It has been adopted by the Paris Academy of Medicine after more than a thousand trials in Paris and the different London hospitals, viz., St. Thomas's, Guy's, and St. Bartholomew's, under the care of Messrs. Lloyd, Poland, and Legros Clark.—(Lancet, Nov. 6, 1857). The Copahine, which is in form of a pretty pink sugar plum, effects a cure in about six days. 100 Capsules, 4s. 6d.; post free, ss. 2d.—At G.

The Corporation of London having, at its meeting on Thursday last, given its sanction to Mr. Cubitt's plan for the construction of the bridge over the Thames at Black friars, the sum of £5,000 was, in accordance with the terms of the Act of Parliament, deposited by the above company with the corporation on Friday, and Messrs. Peto and Betts, the contractors for the railway bridge, will immedi ately commence its construction. Notwithstanding the extensive preparations already made by the contractors during the long delay that has occurred it is supposed that it will require 20 months to complete the bridge for traffic. BEDFORD AND CAMBRIDGE. This line was opened throughout on Friday by the direc tors and their friends. The total length of the line is 291 miles, its route from Bedford to Cambridge is via Sandy and Potton. By the completion of this line a direct rail way from Oxford to Cambridge has been established. The expensive and circuitous conveyance of east and west traffic via the metropolis will be avoided, and the distance by railway between Cambridge and Oxford will thus be short ened by about 49 miles. The London and North-Western Railwayli Company are to work the railway as a th rou g h "' and by means of a working arrangement a mini mum dividend of 41 per cent. i s secured to the share holders.

LITERATURE. he Ladies of Lovel-Leigh. By the Author of " Margaret and her Bridesmaids," &c. 3 Vols. Hurst and Blackett, It is impossible not to admit the cleverness of this tale, however much we may be struck with the improbability of some of the incidents. Indeed the whole course of events is out of the ordinary pale of experience, belonging rather to the region of imagination than of reality, and allowance must be made for this in the perusal. The narrator is the youngest of three sisters, living, when the tale commences, with their father at their ancestral seat of Lovel-Leigh in all ease and content. "The house casts a broad shadow on the lake, the battle ments round the roof being reflected back on its bosom, as if cut by some hand in adamantine stone. Three stories high, and roofed up with so sharp a pitch that three tiers of windows lighted the dome, it had a most imposing appearance, yet was more beautiful than grand. Beautiful in its old English quaintness, its grey stone, its cheerful open casements, the clustering roses, myrtles, and magnolias that climbed - in rich luxuriance even to the upper windows. It was beautiful in its air of home, its quiet grace, the exquisite verdure, with the sunshine of gladness over everything." Here, owing to a sort of constitutional shyness, they saw scarcely any company, the only frequent visitor being a certain Ferdinand Home, whom Mr. Love], having saved from drowning, adopts, after a fashion, and through whom happen all the mis fortunes it is the purport of the book to narrate. This individual is, it seems, marvellously handsome but extremely superficial and intensely selfish; though Mr. Lovel, a quiet student, with but little knowledge of the world, labours under the delusion that he is little short of perfection. At the com mencement of their acquaintance he had met with Mrs. Lovel before her marriage, and been smitten with her, still her rejection of him made no differ ence to their intimacy, and through his means she came by her death ; a shock received through fall ing into the lake in consequence of his clumsy management of a boat having caused her confine ment to terminate fatally, and the child, the youngest daughter, was in consequence born dumb. The children growing up, the second daughter, Pamela, falls in love with this individual, who is about her father's age, and he, ascertaining that the sisters will be co-heiresses, professes to return it, and the marriage is decided on. But as Mr. Lovel's health is breaking, he wishes to have his will drawn up at the same time with the marriage contract, and requests " Ferdy; ' as Mr. Home is termed, to recommend him a lawyer; and accordingly a friend of his, a Mr. Rivers, is summoned from town for the purpose. But no sooner does the lawyer see the eldest daughter, Mabel, than he determines to win her for his wife, and notwithstanding her positive refusal and that of her father, he persists in proferring his un welcome attentions. It now appears that "Ferdy" is considerably in debt, though he is unable to state the precise amount, but the lawyer, on being ap plied to, puts the sum at about £14,000, and Mr. Lovel sends him a blank cheque, signed, desiring him to pay " Ferdy's" debts, so that before his marriage he muy be perfectly free from encum brance. But a further delay occurs, the debts are not paid, the lawyer refuses to return the cheque, and suddenly claims the whole estate of Lovel-Leigh, though he offers to accept the hand of Mabel in stead. He is again refused, Mr. Lovel makes an other will leaving Mabel sole heiress, and, over come by anxiety at the state of his affairs, dies. Rivers now takes legal proceedings to get the estate into his hands, and the marriage between Pamela and Ferdy is definitely broken off, although she makes him a present of her share of her mother's fortune, which had been divided between the two younger sisters, and which amounts to £7,000. Determined now to husband their resources, and contest the matter to the uttermost, the three sisters dismiss the servants, sell off the sunerfbinn. and talre situations—the eldest becoming governess to an idiot boy, the second companion to an old blind maiden lady named Woodville, F erdy's aunt, and the youngest assistant to a milliner. Mean while the trial comes on, when it appears that Ferdy and Mr. Rivers are half-brothers, that the former is indebted to the latter in the sum of £47,000, and, moreover, that he is already married, his wife and daughter being alive. Under these circumstances, the jury, without leaving the court, unanimously give a verdict for the defendant. The ladies of Lovel-Leigh are reinstated in their home. The eldest marries a distinguished General, and the second a rising literary man, whilst the third, though disappointed in her affections, regains her speech to a limited extent in consequence of a pecu liar nervous shock, and derives consolation from wit nessing the happiness of her sisters and from the cultivation of her taste. The novel contains great variety of incident, it is very ingeniously constructed, and will doubtless enhance the reputation of the writer. Marietta. A Novel. By T. Adolphus Trollope, 2 Vols. Chapman and Hall. He who would truly depict the life of a foreign people, must not only sympathise with their habits and traditions, but also be perfectly familiar with their idioms and literature. He must, in fact, for get for the time his own nationality, and become asit were a denizen of the State in which his scene is laid. His work will otherwise present only an external aspect, and be little better than a caricature. With this defect, however, Mr. Trollope's novel is by no means chargeable. A more admirable delineation of Italian life, as found in Tuscany, it would be impossible to desire. Indeed, so excellent is it that perhaps none can fully appreciate the truth of the details unless they have lived in Florence, where the action takes place. The time . c hosen is the beginning of the present centu r y , and Marietta, the heroine, is a descendant of one of those old Floren tine familes which, through indolence and extrava gance, have allowed their patrimonial estates to slip through their . fingers. Her father, the Count Lunardi, had been forced to alienate the last and most precious relic of the family property, the Lunardi Palace, and it is her effort to regain this and to put the family in some degree upon a footing of its former prosperity that the plot is based. Dominated by one idea, that of restoring the for tunes of her house, she rejects the love of young Guido Guidi, to whom she was attached, becomes housekeeper to her uncle, an ecclesiastic, and manages all his affairs. After'twenty years' strict economy and judicious investment of the savings she succeeds in accumulating the, for Tuscany, by no means contemptible sum of 35,000 scudi (about £7,000), with which she purposes buying back the palace and reinstating therein her nephew, the young Count Sebastian. But to this scheme various obstacles arise. Thus, on the one hand, the palace has been mortgaged by its purchaser, the Marquis Perini, to a rich money-lender named Palli, who intends that it shall form part of the dowry of his only daughter Laura ; and on the other, Guido Guidi (who, disappointed in his love for Marietta had entered the Church, but still continues on good terms with her), determines to get the money she has saved into his own hands and use it to advance his ecclesiastical preferment, and as he is equally subtle and unscrupulous there seems every proba bility of his plot succeeding. But it so happens that Sebastian has lost his heart, much to the dis approval of his aunt, who desires that he should wed one like himself, of noble blood, to Palli's daugh ter Laura ; and she, to the dis g ust of her p a p a,who has no w i s h t o bestow her han d a nd fortune on one !horn he thinks a penniles s noble,returns his affec tion. T hings are i n t hi s state when Marietta sud denly di scovers that Guidi is playing her f a l se , an d that th e only chance of the Lu nardi Palace return ing to th e family is by the ma rriage of Sebastian and Laura ; sh e accordingly oyercomesher scruples to the match, enlightens the money-lender as to the state of the Lunardi finances, and the novel ends with the marriage of the lovers anci the discom fiture of the priest. The underplot, in which the brothers Palli, one of whom is the Marquis Perini's steward, and who have managed to - absorb the Perini property between them, try, without success, to bring about a match between their only son and daughter, is extremely amusing, and not less able is the description of the intrigues of the unprin• cipled Guidi. In fact, Adolphus Trollope has pro duced a very excellent novel. It combines the fidelity of a photograph with the artistic skill of a picture. The .Rffie in Cashmere. By Arthur Brinckman. Smith, Elder, and Co. The writer states in his preface that he makes " no pretence whatever to literary style," but that he has written the work in the belief that his prac tical experience may be of use to his fellow-coun trymen seeking sport in Cashmere. The style of the work certainly admits of improvement ; and we doubt if to any but sportsmen it will possess much interest. For instance, it cannot concern the general public much to know that " a man who works hard, and spares females, would certainly kill thirty ouriar in a month, though perhaps he might not kill more than 10 full-grown rams." Nor will they derive any great pleasure from being told by the writer that he and his men amused themselves by " pelting a doe ibex with bits of earth ; she had two young ones with her, so let us pelt for 10 minutes before moving off." The practical di rections, however, as to colour of dress, mode of stalking game, and management of firearms are likely to be serviceable to those whom they concern ; and military men may find the concluding portion of the work, which discusses the questions of army re form and of English rule in India, worth their at by the heavy cost of, the inland transportation. Should the harvest in Europe be good, not one bushel of grain will he required from America, while her imports of foreign articles are now 20,000,000 dots. pet month, from which she must part with her gold, or become bankrupt, as it is not likely that Mr. Chase's demand-notes will circulate in Europe." BANQUET TO HIS HIGHNESS THE VICEROY OP EGYPT. On Saturday evening his Highness the Viceroy of Egypt was present as the guest of the Lord Mayor at a grand banquet in the Egyptian Hall at the Mansion-house, which was elaborately and taste fully decorated for the occasion, baskets of flowers being suspended from the ceiling in the open spaces between the columns. The company invited to meet the Pacha was numerous and brilliant, including members both of the present and of the preceding government, a large number of distinguished fo reigners, many of the leading merchants and bankers of the City, and almost as many ladies as gentlemen. A guard of honour from the London Rifle Brigade, under the command of Major Rose, was on duty at the entrance and in the vestibule, and when his Highness arrived received him with arms presented, while at the same time the Lord Mayor and the Lady Mayoress advanced to bid him .welcome. • The company present included his Highness the Viceroy of Egypt, his Serene Highness Prince Fre derick of Schleswig-Holstein, his Highness Mus tapha Pacha, Earl and Countess of Leven and Mel ville, Lord and Lady John Manners, Viscount and Viscountess Doneraile, Lord and Lady Colville of Culross, Lord Colchester, Lord Ernest Bruce, M.P., Viscount Pevensey, M.P., Sir G. C. and Lady Lewis; M. Rouher, French Minister of Interior ; Mr. Mil ner and Mrs. Gibson, Mr. and Mrs. Disraeli, Sir John Pakington, M.P., Right Hon. W. and Mrs. Cowper, &c. After the names of the guests had been an nounced with heraldic solemnity by Mr. Harker, the toastmaster, the " loving cup" commenced its circuit, and his Highness the Viceroy took part in this ancient ceremony, with a cordiality which drew forth cheers from all parts of the room. The usual loyal and patriotic toasts having been disposed of, The LORD MAYOR said—l have now to offer a toast which cannot fail to meet with a hearty recep tion. I am about to propose " The Health of his Highness the Viceroy of Egypt." (Loud cheers.) Our illustrious guest is well entitled to an emphatic expression of our unqualified admiration of the unceasing efforts so successfully made by him for the development of the resources, and for the general advancement, of that ancient and most interesting country over which his royal highness bears sway. (Cheers.) Those efforts have not only resulted in benefits to his own country and to his own people, but have contributed largely to international com munication and to commercial intercourse between the different countries of Europe and the eastern hemisphere. I greatly rejoice in the good fortune which enables me, surrounded as I am by many of my distinguished countrymen in this Mansion-house of the old corporation of London, in the centre of the great metropolis of the widely expended British empire, to demonstrate to his royal highness the estimation in which his name and character are generally held by the British people ; and the great sense they entertain of the generous aid he rendered to us in the critical hour of our need. (Cheers.) Let us hope that the Great Disposer of Events may long continue to preserve a life so valuable, that the energies he has hitherto employed for the good of mankind may for a long period suffer no deteriora tion, and that the general cause of civilisation and commercial intercourse may still enjoy the advan- tages of that enlightened career which has been the glory of his royal highness to pursue. (Loud cheers.) The toast having been enthusiastically drunk, His Highness tharrimyncir -t' effect—l beg to thank your lordships and this dis tinguished company for the manner in which my health has been given and received. lam sure that these expressions are more than I really deserve, but they are an encouragement to me to deserve them hereafter. (Cheers.) Since I came to this country I have had cause to be grateful for the hospitality and kindness which I have received from all classes of the English people, and especially from the great personage who is its chief. Before I sit down allow me to propose " The health of the Lord Mayor." The health of his lordship, as proposed by his highness, was drunk with great cordiality. The LORD MAYOR said it was a proud thing for the City of London to have the honour, through its Lord Mayor, of entertaining the Viceroy of Egypt under the roof of the Mansion-house, and it was particularly fortunate for him (the Lord Mayor) that it had fallen to his lot to entertain his high ness and the distinguished company by which he was surrounded. (Cheers.) The LORD MAYOR next gave the toast of " The House of Lords," which was acknowledged by Vis count Doneraile. His LORDSHIP next gave " The House of Com mons," associating with it the name of Mr. Disraeli. Mr. DISRAELI (who on rising was loudly and universally cheered) said :—My Lord Mayor,—On the part of the House of Commons I beg to acknow ledge the honour you have done them by proposing their health upon this occasion. This is not by any means the first time that I have performed this gratifying duty ; and I am well aware, from the kindness with which this toast is always proposed from the municipal chair, and from the cordiality with which it is always received by this company, that this is not, and that it never will be, an idle ceremony. (Cheers.) Nor is this in any way wonderful, when we remember the value and the duration of the relations which subsist between the municipality of this city and the House of Com mons. Those relations are of no modern date ; they have been consecrated by age and by sharp expe rience ; they form an important element in the his tory of this country ; and they will long, I trust, continue to be cherished and respected by every class in the community. It is with peculiar plea sure and with peculiar pride that, on the part of the House of Commons, I this day acknowledge the compliment which you have paid us ; and I am happy to inform your illustrious guest that nowhere is his government viewed with more inte rest than in the House of Commons—(cheers) —and that it is with admiring satisfaction that they have seen that under his rule the energies of his country have been developed, the elements of its prosperity have been increased, and on many occasions thered have been exhibited the happy results of a wise and _ temperate administration. (Cheers.) Aboveav may say it is with peculiar pleasure best and of labour which forms, I believe,af n wit nessed under his sway that admission towhfeethe rights I hope, before securest foundation of the wealth of Lord Mayor, I may congrataltate, w hich has attended nations.

His Serene Highness PRINCE FRF.DERICK of Schleswig Holstein proposed " The health of the Lady Mayoress." His LORDSHIP then proposed the health of trert tlemen who had been brought together to the metropolis, not only from different parts o f t hi s country, but from distant places on the continent to do good service as jurors and commissioners in th e Great International Exhibition. They were much indebted to the foreign commissioners, to whom, with the jurors, much of the success of that vast undertaking was to be attributed, and he rejoiced to see several of them among his :guests. (Cheers.) He should not enumerate them, but brief as he was in proposing their health he desired to be emphatic in recognising the valuable services they had ren dered, and he had great pleasure in associating with the toast's name of world-wide celebrity, that of M. Chevalier, who did honour, not only to the great empire to which he belonged, but to the whole of Europe. (Cheers.) M. CHEVALIER, on rising to return thanks, was loudly cheered. Speaking at first in English, he said that although taken by surprise in being called upon to return thanks, he had no hesitation in expressing his gratitude for the welcome which he and his brother commissioners and jurors had received, and which he felt was natural, true, and sincere. (Cheers.) He then begged to be allowed to speak in his native tongue, end pro ceeded at some length to point out the advan tages which industry and commerce would derive from the holding of international exhibitions. He also alluded to the treaty of commerce which had recently been entered into been England and France, and augured from it the best results for the interests of the two countries. The present Exhibition, he said, afforded most gratifying evi dence of the progress which had been made in France and in England, and in several ether coun tries since 1851, Speaking for the French and other foreign jurors, as well as himself, he begged to return his most sincere thanks for the kindness which had been shown towards them in this coun try, and in conclusion, again expressed his belief that the cause of progress and civilisation would be greatly promoted by the friendly competition to which the International Exhibition gave rise. After one or two other toasts the meeting sepa rated. The dinner wns provided by Messrs. Ring and Brymer. A military band in the gallery played a selection of popular music during the evening. • OUR. _RELATIONS WITH PARAGUAY, AND THE COTTON SUPPLY. 'C~ The reply given by Mr. Layard to the questions addressed to him on Friday by Mr. Maguire, rela tive to the present state of our relations with the republic of Paraguay, was not so satisfactory as those commercially interested in that country could have desired, and we are well aware that the cir cumstances of the case Dilly warrant. To say that negotiations have been opened, but have not yet reached the point which warrant the publication of the correspondence, is to create doubts and ap prehensions for which, as the honourable official must be perfectly cognisant, there are no grounds whatever. When Mr. Thornton went up to As - sumption for the purpose of making a thorough inquiry, which he did, in the best spirit, and with the best results, he received accounts from British residents which satisfied him that the Paraguayan Government had much right on its side in the case of the alleged British subject, Can statt ; and there was then no real obstacle to the restoration of our relations with that Government to their former friendly basis ; and, happily, such restoration is virtually fait accompli. With regard to the question put to Mr. Layard by Mr. Liddell, relative to compensation claimed by British subjects finsitT6Y" c . ml ensati invttne foss 01 a small vessel, the steamer Little Polly, run down, through the merest casualty, by the Paraguyan war steamer Tacuari, and that it has been recognised by the Government of President Lopez as a matter for mercantile arbitrament on the ordinary basis, and is in course of amicable and satisfactory settle ment in the usual way, without the least refer ence to political considerations. There is really nothing to prevent the negotiations from being brought at once to a conclusion, and the commercial world, interested in that part of South America, reassured. This is the more desirable on account of the cotton growing capabilities of the whole region of the Rio Plata, and on which Mr. Consul Hutchinson has made no official report as yet, but his opinion on which is believed to be very encou raging, particularly as regards the islands of the Parana, and other affluents of the Plate, thousands of leagues of most suitable soil being available for the purpose, in a climate than which there is none healthier in the world. Some cotton samples of excellent quality from the Upper Parana were for warded to Manchester eight or nine years ago, and it was the opinion of Mr. W. Drabble, who visited most of the countries watered by the Rio Plata and its tributaries for the purpose of obtaining information on the subject, that these latitudes opened a promising field for the production of this essential staple ; an opinion to which double strength has been given by the inspection of some of the ordinary wild cotton shown in the Monte Videan Court of the International Exhibi tion. In the present state of the cotton supply, and in view of the little probability that exists of a speedy adjustment of the internecine quarrel in America, it is most important that amicable relations should be maintained with all countries capable of contributing in any degree to the large supplies of cotton which are required for the employment of the labour and capital of South Lancashire and Cheshire ; and Mr. Maguire deserves credit for calling attention to the subject i n the judic i ous way he has done, more especially w hen 't is remembered that the views he expressed o n a foruam er a agynccasion, autho in reference to the condu ct of Par rities, have been confirmed by the facts as admitted by the British authorities. --Liverpool Albion. narrowly YORK. --Last week a A FAMILY roIsoNE owly publishing death from poison, whole f a mily in York ur p.hinthe particulars i n our last, in order tha t P but we refra i ne d trom a P tur : statements might not inter ,thration which had been commenced into fere with the inv e 7 th i s mysterious affair.

During dinner some pa rs l e y sauce bad been used, and it was conjectured that "fool's pars ley," a deadly poison, might have got into the sauce by mistake for the proper kind. This supposition, however, proved groundless, and the cause of the illness of the family remained shrouded in mystery. Mr. Reed. and Mr. Proc tor, surgeons, were called in, and from the symptoms which their patients manifested, it was clear they had been poisoned. By the prompt administration of the usual remedies, the effects of the poison were counteracted, and on the following day the family were nearly restored to health. After dinner on Thursday the scene of Tuesday was repeated, the family being again attacked as before, es well as the cook. The greatest alarm was felt, and the medical men were again sent for. It being suspected that the salt kept in the house was mixed with some deleterious substance, Mr. Procter subjected it to analysis, and he found that about 30 per cent. was arsenic. Similar poison was discovered in some flour, but how the admixture took place is a complete mystery. The circumstances were re ported to the police, and a searching inquiry has been and is still being made by them, in order, if possible, to ascer tain by what means the arsenic was mixed with the salt and flour, and where the poison had been obtained. So far as the inquiry h a s proceeded, we believ e t h ere i s no reason ui for believing that the arsenic had been accidentally n3ilod w ith the flour and salt , but as Mr. Cooke is not away ai, any ill -feeling existing against hum on the par t of anyon e in his establishment, no suspicion is attached to a""t"-- York Zlerald. / (j‘ 711?

The enor mous barrel sewer was well , lighted through out the whole length subjected to inspec tion, and at its close it was stated that the opinion of the inspecting engineers was to the effect that, generally speaking, the brickwork was in a sound condition, and that is their opinion no fracture would have taken place in it from ordi nary traffic, nor would it have given way at all except through some cause not calculated upon when it was constructed. Meantime both the railway workmen under Mr. Cordell, and those of the Metropolitan Board of Works under Mr. Girdler, are pushing forward their several works as fast as possible. The heavy rain-fall of Saturday and the previous days has caused an increased quantity of storm water to fall into the open cutting of the line, but not to any considerable extent. In order to furnish an oppor tunity of deepening the northern end of the grip on the works of the Metropolitan Board, another channel of wooden troughs of great strength and capacity has been constructed to receive the water now flowing from the cut sewer above the fractured portion along the grip. The new water-course constructed by Mr. Dethick under Mr. Fernley's superintendence is found to answer perfectly, and the dam near the railway cutting has proved fully equal to the emergency of shutting out the sewage water from the line, and has thus prevented further interruption to the work of clearing the bottom of mud and debris. :ention. A Less Gained. By Philip Creswell. Smith, Smith, Elder, and Co. Disappointed love forms the staple of this tale, which is little more than a sketch, though skilfully executed ; and its aim is to show that such disap pointments often turn out to be benefits, though the recipients at the time are apt to be ungrateful and decline to estimate them at their real value. The victims, or rather the examples, in this case are a certain Luke Penrose, a merchant's clerk, who is very much smitten with his pretty but ambitious cousin, Nora Troye; and a young lady named Caro line Middleton who is engaged to a wealthy coun try squire named Breda). Dazzled with the pro spect of being surrounded by luxury, the fair Nora despises Luke, to whom she had plighted her troth, and uses all her arts to ensnare the squire. He falls into the trap, neglects his affianced Caro line, and ultimately elopes with Nora. But the marriage is not a happy one. Nora soon regards her husband with something worse than indifference. He follows suit, and they soon separate, whilst Luke and Caroline get over their reap, ctive disappoint ments, and turn them to good account by marrying and living happy ever after. The Queen of the Savannah,. By Gustave Aimard. Ward and Lock. This new tale, by the inexhaustible M. Aimard, depicts the struggle of the Mexicans to throw off the yoke of Spain, and the translator claims for it the merit of being " a real historical sketch of events which have been generally over looked by European authors, but, at the same time, are as interesting to peruse as the deeds of an Andrew Hofer." In this struggle, however, the heroine, if we may so term the lady who is styled " The Queen of the Savannah," bears no share ; the objects of her hatred being the In dians, one of whom had attempted to destroy her child. At length, however, she falls, together with her daughter, into their hands, and much of the in terest of the tale lies in the effort made by the lover of the latter for their rescue.

The following letter on American finance calls attention to a point which may become of import ance in case the Washington Government should be led into a belief that it is in the power of a military despotism to control even the course of theprecious metals. At the same time, although the reasoning of the writer is in the main sound, he is evidently a partisan of the South, and his estimates, there fore, may require to be received with some allow ante " London, July 4. " Sir,—Attention has been drawn to a branch of Northern finance which has not been dilated upon by any of the political economists—viz., the very large American commercial indebtedness to Europe, at all times floating, and estimated at 200,000,000 dols., as will presently be shown. This stupendous amount has been entirely hidden from view by the ramifications of trade ; but should the Washington Government be insane enough to prohibit the ex portation of specie, it will soon be exhibited. Every ' thing America sells to Europe she receives the cash for at once, the 60 days' sight bills of exchange being merely an accommodation to the foreign (European) factor, while everything that America buys from Europe is on a credit of four months. Assuming that these purchases are of the value of of 20,000,000 dols. per month, this credit would give her 80,000,000 dols. worth of property, which amount is increased by a system of accommodation bills and other means of finance adopted by the European agencies of New York firms to the extent of 40,000,000 dols., making 120,000,000 dols. In addition to this the American bankers have their accounts overdrawn at all times on their correspon dents in Europe to the extent of current transac actions, say 80,000,000 dols., thus augmenting the figures to the estimate of 200,000,000 dols. The draughts of these bank ers being at 60 days' sight, they rem it other 00 days' (produce) bills or gold in time to retire them at maturity, and so the machinery of finance is kept going from month to month. It will, therefore, be better policy for the Federal States to pay out their last dollar than to stop the legitimate outflow of gold, and thereby preserve tbcir credit of 200,000,000 dols ; but with the cessa tion of the ship ments of specie all commerce between them and other countries will be at an end. It is quite natural that so large an amount of European Capital should have been used in America, the rate of interest there averaging so much higher than here. The Southern States have no commercial indebtedness to Europe ; their money ma tters have alw a y s been arranged through Wall street. The productions of the South have been the great source of wealth to the North, the latter having acted as banker, commission merchant, and broker to the former. The earnings from the Southern business have been invested in a charac ter have based of securities the valued of with its decline een largea upon that very trade, au depreciation must be expected. The Northerners since Juy, had an exceptio nal advantage , the excess 1860 of which the shipments of breadstuffs in amount over their customary exports will av erage, including the net Ocean freights, about 6,000,000 dols. per month, or 138,000,000 dols. this advantage is not lost to th em, their crops of wheat and maize will be small in consequence of the late spring, and so many hands taken from agri cultural pursuits into the military service. or have the prices that have ruled named been s ufficiently within the per iod remunerative to be tempt ing to the producer to cultivate largely, the sea board quotations being eaten up in a great measure MURDER AND SUICIDE IN SHAD WELL. Saturday afternoon, about half-past two o'clock, a horrible murder was committed by a Spaniard, named Ramon Capele Villa Roca, at 12, Albert square, High-street, Shadwell. His victim was an Irish girl, with whom he had been cohabiting, named Honora Scannell. The event has created great excitement, more especially as after his detection in the first crime he succeeded in committing suicide. Roca arrived in this country from the Havannah about six weeks back, and then had 700 dollars in his possession. Soon after he formed an intimacy with Scannell, and nad recently become very jea lous of her. On Friday they went to the Exhibi tion, and were afterwards drinking in a public house. On Saturday afternoon, whilst cleaning out her room, she wished him to leave, as he had no money. The landlady of the house also told him to leave. He flew into a furious passion, and threatened them both with death ; and as he armed himself with a pistol and dagger, the girl becoming alarmed, ran out, and was has tening down stairs, when Roca attacked her, and stabbed her several times iu the back, and she fell to the bottom a corpse. The land lady ran out screaming " Murder !" and on a con stable arriving and demanding admission, the Spaniard opened the door, and presented a pistol at him, which he saw was loaded up to the muzzle. He shut the door upon the police, and rushed up stairs to the deceased girl's room, and immediately afterwards a report of firearms was heard. On gaining an entrance the police found the body of the girl lying at the foot of the stairs quite dead in a pool of blood, and her murderer on the floor of the room, with his head and face blown to atoms. The pistol bullet had passed through his head, and lodged in the ceiling, and the walls were bespat tered with blood. The bodies were removed in shells to the vaults of Shadwell Church, to await an inquest; and the police have taken possession of the premises where the catastrophe took place.
