LONDON, WEDNESDAY, NOV. 5, 1862. The political movements iu America continued to be as important as those of the armies—perhaps more scL The latter, as we hear of them by the City of New York to the 20th, are favour Able to the Yederals. The army of the Potomac, indeed, ap pears e. S unable to advance, as the politicians, for their own reasons, are desirous that it should. Putting liortb•ern and Southern accounts together, we gather that General LEE has suffered too much to be able to attempt another inroad into Maryland, or to make the attack on M'CLELLAN, but that he is I :l4ite strong enough to hold his position against sul as Y . _attack th e l a tt er may ma k e on h i m. In so far the C onfederates are chiefly concerned to defend they may bo regarded as the successful aide, while M .TLELLAN cannot venture to assail th "e• In Kentucky and the west the Federals are ralOte thei succ essful.

Indeed it would seem to be on account of the di s . satisfaction felt with BUELL for allowing them to escape at all, that he has been superseded b y XOSENCRANZ iu Kentucky. The Southern papers rece i ve d by the mail previous to this, told 1111 that the comp lete success of ItosExcßANz at Corinth would prove disastrous to the Southern cause in Kentucky an d Tennessee; the changes to confirm this, since reported appear ~o r inth and its -we find the Federals • quitting neighbourhood, neighbourhood,hood, and their su c c essful general ta kin g the command of the Kentucky army. Nashville, 5n Tennessee, is however said to be cut off from the North, but it appears to be a mere _guerilla move ment, and the probability seems to be tha t Ken" 'tucky and Tennessee are substantially in the hands of the Federals. C4W Tile politictd news if' more chequered and exciting than the military news. The North is in the midst of a severe contest between the Re publicans, contending for the position they had gained through Democratic divisions, and the De mocrats, now uniting again under the pressure of political adversity. Of course, it must be an incon venience to Mr. LINCOLN to have the party who opposed his election predominant in Congress. They cannot eject him from office before the termination of his four years; they cannot even displace his Ministry, for the American Cabinet is not respon sible to Congress. But they can refuse any legis lation he may deem desirable. If a majority, they could probably hinder his proclamation of Emanci pation on the Ist January from taking effect, since its language seems to imply that he looks to Congress to give him power to carry it into effect. If confi dent, however, of the military necessity of emanci pation, as he represents it through Mr. SEWARD to be a purely military measure, he could carry it out in virtue of his office as " Commander-in- Chief of the United States Army." Still it would be a great obstruction to the PRESIDENT to have to carry on his plans in the face of a hostile majority in Con gress. We do not anticipate so great a change, however, as this, but by this time the democratical minority will have gained a large accession of strength. In a letter received by this mail from a gentleman, in 'whose fidelity to facts we have great confidence, we are informed that " elections have just been held in several States, and the Democrats have gained largely. This arises from the fact that in many places the Repub licans have abandoned their own candidates to show their approval of Democrats who have taken a true stand in relation to the war. The Democrats chosen are all DOUGLAS men, and are pledged to a vigorous prosecution of the war. However, we cannot dis guise the fact that the results are unfavourable to the anti-slavery side. The Republicans have lost several members of Congress, and at the same time have defeated some of their worst enemies, VALLAN DIGHAM of Ohio among the number. Elections in other States will soon come off, and some of the strongest men in the land are in nomination. In New Jersey the famous Dr. 0. A. BROWNSON, the editor of the Review which bears his name, has been put up. In New York Mr. BANCROFT, the his torian, is in nomination. As near as can be ascer tained now the Democrats gain two Congressmen in Pennsylvania, six in Ohio, and two in Indiana. In Pennsylvania the Republicans have probably elected their State ticket, while the Democrats have succeeded in Ohio and Indiana by heavy majorities. In neither of these States was the chief magistrates voted for, the election being for minor executive officers. The vote turned in many cases on local matters." Ohio has always been a stronghold of Democracy. . Pennsylvania, except when a tariff is at stake, could never be relied on to vote for the North or liberty. It is a border State, and the Quakers have long lost their ascendancy there. It takes very mild views of slavery. It looks chiefly to the profit of Southern trade as it was; it returned BUCHANAN, under whose Presidency the present rebellion was hatched, and Indiana is alsJ influenced by its proximity to Kentucky. The Derby of the Northern elections appears, however, to be one yet to come off, that 1 for the Governorship of the State of New York. Brooklyn, where the New York navy yard is situ ated, must be the very Hyde Park of the excite ment. We read first of large meetings held there to endorse the PRESIDENT'S proclamation, and' denouncing the union as it was." The next morning's telegrams tell of a Democratic meeting held. in the same place pledging the Democrats to " restore the Union as it was," to maintain the Constitution as it is, and denouncing arbitrary arrests and interference with the freedom of the press. The Proclamation of Emancipation is de clared to be " unwise in policy, and bad in prin. ciple, securing an united South but making a dis united North." , This view of the Proclamation is undoubtedly too true. Mr. LINCOLN hears no news in this declara tion. He knew that not only all the Democrats would be against it, all of them being pledged to the South and slavery, but that a great many of his own Republican supporters, in their intense aversion to negroes, would share the Democratic feeling. All the Irish, who are the advocates of slavery at Rome, in America, and everywhere ex cept in Ireland, would all be irritated by it ; they dread, moreover, the competition of the negroes in labour, although, with absurd inconsistency, one great argument against emancipation is that the negro, if free, will not work! But the great majo rity of the Republican party—Mr. HORACE GREELY being their chief leader—have come to the full be lief that the alternative with the North now is, emancipation, or submission to the South. They are, doubtless, right. The only pity is that they did not see this when Fort Sumter fell. Mr. LINCOLN, scrupulous in observing his constitutional oath, even towards rebel States, began the war on the principle of sparing the " domestic institution" of the South. He never wished, as he told the country in his inaugural address, to interfere with slavery where it was already established. His party held the same view. And, even now, they would gladly sa ve slavery, if they could spare it an d conquer. see to be impossibl e . H ence Mr. n T hiTh i s LINCOLN'Sthe now only alternative was to issue the procla mation, or to affront his own party. It is a partial failure. It cannot satisfy the Abolitionists ; and they denounce, reasonably enough, his m a ki ng slavery a reward i n l o yal States, and emanc i pation a punishment for di slo y al ones. As the r esult of the whole, Mr. LINC OLN ma y find himself much crippled in his plans w hen Congress re-assembles. His own party em b arra sses him as mu c h as hi s opponents; they are eve n now planning for th e • Governors of the States to meet a g ain and demand the dismissal of M'CLELLAN. How can the North wonder amid all this at the col dness of European such a false sympathy. tlf it will offer to the world issue as the South fanatically fi g hting for slavery, and the North, at best, divided about fighting against it—How can the latter abuse " Anti- Slavery England" for giving its moral influence to neither. To neither, certainly, can it g i ve its moral approbation. An adventurous young lady, an Englishwoman, by name Miss ELIZABETE GARRETT, the daughter it appears of a gentleman in independent circum stances, has but very recently been endeavouring, at the University of St. Andrews, to realise upon a small scale, that is in her own individual instance, the graceful day-dream dreamt a very few years since by Mr. TENNYSON, and charmingly related by hira in his Po e ti c M e d ley of " The Princess.

Tha nks to this energetic person the difficulty now referred to has at length for ever been (in parliamentary phrase) thoroughly ventilated. It can no longer be blinked. It must be taken into account frankly and seri ously as a matter to be discussed in sober earnest. Before penning, however, another syllable in re ference to Miss GARRETT and her doings in the Northern University, we will let our contemporary, the Scotsman, :recount in precise terms the exact nature of these proceedings. Says the Scotsman, " A young English lady, Miss ELIZABETH GAR RETT, the daughter of a gentleman of independent fortune, who has educated herself highly in classics and in some of the physical sciences with a view to the study of medicine, visited St. Andrews during the summer, and intimated her desire to become a student in several of the classes during the winter." A proficient already in classics and in some of the physical sciences, the would-be physicianess on arriving at St. Andrews, we learn, " Received de cided encouragement from some of the professors, and others were understood to say that they would offer no opposition to her becoming a student. They were all very gallant except, we believe, Professor FERRIER, whose strong conservative tendencies led him to oppose, and to intimate his opposition with that candour which extorts the respect due to a trusty opponent as to a trusty friend. Relying on the encouragement which she had received, this lady arrived in St. Andrews a few days ago, and on Wednesday last applied to the Rev. Mr. MACBEAN, Secretary of the University, for a matriculation ticket, paid the usual fee, received the ticket, and signed her name in the matriculation book." All this showing the young lady to be perfectly in earnest. "Next day," it is added, "she presented her ticket to Dr. HEDDLE, the Professor of Che mistry, and asked leave to attend his lectures. He stated that he had no personal objection, and gave her a letter to Mr. IRELAND, the Secretary of the United College, authorising him to give her a ticket for the chemistry class. On presenting this letter and pa 3 ing the class-fee, she, according to the usual course, obtained the ticket. In the same way she obtained a ticket for Dr. DAT's Class of Ana tomy and Physiology, he having no objections to her being a member of it, but, on the contrary, giving her a cordial welcome." So far, as the Scotsman goes on to remark, " all this was very well, and just what might have been expected from the dis tinguished and accomplished Professors of this ancient and celebrated University. But unluckily they seem somehow to have become alarmed at the idea of being the first to take the lead, or rather to permit of its being taken, in regard to this so called " innovation" of educating women in a Col lege, and in those branches of education that have been generally confined to men or at least not sought after by women. Accordingly on Saturday the Senatus met and passed a resolution to the effect that the issuing of the matriculation-ticket and the class-ticket to Miss GARRETT was not sufficiently authorised; that this novel question raised ought to be deliberately considered and decided ; that the opinion of other Universities and of lawyers should be taken if thought expedient, and that in the meantime Professors should be enjoined to defer allowing the attendance of this lady on the classes of the University." Consequently, so far as relates to Miss GARRETT at the present moment, the authorities have brought that lady's movement in favour of extend ing the advantages of education to women, to a dead stop. But thanks to the originator of that as yet un successful movement, the question of Female Edu cation must now, however reluctantly, be seriously and completely taken into consideration. With the decision of the St. Andrews' Senatus we cannot in reason feel in way disposed to quar rel. It is the only conclusion they could as men of common sense have arrived at. The Professors who aided Miss GARRETT so chivalrously in her advance towards the realisation of her object, must in truth be acknowledged to have allowed their gallantry to overmaster their discretion. Until some Female University shall have been thoroughly organised in the vague future•—shall we say in No Man's Land somewhere about the epoch of the Mille nium—Miss GARRETT and her fair sisters with the cerulean stockings, would probably do much better to follow the advice of the old nursery ditty, to " Sit by the fire and spin !"—dreaming dreams, if they will, of the halcyon time to come, when some as yet uncreated Alma Mater, having daughters in lieu of sons, may flourish in arts, and letters, and pain occasioned to the patient, and failed to esta blish the presence of the projectile, yet from the cri tical signs obtained by examination and otherwise, it is the present opinion of the doctors assembled in consultation that the ball exists in the wound. It will therefore be necessary to repeat the exa mination at a more opportune moment, and deter mine the precis© position of the ball ; and, if possi ble, extract it without occasioning dangerous con sequences or serious lesions. At present the case calls for no surgical operation whatever." Still more it calls, on the contrary, for what is now be ing conceded abundantly to the illustrious patient , —rest, fresh air, nutritious diet, cold water dress ; ings, and fewer visitors. The Cornhill Magazzne has an article in this month's number on " Indian Cotton and its Supply," which is of special interest at the present time. It is written by one who has the most thorough knowledge of the subject, and makes use of infor mation as to the quantity of cotton grown in India, which, singularly enough, has been overlooked by all, though it is quite conclusive. Though for gotten now, the writer observes that it was with Indian cotton WYATT, PAUL, ARKwRIGIIT, HAR GREAVES and CROMPTON first produced the yarns which banished all fear of competition from Indian goods. He answers the question how New Or leans cotton has driven out the Indian cotton in the usual way—superior cleanliness being the chief reason. It works thus : " When it is considered that the produce in yarn of a pound of American cotton averages thirteen and a half ounces, while that of a pound of Surat is twelve ounces, it will be no matter of surprise that the one should be pre ferred to the other; and when to this is added the fact that the spinners obtain threepence halfpeLny for converting a pound of Surat cotton into yarn, while for the yarn from American cotton they receive but threepence farthing, the only wonder is that Indian cotton has been used at all while American was obtainable." The shortness of the staple does not appear to be of the importance frequently imagined ; and the colour of the Indian cotton is so beautiful as to cause it to be mixed with badly-coloured Orleans cotton to improve it in that respect. All these defects, indeed, hitherto noticed, are easily cor rected. Nothing is needed, but the certainty of a reasonable price to insure extensive cultivation. How important a part price plays in the matter is seen by comparing the cost of cultivation of an acre of the lowest kind of grain, maize, by a native ryot, compared with the returns. These are minutely given. The result is that the clear profit on the cotton, as now cultivated, is 12s. 6-1-d., while from the maize it is Ll ls. 6d. There are certain local reasons which induce the ryot, notwithstand ing this difference, to cultivate cotton, but of course, it could not be, under the circumstances, a largely grown crop. Interesting evidence is given of the perfection to which native Indian cotton may be brought, merely by reasonable care in the cultivation. The case of a gentleman is mentioned who made this evident by properly attending to a few acres in the very midst of the neglected fields of the native growers. His produce was treble theirs, the quality equally superior, and by selecting the seeds of the best plant he grew the next year cotton quite equal to that of New Orleans, and surpassing it in brilliancy and colour. The price needed to bring a large supply from India is not the extravagant one which now rules. The cultivator has a profit on his crop at 2d. per lb. on the spot; at 3d. he would have the inducement to grow it considerably. And it could in that case be landed at Liverpool, all charges included, for 51d. Hence at 6d. a pound, as a steady price, we might lock for a fair supply from India. The great thing needed would be, to introduce European local superintendence and direct dealing with the ryots; the frauds to which they are subjected by the native dealers being one principal reason why the grower is somewhat shy of the crop, and why the Liver pool merchant finds it does not answer his purpose. The quantity actually grown in India is very fairly ascertained, through the transit duties, now abolished; these duties from the province of Ben gal amounted to 1500,000, at a rate of a shilling for every 801 b., " showing an annual export from the provinces which furnished it of 800,000,001 b." Estimating the surplus of the other cotton produc ing districts at the same amount, it would furnish a total of 8,000,000 bales of 3001 b. each, as the total of what India produced 40 years ago in excess of the demands of the cotton districts themselves. It is remarkable that this amounts to just the six millions of bases spoken of by Lord SHAFTESBURY as the produce of India; b ut then this was not all disposable for foreign ma r kets, it only shows what India actuall y grew — a considerable surplus, how ever, going to China and England. LATEST NEWS. LISBON, Nov. 4. The Cortes were opened to-day by a commission. The royal speech was unimportant. Don Jose Estevado, the great orator, has died suddenly. The news from the island of Fayal is bad. Earth quakes continue to occur. The Duke of Saldanha will leave next Monday as Ambassador to Rome. ST, PETERSBURG, Nov. 5. Count Victor Panin, Minister of Justice, has been dismissed. The affairs of the Ministry have been entrusted to his subordinate, Senator Zami•- at nin. An Imperial decree has been issued repealing cer tain taxes in Poland hitherto paid by Jews only, but increasing the duties on brandy. TURIN, Nov. 4. The iTlonarchia Nazionale of to-day says : " Rumours are current that the Ministry wishes to dissolve the Chamber ; but, as the present state of affairs requires rot only the activity of the Ministry, but the participation of the entire coun try, in promoting internal organisation and further ing the aims of external policy, the agitation of fresh elections bould not be regarded as opportune. On this account the Government would not resort to such a measure, unless compelled by events which it could not prevent. If, therefore, a coali tion of hostile parties should succeed in forming a fictitious majority, it would probably become the duty of the Government to appeal to the electors for the preservation of liberty and constitutional in stitutions. Let us hope that this complication will not occur, and that those sections of Parliament which uphold similar principles will remain united to resist the attacks of parties of extreme opinions." sciences— " With prudes for proctors, dowagers for deans, And sweet girls graduates with their golden hair." Anything, at anyrate, we cannot but protest—not withstanding our unaffected admiration for that par ticularly strong-minded young lady (quite a contrast to Punch's " Unprotected Female") who has recently been so heroinecally storming the strongholds of learning at St. Andrews (as yet in vain !)—anything we say, would be preferable to the toleration of an unauthorised and distracting intrusion of girl graduates among the alumni now gathered together at our universities—male and female students— listening from the same benches, let us say (as Miss GARRETT proposed should be done the other day at St. Andrews), to public lectures on Anatomy and Physiology. The detailed account published by us yesterday in reference to the state of GARIBALDI'S Health and the results of the consultation will have indicated quite clearly among other things demanding note the fact that Professor PARTRIDGE'S opinion has undergone a certain amount of modification. As to the existence of a ball or not deepseated in that wounded ancle, we are still left in as much doubt and uncertainty as ever. The Doctors still disagree upon that point; and when they disagree, as we know who shall decide ? Probe and finger have been thrust into the wound—vainly —in search of this supposed bullet. M. NELATON it was who tried the probe—declar ing that, with it, he felt the ball's resistance. M. PORTA, as we read with a shudder, " explored with a finger, thrust rudely in up to the knuckle, and occasioning such an intensity of agony as to make the patient,long-suffering GARIBALDI cry out ' You are a butcher !' " Nevertheless, after subjecting the hero to all this anguish, the doubt still remains exactly as it was before the consultation. There being only a slight strengthening of the general belief that there is, or rather may be, far down in the wound, that bullet, the presence of which was previously denied with so much more of confidence. Among others—by Professor PARTRIDGE. Now, however, instead in toto the existence there of any can find "little Mr. PARTRIDGE contents himself with bullet ato of all, denyingMr declaring that, in the he ayni th p e to b m a s li l .,, to augur the existence o f The conclusion gather there around GAR arrived at by the Seventeen Doctors brou b g ed ht t a o t - Spezzia, is of so much importance, we cannot but think, under the circumstances, thathero the it few r b d u s t i nbe which advisable it is comprised. oo repeat m prised. " Altho ug h," t h e seventeen d oc t ors say unani mously, in consultation—" Although the exa mination of the wound by the finger and the probe Aim r \ eudered, 41couiplete through the FRANCE. Several of the Paris journals remark on the short note sent by the Chevalier Nigra to the France, and denying in the most positive manner the truth of that journal's assertion that he, as representative of the Italian Government, had expressed to M. Drouyn de Lhuys regret on the part of the Cabinet of Turin at General Durando's having addressed to France his circular rel, five to Rome as the capital of Italy. In general the language of the several journals is not by any means complimentary to the France which, it may be observed, is not by any means popular with its contemporaries. The Temps expresses itself in these terms : " Our readers may remember that before any con tradiction came from the Chevalier Nigra, we had declared that the statement of the Trance was simply impossible. Plain common sense sufficed for that. It might have happened that the French Government had called for the disavowal of Gene ral Durando's note, and it n ay yet do so, but that disavowal, if demanded and obtained could not but lead to the retirement from office of the whole Cabi net. The France endeavours to conceal its discom fiture by drawing a distinction between the meaning and the form, and by insinuating that its only error was in the latter. The denial, however, of M. Nigra ruins its assertions not only as to fora: bat as to meaning, and allows nothing to ►emain. As far as the action which the change just accomplished in France may have on Italian affairs, that is quite another question. It is, unfortunately, too certain that the retirement of M. Thouvenel and the acces sion of M. Droun de Lhuys, appear likely to create serious embarrasments for the Italian policy, pledged as it is by the reiterated votes of the Par liament and by General Durando's circular. So long, however, as M. Ratazzi remains in power, it is evident that he has not lost all hope, or, if the expression be preferred, all illusion. Although we have very often opposed him, we augur well enough of his sentiments and his dignity to believe that he will retire on the day when the check to his policy, such as it is defined in General Durando's circular shall be clearly shown to him, and when Rome shall cease to be the great object of Italian diplo macy. But on that day the King of Italy will, perhaps, have some trouble in finding men to volun teer to form a new Cabinet." The following is from the Pays : " This letter is an apple of discord thrown by the Italian Minister into the clerical camp, where the most perfect harmony has hitherto prevailed, The Monde consented to regard the new journal quite as a brother. A controversy as to a ques tion of the flag to be adopted, still separated it from the Union, but they nevertheless managed to agree tolerably well. As for the Gazette it was profuse in its praises. Any fact advanced by the France became for it an article of faith, and oa the subject of this unlucky paragraph, now con tradicted by M. Nigra, it stated This event, for it is an event, and one on which there cannot be the least doubt, as the France would certainly never have ventured lightly to advance so important a fact, which would for ever ruin its credit if found to be untrue—this event, we say, confirms what we have never ceased to assert on all occasions.' A complete change has now taken place. The France, uneasy under this new contradiction, maintains that M. Nigra is very imprudent to complain because a doe of conduct has been attributed to him which Count de St. Poncy himself (the director of the France) would not have disdained to adopt. M. Nigra is really too hard to please. And so is the Gazette, which only yesterday stigmatised the pre tended explanations of the Italian Minister as humiliating and almost cowardly ! The political editor of the Gazette is now placed under the neces sity of tacitly praising the conduct of M. Nigra throughout this affair. NV e have always said that the great misfortune of the clerical party is the want of concert. If the Gazette and the _France had but understood each other, this affair might have afforded them an opportunity for making a little noise ; they have missed the chance, and Heaven knows whether they will ever find another like it."

A Paris letter in the Journal de Rouen has the following "The royalty of King Otho 1., which was im• posed on Greece by the protectorate of the Powers, has never ceased since 1832 to be called in ques tion. Having been coldly received at the very commencement, it has never been able to take root in the national soil. It has supported itself for 30 years only in the midst of revolutions and conspi racies. The following facts will sufficiently prove that assertion :—Two years had scarcely elapsed from the proclamation of Otho I. as King of Greece • when a conspiracy was discovered in Match, 1834, the object of which was to overthrow the Regency which then governed. On Ist June, 1835, Otho, having attained his majority, took into his own hands the helm of the State. Two years after, in 1837, another conspiracy was formed for modify ing the bases of the Government. In 1840, there was another plot, which had no result. In 1813, a popular rising took place which triumphed and compelled the King to change his Ministry. In 1844, a change in a political constitution of the kingdom was effected by means of insurrections in three different parts of the country. In 1847, 1848, and 1849, fresh movements burst forth. In 1850, the Minister Kotflotokis was assassinated by his political enemies. In 1852 a plot was disco vered against the King's life. In 1851 it military insurrection broke out at Karaiska. In 1860 dis • turbance took place on several points and a con spiracy was discovered. In 1861 there was an attempt on the Queen's life, and in 1862 an in surrection at Naupiia. Such are the revolutionary phases through which the royalty of Otho I. has passed to arrive at the catastrophe which has led to its downfall." COURT CIRCULAR. OSBORNE, Nov. 4.

A letter from Turin of the Ist, in the Debats, says :-- " A decree of King Victor Emmanuel extends the provisions of the amnesty to all those persons who, ' not having been guilty of ordinary off inces in any part of the kingdom, have, either by means of the press, by public demonstrations, or in any other manner, participated in the levy of bucklers which ended at Aspromonte. Another decree has been published, amnestying all deserters since the battle of Novara on the sole condition of joining their regiments. This is a means of putting an end to political trials, several of those deserters, particularly officers, having served with Garibaldi in 1860 and 1862, These measures are highly ap proved of, as generosity, to be efficacious, ought to be without restriction. The accounts of Garibaldi continue to be satisfactory. The medical men are now perfectly satisfied as to the termination of his malady, and, unless any unforeseen symptom should arise, the cure is now only a question of time." SPAIN. The Madrid journals of the Ist mention great distress as prevailing in Catalonia, in consequence of the dismissal of workmen from the cotton manufactories caused by the want of raw mate rial. Subscriptions have been opened to pro vide work for the men. The Eco publishes a Paris letter, in which it is stated that Gene ral Concha is negotiating with the French Go vernment on the Mexican question, conformably to new instructions of the Madrid Cabinet. The Correspondencta declares that the general has no other orders than those given when the embassy was confided to him. STRAND THEATRE. This fashionable little theatre was last evening crowded in every part to greet Miss Polly Marshall on her return to England after an absence of six years. A new farce en titled " Jack's Delight" was produced for the occasion— the principal part, that of a buxom young widow, Mrs. Brush, of Bramble Farm, Barnstable, being supported by the returned favourite. Miss Marshall's a journ in the States has not, as in too many instances, spoiled her style of acting, although it must be confessed now and then we got a smack of Yankeeism ; but that, of course, will soon wear off, Her embodiment of Mrs. Brush, the supposed widow of Poor Jack of the Merchant Service, was much relished by the audience, who no doubt were strongly re minded of Mrs. Keeley, whose acting Miss Marshall's so strongly resembles. There was a thorough heartiness in all she did; and she may well be pleased with her enthu siastic reception. The management of this theatre is much to be complimented upon the spirited manner in wh'ch the establishment is conducted, as all the pieces produced are well chosen, capitally acted, and very tastefully put upon the stage. It has often been a marvel how Mr. Swan borough contrives to produce the effect he does, well know ing, as we do, the limited space he has at his command. But it is said everything can be done by good manage ment, and that must be the secret of Mr. Swanborough's great success. THE OXFORD MUSIC HALL. Verdi's " Nabuco" forms the ground work of one of those admirable selections for which this hall is so distinguished. The opera itself was played some years ago at Her Majesty's Theatre, but has not since been taken up by operatic managers, although there is some grand music in it, eminently suited for comprehensive treatment on the lyric stage. These operatic selections are a speciality at the Oxford, and in themselves ought to act as a coun terpoise to the " Sensation " mania which has so generally set in. The execution of the music of the selection, by principals and chorus, is irreproachable, and this last production may rank with the best of the Oxford repertory. Amongst the morceaux of the selection we noticed the cavatina for the bass (Mr. Greene) " D'Egitto la sui lidi ;" the scena and aria for soprano (Miss Russell) " Auch' io dischiu soun giorno;" the duett for soprano and bass (Miss Russell and Mr. Albert), " Donna chi sei ;" and the finale by Miss Russell, Mr. Albert, Miss Emmer son, Mr. Raynor, Miss Townley, Mr. Greene, and chorus. The selection is put together with Mr. Jonghman's usual care, and is conducted by him with great skill. In addition to Master Drew Dean, the eminent flautist, the Neapolitan minstrels (Angelica and Arena) make a pleasing impression by their performance of some characteristic airs on the man doline and guitar. A notable feature in the vocal portion is the duet of the " Hunting Tower" be tween Mr. Maclagan and Miss Stuart. As a duet, this effusion can be made much more dram ado than as a song, and Miss Stuart infuses a grace and spirit into the little scene which set off her charming vocalisation. In his share in the duet, as also in his more diversified Scottish entertainment, Mr. Maclagau shows himself the true artist; Miss Caroline Parkes, in a lyric and terpsychorean burlesque on " Bluebeard ;" Mr. W. Randall, and Mr. Hollingsworth (the latter the very " spit," as a cook would say, of a " Bobby"), each engross attention ; while that tower of comic strength, Mr. Unsworth (the great stump orator), allied with Mr. Eugene, continues one of the main attractions of the hall. A SOUVENIR 01. 4 THE EXHIBITION.—AIthough it was well known that the articles in the Exhibition were for sale, the purchasing of them was often a proceeding at tended with the exceptional circumstances of seeking out and questioning the vendor, with after-arrangements as to time of delivery, payment, &c., which were not agreeable proceedings for those simply accustomed to comfortable shopping, and knowing nothing of a business transaction. The textile goods of 137 exhibitors, consisting of shawls, lace goods, embroideries, dress fabrics, muslin curtains, &c., have assuredly been much admired, although but few visi tors have been so very anxious for their possession as to take exceptional - trouble to obtain them. Messrs. Grant and Gask, of 58 to 62, Oxford. street, rightly judging that many ladies would desire to purchase an article from the Exhibition, either as a souvenir or from approval of its superior workmanship or good taste, have made a razzia of the entire stock of the 137 exhibitors, purchasing alike from home and foreign, for the purpose of removing the goods in bulk to the establishment of Messrs. Grant and Gask immediately after the Exhibition is closed. The first day's sale is announced for Tuesday, the 4th of November, when, besides the above-named goods, there will be included the minor articles exhibited, such as gloves, perfumery, and fancy articles, which make a large and varied stock ; and there is a promise held forth by this firm that most of the latter description of goods will be sold at one-fourth of the original value—a bonus to the purchasers at Messrs. Grant and Gask's which the public could not have obtained at the Exhibition itself.—Court Journal. ted at Benfeld A double murder was commit (Bas Rhin) three nights back.

NEW YORK, YORK, OCT. 24 ( - Evening). (Per City of New York.) Reconnaissances from General I\l'Clellan's army continue to be made, but no general advance has taken place. General Burnside has been assigned to the com mand of the defences at Harper's Ferry. The Confederates are massed in the Shenandoah Valley. _ _ General Buell has relinquished the pursuit of General Bragg, who has passed through Cumber.. land Gap into East Tennessee. The Confederates carried immense trains of provisions out of Ken tucky. The Southern journals declare that Bragg's invasion of Kentucky was a failure, and the Northern newspapers denounce General Buell for not having prevented General Bragg's escape from that State. The Southern papers affirm that the reported capture of large numbers of Confederate prisoners is untrue. Large meetings have been held at Brooklyn, en dorsing President Lincoln's proclamation and de nouncing the Union as it was. According to intelligence received here from New Granada, Mosquera had firmly established hiv Go vernment throughout the country.

The Southern journals state that the Federals have evacuated Corinth and Bolivar, Mississippi. There has been organised resistance to the draught among the Pennsylvanian miners, but affairs nave now been adjusted. The returns of the elections continue to show considerable Democratic gains throughout the country. The New 1 ork, Herald says that another conven tion of Governors will meet to consider the removal of General M'Clellan, and urge the enforcement of the Confiscation Act. It is reported that the Federals have captured an island in Galveston Bay. Nashville is entirely cut off from communication with the North. Confederate forces, numbering 1,000, crossed the Cumberland River, and encamped seven miles north of Nashville, but were driven back across the river by the Federals. Semi-official despatches from Washington say that the Federal Government would give half-a million dollars for capture of the Confederate steamer Alabama, or 300,000 dols. for her de struction. The New I orb: Tribune says—" It is believed in Washington that if the circumstances of the sinking of the steamer Blanche, in Spanish waters, by the Federal steamer Montgomery, are as stated, the Federal Government will repudiate the action of the captain of the Montgomery." EVENING. At a Democratic meeting held in Brooklyn reso lutions were passed pledging Democracy to restore the Union as it was and to maintain the Constitution as it is, denouncing arbitrary arrests and interfe rence with the freedom of the press. President. Lin coln's emancipation proclamation was declared un wise in policy and bad in principle, securing an united South, but making a disunited North. The name of the Governor of Massachusetts was hissed by the meeting. Mr. Horatio Seymour declared that Democratic relationships to the Government had changed within the last few weeks, and that Democracy now com manded the situation. Thirty Federal machine workers at Portsmouth, Virginia, have gone over to the Confederates. The superintendent of a plantation near New Orleans bas been killed by negroes. It was ru moured that the negroes afterwards revolted, and that the military were called out_ The disturbance was quelled after several were killed. The British stomer Rinaldo arrived at New Orleans on the Bth. Semi-official Washington despatches say that the Mexicans were making great efforts to resist the French invasion.
