W.C. DRAMA. DRURY-LANE. After eight yearn of absence in America and Aus tralis. Mr. G. V. Brooke has returned to England, and re.ap peered lest night in °Mello.

Time, though it certainly has not " worn him into slo miry," has had its effect on Mr. Brooke ; his figure is more portly, his voice much deeper and less meloilious, und he has acquit..d a set traditional form of expression, a thoroughly conventional intonation and mannerism, which detract terribly from his personal advantages. There tr but little to say of his performance, save that--uutoarked by any now lights—it was eminently respectable, and that the more loudly delivered passage+ had their duo effect on the denizens of the closely-packed tallerie.. Of the manner in which Mr. Brooke was supported it behove@ us to say as little as pnmible. Few country theatres could furnish either such bed acting or swat bad scenery as that put for went by " I ter Majesty's somata." HAYMARKET. The tragedy of King Richard M.

A soriona collision, by which her Majesty's steens•viaml Monkey waa much damaged, occurred in the harbour at tbree o'clock this afternoon. It appears that the Monkey was lying at her usual moorings, munedlately opposite the dockyard, when a laden brig came up the etreesu, and west completely out of her proper course, lining apparently unmanageable. The Monkey wee struck wish force by the brig, and carried away from tier one of her paddle-boxes was drives) is, her funnel vosisov•d, sod the vessel otherwise injured.

It is a peculiar kind of star fish, which, when brought up from the bottom of the water, and when any attempt is made to take hold of it, immediately throws elf all its arms—its very centre breaks up, and nothing re mains of one of the most beautiful forms in nature but • thousand wriggling fragments. Such undoubtedly would have been the fats of the Americas Union if its government had admitted what is called the right of secession. Gentle men, I think we ought to admit, in fairness to the Ameri cans, that there are somethings worth fighting for, and that national existence is one of these. (t'beer..) And then, gentlemen. if we go to the South, if we look at the matter from the Southern point of view, difficult aa it may be for us to do so I must say also that I am not surprised at their conduct. If they believe, sa they loudly proclaim that they do believe, that slavery is, not an evil which is to be tolerated only, and brought to an end as sun ea possible, lint a divine institution for the benefit of mankind. to be maintained, and if possible extended, and which, if it ie assailed even in • single outpost, must be defended to the death, then, even though the citadel of slaver, be not assailed, but only an important outwork, then it is but natural that the South should rise in its defence. But, of course, in this u in all other revolutions, those who take part in them must be judged finally by the moral verdict of mankind upon the justice of the cause which they have risen tosses& But whatever may be our private sympa thies, we, as • nation, must take no part whatever in the contest. Most earnestly do we trust and pray that it may I be brought to a speedy end ; yet 1 confess that there i an other wish which I think to our mind ought to stand even before this one, and that is the wish that the end of this war whenever it does come, be it soon or lat e , m a y b e suc h as s tall be worth the sacrifice nod, the cost--such sui shall teed to the civilisation of the world, and promote the cause of human freedom, (Chum) Several other toasts appropriate to the occasion were pro- j posed and responded to in the conies of the evening. BANQUE? PO PHD DUKE OP 41.110TLL. The Duke of Argyll war: entertained at a grand bempet in I overary, ow Friday e►ening, by his tenantry. The banquet was held in the Argyll Arms Hotel ; the Rev. Comm Siorit, fr. D.. in the Chair. Nearly eighty gentlemen sat down to an ele4ant repast. The formal toasts having been disposed of, The CHAIRMAN, in a eulogistic speeeb, proposed the health of their noble guest, which wee meet enthttenuitically responded to. The Duke of ARGYLL, in replying, and it was his first duty to assure them that he had been very mach gratified by the feeling which had induced them to invite him to meet them on that occasion. He had been all the more gratified from the fact that he believed that this was the first occasion on which any such meeting had Leen held un thin estate Ho did not of course put upon that any erroneous interpretation. He was sot vain enough to believe that he enjoyed more affection and attachment from those amongst whom he lived than other represents. fives of the family of Argyll bad done in former times. The truth was. that this was a modern form of expressing a very ancient feeling. (Cheers.) Scotland had now long been in a stele of profound peace, and there had been time for the old feelings created by the relations which existed between au old Highland chieftain and his tenants and retainers to take the more modified and modern form of the relations which new subsisted between • laud lord and his tenant. There were some writers of the present day —some writers on the science of political economy— who maintained that there was too much of the old feudal 1 feeling still remaining in the relations between landlord and tenant. They maintained that the proper state of things was that it should be • purely pecuniary arrangement—that the landlord should let his land for a certain period end for a certain rent, and that there should be no you of any other connexion than that which necessarily arose from this business relation between them. Perhaps this was not the place, nor were they the persons, who could discuss this question with entire impartiality. For his own part, it I was Lis firm belief that it was one of the great public advantages of this country that, whilst there had been a continued advance from one generation to another, yet the ideas of toda y were always modified, and took I tie form of tint old feelings and aaimeiations which have descended from former times; and he believed that the feudal element, which undoubtedly still did remain in the ordinary relations between landlord and tenant, was one of the great stieugths of the liberties of this country. (Cheers.) It gave local attachment, and in the strength of local at tachnient and local feeling there was, and there always had Teen, the best security agaiost th e inroads of a centralising tyranny. He said thin whether they referred to former or to present times, for whether those were away or not, of this he was quite certain, that the relation of landlord and tenant was not and could not in its own nature be one of • merely and purely pecuniary kind. Why, even if they only took the ordin ar y case o f th e leases in Scot land, which, as they were all aware, were run from nineteen to twenty years, that wan a period which if a man entered upon in middle lase, the chances were that be would out see the end of it. And he need hardly tell many of thine whom he saw now present, that with regard to the smaller clans of tenantry, who hail not and never had a lease in the country, their tenure had very onto been much more permanent than that of those who bad had lemma. (Applause.) There were tenants hi that room who had been on this estate, he believed, for ninny generations— for some centuries—is fact, from time immernoriaL The relation between landlord and tenant, therefore, whether they looked at it with reference to the large tenements coder lease, or with reference to the small tenements, was in ita nature an almost permanent relation, and it was im poen. ride that, in such • relation, there should notarise, and there ought not to arise feelings of mutual regard, and he might say of mutual dependence, which were wholly differeut from those which sprang froai a purely mercan tile transaction. (Loud applause.) At the same time, the observation which were made upon this subject in the press, and by writers upon political economy, ought to teach them that the public had an interest in the relations between the landlord and his tenant. Of course, the public had also an interest in the relations which existed between the muter manufacturer and his men ; and he need hardly tell them that in the present day some very difficult and awkward ques tions had actually arisen between those who em ployed labour and those who laboured. But there was something in the very permanence of the connexion and in the universality of land over the whole area of the country which attached and fixed public attention more upon the relations between landlord And tenant than on the relations betwor n mere capital and labour, and it is right and natural that this should be so ; and he thought therefore that, on all public occasions of this sort—agricul tural dinners where tenants and laoillonla meet—they should not merely meet fur the purpose of complimenting each other, however natural and right such feelings might be, but that they should take that opportunity of explain ing to each other, sod of explaining to the public, 130 w far they were contributing to the general welfare of the country sod performing the duty which lay upon them, Loth as Ithdlools end as tnnanta. (Cheers.) His grace then re ferred to the state of agriculture in the county of Arun. From the late census it appeared that during the but thirty years the population of the county had decreased by nearly 20,000 souls, being a decrease of very nearly 20 per cent, upon the total autouut of pipulation. Other counties hail diminished, but not in the same ratio. The population on the chores of the Frith of Clyde having undoubtedly very largely increased, they must come to the conclusion that the decrease in the purely rural and purely agricultural part of the county had certainly been not lees than from 25 to :10 per cent. That was a very re. markable fact, but he found that, coincident with this de crease of population, there bad been an Menem in the valuation of the county to a very much larger extent. In the sixtoeu years from 1144 the increase in the value 44 the county had been no less than 73,A001. a-year—equal to 10 por cent. ; and he could not for a moment doubt that if they took in the other periods from Mil to 1144, the increase io the value of the county had been no leas thee 50 per cent. Now, what were the in ferences which they were to draw from thoms curious fats? Undoubtedly, an increase in the valuation of • county did not mean merely an increase in the rent* which were derived by the landlords ; it meant increased prints tar the tenant., increased knowledge, increased Maus. try, iocresseil skill ; it meant, above all, so increased con tribution towards that surplus of human food which went to support the remaining pnpolations of the country. His gra-ro then pointed out the great importance of the proper &outage of the land, and proceeded to say—l hope, although there are some misgivings in the aspect of public affairs at present. that agricultural produce may still main tain such prices as fairly to remunerate the cultivator of the soil. We have now learned, I think, all of us, whatever political party we may have formerly belonged to, that we must look for the pmsperity of agriculture to the prosperity of the manufacturing industry of the country. So long as thee are prosperous and the demand is great, there is no question whatever that agricultural industry will proper and succeed. Unfortunately, it is too true that there are tames at present in operation which seem to cat some gloom over the prospects of the manufacturer. of our country ; and it is • very remarkable example of the inti mate connexion which commerce has established between the most distant regions of the globe, that we are now in considerable anxiety, arising from 'mute taking place many dimmede of miles hem us across the great Atlantic. see that there has been some fear expressed lately that the inconvenience which is likely to arise in this country from the contest in America is so great that there will be a pressure put upon the government to interfere is that contest, or at least to take some steps which may nlti• mutely involve us in it. I have too high an opinion of the good sense end of the public principle of the people of this country to believe that any such pressure will be put upon the government ; and I mint add that i have ton great confidence in the fimmess and public principle of the go vernment and parliament of this country to believe that they will be willing to submit to such pressure if it were put upon them. It is our absolute duty, I need hardly tell you, to remain entirely neutral in that contest--(applause)— anil not only is it our duty to remain neutral as regards action, but I think it is to a very great extent our duty seem to abstain from offering advice, though it might be enoixived in a kind and friendly spirit. No goal' whatever can arise from offering such advice as that, for example, which was lately offered, I have no doubt with the best intentions, by the Emperor of Russia to the contending parties in America. The answer which the Americana will infallibly give to any such inter ference will, however civilly expressed, virtually amount to thin—" We are much obliged to you for your kind advice. ' We have no doubt that it is conceived in the best spirit, and with the beet intentions ; but there is a general rule is this world that every man should attend to his own affairs. And there is this additional reason for doing so in the present case, that it is quite evident that you don't understand ours." That is the answer which virtually the Americans have actually given, and which, I am convinced, they will continue to give, to all such counsel. Bemuse, after all, the troth is this, that mere general advice to coin- , pose their differences, without any specific suggestion as to the terms upon which thine differences are to be adjusted, is always held by the Americans to imply indirectly, eves though it be not inteudel, that the objects for which they are contending are either unworthy. or at least trivial and unimportant. (Hear, hear.) Now, whatever we may think of that contest, in Wrote. to nor American friends we ought to admit that no more tremendous ileum were ever submitted to the dread arbitrament of war than those which are now submitted to it up. n the American continent. Ido not care whether we look at it from the Northern or from the Southern point of view. Take the mere question of what is called the right of secession. I know al an government which has ever existed in the world that could possibly have admitted the right of secession from its own allegiance. There is a curious animal in Loch fine which I have sometimes dredged up from the bottom of the see, and which performs the most extra- THE THREATINED ?AMINE IN IRELAND. The Iri4l. Times reiterates its warning of an ap proaching famine in the West, and recommends government to alleviate its horrors by employing the people at drainage and other public works. It rays :—" We regret to fled that ' our statements respecting the probability of dearth and suffer ing in the west of Ireland have been officially confirmed. A public meeting of the gentry end clergy of Crionemara was held on Wednesday, in the Court-house of Clifdeo. Mr. George Robinson, J.P., of Ballinahinch Castle, occupied the chair. The requisition for convening the meeting was signed by gentlemen of influence in the locality, and of all creeds and parties. The resolutions, unanimously passed, declare that the cereal crops are far belnw the average ; ' that • two-thirds of the potato crop are diseased, and the rest unfit for food ; that what grain there is 'is serioraly damaged by the constant rain,' and that already 'a scarcity of fuel exists.' The meeting decided that th ese facts should be embodied in • memorial to be laid before the Executive, praying for a timely interposition on the part of government to prevent the recurrence of famine and the sacrifice of life. Government might do much IT opening reads through the beautiful but almost unexplored mountains of Coonemarn; much might be done in the way of drainage and other public works." The Kilkenny Moderator rya, !speaking of harvest pro epoch;:—" Potatoes, in strong retentive moil or cold wet dis tricts, are in many instances so bad that they would scarcely pay the expenses attending the digging of them out." rho /foram Whig says :—" The partial failure of the potato crop this season has fallen with great severity on the small farmers and day labourers of Connaught. and, as usual, the cry fur government aid is raised by those who abuse the Samos in favourable seasons and beg from them iu unfavourable ones. The live counties of the went com prise an area of nearly four and a half millions of acres. Of them, only about eight hundred thousand acres are under crop, all the remainder being either wholly or par tially waste. With what ideas of right can men, who should know better, cell on the government for assistance towards the relief of the poor, while the raw material of comfort and independence lies at their very doom, awl while the legitimate sources of charity withhold their contributions We are well aware that in 1822, anal in Mil, as well u in 1847, daring the terrific visitation of famine, the resident gentry of the west, lay and clerical, displayed the utmost liberality in their aid of local destitution ; and it is also well known that then, as now, the absentee owners of laud did very little in the same cause. Most unjust, then, is the current cry for state Resistance now ringing in different portions of Connaught. We grant that the potato disease has prevailed largely thin mason, that it has destroyed much more of the crop than was so carried off in any rear ADM 1846; but it must not be forgotten that the yield of all qualities, good awl bad, is very large. and that, if a full third of the whole be lost, the remainder would give a moderate yield, at least in all wellaituated lands. Hut are the other three provinces not likely to suffer equal loss in their potato lands ? Of course they are, and equally cer tain it is that no appeal from the people of ouch sections of this island will be made to the British government. It is sad - any it is more than sad—to think that the inha bitants of any part of the British isles should be sacrificed to the misery of periodical famine. There is nothing in herent in the lands of Connaught, nor is there anything in the atmosphere, the climate, or the people themselves to induce the existence of poverty as a chronic disease. On the contrary, the soil of a great portion of the whole ia good, and the climate favourable ; arid as to the natives, we know that some of the mo.t industrious and some of the moat prosperous of the colonists of Canada, of the once United States, and of the denizens of the Awitra. lien Wen, first drew breath in the West of Ireland. Half the labour and toil that have been exeencled by Connaught. men on the prairies of America and the plains of New South Wales would have made the sow neglected lands of Galway and Mayo smile in all the luxuriance of fertility, had the system of land-tenure been such as to stimulate exertions, and had the curse of absenteeism not halm over the land. Depopulation, rack-rents, neglected cultivation, awl absentee landlonlism have produced their natural result.. These are matters worth consideration, especially at this time, when the wail of famine is again heard from the very quarter of Ireland winch teems with the sources of agricultural prosperity. With regard to the cause of the potato disease, it will not be out of place here to state that at • meeting of the Holley and South Hants Formals' Club last week, Mr. Lucas, the sculptor of Sir Isaac Witten statue at Southampton, was in troduced to bring before the club an account of some ex periments he had made on the growth of potatoes, with the i view of preventing disease. He said that in a rotten potato might be found some of the workings of the great law of nature. The disease was caused by an excess of damp, which prevented the maturing of starch in the tuber. Ten ' years ago, at Otterbourne, he endeavoured to prevent such an excess of moisture; it WA on a clay land that he first tried the experiment ; it mu simple, and for ten successive years it had been effectual. Lurked of digging a trench to put in the tubers, the ground was manured -too much manure would bring too much green and too httle tuber— ' stable litter was put on the top o f the ground ; on the top of the litter the whole potatoes were placed, IS inches apart between the seta, and the same distance betweee the rows The first hoeing between covered the seed ; another hoeing removed as much of the soil from the bottom to the top that an efficient drainage was the result ; anal where he had treated land in this manner, either on the clay land of the paten at Otterbourne, or on the hog he occupied at Chilworth, he never had a rotten potato, while from some of the whole potatoes he placated the result was at least a produce of one gallon. This having been his ex perience, it gave him much pleasure to communicate it to le club which had at hoist the advantage of the country. The process was very simple • no science or skill was required ; and it was within all their opportunities to try the experimest. The epidemic in the potato first arose from the great excess of moisture ; his experiments hail been made with • view to counteract it. In reply to members be mid the potatoes might be ploughed instead of hoed, the rows being 18 inches apart. After a diaciussion on what Mr. Lucas bad communicated, the following resolution was unanimously carried :—•• That it is the opinion of this n:eeting that the mode of planting potatoes adopted by the introducer, Mr. Lucas, viz., that of placing the seed in a row on the surface previously manured, and then covering them by the hoe or the plough, with the view of preventing an excess of moisture awl the manifestation of the disease, is reasonable in itself and well worthy of thu attention and experiment of the club."

(Stamped, Id. Additional.) AMERICA. We yesterday gave a telegraphic summary of the news brought by the Niagara, which left New York on the 15th October. 1 The New York Herald of that date describes the situation of affairs as follows : A alight ekinnish occurred yesterday on the line of the Potomac between a foraging party of the Union troom about three miles from Minom-hill, and a band of rebel scents consisting of infantry and cavalry. Our troops opened a brisk lire on the rebels, who took shelter in a house, but a few shells from the batteries on Minois-hill drove them out and seat them scampering along the Lees burg-road. One of our special correspondents who rode along the lines yesterday reports the army in 1100 condition, ready for action, but perfectly undisturbed by the enemy. The government has come to the determination to open and keep open the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad from Har per's Ferry to Wheeling, and has detailed General Lauder for that service. This measure will keep communication intact with our forces in Western Virginia. and is an impor tant step. Some of the regiments at Damestown, Maryland, are pre paring their winter quarters, erecting stables for the horses, and excavating cellars for the protection of their tents. We learn from Richmond papers that the property of Northern men owned in Virginia, which has been contented under the Rebel Sequestration Act, since the 30th Septem ber, amounts to 800,000 dole. Among the victims are August Belmont, C. X. FR , and Co.. Mrs. Sigourney, and Francis Rives, of this ciito tLt,:hickering and Co., and William C. Rives, jun., of Considerable trouble is said to exist among the leaders of the rebel camp ; and the recent military operations of Generals Floyd and Wise have brought these gentlemen into disgrace. The Richmond Enquirer is particularly severe on Floyd. It is reported that John Slidell, of Lousiana, and ex Senator Mason, of Virginia, have been appointed by the rebel government commissioners to Paris and London, and that they have actually taken their departure in a vessel which ran the blockade from some Southern port. This fact would argue that the commis sioners already in Europe have beau unsuccessful in their mission. General. Fremont was at last &remota readto start from Jefferson C ity in pursuit of the rebel h ice,but was said to be greatly embarrassed for want of means of transportation. According to the story of a deserter front General Price's army, the latter was at Johnston, Bata; County, pushing on for the South. He says that the greatest dissatisfaction exists among the rebels, and that many of them would de sert uuly that their offieers have impressed them with the idea that they will be inevitally hung as traitors if they are caught, and have terrified them with stones of the hor rible depredetions which the Union troops are committing in Miamonri. The Washington correspondent of the New York Tribrow, under date Oct. 14, writes : Before leaving St. Louis this morning, the Secretary of War, by letters ordered General Fremoot to discontinue as unnecessary his field works around the city, and that which be is erecting at Jefferson City, to suspend work on the barracks ha is building near his residence for his body guard of 300 cavalry, and ordered him to employ all the money in the hands of the disbursing officers to the payment of the consist expenses of his army in Missouri, and to let all his debts in St. Louis, amounting to 4,60U,0UU dole., remain unpaid until they can be properly examined and sent to Washington for settlement. He also ordered that the disbursing officers should disburse their funds, and not transfer then. t.. irresponaible agents, persons who do not hold commissions from the Preeident, and are not under bonds ; and he further ordered that hereafter all contracts necomary to be made, be made by the regular disbursing °diced of the army. General Fremont wee also informed that payment would not be made to officers appointed by him. It is said there are over 200 of them whose commis sions du not bear the President's signature, and that Pay master Andrews bad been verbally instructed nut to make such payments. Special exception was made in favour of officers of volunteers. The number of forts planned by General Fremont for the &fence of St. Louis is eleven. Relative to drains in Mexico, the Washington correspondent of the New York lierstkl says : The intelligence from our Minister to Mexico, received some days ago, is highly important. The Mexican govern ment, it appears, asked directly of our government for • loan of from live to ten millions. Our Minister regarded it as very important that Mexico should have the money, as it would place her in • positioo to relame her from her pre sent embarrassments. The government here are not in a condition, even if they had the authority, to lend Mexico that amount of mosey. They have probably notified our Minister that three or four millions might possibly be liatl, to be applied, as Mexico de sired to apply it, to pay interest on the English louds, and thus relieve her from that trouble. Our government is determined to stand by Mexico at all hazords and protect her against the encroachment& of foreign powen. Our government accordingly some time ago addres e l proper commueicatious to Englund, France, and Spain, to know what their intentions were respecting the contemplated expedition against Mexico. They have received no response as yet. When they do, our government will find time to act. The New York Herald observes, however : We do not see that the United States have any just cause to fled fault with the proposed action of England, France, and Spain. It is full time that Mexicans were taught that anarchy is sot only suicidal, but that it is also violative of the righta and interests of all other nations. The Washington correspondent of the New York Tribune writes : A number of changes are taking place in the British lega tion. Mr. Irvine, secretary of legation, is about to depart for England, whither Mr. Jcuuer went some time since. Mr. Ware. leaves in November. Mr. Sheffield, a newly arrived attache, has been compelled by illness to go to Canada. Mr. Anderson, one o the chief clerks in the Foreign.office, has been despatched to this country to assist Lord Lyons, who has now but two secretaries—Messrs. liroche and Monson. The following particulars of tho proposed naval expedition to the Southern coast aru furnished by the New York Tinges: The great naval expedition that has been in course of preparation at his port for some weeks begins to.ussume colored proportions. The steamers Cahawha and Coat xucoaloas sailed on Saturday evening, carrying the Rhode island Regiment, lately encamped at Fort Hamilton, be. steles a force of experienced surf men with their boats. Yes terday morning the Star of the South followed, having on board Colonel Serrell's Lnguieer Regiment, previously an nounced an having gone to Wsahingtoo. This regiment numbers !WO men, all of whom are practical engineers or mechanics. _ _ . During the day the transport. Ocean Queen, Eagle, I)auiel Webster, Ariel, laid Oriental also sailed on the mune errand. The remiunder of the fleet will probably leave to-da. The y transport Rhode Island yesterday afternoon went down as far as quarantine, and anchored. It is underetool that the fleet will rendesvous at Anna polis, where it is stated the number of troop. will be largely augmented, including infantry, artillery, and cavalry. Among the troop* who are to participate in the expedi tion is Colonel Wilsou's regiment, that passed through here last week. It is impossible to give a full list of the Tamale that will compose the fleet, Rs many of them leave other pert. besides New York. Among those that sail from this port, beside. the ones ebovemeutioued are the Wabash Hag-ship, the 'metaled,. Ottawa and Unadilla, transporta Baltic, Atlantic, Caliawba, Vanderbilt, Empire City, Paters burgh, Roanoke, Croat Republic ; steamships Augusta, .lama Adler, Florida, Curlew, Alabama, Mercury, O. 11. Petits, hoods. large numb er of other craft of various, dimensions. The Atlantic and Baltic, and others among the transports, have guns mounted. Some idea may be formed of the magnitude of the expedition wheu it is stated that one of ll:transports, the Daniel Welsoxr, orrice little else but water far the troops. Of the destination of this large force, of course, wo have nothing to say. The Washingtml Cur/wow/ea of the Anaocia tea Frees, uudcr date Oct. 14, writes The commissioners of the World's Fair organised to-day by the election of Secretary Seward, chairman, and super intendent of the Census ; Kennedy, secretary. Of the 13 commissioners, Mr. Edward Everett only was absent. He sent a letter of excuse. A committee was appointed to wait on the President with a request that he would send a national vessel to England to convey such goods as Amencan emtrilaitors may desire to exhibit. A correspondent of the Richmond Despatch, writing from the Confederate Camp on the Potomac, nye : The most ilivpiriting news which has ever reached our camp is that we may probably go into winter quartem on this side of the Potomac, than which nothing could be more dis►ppointing and dissatisfactory to the Southern soldiers, with the uomurmuriug patience which they have endured the diseases that have decimated their numbers and all the privations and wants of a drat comma, and now that a benign Providence has rebuked the disease, and health and vigour again returned to our ranks, they cannot appreciate the policy which would keep 230,000 Southern men—a number sufbcient to do almost anything—enclosed in ice and snow live or six months, to defend Virginia alone. The Diario de kt Marina, of the 24th September, contains some interesting intelligence from Vene zuela. General Paez had been officially called [TWOPENCE upon to resign his command of the army into the hands ,of the government. The veteran general at once acceded to the demand, expressing his determination, at the same time, to leave for a foreign country as soon as the government would be ready to liquidate his demands against the pub lic treasury. In resigning his command General Paez addressed a touching letter to the government, in which he expred the hope that posterity will judge him justly. The steamship Champion, from Aspinwall•on the sth inst., arrived at this port yesterday evening. The news from the South Pacific is interesting. Mosques is reported blocked up in the City of Bogota. It was reported that the entire state of Cauca had declared against Moequera and in favour of Arboleda. The latter had expressed his deter mination to bang prisoner for prisoner for as many as his opponent may execute. No further tidings were heard of the privateer Sumter. It is reported from Jamaica that the seeds sent the Jamaica Cotton Growing Company to the President of the Hanover Society of Industry, for distribution, have not turned out as well as was expected, and that much labour has been lost in the preparation of land from which profitable crops were anticipated. The Peistoetta Post states that many of the small settlers in Hanover have resolved to obtain a supply, and to persist in the experiment. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. NEW YORK, Oct 15. Stocks easier.

LORD MAYOR'S DAY—A meeting of the Lord Mayor's and Sheriffs Committee has been held, at which it was determined that the civic pageant this year is to be provided upon the most liberal stele. The route of the pro , cession horn Guildhall to Wedminster-hall, as agreed to by the committee, will be as follows. It will leave Guildhall at about 12 o'clock. and will pass downiffing-strect, Cheapside, Poultry, Cornhlll, Leadenhall•etreet, Fenchurch-street, Graceciiurcb•etreet, Queen-street, round St. i'nud's•cburch yard. and up Heat-street, by the Strand, and up Parliament-street to Westminster. The arrangements for the fitting up of the Guildhall for the banquet on Lord Mayor's Day will be carried out under the direc tion of Mr. Bunning, the City architect. The decorations have born entrusted to Mr. R. Fenton. At the eastern end of 64,1101. over the Lord Mayor's chair, and beneath the Prince of Wales' feathers, beautifully spun in glass, a large painting of the Great International Exhibition of lefi2, and • painting of the Durham Monument, will b.• placed. At the other end of the h►ll the glair star of Mr. Alderman Copeland will be exhibited, and also • painting of volun teers in the several Metropolitan Rifle Corps ; and within medallions, underneath this transparency, the names of the several members of the London Rifle Brigade to whom pri,es were awarded by the Lord Mayor, at the Crystal Pala.-e, on last Saturday week, will be plated. It has 'been under consideastion whether the members of the London Rifle Brigade, or other rifle corps, shall take part in the procession ; but the committee have not yet decided whe ther this shill' be so or not. Tess NEW EDUCATIONAL MINUTE. —On Friday evening the annual soirie to Dr. Morell was held in the New Jennelem Schools, Peter-street, Manchester. Up wards of 150 British nod Denominational echoed teachers were present. After tea, Mr. Device, 8.A., inspector of British schools, was called to the chair. He offered a few preliminary remarks, and then called upon Dr. Morell, who said that as the subject of the new code appeared to have occupied the attention of teachers, he should be very glad if they could point out to him, as coucisely as possible, the exact points in it which they consi•lered objectionable to the advancement of education. Several teacher* pointed out what they, from experiment, considered would be the result of the operation of the new cod.; and all appeared to concur that the "grouping ac coidinr to age for examination" would present an unfair evidence of the proficieucy of any school. Some of the teachers considerel that, if the new code removed the coin pliedions from the Education-office, it would entail grievous complications ou the schools, and would cause schoolmasters to spend much valuable time, which would otherwise be given to teaching. in the registering of result. mid the keeping of complicated statistiasl accounts. Thus the schoolmaster would become a kind of book-keeper rather than a teacher. . . Cr.rierAL PALses.—At Blondin's performance yesterday a momentary terror was caused by the sudden snapping of the balance pole, which fell in two pieces into the organ. The leas, however, seemed to have no effect upon the performer, fur he at once made his way to the end of the rope, where a new pole was brought, and the ro maiuder of the programme proceeded with. Blondin's en r,ageinent terminates with he thirty.third ascent on Thurs day next. He will on this occasion repeat his benefit per formances. and give two ascents, one on the interior, the other on the exterior rope, at three and six o'clock. The latter will afford the opportunity for repeating the extra ordinary display of fireworks by Bloodiu during his passage aloud the rope, similar to those prepared for his benefit on the ith inst., the effect of which was marred by the dense fog which then set in. LICENSED VILTUALLEItIe SCHOOL.—Dr. David Roberts, of Great Dover-street, Southwark, has been elected reedical officer for this institution in the rorm of Mr. Odling (father of Dr. Wm.

A font race, which has excited • good deal of interest of late in sporting circles, took place at the St. Helena Gardens, near Birmingham, yesterday afternoon. It was a four miles haodimp for a silver cup of 25f., and other mire money. The competitor, were Mills. who appeared at "scratch," Deerfoot at 50 yards, Roberta and Iticheola at 440 yards. There were between three and four thousand persons pre sent. The start took place at ten minutes past four o'clock, the running ground being a gravel path surrounding • kind of bowling-green. Deerfoot ran steadily, and after three-fourths of the ground bad been gone over, passed Roberta and Richards. Mills gradually pined ground upon the Indian, and once approached bim within half-a-score yards, but the " Deer" mended his pace, which he seemed to be able to do when mindful ; he kept his lead and won. Mills fell out • few yards before the end, seem ingly a little distressed. When the running finally ceased, Richards was in the second place, the men having, it was stated. run • " lap" over of 205 yards. Roberta bad given up earlier. Betting between the third and fourth rounds, itol on Deerfoot. Mills, however, looked winning all through the race. The race occupied 21 minutes 42 seconds.
