MONEY MARKET. CITY NEWS-YESTERDAY. We are officially informed that, in conformity to the provisions of the Ottoman Loan of 1862, as stated in the prospectus, the following gentlemen have been appointed members of the commission created in Constantinople for attending to the re ceipt of the hypothecated revenues and the regular transmission to the Bank of England of the re quisite funds for the balf-yearly interest and sink ing fund, viz.: Messrs. Edward Gilbertson, George Guarracico, and John Stewart. The steamer Hansa brought from New York £27,000 in specie for England. The Liverpool cotton market to day was again irregular, and prices were quoted about 2d. per lb. below the extreme point lately reached. The London and North Western Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of £7,218, and the Great Northern an increase of £3,580. At the meeting of the Scinde Railway Company, convened for the 25th inst., a resolution will be submitted to convert all paid. up shares in the Delhi Railway into stock. A meeting of the shareholders of the Northern Counties Bank took place yesterday at Manchester, when a proposal to amalgamate with the Man chester and Counties Bank was unanimously ac ceded to. The shareholders of the latter had pre viously agreed to the same proposition. The news of the safety of the Great Ship has caused a renewed demand for this company's shares. An instalment of 10 per cent, fell due to-day upon the Russian Loan. The next instalment is due on the 10th November, and it is 15 per cent., less the dividend of 21 per cent. The last draft of 300,000 men by the United States Government appears at first to have given some uneasiness to Mr. Kennard, the engineer in chief of the Atlantic and Great Western Railroad, but the difficulties appear to have been successfully surmounted, so that the opening:to Akron will not be retarded. The permanent way is pushing on fast, both on the main line and the oil branch. The works from Corry to Meadville are about com pleted. CITY NEWS---THIS DAY. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The directors of the Bank of England have held their weekly meeting, and, as expected, have sepa rated without announcing any change in their dis count regulations. Owing to the steady position of monetary affairs the possibility of a movement, either way, now engages but litte attention, ana almost everyone seems prepared for undiminished easiness and abundance some time longer. The mercantile classes, consequently, limit their opera tions to immediate requirements, and the banks and discount houses, while negotiating choice paper, as low as 2f per cent., offer proportionate facilities with regard to long dated securities. In the Stock Exchange also capital is pletiful, and 1 to 11 per cent. are the current terms for tern porary advances on Conso s, New Threes, Re duced, &c. The Delta, which leaves to-morrow with the Bombay mail, will take out £401,870 in specie; of this £381,870 is in silver, and the remainder gold. At the half-yearly meeting today of the Cr3stal Palace District Uas Company, a dividend, at the rate of 8 per cent. per annum, was declared on the ordinary shares. The particulars have been announced of a num ber of Portuguese Bonds, amounting together to the sum of £985,600, which have been cancelled. The last week's railway receipts, ascertained up to this day, are in round figures as under : Great Western 1862. 1861. £66,683 £59,435 Great Northern Great Ea s t ern South-Eastern 31,459 25,851 South- Western .......... orth-Western 101,574 94356 Midland 45,822 43,021 Brighton Lancashire and Yorkshire 42,264 42,901 North Eastern 47,087 45,678 Bristol and Exeter 7,737 6,914 Edinburgh and Glasgow Grand Trunk of Canada These returns, with one or two exceptions, are of a very favourable character. On the Great Wes tern there is an increase of £7,218 ; on the Great Northern of £3,580; on the South-Eastern of £5,605 ; on the South-Western of £5,438; on the North-Western of £7,218; on the Midland of £2,801; on the Brighton of £3,987; on the North- Eastern of £8,409 ; and on the Grand Trunk of Canada of £1,723.

Towards the close of business yesterday afternoon, the Funds assumed an appearance of buoyancy, and a further slight improvement took place this morn ing, Consols advancing to 93n for tranßfer, and 934 f, for the Bth proximo. Continued firmness is stilt apparent, but there is very little business in progress. The New Threes and the Reduced are ; Exchequer Bills, June, 235. prem. ; ditto March, 20s. prem. ; India Stock is 232; and the 5 per Cent. Loan, 109 k t.

Great Easterns acd Great Northerns have declined lOs ; North Westerns, however, have improved 10s., Midlands, Lancashire and Yorkshire, and South Easterns realise previous prices. The Foreign and Colonial lines remain inactive. Recife and San Francisco improved to 181 ; Cape Town and Dock to 1081, Eastern Bengal declined to IU3I. Joint-stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares were in fair request at about previous quotations. Alliance of London and Liverpool realise 12-7-, ; Lon don Chartered of Australia 26Z- ; Ottoman Bank 28 ; Australian Agricultural 234 ; Crystal Palace Stock 34;; and South Australian Land 134.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Pane.), IN RE KINBBS. This was an application for release. Mr. Sargood opposed on behalf of the trustees of the Brandon Estate at Walworth, on the ground that the bankrupt had been lessee of some property and refused to give up possession, when the lease expired, and an action in ejectment was brought against him, and the cause was set down as undefended, but, on the case being called on a special application was made to have it placed in the list of defended cases, which, not only caused delay, but put plaintiff to £ll5 for costs. It was not at all likely that the bank rupt could pay the costs, and he (Mr. Sargood) thought it was a case in which the bankrupt should not be released, at all events, until he filed his accounts and passed his last examination. He had only been in custody a fortnight, and he immediately filed his petition in this court. His honour said he would order a release. Mr. Buchanan made an application fora day to be named for the last examination and discharge of a bankrupt who had been in custody for some months, as at the time he had not filed his account. He hat', however, now done so. Mr. Sargood, for the assignees, said he would consent for a day to be named for last examination, but not for dis charge, and an order was made to that Effect. APPLICATION FOR RELEASE. In a case in which the bankrupt bad only been in prison for a week, and had been taken in execution on a judgment in an action on a bill of exchange, to which he had pleaded, but did not appear, his Honour refused to grant the release. POLICE-THIS DAY. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CAB HORSE TORTURE. —GROSS INHUMANITY.—James Oswald, a cabdriver, badge 10,763, was charged at the in.. stance of Mr. Wm. Love, chief officer of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, with using a horse in a totally unfit state for work. The horse was brought to the front of the court for the magistrate's inspection, and created a feeling cf disgust in the minds of all who saw it at the conduct of those who had had the inhumanity to work it—its bones were nearly through its skin, it dragged one of its legs behind, having no use in it, and had some bad sores about its body. George Choyce, one of the officers of the Royal Society, proved seeing the horse drawing a cab in Oxford-street, and observing that it was dragging one of its legs behind it, he examined the poor animal, and finding the state it was in took the prisoner into custody. He had never seen a horse in a worse condition. Prisoner said he had a job to take some ladies somewhere, and therefore used the horse. Mr. Tyrwhitt fined the prisoner 20s. or 14 days, and said if the horse was not destroyed the owner had better be pro ceeded against. A RETIRED MAJOR CHARGED WITH GROSS CRUELTY. Mr. Wm. Drummond Stuart, described as of " no address, gentleman," and who is said to be a retired major, was charged on a warrant obtained by Mr. Wm. Love, of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, with having cruelly and wantonly illused a female donkey. Mr. Thomas Wakeling, of Clarkenwell, appeared for the Society, and Mr. Sleigh (instructed by Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street) for the defence. Mr. Love was present to watch the case. Mr. Wakeling opQned the case at some length and called a witness, John Young, potman at Walker's spirits stores, Piccadilly, who deposed to seeing the defendant poke the donkey in a most tender part with a stick. The owner of the donkey, a man named Roberts, living at Chelsea, was not present, and the witness Young having deposed to having had money offered him not to attend, Mr. Sleigh addressed the magistrate at some length on the defendant's behalf, stating that he was instructed that what had been done was done under the influence of liquor, and by accident. Mr. Tyrwhitt said he should adjourn the case till to morrow, and a summens would issue for the attendance of the witness Roberts. Mr. Sleigh said he thought as the defendent had ex pressed his sorrow at what had occurred, that if the defen dant put the sum of £lO into the funds of the society— which was one of the most excellent in London—that the matter might end. Mr. Tyrwhitt said such a course could not be acceded to, and the case stands adjourned till to-morrow. Bail was accepted. MARKETS---TIIIS DAY. MARK LANE.

To-day's market was but moderately supplied with beasts in very middling condition. The few prime breeds on offer commanded a steady sale, at full prices ; otherwise the beef trade was in a sluggish state, on rather easier terms. The top figure for beef , was 4s 8d per 81bs. Sheep, the show of which was by no means extensive, met a dull inquiry, and, in some instances, the quotations were in favour of buyers. The best Downs sold at 5s 4d per Slbs. The few lambs on offer were disposed of at previous rates— via., from 5s to 6s 4d per 81bs. 'We have to report a dull sale for calves, on former terms.

NORTH FORE LAND LIGHTHOUSE. MARGATE, Weda:?sday.—The most extensive fire that has occurred for many years in the county broke out yesterday afternoon, and as late as eight o'clock to-night was not wholly extinguished. The scene of its operations covered a large superficics, upon which stood sundry ricks of wheat, barns, thrashing houses, stabling, cow-houses, the farm house,- and sundry other outbuildings. The premises were probably as large as any in the district, and 1- nown as Blackburn's Farm, standing between St. Peter's and Kingsgate, near this town. The discovery was made by one of the farm servants through seeing smoke rolling up from the centre of the homestead. It was then found that a considerable quantity of grain had from some cause be come ignited, and although an instant attempt was made to subdue the flames, they travelled with the most extraordinary swiftness, firing in rapid succession two large barns filled with grain, 7 ricks of corn, the farmhouse, various agricul tural depots, and presented an immense sheet of flame which could be seen at dark distinctly at Ramsgate, and it is said by passengers by the steamers on the other side of the sea. One thing is quite certain, that the while cliffs of Ramsgate were splendidly lighted up as if some grand pyrotechnic display was going on. Expresses were sent off in all directions for the engines, and upon the light and the smoke of the conflagration being seen front the distance, the fire-bells were rung with full vigour, and as soon as a sufficient number of men could be got toge ther for manning the engines, those from Margate, Rams gate, and the Isle of Thanet started to the scene of devastation, but the fire had previously obtained too firm a hold to succumb to such limited hydraulic force, and the fire continued to spread. Persons travelled to the spot in coaches, broughams, on horseback, in waggonettes, and, in fact, all kinds of vehicles. The engines, as before stated, were unable to combat effectually with such a vast amount of fire, and every one remarked that the fire , - extinguishing apparatus in that part of the country was far from being perfect—not kept in an efficient state, like those of the London Brigade. Fortunately, the horses were all saved just in the nick of time, but the stabling, like the other property, was destroyed. The total loss must amount to several thousand pounds sterling. The fire, it is supposed, was caused from some of the grain, during the late wet season, having been stowed away whilst damp, and over-heating ; hence the calamitous event, which in the true sense of the word it has unquestionably proved to be. Mr. Charles White, of the County Fire office, and Mr. Hadsell, surveyors to the principal London fire-offices, were present during the day, but they were then unable to find out the amount of loss or the insurance. MANCHESTER 4ND LIVERPOOL AGRI- CULTURAL SOCIETY. WARRINGTON, WEDNESDAY. The fifteenth annual show of the above-named society was opened here this morning. Although this year the total entries are some what less than those in 1861, being 1,740 as against 2,150, there is an increase in several of the most important departments. The most interesting part of the show is that of implements and machinery. There are 70 stands of imple ments, and 967 entries. The exhibitors are from Manchester, Liverpool, Warrington, Leeds, Lincoln, Sheffield, Carlisle, Knutsford, Birmingham, Gloucester, Herefordshire, Grantham, and other parts of the country, and there is one ex hibitor from Canada. Steam engines are at work in every part of the field set apart for implements, making bricks, driving circular saws, and setting all kinds of machines in motion. A more complete collection of steam-engines has probably seldom been brought together. The show of horses is unusually good, the tho roughbreds being of fine qudlity. The horned cat tle are below the average in number. The show of poultry is extensive. There is but a scanty exhi bition of roots, vegetables, fruits, and flowers, but there is nothing to complain of on the score of merit. The entries of horned cattle are 73 ; of horses, 119 ; sheep, 92 ; pigs, 63 ; poultry, 138 ; geese, 11; ducks, 27; turkeys, 3; cheese, 13; butter, 22; seeds and roots, 74; saddlery, 4. There are also ninety-nine competitors for special prizes given by the War rington local committee to amateur cottage gar deners and others. There are 27 entries of flowers. The annual dinner of the society was held this afternoon. Colonel PATTEN, M.P., presided. The dinner took place in a large tent on the show ground, accommodating about 400 persons. Lord SKELMERSDALE proposed "The patrons of the society, the Earl of Derby and Lord Egerton of Tatt on." Lord STANLEY, M.P., who was warmly cheered, responded on behalf of Lord Derby, and added —No man, I think, can look at this country now, and recollect what it was fifteen or twenty years ago, without being able to bear from personal observation his testimony to the value of associa tions such as this. No doubt we have still some thing to learn and a great deal to do, but no man can now travel in any direction over the country which he remembers some yens ago in this neighbourhood without seeing that crooked fences have been levelled, that small fields have been laid together, that morasses have been drained, that weeds are less frequent than before, that land which was formerly unproductive from wet has been brought under drainage into a rich culti vation, and above all that, gradually and slowly, yet steadily, in many departments of agricultural industry hand-labour is being superseded by imple ments of the class which we have seen in the show yard. (Cheers.) He concluded by expressing re gret that there was not a larger number of tenant farmers in the association, and proposing the health of the chairman. CARBINE MATCH.—A challenge, given by the 10th x ent (Woolwich Arsenal) Volunteer Artillery to the Ist Kent (Gravesend) Artillery Corps, to compete for a series of prizes with the regulation carbine, has been ac cepted, and the match will come off on Saturday next, at the Erith practice range. The distances will be 100, 200, and 300 yards. THE NEW TRAINING SHIPS AT LEITH.—It will interest our Naval Coast Volunteers to know that the line of-battle screw-steamer Meanee, 80, 400 horse-power, 2,591 tons —the vessel is intended to take place of the Edinburgh, 60, on Scotch coast— is ordered to be brought forward for commission, with a complement of 650 officers and mea, including Royal Marines. She is to be furnished with an armament of 24 32-pounders, each of 50 cwt. on her main deck; 26 8 -inch 65-cwt. guns on her lower decks; and 2 110-pounder and 8 40-pounder Armstrong guns on her upper deck. In addition to these she will be supplied with two 12- pounder Aimstrongs, and a few brass field guns for boat service. GREAT EASTERN RAILWAY.—After the meeting of the proprietors, reported yesterday, a special board was held, at which Mr. Love was e.ected chairman, and Mr. James Goodson deputy-chairman of the company. THE METROPOLITAN RAlLWAY.—Yesterday the immense wrought-iron bridge, consisting of 7 ponderous girders, the intermediate spaces being arched with brick• work, was successfully completed across the terminus of the Metropolitan Railway at the bottom of Charles-street, Hatton- garden ; and the thoroughfare will be opened for public traffic in a few days. The other bridge across the railway at the back of the Sessions House, Clerkenwell, is far advanced towards completion, and will be opened about the 24th inst. The Victoria Shoreham, taken by the War De partment, was yesterday towed down to Woolwich, to embark powder and ammunition ; and the Thomas of Goole commenced shipping a 12-pounder battery, 5,000 stand of small arms, and other war stores. Admiralty orders have been received by Col. Le mon, C. 8., commanding the Chatham division of Royal Marine Light Infantry, directing volunteer ing to be opened from the companies at headquar ters for detachments to proceed to Bermuda. The number of men required is at least 100, the qualifi cations required from volunteers being that they shall possess a knowledge of some common trade, as smiths, carpenters, &c., in order that they may be employed in the royal dockyard, where, it is under stood, convi c t l a b our w ill s h ort l y b e a b o li s hed.

ARMOUR CLAD SHIPS AN INVENTION IN 7HE LIME OF ELIZABETH. Strengthening ships with armour-plates or shields would seem to be no modern invention. It was practised in the age of Elizabeth, and with conside rable success. This appears from the following curious extract, which is taken from a contemporary MS. preserved in the State Paper Office. It was penned in the year 1596 by " poor Captain John Yang, of Gt Lawraunce Powitneislane, in London, near to the owld Swanne," a veteran of 40 years' experience in naval affairs. Like too many more of our early mechanical genuses he profited little by his skill, and (to the disgrace of the Queen) still less by his patriotism. The captain was specially employed in the memorable summer of 'BB " for the discovery of the Duke of Medina," i.e. to give warn ing to the Government of the approach of the Spanish Armada. He was afterwards associated with another officer of his own rank named Prowse, in disposing the fire-ships which Effectually dis persed that magnificent fleet when anchored off Calais—a service for which the poor gentleman was never remunerated, nor even compensated for his " own great ship, worth more than a thousand pounds," which was one of the eight selected for combustion. A very curious document is the inventory of her contents. Yong's paper, or "motion" as he designates it, is addressed to the Earl of Essex. By substituting shields for "frames," and rendering his account in modern English, it then might very well pass for one of those descriptions of experiments in naval architecture, and the resisting of a ship's hull, with which we are now-a-days so frequently favoured by contending engineers : " May it please yor honor to consider of this article following : " If yt maye please yor honor to thinks good of this mocon to the greats strengthening of her Maty navye, as other princes have bin inforeed to doe the like ; that is to saie, some of the greatest shippes and some of the others to be put into frames madu of straight & smothe rownde masts, not verge bigg but reasonable; and the frames to be made in this sorte, viz , ffrom the fore parte of the forecastell on the one side, & soe all alongst & rownde abowte the poope alsoe, and aoe all alongst the other side upp to the fore parte of the forecastell also ; and that theare muste bee made rounde holes through the ships side no bigger then thende of the masts will go in, close and straighte to fill the wholes; the eandes of the masts must be made fast down to the des or overlops ; but you must remember to place the eandes within boorde, just between yor greats peece, for hindering of the trauesing of them in the tyme of seruice, & the longe masts wch must make the frame without boorde, and theye must be made faste to the eandes of them wihowte boord, & fastened with strong plates of Iron made purpose, or ells with bowlts rings & forlocks, within boorde & without alsoe; and yor frames maie be in lengthe without borde 10 or 12 foote longe, or longer or shorter at yor pleasure ; but the King of Denmarke in his ships their frames wear eightene, ffo wre and twentie, & thirtie foot longe with owt borde ; but in my opinion they weare to monsterous longe; but wthin horde thende of your masts maye be as shorte as you shall think good.

I have seen the King of Denmark° inforced to doe all this, ar ells the King of Sweathlande woulde not have lefte him not one shippe, & if he had left his navye he hod loste his kingdome alsoe, for the Kinge of Sweath lande his ships wears more in number & bigger, & muche better manmed, with abundance of all war like furniture & municen, & of greate copperpeeces web. shoote a hondredth waight of osementes° er shot at euery shot; & euery one of his good ships were made of saker shot proof above in their cage works, and betweene winde & water of cannon shote proof, to keep them from sincking ; and theye had alsoe greate murdering peeces of copper to scowrs their fights. Aloreuer, the frames foresaide are good to be used especiallye in the narrow seas., yf the great inuincible fleet of the Spaniards doe come again, for the frames will make or navie ten thou sand men stronger then euer they weare before.

In the same paper, Capt. Yong suggests the re vival of " the °tilde fashion, in the time of King Henry VIII.," of having " a cheine nettinge of iron" suspended to the sides of the largest men-of war; the adjusting of which he describes at length. He strongly urges its re•adoption in the Royal Navy as a perfect safeguard, both against the fire-. works of the enemy, and their attempts at boarding, 4 Oaernund or Osemuth : i. e., balls made of the best Swedish iron. CRYSTAL PALACE.—The unfavourable weather of yesterday necessitated an alteration in Blondin's per formances, which had been fixed to take place on the gar den rope. The change into the centre transept had, how ever, one great point of interest, Mr. J. Rogers, of the Strand Theatre, requesting to be carried over the rope on Blondin's back, a feat which was most successfully per formed, amidst the plaudits of the numerous spectators. BRISTOL SUGAR -MARKET, Sept. 10.—There has been a fair business doing in British plantation sugars this week, principally with the refiners, and considerable busi ness has also been doing in floating cargoes for arrival, all at very full prices to 6d .per cwt. advance.

On the part of the medical profes sion, I think I may say that we have long since begun to believe that those medicines which really do benefit our patients act in one way or another as foods, and that some of the most decidedly poisonous substances are those which offer, in the form of small doses, the strongest example of a true food action.

The following is a letter from a distinguished officer formerly serving under Garibaldi : Turin, Sept. 6. My dear Friend,—ln the past days my brain, oppressed by the fatal news, has not been able to put together two ideas. I arrived here on the 3d in the evening. Along the road the sad catastrophe was announced to me by the telegrams. Here neither the ministers Conforti nor Depretis can tell me the truth as to the general's wounds. Alarm ing reports are spread, and I do not like to be their echo and cruelly afflict you. Now I know that the general suffers from the ball that struck the muscle of the right foot, broke the ankle bone, and hid itself amongst the muscles behind the tendon of Achilles. The surgeons are ►our. Prandino is a friend of mine, a learned man, and a liberal, as much as we are; and he has as sumed the cure, and he assures me there is now nothing dangerous. They hope to extract the ball from its nest when suppuration shall have enlarged the orifice and rendered the lacerated flesh less sen sitive to pain. The hero is as tranquil as his conscience. He desired to make Italy one, by freeing the Romans from their humiliating condition, and by delivering the Venetians from foreign insolence; and for his brothers and fellow countrymen, and for his king. Most transparent was his design, worthy of him alone, and a most noble enterprise. Never thought he of being a rebel to his king, never thought he of being a fratricide. The truth of Aspromonte is this. At the ap proach of the Bersaglieri to the advanced posts of the volunteers there was no sort of summons. One of our officers went to warn the general. He ran to the spot, when the rascally muskets discharged their projectiles. While calling to them to desist he was wounded slightly in the left ',side and the left foot, Menotti in one thigh. They surrounded him and made him prisoner. He would not fight. It was the others who had Rattazzi's orders to crush in any way the Titan who prevents the des pot of France from sleeping soundly, and thwarts his pro-consuls here in their mal-administration. These wretches will drag him before the Senate, converted into a high court of justice. They will condemn him legally, in cold blood, in order to be able to say afterwards .—" We have prostrated this giant. He thought himself the first of men, the all-powerful. We call him a trator to his country. We have conquered him. We wilt get to Rome and Venice when our patron chooses to let us." The King assists at the councils without saying much. He is grieved, they say. He is for amnesty; but Rattazzi is not at present. The bandit of France so wills it. Conforti and Depretis are also for amnesty for the general and for his followers. They resign —who will take their place ? We shall know them again, the turnspits. In the mean time the government raises to a general the Colonel Pallavicino di Priola and decorates him. And the man accepts it ! What men inhabit the earth, 0 fiend ! Menotti, Teresita, Deideri, Ricciotti are with the illustrious sufferer. The officers taken with him are all sent to Fenestrelle. Yesterday I saw Bixio just come from Spezzia. All are frantic with rage, on my word. Poor Italy ! She must endure to see the most noble of her sons, the honour and glory of humanity lamed by an Italian bullet, sitting on the stool of the wicked, for having too much loved and served her; and the man who has done nothing but harm to Italy, who in years past fraternised with her enemies, crying to the four ends of the earth, " He is guilty of high treason ;" and these mistakes waxing clement, go, intercede with the Ring for the pardon of such a criminal ! How will this comedy end P I, who assisted in " Platea," feel my heart and soul offended and grow better. I imagine your sorrow. In order to get to Spezzia one must hay') the permission of the minister of War, and it is difficult to obtain. All letters are sent open to this criminal.--Adieu, &c. TRADE OF PENNSYLVANIA. The annual report transmitted to the Foreign- office in May by the British Consul at Philadelphia, Mr. Kortright, states that the trade and commerce of that city have suffered considerably since the civil war began, but, notwithstanding the general derangement of business, the trade with the interior has been maintained during the past year at an unexpectedly high standard, the roads to Philadelphia being crowded to their utmost capacity with agricultural produce and other heavy freight. The main cause of the decline of general trade at Philadelphia, once the first commercial city of the Union, is that its capital has been chiefly directed to manufacturing interests ; it has assumed the rank of the largest manufacturing city in the States. Its population is now at least 600,000, and above 100,000 adults are engaged strictly in manufactures. Taking from its total produc tion every article of consumption, there are goods made and distributed to all parts of the States and of the world to the value of X 20,000,000. Pennsylvania pro duces every agricultural crop and cereal grain of the temperate zone. The average product of wheat is pro bably 16 bushels an acre, but on the best farms 50 bushels are a common yield, at about 601 b. per bushel. The State comprises 47,000 square miles, and had a popula tion in 1860 of 2,913,041; Scotland, two-thirds of the size, has a rather larger population. The public debt of the State is £15,666,000, the total valuation of real estate and personal property taxable for State purposes wad £113,810,000 ; last year the tax upon the same was £ 295 , 876 and the number of taxables, 642,462. The most not i ceable product just new is petroleum. The wild regions from Lake Erie to the Ohio are being made vast fields of industry by in its ed crude s t a t e , b u t i n the procurers of this oil. The yield is so g r eat that the are shipped ipp to distant markets refineries are totally inadequate to the calls up on th em, and large quantities of the oil both in the States and in E urope this condition it is very infl ammable and explosive.

The cause of the accident was the falling of a scaffolding erected underneath one of the arches, by which unfortunate circumstance a number of workmen were precipitated into the river and only rescued after very great exertion. The two lads miss ing,ei and who it is feared have been drowned, were last seen alive on the scaffolding before it g ave way. influence of modern picturesqu e wr it ers, we l oo k , f or th e m the s men rwonhesig enthusiasts,ned the glorying deat w death-warrant a n w t h of Charlest T part,ECROMWELLIAN I. a t of REGICIDES.—Under the they did, and incapable of resorting to any defence which would admit their conduct to be criminal. This impression is confirmed as to some of them by the reports of their trials, but not as to the majority. Gen. Harrison behaved with the most unflinching audacity, avowing and justif3 ing all that he had done. Scroop and Carew also behaved with great courage ; but Cook, who had acted as counsel against the king, resorted to every sort of quibble in his defence, and went so far as to say, " I acted as a counsellor in my own particular for my fee ; it was avaritia, but not malitia, falso, nor malltiose, nor proditorie." Hugh Peters, who had preached fanatically violent sermons against the king, equivocated, begged for mercy, and quibbled about unim portant details in a very pitiful manner. Axtell also, who commanded the guard during the trial, and, according to the direct testimony of several eye-witnesses, forced his soldiers, by beating them with his cane, to cry out for jus tice and afterwards for execution, denied that he had done so, and declared he struck them to keep them quiet, saying, " I will justice, I will execution you." The differences in the behaviour of these men are evidence that it was only in a few instances that the enthusiasm of the times carried those whom it affected out of the ordinary range of charac ter and feeling. Several of the actors in this the most memorable incident in our history seem to have taken a thoroughly common-place view of it, and Cook in particu lar argued the whole subject as if he had been arguing on any point of law. The readiness with which the ca k wZ: on the other side, and the judges on the bench, oat that hardly any of the prisoners failed to the same view, is highly characteristic). It ie w s re tru g e a c show the all of them perfect courage at their execution, No doubt the trial avowed and justified their conduct. the execution, where was a far harder test of courage than n ld make any d ifference.
