The first of the annual series of winter concerts for 186647 took place on Saturday, and, though the vocalists who appeared have not obtained the renown achieved by those more favourite artistes whose clear, sweet strains are yearly heard ringing through the lofty nave of our greatest permanent temple of the arts, it was, nevertheless, attended by such success as to make it an auspicious precursor of similar performances which are to follow. It was given in the enclosure called the Concert-room, which has been simply and taste fully redecorated during the recess. Mr. Manns, the able and indefatigable conductor, on appear ing at his place was greeted with marked warmth, and having bowed his acknowledgments at once gave the signal to the band to begin, the programme opening with . the overture to " Ruy Blas" (Men delssohn). This vigorous prelude was played with a spirit and accuracy which reflected the highest credit not only on the musical director, but also on every member of his well-disciplined orchestral band. The aria " Cangio d'aspetto" (Handel) was set down for Mdlle. Elvira Behrens, and was rendered by that lady with evident care, but not with such effect as to elicit any marked expression of opinion from a numerous and sympathising audi ence. Mdlle. Behrens' rich contralto was heard to far greater advantage in the two duets which she afterwards sang in conjunction with Mdlle. Ene quist, who possesses a fine soprano voice of pure quality and of considerable compass. Both the pieces alluded to —n a m ely, " Schon Blumlein " (Schumann), a soft, simple melody, and " Maig lockchen" (Mendelssohn), a sprightly, tripping composition—were received with such favour as to but narrowly escape repetition. Mdlle. Enequist gave the romance " Sombre foret," from " Guil laume Tell" (Rossini), with appropriate force and feeling, while the solemn suggestive accompaniment was played by the band with singularly happy effect. The solo pianist engaged for the occasion was Herr Fritz Hartvigson, from Copenhagen, who made his first appearance at the Crystal Palace on Saturday. He chose a grand fantasia by Schubert, introducing the air of " The Wanderer" in the slow movement. The performance was remarkable for the care evi dently bestowed upon it, and also for undeviating accuracy. Mr. Hartvigson plays with great energy and brilliancy. The other morceaux which appeared on the programme were the song " Serenade" (Gou nod), allotted to Malle. Elvira Behrens, and the aria, "A h, fors'e lui," from " Traviata" (Verdi), which Mdlle. Enequist sang so happily as to elicit loud expressions of well - deserved approbation. Undoubtedly, however, the great feature of the concert was the Symphony No. 4, in B flat (Beethoven), which was played by the band with a precision which kept the audience in rapt attention from the first chord to the last of its exquisite melody. Every note was given with marvellous distinctness, the first movement, " Adagio ed allegro vivace," . evidently finding the greatest favour with those who had the good fortune to hear it on Saturday, and who rewarded its rendering by enthusiastic marks of appreciation. The meed of praise which is cer tainly due to the members of the orchestra, whose services are too often left unrecognised, must be most emphatically given, inasmuch as it is impossible, from the number of the instrumentalists, to charac terise any individual effort. The concert, which was, as maybe seen, varied and excellent, was brought to a close about five o'clock by the performance of the " Entr' Acts et Polonaise" (Meyerbeer), then executed for the first time at the Crystal Palace.

The persistent attempts of Mr. Seward and others to declare General Grant's political views during the Presi dential electioneering tour have driven the General into an express repudiation of the idea that any political signifi cance attaches to his presence with the party. His brief speech in New York, in which he said that an agreement had been made before they started that there was to be no speech-making on their journey, and Admiral Farragut's remark at the same place that the President of the United States was his commanding officer, and that he had always considered the request of his superior officer equivalent to a command, were sufficient in themselves to indicate that the two principal officers of the army and navy had accom panied the party at the President's request and not of their own volition, and that the tour, so far as they were con cerned, was exactly what it purported to be—a journey to the grave of a deceased statesman, having no political sig nificance whatever." We have known these facts from the beginning, and we now state, for the information of those who are accustomed to read th e Chi c ago Tribune, and who believe thatth a t Generalwe wouldG Grant didwillinglydeceiveaccompaay the party at the Presi dent's them, that we kno w dent's request, after having dklined an invitation from the Committee of Arrangements ; and that he has repeat edly stated, during the course of the journey, that his presence had no political bearing or consequence what ever. The discretion observed by the General through out the tour has been admirable and praiseworthy. In the midst of debauchery and blackguardism he has ob served the proprieties of life, and the etiquette of the military profession. Conscious that he was taken along by the President for the purpose of giving eclat to Andrew Johnson and his policy of degrading and injuring himself in the estimation of his friends, and of giving a triumph to his enemies, North and South, who will never forgive him for having crushed Lee's army, and taken the rebel capital, he has borne even this infliction with his usual composure. In fact Grant and Farragut were the only persons in the whole party who demeaned themselves as gentlemen. The public early recognised this fact and lavished unbounded honours upon them accordingly. We desire to impress upon our readers the fact that we do not make these statements from guess work. We write understandingly. General Grant is worthy of the fullest confidence of the Union party. There is not a drop of Copperhead blood in his veins. , He cannot be used to overthrow the loyal Congress, either as the General of the United States army, or as Ulysses S. Grant, citizen. If Andrew Johnson intends to inaugurate a new civil war for the purpose of " arresting the course of Congress," as he said in his speech at Newark, Ohio, he will find his greatest obstacle in the great captain who received the sword of General Lee at Appomattox. This is a country of and General Grant is the foremost living embodiment of law. Ile buttons his coat around more law than any other American citizen. Ho has executed more law than any other man whom this country has ever produced. The army of the United States is created by law and governed by law. Every order issued by any officer, from the President down to the lowest subaltern, depends upon law for its validity and binding force. Not even a private soldier can plead the orders of his superior as a warrant for an unlawful act. Neither Grant, Sherman, Sheridan, Thomas, Parragnt, nor any other high officer in the army or navy, would execute an order in violation of law, or in defiance of the law-making power, which is but the will of the nation constitutionally expressed. In any conflict which may be precipitated by the President, as fore shadowed in his speech at Newark, Ohio, the army and navy will be the foremost to arrest his mad career [ADVERTISEMENT.] —Holloway's Ointment and Pills.— Premature Decline.— The unwary and thoughtless may save themselves a sea of troubles in the future by an early recourse to these excellent curatives. All blotches, from whatever cause arising, all enlargements of the glands, wherever situated, irritating sores and debilitating diseases, may be safely and certainly cured by employing Holloway's ointment and pills in accordance with the instructions wrapped round each pot and box. No timidity need deter the weakest from applying to these restoratives, which exert the threefold qualities of purifying, regulating, and repairing, without disturbing the stomach, annoying the nervous system, or rendering confinement to the house necessary. Holloway's medicaments will stem the source of many maladies, which, when neglected, perpetuate misery. • THE CIIOLERA. SOUTH LANCASHIRE, Though every possible precaution appears to have been taken by the authorities to prevent the spread of the cholera, the epidemic seems to be making good its position in the manufacturing and agricul tural districts between Liverpool and Manchester. The last weekly return for Wigan showed that the deaths from cholera had been 10, from choleraic diarrhcea 4, and diarrhoea 5, making together 19, or an increase of one-third on the preceding week. On Friday the clerk to the Board of Guardians stated that, from an examination of the Registrar's book,' he found that in the month of September, 1865, the deaths from diarrhcea were 9, and the deaths from all causes 67 ; whereas in the month of September, 1866, the deaths from diarrhcea were 23, and from cholera and choleraic diarrhcea 29, making together 52, as against 9 in 1865 ; while the total number of deaths amounted to 140, or more than double those registered in the same period last year. The epidemic does not appear to be confined to any one locality ; the cases have occurred in all parts of the town, those considered healthy as well as others in which infectious diseases gene-' rally find a home, and, with the exception of a few Children; the victims have been principally per sons in the prime of life. The water of the five wells in the borough has been sent for analysis to Dr. Angus Smith at Manchester, and his re port is a very unfavourable one. The Public Health Committee have closed one, which held in solution in each gallon 106 . 43 grains of solid residue and 28.0 of volatile matter, and they are about to take into consideration the propriety of closing the other four —one of which is nearly as bad as the above, while the water of. the other three is of bad quality. In the out-townships there have been fatal cases in the Hindley district, where, under the recent Sanitary Act, the Board of Guardians have sent an inspector who has discovered some pestilentialnuisances ; and diarrhcea is reported from Standish and Ashton. At Newton and Haydock there have also been more eases of cholera, and diarrhcea is very prevalent, but the malady seems to have left the neighbourhood of Benscough, the, inhabitants of which township have very properly taken proceedings against the con tractor for the removal of the Liverpool night soil for placing several boat-loads of the nuisance in 'their midst. At Maghall, near Ormskirk, a French artist has been attacked and carrierl off, and from Bolton there is this week rather an alarming report. At the end of the previous week a father and child named Howarth were buried together, and on Sun day another of the family died, and on Tuesday one of the persons who had attended to the sick people also succumbed. A man named Peters, finding his wife attacked, sent for his mother to attend to her, but the mother was seized too and died first, her daughter-in-law following her shortly. Three other fatal cases have occurred, one of a woman of 43, who leaves a family of ten children. The epidemic has for the present left Little London, the suburb of Southport, where it committed terrible ravages a few weeks back. CHOLERA IN THE NORTHERN TOWNS. A considerable amount of anxiety prevails in 'the northern towns with regard to the progress of cholera in the chief of them. The true type of Asiatic*olera appeared in Newcastle, Gateshead, North Shields, and Sunderland last week, and there is great fear that it may become epidemic in some of these towns. It has also been fatal in some of the outlying villages in the county of Durham. Down to Friday the disease had only manifested itself among the poor of the towns mentioned ; but on the evening of that day Mr. Titman, one of Lloyd's surveyors on the Tyne, died of cholera, after two days' illness. The authorities are on the alert, and the seaports of the Tyne have been got into a thoroughly clean'and sanitary condition, and they are taking the precau tion in every fatal case of cholera to burn the bed and bedclothes upon which the deceased per sons have died. The following is the official return of deaths in London from cholera and diarrhoea registered on Friday, Oct. 2:— Cholera. Diarrhcea.

Our advices from the Channel Squadron do not agree with the statements that have been published in some of the morning papers. The whole of the ships, with the single exception of the Bellerophon, have either carried away spars or found it necessary to go into port to make good defects. The Research fell out on the very day of starting, but onlyfrom the circumstance that her very small engine power did not enable her to keep company with the larger and faster ships. Her commander, instead of proceeding to the rendezvous, thought proper to go into Ply mouth, and lodged a complaint about the scuppers to the new upper deck, but was ordered to proceed again in a few hours. The Wyvern turret ship, which is of 50 per cent. larger tonnage than the Research, and 75 per cent. more horse power, kept company, and steamed remarkably well against the head sea, but is of course very wet, and had to go into Cork for coal after being a short time out. The next ship in size is the Pallas, which has proved herself the fastest ship under canvas in the squadron. She was the first to set the example of carrying away spars, however, having broken her maintopgallant mast and sprung her topmast. The Ocean and the Hector have also carried away spars, the former ship having to undergo a week's refit in Cork before she can again cruise with the squadron. The Achilles has behaved very well, and is a steady ship in a seaway, but her foremast will have to be shifted futher forward before she can be deemed satisfactory as a sailing ship. The Lord Clyde has done well, but has been found to roll more than was anticipated after her cruise to Madeira and back, during which she exhibited great steadiness. The Bellerophon has shown herself a most buoyant and lively ship, and is pronounced superior as a sea boat even to the crack wooden frigate Phaton, in which her captain formerly served. She has not strained a spar or rope, and her officers are confi dent of beating everything, excepting the Pallas perhaps, when they fall in with a gale of wind. She rolls and pitches very moderately, and her officers are much pleased with her. She has, however, failed to tack more than once when the other ships have done it, owing, it is supposed, to some defec tive action of the balancad rudder ; or, as we think much more probable, to the want of further expe rience with it. Her rudder has a very large surface, and is a most powerful steering instrument, and when the nicety of handling, which is often required even with the ordinary rudder when tacking in a sea way, is considered, it will Rot be thought sur prising that it should take some little time toe o acof - quire a thorough knowledge of the proper m handling the new rudder under such circumstances. The complaint that other ships fired their guns when the Bellerophon could not is attributable, not to any defective behavio ur on the part of the ship, as one of the published letters from the squadron would lead the public to suppose, but from the sufficient circumstance that she has not her guns on board. Most of them are lying at Portsmouth, to be shipped when opportunity offers, and in the meantime the Bellerophon has on board a quantity of iron, which is raado to represent the weight eL her glum ex 4 7 1 Middlesex Agricultural Society. The thirtieth annual meeting of this society was held yesterday on the farm of Mr. Francis Sherborn, of Bedfont, near Feltham. The society has been specially established. for the encouragement of good ploughing and other agri. cultural improvements, and for giving rewards to servants for good conduct and long service ; and the proceedings yesterday were conducted with a view to the promotion of both these objects. A considerable number of ploughs were kept busy throughout the morning, and many rewards were presented to the best men, whose work was, we be lieve, very admirably performed. ; while similar marks of encouragement and approval were given to old and well conducted male and female farm labourers and servants. Major-General Wool), of Littleton Park, distributed the prizes, and afterwards addrewed a few kind words to the successful competitors. He reminded the mon that the steady and faithful discharge. of duty was the surest road to happiness, and he wished the younger and unmarried portion of the women good husbands, such as he was sure they all amply merited. (Laughter.) This portion of the business of the day closed with cheers for the Queen and for General Wood. The labourers afterwards dined together in a tent erected on the ground, and the gentlemen partook of a luncheon under similar shelter. GenersLl Wood presided at the latter entertainment, and was supported by Mr. James Mont gomery, J.P., the Rev. C. La ird, - of Harrow ; the Rev. Mr s Lebas, of Bedfont ; Mr. F. 3: herborn, the treasurer of the, society, and a number of the, other friends of the association; but the company was loss nu/ serous than on many previous occasions, and comprised more limited portion of tho leading landed gentry of ato county. At the conclusion of theLp ncheon the usual loyal and con stitutional toasts wore given from the chair,. and cordiallx honoured by the company. The CHAIRMAN, in proposing the toast of the evening, expressed his regret at the diminished support which the society had of late year sobtained. He believed, however, that they had in their day iperformed much valuable work, and he did not despair of rseeing the career of their usefulness still continued. He was aware that all persons engaged in, agricultural pursuits in this country had for some time suf• fared a certain amour It of inconvenience from the scarcity and the consequent.d 3arness of labour. But they could not regard that circurnsta Taco as an unmixed evil, becattse it must be the result of a gro wing prosperity among the great mass of our population, and i it was impossible that the agricultural body should not, through the increased demand for all kinds of articles of consumption, have indirectly, but still largely, participated in that blessing. (Hear, hear.) He beggedleave to give them the toast of —" Prosperity to the Middlesex Agricultural Society," and with that toast he would couple the name of the excellent chairman of their committee, Mr. Robert Stevens. (Cheers.) Mr. R. STEVENS briefly acknowledged the compliment. " The Health of the Chairman" was afterwards proposed by theßev. C. Laird, and the gallant officer, in responding to the toast, observed that he hail himself taken care to get the best men he could procure for the performance of his harvest work, and to pay them a good' price for their labour. The result was, that he had got in. his corn without a drop of rain, and he had since sold bis barley for 465. a quarter, (Hear, hear,) He had to pay for that, but he believed that he had obtained a fair return. for his outlay. (Hear.) The CHAIRMAN then proposed " The Health of their Secretary, Mr. F. Sherborn,"rand the gentleman, in return ing thanks for the compliment, expressed his belief that it would be idle to prolong the 'existence of the society if they did not receive a larger amount of countenance and encou ragement than they had done during the last year from the gentry and the labouring population of the district, and more especially from the me eaters of their committee. Their receipts for the past 12 months had amounted to £297; and their expenditure to .E 296, and they had £2OO in the funds; so that it was not mere money they wanted. But if their proceedings did not create a. greater amount of interest than had of late been observable amono the agriculturists of the county he should feel compelled to consider that they had outlived the period of their usefulness. (Hear, hear.) A few other toasts of a formal character followed, and the proceedings of the day terminated. ILLINOIS AND MLSSISSIPPI CANAL. We make the following extracts from the preliminary report of J. 0. Hudnutt, chief engineer of the Illinois and Michigan Canal Extension : " Hitherto Chicago has looked in the main to her mag nificent system of railways for her channels of traffic to the West and North. Nor has she looked in vain, for they have accomplished wonders for both country and city. " The shipments of grain to Chicago over the line of the railroads reaching the Mississippi River during the year ending March 31, 1866, were as follows :—Total, flour, barrels, about 1,000,000 ; wheat, bushels, 8,000,000 ; corn, bushels, 17,300,000; oats, bushels, 9,000,000. Reduce the flour to wheat measure, and wo have a grand total of about 37,100,000 bushels of grain, a saving of five cents per bushel on which would amount to $1,850,000. Add to this a like saving on rye, and barley, and grass seed, and the total would fully amount to $2,000,000. " The export eastward of grain for the time before named was—By lake, 6,500,000 bushels wheat, 21,400,000 bushels corn, 8,700,000 bushels oats. The amount by rail was-1,000,000 bushels wheat, 617,000 bushels corn, 1,087,000 bushels oats. "The export of wheat was 2,000,000 bushels less than the year before, on account of the short crop. "A glance at our map of the State of Illinois will show us another interest almost forgotten in our hurry-scurry for railroad developments, and that is the lino of the Illinois and Michigan Canal, which begins in a very good place, viz.—in ono of our rivers, but unfortunately ends nowhere. Notwithstanding this disadvantage, it has been quietly doing its work, and has assisted in no mean way in build ing up the commerce of Chicago. "In 1865 the canal opened ten days later and closed nine days earlier than any of the preceding five years, and yet the tolls amounted to more than double those of any other of those years, owing, as the superintendent says in his report, to the wet summer, causing high water in the Illi nois River. If a few thunder showers can do this much for the business of this canal, what might it become were the river made navigable through the entire season of open canal. The city of Chicago has appropriated $2,000,000 to cut down the summit lever of this canal. Aside from this interest that the city owns in this public work, the whole improvement will belong to the State of Illinois in a few years. The State, wo may say, then, is virtually owner. " In order to obtain a reliable supply of water For the sum mit between the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers, it was found necessary to Lap the Rock River at Dixon, taking from thence a feeder across the summit at Devil's Slough, near Sheffield. By making this feeder navigable, it will relieve the wants, long felt, of water communication from the valley of Rock River, for that river could be improved to its source, and, by the feeder, the whole trade of the Rock River Valley be opened to the markets, either at St. Louis or Chicago. This project need not interfere with the improvement of Rock River, but may be made the ready means of forwarding that enterprise to early com pletion. " Suppose this canal completed to the Mississippi rtiv°r , wheat could be loaded upon barges from the ware ho h iso at oog M'Gregor or St. Paul and sent in bulk to t he c River, i s and this all oft ; heroelevateden areh tate boats ready to be la oncof from barge tep d r e of Nor o w l l i e t r o h • merchandise for return trip. tedcOnstruction until the feasibility stra " t T ed he by e t n h t ieresurveysOf has oo ü b r e s e o n n d o o t m h ioung can be definitely told of the ofcostttoa ; but enough is known estimates shall have been com li p ne c just of oo ol t i h )l e e ro u to can be had.

In conclusion," says Mr. Hadnutt, " let me call attention to the fact that energetic men are about building elevators at Cairo and at New Orleans, and l e a a cargoes rapid g ora transit, New w propose to ship grain in bulk f rom the Upper Missis sippi, move ahaovirnlegaubs,oatsthruosadyto tnide by pre venting the heating heretofore encountered in that hot and humid atmosphere.

For wherever the grain trade centres, and especially at a point of so many commercial advantages as New Orleans Possesses, there will centre also the whole commerce of the Mississippi. "These facts are submitted for the candid consideration of the people of - Illinois as well as to the citizens of her commercial metropolis." WEST LONDON Rowtxo CLUB.—TIIO next athletic meet ing of this club is fixed for Saturday, 3d November, at 13rompton Grounds, when, among other events, the club present a valuable prize of £l5 15s. for competition in a quarter mile handicap race, open to members of amateur rowing and athletic clubs, the civil service, the Universi ties of Oxford and Cambridge, the public schools, and officers of the army and navy. All entries clove on or before the 27th inst., to the Secretary of the West London. Rowing Club, 44, Pall-mall, S.W. THE FORTHCOMING GUARDS' EIGHT-OARED MATCH ON THE THAMES.—Friday next has been selected for tho Eight-oared contest between the non-commissioned officers of the Royal Horse Guards and the Scots Fusiliers, for which the crows have been for some time in close train ing. The course selected is the fine reach of water from Bray to Maidenhead Bridge. They are both fine crews, and each deserves to be victorious. The Royal Horse Guards' crew are the favourites, the betting being 7 to 4 upon them. The expected race is exciting great interest at Windsor and 3, large amount of betting. I I .....,., e
