MON EY MARKET. CITY NEWS-YESTERDAY. The MeA ican dollars by the Seine, from the West Indies, have been sold for China, at ss. 21d. per oz., being , id, above the price obtained for the pre cious supply, but the same as that current in the interval. Telegrams received today in anticipation of the Lrazil mail announce the stoppage at Rio of Messrs. Faria Brother and Co., merchants and bankers, owing, it is stated, to the failure of Messrs. Rostron and Co., of Manchester. The house is highly re spectable, and the liabilities are understood to be very considerable. There was a moderate demand for cotton to-day at Liverpool, the sales being 4,000 bales. Ameri can, however, was dearer. The imports to-day were 61 , 6 27 bales. The Committee of the Stock Exchange has ap pointed Thursday, the 2d of Octobtr, a special settling day in the shares of the United Kingdom Shipowning Company (Limited), which, however, are not to be marked in the official lists. Late advices from Hamburg mention the failure of Messrs. 3 . . M. and H. D. Lindheim, of Vienna, Prague, Brunn, and Breslau, ironmasters and cotton-spinners. Their business was extensive and their debts are stated to be very large, but the assets when realized are also, it is hoped, likely to be considerable. The Outgoing French mail of the 23d inst. to Brazil takes advice of the non-acceptance of the draughts of Johnston, Saunders, and Co., of Bahia, upon their Liverpool firm of Messrs. Edward John ston, Son, and Co. About £70,000 in gold, chiefly Russian imperials was taken to th e B an k t o -d ay . Al t h oug h th e Con tinental exchanges are flat they are not at a point to induce remittances of gold from this side, and con sequently any arrivals that may immediately take Place from Australia, America, or elsewhere will be sent to the Bank. The commercial advices from New York to-day reach to the afternoon of the 16th of September, 'when the accounts of the victories gained by General M'Clellan over General Lee had been fol lowed by much anxiety on account of no later in formation having been transmitted by the Govern ment from Washington. A reaction had conse quently occurred in the stock-market, and the Premium on gold, which had declined from 194 to 161, had again risen to 173-. This movement, in the absence of any authentic information, was of course accompanied by all kinds of adverse rumours, among which was one to the effect that General Jackson had succeeded in getting to APClellan's rear. The steamers to arrive this week are the ilammonia and Kangaroo, both from New York on the 20th, and the Australasian on the 24th. The Great Eastern was advertised to leave on the Ist of October. CITY NEWS---THIS DAY. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. A larger business is reported to-day in the gene ral discount market, the supply of bills having tem porarily increased through the disbursement usually effected at this period of the year. The revenue Payments are also exerting some influence, and the banks • and discount houses are taking advantage of the opportunity to ask rather higher terms for the securities they negotiate. The consequence is that very few bills are now discounted under 2 per Cent., and there are numerous applications at the Bank of England. A call of £3 per share (making £5B paid on every £6O share) on the Phcenix Gas Light and Coke Company's• shares has to be paid by the 21st Oct. The Dutch Rhenish Railway Company's receipts for the fortnight ending the 15th inst. amounted to £10,353 16s. 6d., and for the corresponding period of last year to £9,215 19s. Bd, showing an increase of £1,137 16s. 10d. in favour of the present year. Thinsday next has been appointed for a special settlement in the shares of the United Kingdom Ship-owning Company, but dealings in them are not to be officially recorded. _ _ . Daring the last few days there has been less ani mation in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Mar kets. In tea a moderate business has been done, and full rates have been obtained for the new season's or). Sugars have remained at about previous Prices. For coffee there has been only a moderate demand without material alteration in values. Rice Continued dull, and rather lower quotations are cur rent. Saltpetre remained in fair demand ; but tal low, owing to the recent largo arrivals from Russia and Australia, has been dull and rather cheaper for Present and forward delivery. Two O'CLOCK.

It will be recollected Miles attempted for the first time to accomplish the extraordinary feat of walking, fair heel and and toe, 21 miles in three consecutive hours, fora bet of £5O a. side, on Monday, August 11, when he failed. Mites on that occasion became so used up that while walking the first lap of the 18th mile he fell from sheer exhaustion. His backer thinking the failure arose solely from his not being in proper trim, determined to let him have another chance. The present match was therefore made, the requisite articles being entered into on Friday, Aug, 29, W. Price laying the odds of £5O to £25 that Miles did not succeed in accomplish ing the above specified distance within the allotted three hours. Miles had to make the circuit of the course 84 times (less 70 yards). Notwithstanding the unpropitious state of the weather, the ground was in splendid condition, and at 3 o'clock, Miles, attended by young Smith, made his ap pearance. The betting was 6to 2 on time, but the backers of Miles did not feel much disposed to whip it on at the odds offered, as they said the day was to all intents and purposes so much against their man. The start had to be made by the report of a pistol, and on the signal being given Miles dashed off in magnificent style. The first mile was accomplished in 7 minutes 45 seconds, the second mile in 15 minutes 50 seconds ; 3 miles were completed in 23 minutes 59 seconds ; 4 miles, 32 minutes 8 seconds ; 5 miles were told off by the young Brixton clipper in 40 minutes 18 seconds; 6 miles accomplished in 48 minutes 38 seconds; and the first 7 miles were completed, and that with the most perfect ease to himself, in 57 minutes. The first 8 miles were done in 1 hour five minutes 33 seconds ; 9 miles were done in 1 hour 14 minutes 9 seconds ; 10 miles were done in 1 hour 22 minutes 44 seconds; 101 miles (half the dis tance) were accomplished in 1 hour 27 minutes; 11 miles were completed in 1 hour 31 minutes 16 seconds; 12 miles were done in 1 hour 39 minutes 45 seconds ; 13 miles in 1 hour 48 minutes 25 seconds ; and the first 14 miles were gatfantly walked in 1 hour 57 minutes 11 seconds. The first 15 miles were accomplished in 2 hours 6 minutes 57 seconds; 16 miles were completed in 2 house 15 minutes 7 seconds ; 17 were splendidly walked in 2 hours 24 minutes 33 seconds ; 18 miles, 2 hours 33 minutes 40 seconds ; 19 miles were done in 2 hours 42 minutes 33 seconds. The ex citement which prevailed was of the most intense dascrip a.,,, Ilt: LiALLICU.M.UIIg, was linitcu of the ground with the most deafening applause. There could be no doubt, and well it might, that the pace and the long continuance of his exertions were beginning to tell on him, and that he was becoming more and more terribly dis tressed. Still, the pluck he exhibited at this trying and most critical time was deserving of the highest praise. Through out the last mile and a half Miles struggled on with the same undaunted pluck, the time when he had entered upon the 84th and last lap being called out by the referee, so that there should be no mistake. On came Miles in the midst of the most deafening applause, but notwithstanding the terri fic exertions he had made, he had failed to reach the goal when the referee had to announce to his friends those fatal words, "Time's up," but still, so close was he " there" that he succeeded in walking the 21 miles in 3 hours and 10 seconds, thus only losing the match by 10 seconds. Such a performance as this has not been witnessed for years, and that, too, in the midst of a pitiless rain. EAST INDIAN STEAM NAVIGATION COMPANY,-(]!MEETING THIS DAY.) At a meeting of this company to-day the following reso- Lution was adopted : " That the board of directors be, and. &tre hereby em powered, to negotiate and enter into contract for the sale of steamers, barges, tools, and other property of the company, in whole or part, and on such terms as to price or otherwise as they shall in their discretion think most expedient for the interests of the company." The Movimento publishes the following letter from Garibaldi, the original of which it declares it possesses in the general's own handwriting :—" I have read in No. 1,027 of the Perseveranza a letter quoted from the Esprit Public, which is said to have been written to me by an agent of Mazzini's on August 12, and to have been found upon me by the royal troops at Aspromonte. These two bits of news form ono lie. Another journal, the Pattie, has got somebody to write to it from Spezzia that the English surgeon put into my hands a sum of £5,000 on the part of Lord Palmerston, as a testimonial of the sympathy of the English people with the enterprise against Rome. It is sad to see Guttenburg's invention turned to such vile and abjectl,urposes.—G. GARIBALDI." The fine congous from Foo-choo-foo imported in the Fiery Cross and Flying Spur were placed en the mar ket this morning, and about 1,000 packages have been rea lised at prices ranging from 2 s 3d t o 2 s 10d. The West India journals received by the mail yesterday are unanimous in opposing the suggestion that the future West India mail contracts should be via New York, At the meeting of the Italian Scienziati (men o science), which was this year held at Siena, it was decided that the next reunion, for the year 1863, should be held "at Rome, the capital of Italy." Only four of the mem bers of the asssociation gave a negative vote to this pro posal. The Hector, ironclad war ship, was launched from the building-yard of Messrs. Napier, of Glasgow, on Friday. SUICIDE OP A FRAUDULENT " ODD FELLOW."— No little excitement has been occasioned in the village of Southern by the suicide of William Neville, a barber and news agent, who had filled several offices in connexion with the Southam Friendly Sick Fund and Burial Society—a branch of the "Nottingham Order of Odd Fellows." De ceased for many years acted as permanent secretary to the above society, and resigned in July, when one of the mem bers had expressed certain suspicions that all was not right with respect to Neville's exchequer. The society having at this time no complaint against him, appointed him steward. The committee, however, came to a resolution to audit his books, and they were found to be incorrect. He was twice requested to attend " summon lodge meetings" to explain the matter, but did not do so. This was in August, and it being found that many irregularities had occurred during his secretaryship, the managers warned the mem bers not to pay any more money to him. About a week ago the letter of one Rawlins, of Stratford-on-Avon, whose money he had received but not accounted l c for, was read t o hi m b y Spraggett, the new secretary, as well as another, co mp l a i n i ng of his defalcations, from t h e general Odd secretary to the A nc i ent I mper i a l U n i te d Order of o r to Fellows at N o tti ng h am. He then promised to refund ar_ the society the moneys h e h a d em b ezz l e d, and it dl was iodge on ranged that h e s h ou ld a tt en d a mee ti n g the last Thursday last to pay Rawlins's moneyl.oo7 account book Spraggett called upon him for the genera • n ot produce ikhe for the funeral fund, and was told if he_ d e , d ra n eetm • the mem would be proceeded against.

BOW-STREET. STEALING A PLA.lsiT.—John. Smith, a well-dressed gen - tlemanly-looking lad of about 16 years of age, was charged with stealing a japonica plant, value 2s. 6d., from the en. closure in St James's-park. John Winter, a labourer, stated—About half-past nine o'clock this morning I was at work in the park when I saw the prisoner take this plant up by the roots. Mr. Corrie—• Did he get over the railing ? Witness—He did. When he saw me he threw the plant, down and ran away. Park-constable 10—I saw the prisoner running away and stopped him. I did not see the plant in his hand, but when I asked him what he had done with it he said he had thrown it away. I asked him what he had pulled it up for, and he said to make a stick. The prisoner —That is trne, sir. I pulled it up to make a stick, and when I saw that it would not do for that I threw it away. I had not seen either the gardener or the park•keeper till they stopped me; and I was not running for the purpose of escaping, for it did not occur to me that I had done wrong. Mr. Corrie—What are you I' Prisoner—A clerk. Mr. Corrie--Where. The prisoner hesitated. Mr. Corrie—You are not obliged to say unless you like, and I don't know that I need press you. I darn say it has been a foolish, thoughtless act, whether you took a fancy to the plant, or whether your story is true that you wanted it to make a stick. Still I can't pass it over without some punishment. You must pay a fine of 20s. The prisoner, on hearing the decision, burst into tears. The fine, however, was promptly paid. MAR LBOROUGH-STREET. ATTEMPTED BURGLARY. —Daniel Leary, a rough fellow of about 18 years of age, well known to the police, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with being concerned with others in attempting to enter the shop of Mr. George Malls, boot and shoemaker, 13, Gilbert-street, Golden-square, by springing the shutter bar. Bettsworth, 181 C, said that at half past three that morn ing he saw the prisoner with two other lads loitering in Gilbert -street. After watching for a short time he saw the prisoner stand at the corner of the street as if keeping watch while the other lads went up to shop 13, Gilbert street, and one having sprung the shutter bar by pulling it forward, there being no centre fastening, the other let down a shutter. He (Bettswortb) then went forward, when the prisoner and his companions ran off, but after a sharp chase he managed to secure the prisoner. The prisoner told him that the others had asked him to go with them, and he did so, and that their object was to enter the place. Inspector Charles Bowles said the prisoner was known to Boden, the messenger of the Court, as an associate of thieves for years. At the station the prisoner said that they meant to enter the shop for the purpose of plunder. Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner. SOUTHWARK. A RUFFIANLY FELLOW.—Henry Blandford, who de scribed himself as a " wing man," or scene shifter, and who, it appeared, had been discharged from Marylebone Theatre for misconduct, was charged before Mr. Combe with assaulting Ellen Hudson, a woman with whom he had been cohabiting for five years. The complainant, whose face was very much disfigured, said that she lived with the prisoner, at Williams-place, Cornwall-road, and this morning, about 2 o'clock, the pri soner, who had been drinking, quarrelled with her, and then struck her a violent blow, which gave her a black eye. He afterwards struck her again, and bit her hand. She said sho was sober at the time, and denied having given him any provocation. It was evident that the complainant repented having given the prisoner in charge, as the preced ing statement was elicited with much difficulty by the worthy magistrate. Police-constable 103 L stated that he took the prisoner into charge this morning, and proved that he had been pre viously convicted of a brutal assault on the complainant, for which he had been imprisoned. Mr. Combe commented on the conduct of the prisoner, and sentenced him to four months' hard labour. MARKETS-THIS DAY. HAY MARKETS.

The Message, du Midi gives an account of a violent thunderstorm which burst a few days back over the village of St. Arnac ( D eux - Sevres). The ig htning fell on the house of a weaver named C a l vet, and afterlce es pe n n d et e r d at i i n ng the roof passed through the floor b e l ow, an d d the ground floor, whence it went out th roug h a pane into glass, which was broken to pieces. Six persons were struck by it in its passage. Calvert's wife, who was in the upper room, was killed on the spot ; a woman named Rosch, who was in the same room with two young children in her arms, was knocked down and severely injured, the children escaping almost unhurt. A little boy who was near her had his clothes set on fire, and was much burnt ; and lastly, a girl aged 10, who was in the room on the ground floor was killed instantaneously. THE FLEET DITCH.—The works for the repairing of the portion of tho Fleet ditch running parallel with the Metropolitan Railway in Clerkenwell, and which were ren dered necessary in consequence of the accident which caused the inundation of the adjoining cutting, aro making consi derable progress. Tho old and insecure parts of the brick work of the sewer have been demolished as far as the bottom of Vine-street, nearly opposite the Sessions-house, and a large portion of the now sewer has been rebuilt, including the length where the rupture occurred. As the work of reconstruction proceeds the opening in the roaiway is being filled up with soil and made good. The turbid waters of the Fleet still run through their temporary course into the old c hannel, and the street is blocked 11 . P near St. Peter's Church, Saffron-hill, which at present causes a large and inconvenient detour of the passenger traffic. POACHING AFFRAY NEAR YORK. —At York Castle on Saturday, three men named John Hemingbrougb, G eo rge Hemingbrough, and George Thompson, were b ro ught up on the charge of havin g been engage d i n a poaching t rans action of a rather seriou s c h aracter on the estate of Lord Wenlock. The p ri soners were f oun d a t Acaster Malbis, and in the ir p osse ssion were di scovere d a number of rabbits and nets for taking game, and in a boat moored in the river Ouse , near the place, were f oun d n i ne hares. Major Preston, of Moreley Hall, two gamekeepers, and another man, went to the boat, when the prisoners made their appearance, and, after considerable resistance, they were secured.

CAPE TOWN RAILWAY AND DOCK. HALF-YEARLY MEETING THIS DAY. The ninth report of the directors stated that, in addition to the 21 miles opened on the 13th of February, 10 miles— as far as Stellenbosch —were opened for public use on the 4th of May. Since the o p en i ng to 30 t h J une 35,874 passen gers and 2,907 tons of goods had been conveyed over the line. During the month of June the traffic was temporarily affected by the unusually heavy rains which prevented pas sengers and goods from reaching the country stations, and also impeded the progress of the works on the unfinished por tion of the line. The section to Stellenbosch is complete, and nine-tenths of the remaining earthworks have been con structed. A further portion of the line to Klapmuts—nine miles in length—was shortly expected to be opened. The construction of railways to Malmesbury and Worcester, forming junctions with the present line, have been proposed by the executive government. The short branch at Cape Town into the Morning Market has been sanctioned by the government under the usual guarantee, and is in course of construction. The goods traffic will be materially aug mented by this extension. The suburban line, originally proposed by this company, from the Salt River Station to Wynberg, by way of Mowbray, Rondebosch, and Clare mont, is being constructed by the Wynberg Company, to whose directors the board have made proposals for working the traffic subject to the approval of the terms by the colonial government. The capital hitherto raised on construction account amounts to £526,600, consisting of 25,000 shares of £2O each, which are nearly all converted into stock, and debentures to the extent of £26,600, authorised to be issued by the meeting of 19th March last. There have also been raised £20,000 on account of working expenses, as sanctioned by the last general meeting. Of this capital £508,768 3s. 11d. have been expended on construction account. This amount includes advances for interest and management expenses, to be recovered hereafter. The sum of £16,689 12s. 3d. has also been expended on ,working account. From the revised estimate of Mr. Brounger, it appears that the sum of about £50,000 would be required to com plete the line from the Ist of June. In order, there fore, to meet this outlay, and to provide the necessary ad vances on account of interest to be eventually repaid, partly by the Government and partly by the contractor, it is pro. posed to take authority to raise the sum of £53,000. As a great portion of this sum is only to be temporarily advanced, it is proposed to raise the whole by debentures at short dates, so as to admit of its being paid off at an early period. The guarantee enjoyed by this company being in the form of a rate in aid of profits, to an amount not exceeding £20,000 a year, a return of only £6,000 a year over expenses is re quired to pay £6 per cent. interest on £600,000, to which amount the capital will be temporarily extended, until the accounts with the Government and the contractor have been arranged. The report was unanimously adopted. BRITISH ASSOCIATION FOR THE AD VANCEM-ENT OF SCIENCE. CAMBRIDGE, MONDAY. Active proceedings in connexion with the forth coming meeting here may be said to have com menced to-day with the arrival of many members and intended members and associates, and though the terms " large numbers" cannot at present be applied to them, yet they are in appreciable quan tities ; and the sight of old familiar faces and many strange ones in the streets, many of them those of notabilities, betrays the fact that there is something more important on the tapis than is usual in Cam bridge at this particular time of year. These, for the most part, consist of those who are about to take an active part in the approaching proceedings, and such as by reason of past experi ence know the value of an early arrival in securing choice of accommodation, and (when strangers) an early intimacy with the neighbourhood. As a mat ter of course, the majority find their way to the reception-room at the Guildhall, where the prices and situation of lodgings may be learned, and all necessary information acquired. There is a branch Post-office and Telegraph -office in the building. Many of the former members of the colleges are snugly ensconced in their ancient habitations, but if the attendance reach former averages, there will be still enough to afford a fair harvest to the lodging house keepers, a numerous class in Cambridge, and whose hopes are raised as flys and omnibuses dis charge into the town the living loads of the railway trains, lodgers at this season are to them a welcome extra; but we have not heard of any unreasonable prices. By reason of the requirements of the junior members of the University, lodging-houses are plentiful, and competition would. tend to regulate the prices at reasonable rates, even were there any desire to overcharge, which, howev er , as we h ave said, is not the case: '4.-71 tit/ LLOs, r . the accommodation ; but all purses can be accommo dated. In the ranks of the Association the names of many of the roost distinguished scions of this University may be found ; and though the fame of some is all that now remains of them to the scien tific world, yet worthy successors occupy their places, and the forthcoming meeting may be looked to to display a galaxy of talent rarely equalled. Estab lished 31 years ago, the Association now favours Cambridge as its focas for its yearly gathering for the third time, the former visits being in 1835, under the presidency of the venerable Professor Sedgwick ; and in 1845, under Sir John Herschel. Many of the " boasts" of this University have filled the presidential chair, and this year Professor Willis is thus appropriately honoured. Taking the 30 years to 1860, the average number of members at each. annual gathering may be set down at 1,600, and the receipts at something under £2,000. Manchester, however, in 1861, worthily boasted of upwards of 3,000 members, and receipts to the amount of £3,920. This was, however, a vast in crease over the first visit to the cotton metropolis in 1842, when the number of members was 1,316, and the receipts £2,161. The increase in 1861 was of course due to the increasing appreciation of the importance of the Association, and with this, the attractions of Cambridge, and its pecu liar aptitude for a meeting of this kind, it is not to be expected that Cambridge winnow lag in the race. An excursion to Hunstanton is proposed for Sa turday next. For general convenience there will be an ordi nary at Peeling's Bath Hotel, Benet-street, every day at 5 o'clock, and it is recommended that in all private parties during the meeting the hour of dinner be 5 o'clock. THE BOARD OF TRADE RETURNS. The Board of Trade returns for the past month were issued this morning, and again present results d which confirm the anticipation so often expressed that, owing to the universal character of British..s trade, it would be found that even the cotton cos . ! could only for a short period seriously affect its branch ..an d totals, any disturban 20 or stagnation in one being soon made up by the exercise of our 5 11 ' 11 of energy in new directions.

Of this quantity about 42 per cent. was from the United States, about 18 per cent. from Germany, 11 per cent. from Russia, 10 per cent. from Canada, and 5 per cent. f rora Egypt. It is confidently asserted that the decree of amnesty to all persons concerned in the late Garibaldian Movement, with the only exception of the deserters from the Royal army, will follow close upon thq celebration of the Princess's marriage. -. ,~, .. _ r . . THE GLASGOW iIIUBDER. Petitions are being numerously signed in favour of a reprieve of the convict Jessie M‘Lauchlan, and last night a great meeting was to be held in Glasgow in favour of the the same object. The Caledonitzn Mercury of yesterday says : Mrs. M'Lauchlan, we learn, has through thp week been suffering mentally very much. Since last visited by her husband, a dull moping state of mind has succeeded the former resolute upbearing against the despair that may well overwhelm one in her position. Several of the city clerg3 - men have offered their services, but she is contented with the ministrations of the Rev. Mr. Doran, and unwilling to be visited by any other clergyman. The formula of the sentence that the convict be "fed on bread and water " was carried out after the unfortunate woman first entered the condemned cell, but her weakly bodily condition rendering this diet hazardous to her life, which at present it is in cumbent on the prison officials to maintain, nourishing nu triment was ordered to be given her. The story I gave you on Saturday regarding a certain gentleman who heard screams coming from 17, Sandyford place on the night of Friday, assumes now a new character, the said gentleman turning out to be a Mr. Stewart, a wealthy jeweller, residing next door to the house of the murder, and having his place of business in Argyll-street Mr. Stewart did not hear screams, but says that, as he thinks, shortly after eleven o'clock on Friday night, he was awakened by a noise in the adjoining house, which had ceased when he awoke. The editor of the Free Press, a Roman Catholic organ in the city, brings forward in Satur day's paper the evidence of the old clothesman, Paton, to whom old James Fleming says he sold his clothes abuut a fortnight before the murder. Paton says the clothes sold to him were not those of old Fleming, but of the son, John, Fleming, being far too large for the old man. The same paper (tbe Free Tress) assails Fleming's repu tation, and produces as evidence of the old man's moral and physical character the following assertion of a Mrs. Samuel Gray : " Dr, Main-street, Gorbals, brought me a female• child, nine years ago, at the time my first child was born. The father is James Fleming, 17, Sandyford-place, wb allowed me at first £1 per month for her maintenvaee, which was subsequently reduced to 10s., and raised to 125., which James Fleming himself came regularly to pay, He has been here soon after his release from prison, and paid £1 4s. for two months, and I expect him again in a few days. The child's mother I understood to be a yoitng woman in service, who died when the child was about ten, months old. The girl is now at sclloo!, and we call her Elizabeth Gray. (Signed) ELIZAISTII WCANN or Gray, Govan -road." The Free Press assails him in other respects, questioning his sobriety, and asking that in any future investigation the servants who served in his son's house during the last 12 years, or the female servants whose rents he collected, should be asked whether he has appeared to them sparing in his use of ardent spirits. Unless " Old Fleming" is thoroughly cleared in the course of coming events of all suspicion, he need never again personally go forth into the wynds to collect rents as heretofore, the somewhat lawless inhabitants of that locality being fiercely inclined towards him. SOCIAL PROSPECTS OF AMERICAN SLAVZRZ I From the social prospects of Jamaica we are tempted, not irrelevantly, to glance awhile at the slaveholding States of the late American Union. There, if American writers may be trusted, the white population would gradually die out, but for the steady influx of fresh immigrants from the North ; while the blacks are already about half as nume rous, in spite of the great social and legal barriers to their growth, and the proverbially wasteful tendencies of slave life in the cotton fields under a tropical sun. It is a common assertion, too often, indeed, put forth in defence of negro slavery, that white men of British blood cannot in those low latitudes bear the hard work, by dint of which the markets of the world are supplied with cotton and tobacco. If the African were not there to help them, they would soon be driven either to import field labourers wholesale from other lands, or too flee a country all to hot for their northern temperaments. As it is, two centuries of hard slavery have stocked the Southern States with almost the only peasantry which they seem fitted to grow; with a race of men capable of working hard in a climate unfriendly to most nations, of men easy to govern, not slow to learn from their civilised neighbours, and peculiarly prone to increase and multiply under circumstances the least encouraging. How much mere numerous that peasantry might now have been, but for the life they are too often compelled to lead, and the efforts of their masters to keep up their market value by discountenancing the slave trade with Africa, we need not care to consider here. The fact remains that the numbers have increased under every drawback at a rate proportionally greater than the white people of their own neighbourhood. If this be anywhere near the truth, we may expect to see that sable peasantry ere long outnumbering the white population. But even if the truth were very far off from this, if a race of white men could ever show itself equal to the negro in the polyp' of uara for anv length of I nue tuner a Beaching sun, and defying the teleful effects of a fever-laden atmosphere, there would still be so many millions of black men living in the same country and obstinately declining to take themselves out of the way. How are the white men to deal with this huge mass of black humanity ? These human chattels cannot be trans ferred like mere bales of cotton from one country to another. You may talk of shipping them off in a body to Liberia, or driving them off across the Rocky Mountains into a country set apart for themselves ; but will they go of their own freewill, and failing that, how are the Americans to force them away ? Harsh laws have hitherto failed to stop the influx of Chinese settlers into Australia. An armed rising would be a dangerous remedy, and even if it succeeded, the expulsion of the Moors from Spain brought any thing but good to those they left behind. The wisest policy is the only one which a Christian nation, if Chris tianity with most nations were more than an empty name, should feel bound to pursue. Let these black millions who now sit in chains and darkness beside a race of men bred up in the light of freedom and the Christian's gospel, be first taught to cultivate what mental powers they have, and then be gradually delivered from a state of social thraldom as debasing as it is unwarrantable.—Dublin Uni versity Magazine. A FORTUNA7E PLURALIST. (From the Money Market Review.) From the report of the Select Committee of the House of Commons on the Inland and Customs Revenue establishments, we gather some curious information respecting the collection of the income tax ; and, as the subject is of public interest,we ex tract the following particulars (pages 114 and 115) of the cost of collecting taxes in the city of Lon don : It appears that, as clerk to the City of London Commissioners of Income-tax, Mr. Richard Till re ceived about £2,400, clear of all expenses, for his commission in the year ending 31st March, 1861, and that in 1855 he received £7,194 6s. for pound age on income-tax, and £523 7s. Gd. for poundage on assessed-taxes, making together £7,717 13s. Gd. for poundage alone. He is also clerk to the City Land-tax Commissioners and to the Commissioners of Assessed -taxes, and secretary to the City Cor poration income. This would appear enough, and more than enough, to occupy the whole time:of the most gifted individual ; but Mr. Till has a fertile brain, and, in addition to these appointments, he was managing director of the Electric Telegraph Company, a director of the Rock Insurance Com pany, a director of the Norfolk Railway, a director of the East Suffolk Railway, and he is also manager of Lowestoft Harbour, having a marine residence allowed him in that capacity. No one can blame Mr. Till for accepting these appointments, but the Public service suffers whenever an individual is worked beyond his th a t large Power ; and the question may be asked, Was it fo r want of more efficient supervi sionquantities of income-tax returns were sold a few years ago to fishmongers at Billings gate, cawing the affairs of tradesmen to become known? About 1,200 of these were recovered, but 800 had been dispersed, and among these were the returns of clerks in banking houses in Lombard street, and others fiom the wards of Dowgate, Bread-street, and Cordwainer. The subject was fully explained in Mr. Crawford's Return, N 0.153, Session 1858 ; and although few persons are satis fied with the present method of treating income tax returns under Schedule D, there is no proba bility that a similar scandal will ever occur agaia in the city of London. The evidence respecting defalcations of tax col lectors is most important, and it is suggested that they should be appointed by the Board of Inland Revenue, in which case the public would not be called upon to pay rates and taxes a second time whenever a collector absconds, and the parish au thorities have neglected to take proper security. The Tasmanian, from the West Indies, has brought £434,000, of which £ 140,000 is gold, and £294,000 silver. The proportion of silver from Mexico on this occasion is about £200,000, and the advices state that a similar amount will be shipped from Tampico by the next mail. The Asia, from Bost on, bas brought only £5,300 1 The Amount by the Tyne Brazilian Mail steamer is £25,291. le I at Ig at er nu ad [rs. er© Lnd.
