatina, 31 from whooping-cough, and 36 from typhus were recorded last week. Phthists proved fatal to 163 per sons, 90 deaths occurred from bronchitis, and 55 from pneumonia. ACCIDENT ON THE NORTH BRITISH RAILWAY.— On Monday morning the express train which leaves Edin burgh at 9.45 a.m., and is due at Carlisle at 12.45, bad reached the neighbourhood of Fountainhall Station, about fifteen miles north of Galashiela, when one of the axles of the engine broke close to the wheeL The axle seems to have been smpported in some way after the breakage, as it did not fall down ; but one of the wheels immediately left the line, and ran in that state for about half a mile, when the driver succeeded in pulling up the taniu before further mischief took place. A messenger was immediately sent back to telegraph for a fresh engine, which made its ap pearance in due course, when the train proceeded on its Journey, the mishap having caused a delay a two hours.
