" Then take down your sails,' comes from the Oreto, and accordingly a hawser is passed, and the Oreto towed the Prince Alfred to Green Cay, a small island forming one of the Bahama group. On the next day, being the Sabbath, but fOr which the Oreto had no regard, the men began to take out of the t'.rince Alfred her cargo and put it on board the Oreto. They discharged six 32 •pounder broadside guns and two 68-pounder pivot guns, lots of stores, shot, shell, and powder. This took six days to do, when the Oreto, having these guns mounted on her deck, weighed anchor, hoisted the Confederate flag, her crew manning the rigging and giving three cheers. The last accounts we have of her is that she was at Cardenas, in Cuba, under the name of the Florida. (She has since entered the port of Mobile,—ED. _Herald.) Adjoining the Terrace Pier.

The number of lives saved by the Life-boats of the Society, nd other means, since its formation, is 12,690; for which services 82 Gold Medals, 713 Silver Medals, and .£16,0 0 in cash have been paid in rewards. The Institu tion has also expended £64,300 on Life-boats, Life-boat Transporting-can iages, and Boat-houses.

The Canadian mail steamship Bohemian has ar rived with the mails of the 27th ult. The President had issued the following order respecting further enlistment:— . _ " BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.--A PROCLAMATION. "Whereas it has become necessary to call into service not only volunteers, but also portions of the militia of the State by draught, in order to suppress the insurrection existing in the United States; and whereas disloyal persons are not adequately restrained by the ordinary processes of the law from hindering this measure and from giving aid and com fort in various ways to the insurrection ; now, therefore, be it ordered— " Ist. That during the existing insurrection, and as a necessary measure for suppressing the same, all rebels and insurgents, their eiders and abettors, within the United States, and all persons discouraging volunteer enlistments, resisting militia draughts, or guilty of any disloyal practice, affording aid and comfort to the rebels against the autho rity of the United States, shall be subject to martial law, and liable to trial and punishment by courts-martial or mili tary commissions. "2d. That the writ of habeas corpus is suspended in re spect to all persons arrested, or who are now, or hereafter, during the rebellion, shall be imprisoned in any fort, camp, arsenal, military prison, or other place of confinement, by any military authority or by the sentence of any court-mar tial or military commission.

Upon the arrival of the crowd at the house of Mr. Chase the band performed an operatic air, which was scarcely terminated before the impatient crowd made loud calls for "Chase." In a few moments that gentleman made his ap pearance at the hall door, and was about to pro ceed to address the meeting, when there was a loud call by the audience for a light, there being none prepared for the occasion, the only light being that of the hall lamp behind him. He said,— "My friends,—l believe all the light you need this even ing is the light reflected from the great act of the President. (Cries of ' Good, good and applause.) I understand that you have just paid your respects to the chief magistrate of the republic, to assure him that the proclamation he has re cently issued finds a welcome response in the hearts of the American people. (Applause.) No one can rejoice more sincerely in the belief that the judgment you have expressed of that act will be the judgment of the whole people of the United States. (Cheers.) I am, fellow-citizens, more accus tomed to work than lam to speak. I love acts better than words. (Applause.) But, fellow-citizens, nothing has ever given me more sincere pleasure than to say, Amen' (cries of ' Amen, amen, and amen l' by the crowd) for the last great act of the chief magistrate. (' Good for Abe I') In my judgment it is the dawn of a new era ('That's so,' and cheers), and, although that act is perfected under an imperative sense of duty, created by the military exigencies which give him the power to perform it, it is nevertheless an act so univer sally ' baptized in blood,' an act of humanity and justice, that the latest generation, whose liberty (cries of The whole world.') Yes, the whole world will pay homage to the man who has performed it. You will excuse me, fellow citizens. (Cries of 'Go on, go on I') If there is another word to be added to night it is this—that the time has come when we should bury all jealousies, all dissensions, all per sonal aims, all personal aspirations, in one common resolve to stand by the integrity of the public. Lei him have the most of our approbation and applause and confidence who does the most, whether in the field or at the head of the nation, in the Cabinet of the country. (Cries of ' Good, good and tremendous applause.) Dismissing all the past, let us look only to the future, and henceforth let the day of dissension and discord be ended, and let us do nothing but work for our country in that sphere in which God in His providence may call upon us to work." Mr. Chase retired amid immense cheering. The band then played the " Star-spangled Ban ner," when loud cries were made for Cassius M. Clay, who shortly afterwards appeared, and said : " My frienes and fellow-citizens,--I came to-night as well as yourselves to do honour to the great act which will make Abraham Lincoln immortal among men. I know and all know the great difficulty under which he has struggled from the beginning of his Presidency to the present time. The causes of these difficulties are not of to-day, they are not based even upon the fact that 4,000,000 of men born on American soil, because they happen to be of a certain colour, are the slaves of their fellow-man. Deeper, wider, and more important is it than this. It is to be found in the great principles which have been in contest from the commencement of this Government to the present day. It is whether men shall govern themselves or whether other men shall govern them. (' Good, good,' Bully for you,' That's the question,' &c,) It is not the question whether 4,000,000 of mankind shall be entitled to the blessings of justice and liberty which our fathers, in the day of trial and defeat, said they were entitled to, and maintained at the hazard of their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honour that all men were entitled to live in liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It is beyond this—it is a greater principle than this at stake—it is the right of man to govern himself against the divine right of an aristocratic cottonocracy to govern him. The speaker then proceeded to declare that the President was the representative man of the civilisation of the present age, battling against the aristocracy and tyrannies of the world,, for he declared that in all parts of the world, wher ever an aristocratic tyranny existed, they were to be found siding with the South in its present infamous attempt to overthrow the best form of government ever established on the face of the earth. He said the question was liberty or slavery to the white race as well as the black. That was the issue, and he thanked God it had come to that at last. He did not look upon what effect this proclamation might have upon the four millions of blacks in the South who had been trampled upon and despoiled of their rights until scarcely a vestige of humanity was left in them. It was not, he said, to be expected that they would achieve anything great, even for the priceless blessings of liberty. It was for us to determine who was for and who was against self-go vernment ; and the speaker pronounced the man who did not steno oy the rresident's proclamation to be a traitor to his country and an enemy to his race. (Vociferous cheer ing and cries of That's the talk.') It would, he said, place the white men of the South in their true position, and show them they were fighting merely for the support of slavery. It was not for the 4,000,000 of blacks so much as for the 8,000,000 of whites that he welcomed this proclamation. True. there might be opponents to it ; men who had spindles to run, and others who had' ships wanting cotton freights ; but he declared that the interests of the great mass of the people were with the President and his proclamation. and he predicted that the people would not stop to see what would be the consequence, but declare that the right was always to be. He predicted that the effect abroad would be greatly beneficial to us, and said that no King, no aristo cracy, no House of Commons, no Chamber of Deputies, could stand for a moment arrayed against this great prin ciple." Attorney-General Bates was also the recipient of a serenade, and made a few remarks expressive of his thanks for the compliment bestowed.

Leland Stanford, Republican, California. A despatch from. Altona of the 24th reports the proceedings which took place as follows : " There were 16 States represented, 13 by Governors and the balance by other State officers. They have been in secret session, but enough has transpired to show the pur port of the gathering and reveal all that was done up to 8 p.m., when a recess was taken. The conduct of the war has been the tonic. Two propositions have been discussed ; they were :-1. To demand the immediate removal of M'Clellan. 2. The approval of the President's emanci p ation proclamation. These propositions have been discussed dur ing the afternoon, Governor Andrew, of Massachusetts, making fully an hour's speech in favour of both. He urged that the removal of M'Clellan should be demanded by this body. He was asked who will take his place ? His reply was that Fremont's staff was perfect and ready. Is not that reply the request of the meeting of the New England Governors with the New York Committee at Providence ? Governor Sprague, of Rhode Island,also urged the removal of M'Clellan, and showed, by his remarks, that he has gene over, body, soul, and breeches, to the infernal' Republi cans. Governor Tod, of Ohio, strongly opposed the pro position, declaring the people would rise up ea masse and re pudiate it. Governor Curtin, of Pennsylvania, also op posed it, stating that had it not been for M'Clellan the rebels would have been successful in Maryland, and that he fought the battle of Antietam before his reinforcements arrived, and was successful with a force much *less than those engaged against him. Governor Bradford, of Mary land, declared that even if there was a blemish in M'Clel land's character this was no time to demand his removal. He believed him to be the best general in the country ; that he had the perfect and unqualified confidence of all loyal men in Maryland, as he should have in every loyal State. rho debate ravealed the fact that the infernals' are play ing a deep ganie—nothing less than th e i r r evo l u tionary schemes of superseding the President, and making Fremont the ' great man.' The prospects now are that they will v i s it Washington and importune th 4 President in person." A letter from Nassau . of the 6th of September re lates how the Oreto, al i as the Florida, received her armament : g, O n e fine Saturday night in the month of August , a few weeks ago, at an hou r when s ailors were likely t o be en chained by Bacchus, a m ob of discharged sailors and others were employed to tranship cargo fro m a schooner into the Oreto. I am credibly informed that about half an hour after they got on board the Oreto she put to sea,and in about three hours afterwards overtook the British schooner Prince The steamer Kate had arrived from Washington at Nassau, having run the blockade. The steamer Leopard had also arrived at Nassau, having escaped the Charleston blockading squadron. It was re ported that the steamer Hero had been captured. The Bishop of Nassau died on the 4th ult. of fever. Her Majesty's vessels Spitfire and Melpomene were in port. It is reported from the blockading squadron off Mobile that on the 13th tilt. the gunboat Wincna, Lieut. Commander Thornton, ran, under the fire of Fort Morgan, below Mobile, opened fire on the Con federate steamer lying there, driving off her crew, and damaged her greatly by an explosion of an 11- inch shell in her bow. Fort Morgan opened a heavy fire on the Winona, but she escaped unhurt. On the 9th the Connecticut captured the English schooner Rambler, laden with cotton, which had escaped the blockade from Sabine Pass. Instructions were found on board to sell her cargo at Havant , ah, purchase powder, medicines, army stores, and return to Sabine Pass. She was sent to Ship Island. Richmond advices of a late date announce that stocks had risen 3 per cent. ; American gold, 20* premium. Provisions were at famine prices. The _Richmond Enquirer claims the battle of Antietam as a Confederate victory. It was directed by General Lee in person. The Federal force was estimated at 150,000 men. General Jackson commanded the left of the Confederate line, General Hill the right, and General Longatreet the centre. It is admitted that the Federal artillery was used with fearful effect, and that upon the whole the battle was the most severe of the entire campaign. The following is a list of Confederate commanding officers killed and wounded in the engagement :—General Starb, of Mississippi, commanding Jackson's division, killed ; Brigadier-General Branch, of North Caro lina, killed ; Brigadier-General R. H. Anderson, wounded in hip, not dangerously; Brigadier-Gene ral "Wright, of Georgia, flesh wounds in breast and leg ; Brigade-General Lawton, in leg ; Brigadier- General Arrnisted, in the foot; Brigadier-General Riply, in neck, not dangerously ; Brigadier-General Ransom, of North Carolina, slightly. The Ariel had arrived at New York with 887,000 dols. on freight. }loin Panama we learn that Mos quera has seized all the Church property, banished the priests, and sent the nuns out of the country. The priests managed to carry off the valuables. Ospino and Calvo doubtless escaped to St. Thomas on the English steamer. SOUTHERN ACCOUN7 OF 7HE GREAT BATTLES. (From the Richmond Whig of Sept. 20.) We are kindly permitted by Governor Letcher to publish the following extracts from letters received by him yesterday : " Winchester, Tuesday, Sept. 16. "After the advance of our army to Frederick, and the issuing of the admirable proclamation 'to the people of Maryland by Gen. Lee, a movement took place with our troops, seemingly in the direc tion of Pennsylvania, but really for an important movement into Virginia. After sending a portion of his troops to occupy and hold the Maryland Heights, Gen. Jackson was directed by Gen. Lee to cross the Potomac at Williamsport, take posses sion of Martinsburgh, and then pass rapidly behind Harper's Ferry, that a capture might be effected of the garrison and stores known to be there. The movement was admirably conducted. Martins burgh fell, with the capture of 150 prisoners and some stores, the most being taken to the Ferry. The investment of Harper's Ferry was effected on Saturday. Sunday morning there was some firing, and it was renewed yesterday morning, and the re sult the unconditional surrender of the garrison -10,000 men, with all the arms, 50 pieces of artil lery, ammunition, 100 waggons, quartermaster and commissary stores, and many cars, some of them laden, and 600 negroes. This important conquest was effected without the loss of a man on our side. So much is official. It is reported that the cavalry, 1,000 in number, escaped by Shepherdstown. It is said the enemy were repulsed twice, with a loss of 5,000 in killed and wounded. Our loss was heavy. Our troops fell back towards the Potomac from reasons that can be easily conjectured. Jackson will now recross the Potomac at Harper's Ferry, circumvent the enemy, if he has the temerity to follow our advanced corps, and we shall capture or disperse the whole concern. God grant that this conjecture may be verified. Gen. Garnett is cer tainly killed. His body arrived here this morning. " F. H. SMITH." (BY TELEGRAPH.) " Gordonsville, Sept. 19. " At Harper's Ferry we paroled 11,090 privates, 425 officers, took 2,000 negroes, 15,000 stand of small arms, 40 pieces of cannon. Col. Walker's battery took 500 horses. Our loss was three killed and 40 wounded. The battle commenced on Sun day morning and opened again on Monday at day light. Their dead were covered in the ditches ;we could nit tell how many. In the fight at Sharps burgh we took 3,000 prisoners. Gen. Garland and Col. Strange were killed. Gen. D. H. Hill was roughly handled, but managed to hold the enemy in check." THE ADVANCE INTO MARYLAND. Narrative by a Lieutenant in General Jackson's army : " Frederick City, Maryland, Sept. 6. " My dear Mother,—l am brimful of matter as an egg of meat. Let me try to outline our progress since my last letter—date not remembered—from Racoon Ford,.you bearing in mind that I am in A. P. Hill's Division, in Jackson's corps, that corps consisting of Jackson's own Division, Ewell's and Hill's. You will not think me egotistical for speak ing of this corps and of the corps of Hill's Division, for of them I know most, and in truth their share was, to me at least, the most memorable in the almost incredible campaign of the last fortnight.

That evening Jackson's wh o l e f orce moved up to J e fferson , in Culpepper County, Long up :he bank of the river on Monday, the 2 5 th, we marched through Amosville, in Rappahannock C ounty; still ili :ther up, crossed the Rappahannock, within 10 miles of tLe Blue Ridge ; marched across open fields, by strange celintrY paths and comfort able homesteads, by a little town in Fa'iquier, called Orleans, on and on, as if 7e would never cease, to Salem, on the Manassas-b.2P Railread, reaching there after midnight. Up again by day dawn, and still on, along the Manassas Gap ,ltoad, meeting crowds, all welcoming, cheering, stariej with blank amazement. So all day Tuesciay, through White Plains, Haymarket, Thoroughfare Gap, in Bull Run Mountains, Gainesville, to Bris tor Station, on the Orange and Alexandria Rail road, making the distance from Amosville to Bristor (between 45 and 50 miles) within the 48 hours. We burnt up at Bristor two or three railway trains, and moved on to Manassas Junction on Wednesday, taking our prisoners with us. Ewell's Division brought up the rear, fighting all the way a force Pope had sent up from Warrenton, supposing us a cavalry party. Upon reaching Manassas Junction we met a brigade (the Ist New Jersey) which had been sent from Alexandria on the same supposition. They were fools enough to send a flag demanding our surrender at once. Of course we scattered the brigade, killing and wounding many, and among them the Brigadier- General ( Taylor), who has since died. At the Junction was a large depot of stores, five or six pieces of artillery, two trains containing probably 200 large cars loaded down with many millions of quartermaster and commissary stores. Besides these, there were very large sutlers' depots, full of everything ; in short, there was collected there, in the space of a square mile, an amount and variety of property such as I had never conceived of (I speak soberly). 'Twas a curious sight to see our ragged and famishing men helping themselves to every imaginable article of luxury or necessity, whether of clothing, food, er what not. For my. part, I got a tooth-brush, a box of candles, a quan tity of lobster salad, a barrel of coffee, and other things which I forget. But I must hurry on, for I have not time to tell the hundredth part, and the scene utterly beggars description. A part of us hunted that New Jersey brigade like scattered par tridges over the hills just to the right of the battle field of the 18th July, 1861, while the rest were partly plundering, partly fighting the forces coming on us from Warrenton, Our men had been living on roasted corn since crossing the Rappahannock, and we had brought no waggons, so we could carry little away of the riches before us. But the men could eat for one meal at least; so they were marched up, and as much of everything eatable served out as they could carry. To see a starving man eating lobster salad and drinking Rhine wine, barefooted and in tatters, was curious; the whole thing was indescribable. Our situation was very critical. We were between Alexandria and War renton—between the hosts of M'Clellan and Pope, with over 18,000 jaded men, for the corps had not more than that. At nightfall fire was set to the depot, storehouses, the loaded trains, several long empty trains, sutlers' houses, restaurants, every , thing. As the magnificent conflagration began to subside the ' Stonewall,' or first division of Jack son's corps, moved off towards the battle-field of Manassas, the other two divisions to Centreville, six miles distant. As day broke we came in sight of Centreville, rested a few hours, and towards even ing the rearguard of the corps crossed Bull Run at Stonehridge—the scene of the great slaughter of last year—closely pursued by the enemy. A part of the force came up the 'Warrenton turn pike, and in a furious action of two hours—the last two daylight hours of Thursday, the 28th of August—disputed the possession of a ridge running from Sudley Church Ford to the Warrenton turn pike. We drove them off, and on Friday morning we held the ridge, in front of which runs an incom plete railroad cut and embankment. Now we had made a circuit from the Gap in Bull Run Mountains around to the Junction and Centreville, breaking up the railroad and destroying their stores, and re turned to within six miles of the Gap, through which Longstreet must come. The enemy disputed his passage and delayed him till late in the day, and meanwhile they threw against our corps, all day long, vast masses of troops—Sigel's, Banks's, and Pope's own division. We got out of ammunition ; we collected more from cartridge-boxes of fallen friend and foe ; that gave out, and we charged with neverfailing yell and steel. All day long they threw their masses on us ; all day they fell back, shattered and shrieking. When the sun went down their dead were heaped in front of that incomplete rail way, and we sighed with relief, for Longstreet could be seen coming into position on our right. The crisis was over ; Longstreet never failed yet ; but the sun went down so slowly. Friday.—Hill's division took, perhaps, the most prominent part in the fight ; on Thursday Ewell's and Jackson's, though all were engaged on Friday. Saturday morning—day ever memorable! for it broke the back of the great lying nation—our corps still held that ridge, and Longstreet formed on our right, obtuse-angled to us, so that if they attacked, upon forcing us back, their flank would be exposed to Longstreet ; and if they forced him back their flank would be exposed to us. This arrangement was concealed from them so far that they suspected our strength to be to our left. Skirmishing and distant cannonading lasted till 1 p.m., when the action commenced, and soon grew infinitely furious. But they were outgeneraled and beaten from the start, and at half-past 4 or 5 p.m it was plain that they were terribly whipped. The fight was by far the most horrible and deadly that I have seen. Just at sunset our wings swept round in pursuit ; Jackson swinging his left on the right as a pivot, and Longstreet in the reverse method. Their dead on the field were in such numbers as to sicken even the veterans of Richmond and the Shenandoah Valley ; they 'left 2,000 dead, rotting clay, and almost innumerable wounded. Their dis cipline and night saved them from a rout. They retreated in tolerable order to Centreville. 'Twas de • cisive ; their whole army engaged -- Onlytwo corps of ours—and their loss, I think, te n to one 2don our side. Starke's Louisiana Brigade and the .

On Monday our corps moved to Ox-hill, between Chantilly and Fairfax Court House, wher e , i n the afternoon, we had, under a driving thunderstorm, a smart but indeci sive fight with three divisions of the enemy. In it were killed General Kearney and Stevens, valuable officers both. Thus the corns fought six days out Or seven, after enormous marches. On Wednesday, the 3d inst., we marched to Drainsville; on Thurs day to Leesburg, wh ere we m et D. IL Hill's corps, Ripley's division, and perhaps others. On yester day the army crossed the Potomac, D. H. Hill a little earlier in the day than we, and at a different ford. We marched till half-past 12 last night, started to-day before day, and reached this town by 1 p.m. or earlier. It is 24 miles from Leesburgh, and within 18 of Pennsylvania. Of the scene at the passage of the Potomac I have not time to speak, i nor of the battlefield of Leesburgh. Saunders, coming on in an independent way, captured the telegraph operator, turned him over to General On the first of November the Exhibition will bo at an end. 'P le immense collection which has been prepared with so much anxious forethought, and which has given every visitor a grander and more com 2rehensive idea of universal industry than could possibly have been inspired by any other means, will be bt'oken up and dispersed to the four corners of the world. From America to China—from Ice land to Natal—every land which has contributed will reclaim its treasures. It is sad to think that such a collection should ever be dispersed, but as the date of closing the Exhibition is now positively fixed, there should assuredly be no delay on the part of those who desire to gain either amusement or instruction from a survey of its contents. The last few days will undoubtedly be marked by the same over-crowding which characterised the final, week of the Exhibition in 1851. Excursion trains, organised by all the great railway comphnes, will bring up a host of visitors ; and so great will be the throng that a quiet and careful inspeetie , n of the Exhibition itself will scarcely be possible. Those who wish really to see it, and not to be harried along almost blindly by a crowd, should make up their minds to—Go at once. Go at once. We address this exhortation to all classes alike. Let the young go at once, for their visit will assuredly be one of those things of which they will be glad to think and speak as the years roll on. Let the old go at once, for such a sight will probably never gladden their eyes again. The neglect to visit it now will be a source of deep re gret hereafter. A careful examination of its con tents would be almost an education in itself—an education which can be given by no other means, and another opportunity for which will certainly not occur for several years. Its advantages are confined to no one special class. Whether the visitor be engaged in the more important branches of industry, or in the production of the number less appliances of domestic use, either simple or elaborate ; whether his employment be agricultural or mechanical; whether he desires to study the complex machinery which has given England so much of its greatness, or to gaze upon those exqui site creations of art which have given to all Europe so much of its glory; in any case, a visit to the Exhibition will be of incalculable interest and im portance. No man who does net wish to fall be hind his neighbours in the ran of life should suffer such an opportunity for self-instruction to pass by unheeded. It is not for itself alone that it is desirable that the present Exhibition should be an admitted suc cess in its results. The future has also to be cared for. The example set by the 1851 Exhibition has during the last eleven years been fructifying and yielding the best results. The stimulus is again applied in 1862, and the Industrial and Art objects collected together are universally proclaimed to be alike worthy of the age—worthy the interval which has elapsed. It is not that the prize medal of honourable mention is a greater stimulus than the reward gained by successful application of industry or art, which renders Exhibitions so useful. It is, that they afford all who choose to avail themselves of it the opportunity of becoming acquainted in a concentrated and combined form with all that is doing, in all the varied employments of life and in all climes. The epitome of human occupation in tha whole world may be seen at a glance in this way, but in no other. Only four weeks now remain in which it will be posible to do so. Very seriously and earnestly therefore do we urge it upoi the clergy of all per suasions, upon all employers of labour, upon all in places of power or command, to uCie their influence and means in such a way that all may pay at least one visit to the great International Exhibi,:ion of 1862. The metropolis, perhaps, has never hat . ,' so many attractions for the stranger as at present. Second indeed to the Great Exhibition, but second to that alone, the Crystal Palace should not be left unvisfed by any of those who throng to South Kensington. Kindred in its origin, and almost as varied in its con tents, it has special attractions for the sight-seer as. well as for the student. So far from being a rival to the Exhibition it may be regarded as its supplement. A host of exhibitors have already announced their intention of transferring their stalls to Sydenham at the end of the four weeks to which we have referred. In a great measure the advice, Go at once, applies to the Crystal Palace as well. The nights of Octobo are brilliant but they are cold; and the first hard frost will rob the gardens of much of their beauty. To the magnificent floral display which adorns the grounds no small portion of the steadily increasing popularity of the Crystal Palace may fairly be attri buted. Every day, however, has now its special attraction, in addition to those presented by an almost unrivalled collection of works of industry and art within the building, and by pleasure grounds arranged with such taste and judgment as to call forth the warmest praise from those who are most competent to judge. Either Blondin takes his marvellous journey along the rope, or Leotard flies gracefully through the air; the great fountains, confessedly the finest in England, are displayed; and when the autumn evening begins to close around the Palace, a sudden burst of light tells the visitor that he need not hurry his departure. Constructed on the plan , of those erected at Paris for the Emperor's last fete, some handsome gas candelabra have been placed in the nave ; and the effect produced by their brilliant light, shining through tropical foliage and filling the whole place with a mellow lustre, is in itself a sizht well worth seeing. There can be no doubt that all this will be fully appreciated by the crowds who will go to Lon don during the next four weeks. Excursion trains were never cheaper; and to one and all of our readers, whether their stay be long or short— whether they have time for careful study, or have only a morning to devote to the Exhibition, and an afternoon and evening to the Crystal Palace—we would repeat our advice,—Go at once. THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION.—The daily numbers at the Exhibition seem to show a slow but steady rising tendency, which is likely before the closing to lead 11 P to the long expected and long wished for 100,000 pc r diem. Only 12 more shilling days now remain, so that, now, if ever, the great crowds may be looked for. There is still but too wide a margin between the actual numbers and what it is said they ought to be, and unless a spell of fine weather comes to the aid of the Commissioners, and so in duces a popular rush to South Kensington, the supposed deficit may turn out to be a more serious affair than when the estimate was made a month ago, under the pleasant auspices of 60,000 visitors a-day. Yesterday the total admissions rose to 47,373, of which 4,419 were season tickets, 1,011 shilling-day tickets, and 41,943 payments at the doors. These are by no means large numbers, but they are at least as high as they have ever been since the extension of time was announced, and higher by nearly 12,000 than the average of last week. More than double these numbers, however, are required daily to make the final settlement of accounts smooth and pleasant to all parties, and especially to the Commissioners and the con tractors. What the amount of the deficit is likely to be, as matters are now going on, none but the Commissioners know with certainty. [ADVERTISEMENT.]—IIoIIoway's Ointment and Pills. — For bad legs, bad breasts, and scorbutic or scrofulous sores this is a genuine specific. The grateful and earnest testi mony of thousands who have experienced its unrivalled power over these complaints, and who have been raised from prostrate helplessness, and a condition loathsome to themselves and others, renders it q uite . Unnecessary to en large in this place upon its extraordinary virtues. Th e parts afflicted should be bathed with lukewarm water, an d when the pores are thereby opened the Ointment should be rubbed in a t least twice a day. It then penetrates b alsa t m o s th a e s seat of the diso rder, and effects a thorough and p ermane nt cure. These p re p arations are com p osed of a mild as they are efficacious. .:
