The carbineers were attacked by the crowd, and, without orders, wade use of their arm s in self-defence. An investigation has been ordered into the con_ duet of some of the agents of the police. Several of the citizens were killed and others wounded. Twenty carbineers were also wounded, five of them seriously. A large body of troops has arrived at Turin, and they have been placed under the command of Gene ral Della Rocca. The National Guard has been called out.

THE PARLIAMENTARY STRUGGLE Di PRUSSIA. BERLIN, SET. 22. The semi-official Prorimial Correspondeuz of to day says :—" The government is scarcely under the illusion that the success of its foreign policy has produced a sudden change in the position of politi cal parties in the interior. It is, therefore, pre pared and armed for a renewal of the struggle, which is unavoidable. But the Government does not abandon the hope of reconciliation, because it does not think, it possible that the successes obtained by the war should not have eseeutially contributed to weaken the opposition against the re-organisa tion of the army, and to facilitate a good understanding upon the military question. From the moment an understanding is arrived at the conflict relative to the Budget and to con stitutional questions would lose its real importance. The government contests neither the constitutional right of the Chambers with regard to legislation, nor its right to vote the taxes. The conflict is only upon the question whether the cost of the re organisation of the army can be considered as fresh expenditure, and therefore be objected to by the Chambers. DENMARK AND GERMANY.

The semi-official Prorinzial Curresporukrt: of to day, in an article discussing the future government of the Duchies, says : "It may be expected that the great German Powers will shortly come to an understanding with the Federal Diet as to the manner in which the examination of the hereditary claims respecting Holstein, and also of the other rights to be brought before it prior to the final decision of this question, is to be conducted. For that purpose a judiciary Federal tribunal will be summoned." CAPTURE OF NANKING. SHANGHAI, Auc. 6. The Imperialists have captured Nanking.

In the alx,sace of any important military news, the approaching Presidential election almost ex clusively occupied public attention in New York at the departure of the mail on the 10th. General M'Clella n's letter, accepting the nomination of the Chicago platform, appears to have been received with very little favour, except by the Copperhead faction. General Sherman has sent to the government farther details of the capture of Atlanta. The folk wing is his despatch : Atlanta. Sept. 7. On the 25th of August, perennat tea plan of which the War Department bad been fully advised, I left the 30th Corp at the Chattahooehie bridge, and with the balance of the army, I drew off front the siege, and using some °onside- Tells artifice to asisleadthe enemy. moved rapidly south, reached the West Point Railroad near Fairborn on the Wth, and broke up twelve miles of it. When moving east my right approached the Macon Railroad near Jonesboro, and my left neer Roughand Ready. The enemy attacked the right wing of the army of the Ten sense, and were completely beaten. Oa the 31st, and during the combat, I pushed the left of the centre rapidly to the railroad above, between Rough and Ready and Jonesboro. Oa the Ist of September we broke up about eight miles of the Bacon road, and turned on the enemy at Jonesboro', easardted him and his lines, and carried them, capturing Brigadier-General Gorman and about 2,000 wieners, with eight guns and much plunder. Night alone prevented oar capturing all of Hardee's corps, which escaped south that Welt. flat same night, Hood, in Atlanta, finding all his rail ' roads broken and in our porasion, blew up his ammunition, ' seven locomotives and 80 cars, and evacuated Atlanta, which, on the next day, Sept. 2nd, was occupied by the corps left for that pogroms Major-General Slocum commanding, we following the retreating rebel army to near Lovejoy's station, thirty miles south of Atlanta, where, finding him strongly entrenched, 1 con cluded it would not " pay" to assault, as we already had the great objects of the campaign, viz. Atlanta. Ac cordingly the army gradually and leisur ely returned to Atlanta, and it is now encamped sight miles south of the city, and to-morrow will move to the camps appointed. I am now writing in Atlanta, so I could not be uneasy in re gard to our situation. We have, as the result of this quick, and, as I think, well executed movement. 27 guns, over 3,000 prisoners, and have buried over 400 rebel dead, aid lett as many wounded ; they could not be removed. The rebels have lost besides the important city of Atlanta and stores, at least 500 dead, 2.500 wounded, and 3,000 prisoners. whereas oar aggregate lore will not foot 1,500. If that is not success, I don't know what is. (Signed) Smasua, Major-General. Some of the Southern papers pretend that the fall of Atlanta is an event of but little importance, but others mourn over it with undisguised vexa tion. The Biehmmid Examiner of the 6th has the following remarks on this event :—" This abandonment of Atlanta, under the circum stances, is not a good thing, but so far from being dispirited by it our people ought reve rently to thank God that it is no worse. There are many persons who have had a great weight of anxiety raised from their souls by this news. They have been fearing for the last month, not only that Atlanta would be abandoned, but that some great and irretrievable disaster would overtake the army of Tennessee. Atlanta is gone, but the army is still a unit, and is safe. The lose of Atlanta is nothing ; the loss of the army would have been without a remedy." GENERAL WCLELLAN S LETTER OP ACCEPTANCE. ulna those who 'remain in arms spied the Union. But the Haim mad be preserved at all hazards. I could not look in the face my Willie comrades of the army and nary, who have survived so many bloody battles, and tell them that their la bours sad the sacrifioce of ea many of oar slain and woonded brethren had been in vain ; that we had abandoned that lion for which we hare so often perilled our lives. A vast majority of our people, whether in the army and navy or at home, would, as I would, hail with unbounded joy the permanent restoration of peace, on the basis of the Union under the constitution, without the dream of another drop of blood. But no peace can be permaneet without onion. As to the other subjects presented in the resolu tions of the convention, I need only soy that I should seek, in the constitution of the United States and the laws framed in accordance therewith, the rule of my duty, and the limitations of executive power, endeavour to radon economy in public expenditure, re-establish the supremacy of law, and by the operation of a man vigorous nationality, resume our commanding pontion among the nations of the earth. The condition of our MAIM% the depreciation of the paper money, and the burdens thereby imposed an labour aad capital, show the necessity of • return to • sound financial system ; while the rights of citizens and the rights of States, and the binding authority of law over Praddent, army, and people, are subjects of not ter vital importance in war than in peace. Believing that the views here ex pressed me those of the convention mid the people you re present, I name the acumination. I realise the infect of the responsibility to be borne should the people ratify your choice. Conscious of my own weakness, I can only meek fervently the guidance of the Ruler of the universe, and, re lying on His all-powerful aid, do my beet to restore union and peace to a suffering people, and to establish and guard their liberties and rights.—l am, 'gentlemen, very respect. fully, your obedient servant, Ow.

We reproduce the following letter from the Em peror Napoleon to IL Thouvenel, dated May 20, 1862, which will be read with renewed interest at the present moment : May 20, 1862. Monsieur le Ministra—The more the force of circum stances maintains us, u muds the Roman question, in a line of conduct equally distant from the two opponent Fatties, the more necessary is it that that line should be dis tinctly defined to prevent henceforth the accusation, iOOlll - renewed, that we incline now to one side, now to the other. — Sinceiitave been at the head of the government of France my policy has always been the same towards ltely—to second natiooal aspirations, to induce the Pope to become their support rather than their adversary in a word, to con solidate an alliance between religion and liberty. Since the year 1849, when the expedition to Rome was de cided upon, slimy linen, all my speeches, alt the despatches of my Ministate have invariably manifested that tendency, aid acoordiag to circumstances I base maintained it with a deep conviction, either at the heed of a limited power, as President of the Republic, or at the head of a victorious army on the banks of the Mind°. II efforts, 1 must own it., have hitherto bees thwarted by o of every description, in the presence of two parties diametrically opposed, absolute in their hatreds as in their convictions, deaf to the counsels inspired by the sole desire of their benefit. la this a reason not to penevere, and to abandon a canes grand in the opinion of all men, and which must be beneficial to the welfare of mankind It is urgent that the Roman question should be "tiled, for it is not only in Italy that it disturbs public opinion ; everywhere it produces the same moral disorder, because it touches %woe what is most dear to man—religious and po litical faith. Each party substitutes its own exclusive sentiment; in the place of the real principles of equity and justice. Thus, one psrty, forgetting the recognised eights of • power which has Inted for ten centuries, proclaims, without any con sideratioe for so ancient and acknowledged an institutiou,the fall of the Papacy ; 'amine party without regard for the legitimate claims of the right of ' peoples, owns with out a scruple • portion of Italy to eternal stagnation and oppression. Thus one party dipoles of • still existing power as if it was defunct, and the other of • people that supplicates for life, as if it was deed. However this may be, it is the duty of statesmen to study the means for reconciling two canna which the play of pession aloes has reodend knoosaileable. Should the attempt fail, it would not be inglottious, and, under all cir cumstances, there is an advantage in frankly declaring the object in view. That object is to coon to • combination by which the Pope would adopt what is great in the idea of a people that aspires to become • Indio° ; and, on the other band, that that people should recognise what is ealutary in a power the influence of which extends over the whole universe. On a prima fade view, considering the prejucliees sad hatreds, equally violent on either side, • favourable result seems to be despaired of. But it, the enatining into the question, reason and common sense are appealed to, it is gratifying to behave that truth, that Divine light, will haally penetrate into every mind, and show the supreme and vital interest which induces, which obliges the partisans of the two opposed causes to come to an understanding and to • recoociliatioe. First of all, what is the interest of Ital►? It is to put ' away from her every danger that threatens her, to diminish the enmity she has caused, to upset everything which op poses her legitimate ambition of reconstituting herself. To overcome so many obstacles the► must be taken coolly. Italy, as a DOW state, has against her all those who hold to the traditions of the past ; as a state which has called revolution to her assistance, she inspires distrust to all mu of order. They doubt her power to put down anarchical tendencies, and hesitate to believe that a society can firmly Lind a team upon the very elements which have upset so many others. Finally, at her very gates she has a formi dable enemy, whose armies sad ill will, easily understood, will fora long time be an imminent danger. Thew antagonisms, already so serious in themselves, become doubly so supporting themaelves upon the interacts of the catholic faith. The religious question adds con siderably to the gravity of the situation, and multiplies the adversaries of the new order of things established beyond the Alps. Not long ago the absolutist party was the only one opposed to it. Now, the majority of the catholic popu:ation in Europe are hostile to it ; and that hostility not only thwarts the beeevoleet inteutiosa of the govern ments attached by their faith to the Holy See, bat stops the favourable intentions of the protestant or schismatic governments who have to deal with a considerable fraction of their subjects. Thus, everywhere it is the religions idea which cools the public feeling for Italy. Her reconciliation with the Pope would obviate many difficultiaa, and rally round her millions of adversaries. OD the other band, the Holy See has an equal interest, if not a stronger one, in this reconciliation ; for, if the Holy See has zealous supporters among all hermit catholies, it has against itself all the liberals of Europe. ln politics it is looked noon as the represeetative of the prejudices of the uncle, rt"ginte, and in the eyes of Italy, as the enemy of her independence., the most devoted partisan of reaction. This is why the Pope is surrounded by the most violent adherents of fallen dynasties, sod this compsay is not of a nature to procure for him the sympathy of the people who upset those dynasties. Nevertheless, this state of things does less harm to the sovereign than it does to the heed of religion. In catholic countries, where new ideas have a great bold, men who are most sincerely attached to their faith feel troubled in their ecescience and doubts enter their minds, not blow ing how to reconcile their political convictions with religious pneciples which seem to condemn modern civilisation. If this state of things, so pregnant with danger, should be pro longed, there would be a risk of political dissension' leading to lamentable dissections is faith itself. It is, therefore, in the interest of the Holy See aa well as in that of religion that the Pope and Italy should be recon ciled : for it would be • reconciliation with modern ideas, it would keep 1.430,000,000 catholice within the pale of the church, and give • new lustre to religion by showing faith supporting the progress of mankind. Hitt upon what basis can so desirable a work be founded? The Pope, brought to a reasonable view of the state of affairs, would understand the necessity of accepting every ' thing which can bind him to Italy ; and Italy, ceding to the counsels of • wise policy, would not ream to adopt the guarantees moesaary for the independence of the Sovereign Pontiff, and for the free exercise of his power.

Onoge, N.J., Sept. 8, 1864. Geotlereen,—l have the honour to acknowledge the re ceipt of your letter, informing me of my nomination by the Democratic National Convention, recently assembled at Chicago, as their candidate at the next election for Presi dent of the United States. It is unnecessary for me to say to you that this nomination comes to cis unsought. I am happy to know that when the nomination was made, the record of my public life was kept in view. The effect of long and vaned service in the army, during war and peace, be. been to strengthen and make indelible in my mind and heart the love and reverence for the Union, constitution, laws, and flag of our country, impressed upon me in early youth. These feelings have thus far guided the course of my life, and must continue to do so to its end. The existence of more thee one government over the region which once owned oar flag is incompatible with the peace, the power, and the happicese of the people. The preserv►tioa of our Union was the sole avowed object for which the war was commenced. It should have been eon ducted for that object only, and in accordant* with those principles which I took omission to declare when in active service. Thus conducted, the work of reconciliation would have bean easy, and we might have reaped the benefits of our many victories on land and sea. The Union was origi nally formed by the exorcise of a spirit of conciliation and compromise. To restore and preserve it, the same spirit must prevail in our councils aid in the hearts of the people. The re-establishment of the Ueioo to all its int*. gray is, and must continue to be, the ind:rpensable condition in any settlement. So soon as it is clear or even probable, that our present advertence are ready for peace, upon the basis of the Cairo, we should exhaust all the resources of statesmanship practised by civilised nations, end taught by the traditions of the Ame rican people, consistent with the honour and interests of the country, to secure such peace, re-establish the Union. and guarantee for the future the constitutional rights of every State. The Union is the one condition of peace —we ask no mare. Let me add, whet I doubt not was, although unexpressed, the sentiment of the Convention, as it is of the people they represent, that when say one State is willing to return to the Union, it should be received at once, with a full guaranteed all its constitutional rights. If a frank, garbed, and persistent effort to obtain those objects should fail, the roopowdbAify for ulterior amompoposo will fall [stamped, ld. AdditionalA BRITISH ASSOCIATION FON. THE AD VANCEMENT OF SCIENCE. --•-- (nom oua OWN WORT.) BATH, THURSDAY. The proceedings of the Bath meetiug of the British Association are now practically brought to a close, there remaining for this day only two excursions. The gathering has been satisfactory to all concerned : to the mein ben and asamiatee,who have been gratified with the arrange ments, and the excellence of the papers read in the various sections—to the local officers of the association at Bath, who have the pleasure of redacting that their labours have been brought to so suocomfal a termination—to the people of Bath, who are glad that their ancient city has been honoured by the visit of so distinguished a body—and lastly, to all the numerous well umbers of the immolation, who re joice to hod that the interest generally felt in the meetings has not flagged, and that, with the erceptioo of one or two previous years, the subsaiptions have not been surpassed. Lest evening Mr. Tile, the member for Bath, gave a enmptuma banquet at t h e Guidhall to about 200 parsons. Hr. Tire pred, and amongst the company present were Sir C. Style, Bart., Admiral Su E.

Hebert, and Dr. Livioptons. The worthy host also addressed the foreign victors at considerable leagth is French. Professor KBANIZOIFF and M. Burnt severally acknow ledged the compliment, and replied to the observatioos of Mr. The In French. They expressed themaelves highly gra• tided at the reception they had received in this country, sad especially is Bath. Dr. LIVINGeITONR also returned thanks. He had experi enced' great deal of hospitality in the course of his travels —an aboadarice of kindness and hospitality from the Dutch, a great deal from the Portugmene, eras of which he should remember with gratitude se long as he lived. Some Frenchmen had also shows the utmost kindness to him. He had sever, however, met with • Russian ; but if he did, he believed he should receive equal kind ness from him. (Hear, hear.) Although he felt abundantly thankful at the mention of these diffe rent nations for the kindnesses they bad shown him, he con ferred he had a weakness that induced him to value the kindlier of an Englishman more than any oar else. When he went to a Dutchman's house he aerial where he came from ; where he was going ; what he was going to do ; if be were roamed, and, If he were not married, why he was not married, and when he was going away. The first question, however, his owa countryman asked him was, • What will you bare r (A laugh.) He immediately thinks of a man's comfort. His excellent host, being ac tuated with a similar feeling, had reminded him (Dr. Li viagstrie) of these various Dermal peculiarities. He looked upon him ari the real type of as Englishman, and is the weeds of one of the songs they had just heard, he said, " That's the man for me." (Loud cheers.) Alderman Cm., alluding to the success that had attended the Bath meeting, adduced the following statistical state meet, comparing the results of the past meeting at Bath with that of Newcastle rat year : Newcastle, Bath. Old life 2lO .. 191 Members Old associates New ditto Associates 1.719 .. 1,119 Ladies This he regarded as most satisfactory, especially when it was considered that Bath bad not, like Newcastle, an artisan population. (Loud cheers.) This morning a party of between two and three hundred persona started on an excursion to Bristol, pro ceeding by special train. One would hardly have thought that a visit to so dirty and smoky • place as Bristol would have been • great object of desire, but • change is always agreeable, and besides, an attractive . programme had been arranged. ind visits to various objects of interest, sad the Mayor ot Bristol in the mune of the eifizerie bad invited the visitors to luncheon at the Victoria Rooms, Clifton. Hence the rush for Yokota which was made at the Pump-room as soon as it was ensconced that the name of persons desirous of joining the excursion would be taken. Of wares the Victoria-rooms are limited in their capacity, and hospitable a the Mayor of Bristol may be he could not entartaio all the members of the association. A selection therefore was perforoe made, the principle we believe which guided it being to 000fioe the knee of tickets ad =Waft to the luncheon to the members who live at • distance from Bath sad Bristol. Any mem ber, however, was at liberty to join the excursion end esijoy all the advantages thereof barring the luncheon. On arriving at Bristol a deputation met the visitors, and a ',stigmas mounting a rostrum stated the Objects to be visited and pointed out the mode of proceeding. The places to be viaited,whith were inserted in the programme, are the following :—Mere.. Hare's Floor-cloth Maputo:Amy, St, Mary's Church, Radcliff. Mews: Pattenon's Ship Building Yord,TLe Hotwell's Boom, Yeasts. Final's Sugar Refinery, Misers. C. Thomas and Brothers' Soap Boding Works, the Council Hoops (where may be seen the city plate), the Exchange, the Commercial Room., the Athenaeum, the office of the Beirol Mirror, Mary.le-Port-street, St. Peter, Hospital, the Museum of the Baptist °Wage (in which are a rare portrait of Oliver Cromwell, sad a collection of old editions of English Bibles), the Hall of the Merchant Venturers, Queen-square. the Cathedral, the Mayor's Chapel, Steep street, the Bristol Inetitutiom, Breeden-bill, the Blind Asylum, the Volunteer Rifle Drill Hall and Club, the Fie* Arta Academy, the Volunteer Artillery Ground, the Zoolo gical Gerdes', the Clifton College, sod the Victoria Booms. It being obviously impoosible for any cue person to visit all the places spentiosed within the limited time appointed, a releetion was seminary. The party therefore split them selves into biota, some going one way and some another. The writer of this notice pot caring about floorcloth manu factories, nor shipbuilding yards, nor sugar refineries, nor soap works—none of these masufactories being of so uncom mon • character as to require • description—hied him to St. Mary's church, Radcliff, where he found a gentleman —described in the programme as • deputation from the Society of Architects—reading a long paper descriptive of the peculiar character of the church, which it seems is under repair and restoration, and has been so for 20 years, some thousand pounds • year being expended on it, and is a few tears it is expected that the restorations will be completed. Proceeding thence by omnibus to the Hotwell's House, Clifton, it war quite refreshing to sit beside • loquacious Jebu who described every remarkable on the road, sod many other things besides. tras especially eloquent on the inoonvenienoss sustained by the inhabitants of late from the failure of the water com pany to supply the town with water, and he pointed out many wells which are now being *period after having been closed for thirty years, from which the people are now draw ing a supply. In the river many of the ships were dressed with flags in honour of the occasion, as was likewise the battery at the top of Brandon-bill. On arriving at Hot well's House, a portion of the patty went to visit the Ashton Vale Iron Works, where they were met by the pro • ter, who kindly conducted them over the works, dseoribedthe various operations, and, moreover, invited the party to a cold collation, which he had hospitably provided for them. At half-pat 12 the whole party assembled °PIK. site the Hotwell's House, and from the numbers present we should think • great proportion of the excursionists ' had made their way thither. Amongst them we observed Profaner Phillips, the president elect. Mr. Sandra having mounted on • curious look ing structure on the bank of the river, and which we were informed was used as a rain gage, but which on this occasion was made to do duty as • rostrum, explained the geological object of the visit, which was to visit that section which waa called • coal basin, the peculiarity of which be described, the chief feature being that the basin was • valley or low ground surrounded by • range of hilla all the way round, containing modstone, grit, and shale, and were likely to contain bodies of iron. The hollow part of the basin was the coal field proper. Just as Mr. Sanders had concluded his short outline, Sir R. Morelli= and Dr. Livingstone came up. and the party started to view what in geological parlance is termed a "fault,* the fault in quiets= being mid to be an enormous one, and air Roderick Murchison and Professor Phillips dilated oa the geological character of the rock. While this interesting lee tura was being delivered a severe storm came on and wetted most of the party to the akin. A goodly proportion of them, however, made their way to the Susoenalea-bridge which is being emoted over the Avon, and where Mr. Hawkahaw, Civil Roemer, had undertaken to meet the party at half-jest two. As many of our reader, will be aware, this is a chain-bridge built out of the materials forming the bridge over the Thames at Huogerford Market, and which was taken down to make way for the present railway bridge, A few particulars of the bridge (we mean theme over the Avon), may be interesting. It will, when completed, connect the minutiae of Gloucester and Somerset, sod will save • detour of five miles. The history of the bridge is somewhat curious. A worthy citizen of Bristol, an Alderman Wick, first conceived the idea of the bridge, and • century or so ago he be queathed to the trustees 1,0001. to be accumulated until the rum was sufficient to erect a toll-free bridge. That sum did accumulate until it amounted to about 8,0001., but es that rom war totally inadequate, and the need of the =was pressiog, • company was formed, and an eat of eat obtained, and the first stone of the bridge waa LTWOPEN CE laid, in 105, by the Marquis of Northampton, when at Bristol at the meeting of the British Amociation. The capital of the company was 45,0001., including the 14,0001. obtained from the trustees. This was expended in the abnbeents, which are of the most massive character ; but the construction was then stopped for want of money. Thee it remained until the death of Mr. Brunel, the ori ginal designer of the bridge, when the Institute of Civil En gineers conceiving that the non-compistion of the work was a reflection on them, took the matter in band, and as about this time the bridge at Huagerfold was about to be taken down, and Mr. Hawkshaw and Mr. Barlow reporting that the iron of the bridge might be available for this, a new company wss formed, with a capital of 35,0001. The shares were all taken up, aid the contract for the erection of the bridgewasletto MessmCaehran andCo.,of Dadisy,and ander the superintendence of Mr. Thomas Ainy, the resident engi neer, the work is now so near completion that the bridge is expected to be opened at the end of next month. The bridge has 30 feet of roadway, beside, pathways on each side, and the total length is near 'NO feet. Ite height above high-water mark is about 230 feet. It has of coarse bat we span, the chains being let into the solid rock on each side. Its appearance thus being high in the air is not unlike Telford's bridge, over the Penal Straits. It seems very fragile, but is in reality very strong. The party were met by Yr. Hawkshaw, C.E.. who con ducted them over the bridge. After they bed impeded it they adjourned to the Victoria Booms, Clifton, where they ware regaled with what in the programme was modestly called a luncheon, bat which was in reality a sumptuous banquet.

Mr. Aytoun entered at length into the history of the Deno-German war, and expremed his ap proval of the policy of government in regard to the questions raised during that war. He advocated non-interference in China, and with rapid to the question of the colonies strongly urged that the mother country should insist upon their providing for their own defence by means of militia or local troor a With regard to the war in New Zealand, he thought that no support should be given to say further attempts to encroach upon the native territory.

Tenants objected on the ground that they had con fidence in their landlords ; and landlords were opposed to it, because they were anxious to retain their "power over the land." He repudiated the notion of a man putting his trust in his landlord, and advised him to treat the matter se any other commercial transaction would be treated, and to pet his trust in a written document. With reference to the landlord, if his power over the land referred to game, be thought that any man who kept an unnatural and excessive quantity ofgameorightto y for it— (hear)—and if its ferred to polities it was a mistake, and support so obtained was not likely to keep any party in permanent power. Landowners had it in their power to exercise the coercion of a warm friendship in leading their tenants to follow them to the poll—and he rather liked to see it—and, in ninety-Moe cases out of a hundred, the love of sport, which was inherent En Englishmen, would lead them to be content to have a fair and legitimate amount of game on estates. (Hear, boar-) He said that " the code " drawn up by the Vale of Evesham Society would prevent landlords' property from being im poverished, as some feared. Sir John concluded by quotiag figures from a paper presented to the Oxford Farmers ' Club by Hr. Sanderson, which proved that in the north farmers had offered much higher teats for farms on 21 years' lemma, and the farms let for long terms produced much more cattle and general produce than those held on abort tenancies.

MOH/ FA ILVHJIN At LEEDS—Two additional failures, consequent upon the stoppage of the Leeds Bank ing Company, have occurred. The bills of Mr. John Abra ham, of Aldormanbury. London, were returned yesterday (Wednesday) afternoon, the failure bang attributable, we believe, to the suspension of Messrs. Saalfeld Brothers, with whom Mr. Abraham was connected. This morning, Mr. J. North, on behalf of Messrs. Yewdsll sad Sons, opened a petition in bankruptcy against Messrs. Saalfeld. The debt of the petitioning creditors is not large, being only IZI., but we understand that, on behalf of the Leeds Banking Com p Loy, particulars of demand for upwards of 25,000 L, giving credit for the bills running, have been served upon the Messrs. Sealfeld, and the total amount of their liabili ties, it is supposed, will approach to the sum of 90,0001. The other failure is that of Mr. J. W. darsden, iroemmter, Leeds. It will excite no great sunrise, as it has bees fully expected since the bank stnwed. A letter, dated from Liverpool, was received in Log& from Marsden, stating that he found "all was up," and adding " Pm off to New York," sod as this was au act of bankruptcy, the directors of the Bank this morning presented • petition against him. The particulars of their claim amounted to 34,3951., but the Bank also bold Marsden 's dishonoured &centimese for about 12,0001., and it is expected that his total liabilities will be perhaps double the amount proved by the Bank. The Bank hold as security the mortgages of the Castle ford foundry and some other property, from which about 11,0001. may be realised, but under any ciscometancee the lies will be heavy. Only recently Marsden purchased an estate at Scarborough, and down to Sunday last he was seen in the town driers( in • carriage and pair. In the letter which he addressed to Leeds, be intimated that he had taken his pemegs to America, and that letters were to be addressed to him at New York, but we understand tbat precautions have been taken to pretreat him leaving the country. Not more thee five or six years sage, Marsden was iu the service of Messrs.
