The LORD MAYOR'S Banquet yesterday was un sually brilliant, and no doubt great expectations were entertained in consequence of the appearance of the new Premier. However, these ideas proved illusory, for Earl RUSSELL was far too sage and sapient to disclose any of the mysteries of the • future ; and the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the rest of the Ministers present followed suit in confining themselves to discreet platitudes, which might have done as well a year or two back, as they will serve the exigincies of the future statesman who wishes to impress his audience without com promising himself. At any rate, it may fairly be said that the speeches delivered were all successful ones, and the LORD MAYOR particularly distinguished himself by the graceful manner and appropriate style in which he proposed the various toasts of the even ing. An additional interested is imparted to the civic festivities of our generation in consequence of the epoch of their celebration being, as the Lord Mayor happily placed it, " the natal day of Eng land's royal son—of him who is at some very dis tant day, let us hope, to wear her crown." The head of the Church and the head of the Law ap peared to do honour to the occasion, and ex pressed themselves in an appropriate fashion; but the chief interest was centred in that speech of the Lord Mayor's, in which he proposed the health of her MAJESTY'S Mi nisters. lle adverted to the " absence of one whom it has pleased PROVIDENCE to call from among us. In the death of Lord .PALMERSTON the country mourns the loss of one of her noblest sons, of an able, a zealous, and an honest statesman. He won the confidence of his Sovereign, the love of his coun trymen, and the respect and admiration of the civi lised world." It was certainly right and fitting that a tribute such as this should have been passed upon the memory of the late Premier in that place where he had so often appeared as an honoured and a welcome guest. The noble lord was popular everywhere, but perhaps he never appeared to greater advantage than when he mingled in festive assemblies. Freed from the cares of State and the turmoil of business, he was able to give free scope to his natural gen iality and his social t astes. The Lord Mayor ventured on giving a hint to Earl RUSSELL as to the wishes of the community respect ing practical and constitutional reforms. Lord RUSSELL, who was well received, paid a tribute to the memory of his late colleague and old friend in a manner which showed that he truly felt what he was saying. Lord PALMERSTON, he declared, was a man qualified to conduct the country success fully through all the vicissitudes of war and peace, and the reason why he was equal to these arduous tasks was this, " that his heart always beat for the honour of England, and his mind comprehended, his expe rience embraced, the whole field of the interests of the country ; and he was therefore capable of applying that knowledge to the consideration of those interests, whatever emergencies might arise." An admirable definition this of the peculiarities which marked the character of the late Premier, and have made his career unique among the celebrities of the day. L ord RUSSELL speaks f ee li ng ly of the loss which the country had sustained in being deprived of one who was always ready to render assista nce, and to throw light upon difficult subjects. Referring to the present aspect of affairs, the noble lord s p o k e in a very fair and commendable spirit. He declared that he should have been a " craven coward had he not responded to the call of the Sovereign, and endeavoured to f6rm a Ministry. ,, He also rendered due praise to his colleagne4 for the rHE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 10, lEEE. disinterestedness which they had shown in their TOPLIS an .

It must be admitted that, from one cause and another, Earl RUSSELL has not received that consideration in many quarters which the suddenness of his call to the high office and the difficulties of his task might well have en titled him to. We cordially concur in the appeal made in a dignified manner and a frank spirit by the noble Premier, and all independent poli ticians, of whatever class, will allow that he has a right to receive f airplay, and not to be prejudged. " I -think," said the noble lord, 44 it behoves the justice and generosity of Englishmen—and that justice I expect from them— that, placed in an arduous position, with the loss of a great statesman to deplore, they will allow us at least to consider of the course which we should take and the measures we should pursue, before they express any opinion of our conduct." After alluding to the twenty years' connection which had existed between him and the citizens of London, the noble lord declared that he could not forget the principles which he then professed; and, fur thermore, observed that, whatever were the undertakings of the Government, " they must be measures not of yesterday, but of to-day." If their measures are wise, the Ministry will be proud to receive the confidence of the country, but if they are not considered so they will bow to the judg ment of the people with respect. So far we may safely say that Lord RUSSELL has very successfully acquitted himself of an invidious task, and his first speech as he again appears before an assembly of his countrymen as their chief Minister has been worthy of the occasion and the thoughts which it suggests. The Lord Mayor ex pressed himself in eloquent terms in proposing the House of Commons and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and the right honourable gentleman also appeared to be in one of his happiest humours in response to the call. He said that nowhere would the absence of Lord PALMER STON be more felt than in the House of Commons, for he was there so useful and so truly appreciated. " The archer Death," he might truly say, "had stricken down the foremost deer of all the herd." There is always faith in the destinies of that august assembly, as was declared last night by the right honourable gentleman who is to be its leader. It was a good idea of Mr. GLADSTONE'S to declare that the House of Commons which has to meet will, "like those that preceded it, be inspired by what we may call the sacred genius of the place itself." On the whole, the citizens had no cause to complain, for the Lord Mayor's entertainment was grand by the presence of many distinguished indi viduals, and more eloquence was displayed than is usual on such occasions.

The third session of the Articled Clerks' Society was opened on Thursday evening at the Great Hall, King's College, under the able presidency of Sir FITZROY KELLY. The attendance was very nume rous, and a large number of members were admit ted, being no doubt glad to take the opportunity of listening to the discourse of one of the most bril liant members of their profession. They could not certainly have been disappointed in the learned and eloquent address which it was their good fortune to listen to, while the substance of it may very well be taken as a guide for self-education by all young members of the legal profession. The course of study which Sir F. KELLY marks out for the articled clerks is by no means a slight or superficial one. The man who successfully followed it would be fit not only for an attorney or even a barrister, but for any position in the land. Yet considering the nature and importance of both branches of the legal pro fession, Sir FITZROY KELLY does not aim at too much, even though he urges the young student to efforts which must demand unwearied energy, un flagging diligence. He began by expatiating upon the importance of their future profession. "The class of attorneys," he said, " by common consent, are admitted to be, practically speaking, the most powerful class in the community in every relation in life, and in every transaction to be found within the limits of the kingdom." This is comprehensive enough certainly, and perhaps we may some of us think the public would be none the worse if the un palatable truth were of less universal application. Considering the extent and importance of his duties, argued Sir F. KELLY, the training of the future solicitor ought to be as perfect as possible, since not only his own character, success, and fortune will depend upon it, but also, taken in the aggregate, "the justice, the integrity, and the legality of all the transactions in business and property of this mighty empire." The great re quisite for the faithful discharge of these onerous duties he considers to be a sound and compre hensive education, and by this he does not mean the mere acquaintance of legal knowledge, the in formation, however directly serviceable, to be ob tained by an attendance at law classes, but an actual general education, such as the members of any profession might be glad to obtain. It does not, indeed, expect or require that the articled clerks, or even the great body of solicitors them selves, should require the high classical training of the universities, but he advises no young man to rest satisfied till he has obtained a good knowledge of Latin prose. Without that knowledge he can never hope to rise to any height in his profession, and he will be subject to endless difficulties and mortifications. Of even more importance he ranks the study of the modern languages, most especially of French. It would, indeed, be of great advantage to all our business men if they would acquire in youth a thorough conversational knowledge of that tongue. In these days of universal travel, when business, if not pleasure, calls so many abroad, the knowledge of French, which is, in fact, the key to the Continent, should be far more general than it is. And what is learned of it is seldom of much practical use. A man may read a French book slowly and carefully, or he may perhaps indite a letter by the help of the grammar and dictionary at his elbow, but as a general rule Eng lishmen who know French would be quite unequal to maintain an argument with a Frenchman. Yet this is the sort of knowledge that Sir FITZROY KELLY advises the students to obtain, and he men tions a case in point, to show them of what advan tage they would find it in their progression. Within the last few days he was applied to to name a solicitor who should go to three continental countries in respect to a cause of great importance. It was necessary that the solicitor should speak French with fluency, and be able to understand and answer letters in that language. 'We may easily guess that Sir FITZROY. KELLY'S acquaintance with solicitors and attorneys is tolerably comprehensive, yet he assuresus that he had to apply to no less than sixteen persons before he could meet with one who I could do what was wanted, and, after all, he did not meet with the pe r s on h e requ i re d. " B oys at school," said th e l earne d gen tl eman, very tru l y, "are taught the French grammar and to speak a little, but as to writing letters, or main. taming an argument, or persuading a man who is not quite willing to do what you want, or to answer objections to something you propose, they are utterly incapable." Yet it is manifest that if a solicitor wishes to prosecute his wishes in continental countries he must have this knowledge, or else he will have to resort to the costly incumbrance of an interpreter, and no soli citor needs to be reminded that he can do for him self what no kind party can do for him. If he is ignorant of the language in which the inquiries must be made, the witnesses examined, the papers read, he will be altogether at a disadvantage, and • a far less able man with a worse cause who is able to speak for himself may push forward and carry off the triumph. This consideration is not unimportant in these days when the rapid increase of our dealings with our neighbours naturally gives rise also to increase of litigation in foreign matters. In addition to causes which required to be followed up abroad, there are numerous instances in which foreign witnesses have to be examined, foreign documents read in this country, and an accomplished solicitor should certainly be able to act for himself in those matters. Yet Sir FITZROY KELLY, no mean judge, confidently asserts that there are not twenty men in the profession who could fully discharge such duties as were required in the cause he 'mentioned. German he ranked next in importance, and Italian and Spanish folios so easily on the knowlege of Latin that they can scarcely be ranked with actual studies. Then he came to matters of a more do mestic nature, and recommended a sound know ledge of geography and history to men who may have to deal with questions affecting distant places, and to refer to the statutes of our early kings. To complete the list, he stipulated that they should be good mathematicians and good account ants, which does not always follow, and closed his comprehensive list by advising them to become good English scholars. Certainly if they do not fulfil the last injunction they will not be able to put their hardly-acquired knowledge to much purpose, but none of the branches oZ study recommended by the speaker need be profitless. Such an education, he plainly told them, could not be acquired without much labour, the sacrifice of many pleasures, and the occasional surrender of an entire vacation. But, in return, he assured them that if they followed his advice, none of them need fail to realise a moderate degree of comfort and independence, while they would have it in their power, if their talents and opportunities allowed, to rise to the very highest ranks of their profession. No more remark able example could have been cited by Sir F. KELLY than that of Sergeant WILDE, who, beginning life as a simple clerk, became an articled clerk, a soli citor, a barrister, sergeant, Queen's sergeant, Solicitor and Attorney-General, Chief Justice, and, finally, Lord High Chancellor. So that from the very lowest rank of his profession he passed to the very highest, and he laboured, as Sir F. KELLY took care to remind his hearers, under many serious disadvantages. What an encouragement is here to severe and unremitting study, what an incitement to exertion and perseverance. We must hope that the sensible and practical words addressed by Sir F. KELLY to his audience will not be altogether forgotten as a mere exhibition of forensic eloquence, but thought over and acted upon. There will be another great advantage in securing an enlarged course of study to the students of the law, which the learned gentleman did not naturally refer to. It will enlarge their minds and remove that nar rowness, prejudice, red-tapism, and spirit of etiquette and precedent, which is so justly charged against our English law, and too often against our English lawyers.

FAILURE OF THE GREAT LOW-WATER BASIN AT BIRKENHEAD.—This failure has led the Mersey Dock Board to initiate a new plan of dock works at Bir-, kenhead, and it was yesterday resolved to promote a bill to close the Woodside Basin, to convert the Low-water Basin into a wet dock, and to excavate the foreshore at the northern entrances, Birkenhead. The alterations in the basins are estimated to cost £167,000. What the excava tions will cost it is impossible at present to estimate, as the foreshore at 14ft. depth comes upon solid rock, and the last fts bill obtained by th e b oard provided for a depth of lift.

(Arrival of the Scotia, via Crookhaven.) NEW YORK, Nov. 1 (Morning). It is still reported that the Hon. Caleb Cushing will shortly leave for England on a mission to assist in the settlemdnt of the Alabama claims against the British Government. Mr. Seward has received official notice of the re moval of all restrictions upon American vessels in British ports, and has in consequence requested Mr. Welles, the Secretary of the Navy, to inform all Federal officers that the most liberal hospitality and courtesy will be expected to be shown by the Fede ral navy to the British nation. Mr. Seward has informed the Provisional Governor of Georgia tlittt the President cannot recognise the people of any State as having returned to loyalty in the Union that admit as a legal obligation any portion of the rebel debt. The Georgia Convention is reported to have unanimously adopted an ordinance for ever abolish- ing slavery. The election of Wade Hampton, as Governor of South Carolina, is contradicted ; Governor Orr is said to have a majority of 500 over him. The South Carolina Legislature have elected Pro.. visional Governor Perry as United States Senator. It is denied that arrangements have been made for the trial of Mr. Davis. Marine disasters continue to be reported. President Johnson has released John Mitchell, at the solicitation of the Fenian Congress. A Fenian delegation waited upon the President to thank him for having acceded to their request. Mr. Johnson replied as follows :—" We cannot remem ber Mitchell's American career, but we were anxious as a mark of respect, and as a compliment to a large section of our countrymen with whom Mitchell was personally identified, to yield to their expressed wishes in that regard." The Clontarf circle of Fenians have held a meet ing at New York. The State Centre declared that numerous Fenian privateers would shortly be afloat, several of which were now being eqnipped at New York. The Toronto papers assert that the Canadian Government is organising an army of 40,000 men to guard the frontier. Sir Morton Peto has entertained Chief-Justice Chase, Admiral Farragut, and Generals Dix and Hooker, at a grand banquet at Delmonico's. Speeches were delivered declaring that the in terest and desire of the people of England and Ame rica was for the maintenance of peace. Numerous vessels have arrived at Fort Monroe, having been disabled by the late gale. A hurricane prevailed at Key West on the 22d ult., and wrecks have occurred along the whole Florida reef. The steamer Republic, from New York, bound for New Orleans, has been wrecked off the coast of Georgia. One boat's crew have arrived at Charles ton. GOOD CONDUCT BADGES FOR THE POLICE.—The Bath Watch Committee recently decided that they would grant badges to the police for length of service and good conduct, and on Wednesday 11 of the men received the dis tinction, which consists of a silver lace stripe on the right arm. The mayor and several members of the council, preceded by the city maces, went in procession to the sta tion front the Guildhall, the police force accompanying them. There was a good number of the public present to witness the . proceedings, which was conducted by the mayor. A serious catastrophe has occurred on board the steamer St. John, running between New York and Albany. The boiler burst, killing 14, and injuring Our magnificent mines of coal in Southern Russia and our copper mines in Siberia, so rich and exten sive, are hardly worked. Our gold mining is the object of private speculation, and not a branch of industry rationally carried out. Our mining system is still in its infancy in comparison with that of other countries. We can therefore boldly affirm that a very slight effort iii the case would double and even triple the amount obtained at present." FRANCE. M. Fouray, the responsible edithr of the Opinion Nationale, and M. Sauvestre, one of the writers in that journal, appeared yesterday before the Tribunal of Correctional Police to answer a charge of having, on the 31st October last, published an article in that journal containing false news respecting Si- Lala's insurrection in Algeria, of a nature to trouble the public neace. The defendants admitted that their informants had grossly exaggerated the facts of the case. The Tribunal declared the charge fully established, and condemned each of the de fendants to one month's imprisonment, and each, severally and conjointly, to pay 500 f. fine with all the costs of the prosecution. A communication from Nice gives the following : —" The usual well-known faces begin to be seen on the Promenade des Anglais, and the English visitors are making their appearance. Great improvements in the water-supply and sere erage have been effected during the summer, and several new hotels offer in creased accommodation to travellers, while the owners of apartments have materially lowered their pretensions in consequence of the building mania lately acted on. The consequence has been that rents have fallen to a fair average rate. The Opera and French companies are both performing, and the season, although backward, promises fairly to be a satisfactory one. Several distinguished families have already secured villas for the season." The bulletin of the Paris Observatory gives the following as the atmospheric situation yesterday : " A centre of depression shows itself over Europe, at Haparanda, at the farther end of the Gulf of Bothnia, where the barometer has fallen 12 milli metres since Tuesday, and marks 760. A second centre exists in the south of Italy, at Naples, where the barometer has also fallen 12 millimetres, and marks 750. The winds are still moderate in that peninsula, but on the coasts of Provence they have gained force, coming from the east. The barome . - ter remains high at -Valencia, Skudesnocr, Stock holm, and St. Petersburg, where it marks 770 milli metres. Rain is falling over all the south of France." In Paris yesterday rain fell rather heavily in the forenoon, and after a temporary ces sation recommenced after sunset. At three the thermometer marked 9 5 Centigrade (49 Fahren heit). Advices from Kiel state that the Prince of Augus tenburg has just purchased at Diesterbrook a pro perty composed of a house and a large garden for 130,000 marks (240,500 fr.).! Hitherto, he has been inhabiting the New Villa. His wife, the Princess Adelaide, will very shortly transfer her residence from Nienstedten to Kiel. In becoming by right of proprietorship a citizen of that town, the Prince prevents any attempt at expulsion that might be directed against him. A letter from Foix (Ariege), of the sth, says : " Snow has appeared on the mountains here. The temperature has fallen greatly; a few degrees lower and we shall be in full winter." The second daughter of Count de Montalember has just taken the vows at the noviciate of the Sacre• Cour of Conflans. A telegram from Belle-Isle announces the arrival there this morning of the General Transatlantic Company's steamer France, with 68 passengers and a general cargo. She left Vera Cruz on the 14th ult., and St. Thomas's on the 24th. Health on board excellent. M. Dupin is still lying in a critical state, and is said to have received the Sacrament in extrenzis. The following characteristic letter was recently written by the Procurcur-Imperial in reply to an invitation to dinner from M. Troplong sent with the official notice of the ceremony on the opening of the law -courts :—" The Saint-Chapelle is too cold ; the sitting is too warm ; your dinner is too good ; excuse me if I decline.—DLTlN." A new edition of the Emperor's pamphlet on Algeria has been sent to all the members of the Senate, Council of State, and Legislative Body. The Courrier des Alpes of the 7th has the follow ing :-44 At the moment of going to press we receive the news of a frightful catastrophe. The powder magazine of the tunnel through the Alps (Mont Cenis) exploded this morning at ten o'clock. Four men who were working at the moment of the acci- ' dent were hurried to a considerable distance, and their corpses when found were shapeless masses. A great number of workmen have also been wounded. At Fourneaux and Modane, nearly a mile distant, scarcely a single window in the houses remained unshattered, and much damage was done to other constructions. Details are still wanting. A letter from Lans-le-Bourg states that the passing of the Alps near Mont Cenis are extremely dangerous at this moment from the snow which has fallen." The Emperor arrived at Saint Cloud last night about seven from his excursion to Brittany. The accounts received state that the inhabitants of the localities in the neighbourhood of Korn-er-Houet collected in vast numbers, and made a sort of en campment for the night round the residence of the Princess Baciocchi. They greeted the Emperor, who more than once mingled amongst them, with the loudest acclamations. His Majesty, on Tues day, twice visited various parts of the Princess Baciocchi's domain, once on foot and again in a carriage.

Richard Harvey, the foreman stoker, was the first witness examined. He said that when he went into the meter-house before the explosion he noticed a large volume of gas escaping from the side of tho tank into which the governor went. The evidence of this witness was given with great clearness. Several other witnesses were examined, and Dr. Letheby presented a report upon the matter. The cause of the accident was made clear. One of the governors in the meter-house had got displaced by some one treading upon it. The plasterers who were at work in the place did not know how to put the governors in order, and thus there was a great escape of gas, which became ignited. The jury found a verdict of "Accidental death," and suggested that there should be protectors to the governors, so that inexperienced persona _should be kept from them. 15 passengers.

RUSSIA, The Russian Correspondence announces that a stratum of graphite (blacklead for pencils) has just been discovered near the Sea of Azoff, equal in quality to that of Siberia. A petroleum spring has also been found in the government of Archangel, near a stream falling into the River Betchora. The oil obtained can easily be conveyed into the interior of the empire by the ordinary roads as far the Kama, and thence to all the governments through which the Volga passes. The Russian Gazette of Moscow announces the arrest of the five persons who went, some time back, dressed as officers of the gendarmery and commis saries of police, to the hospital of Rogoisk in that city, and carried off all the money they could find. The principal, who wore a colonel's uniform, proves to be a tradesman of Moscow named Serenow ; the others being of low degree in the same place. The Gazette adds that one morning, soon after the rob bery, all the drivers of hackney carriages in Mos cow were ordered to meet in the Devilchi field, that the witnesses of the crime might recognise the coach man who had driven the thieves to the hospital. After several thousands had marched past, the guilty party was identified by the witnesses and taken into custody. The Correspondence of St. Petersburg publishes the following account of the mineralogical capabili ties of the empire :—" Russia is with reason con sidered as a naturally rich mineral country, but the wealth buried in the Ural mountains, in Siberia, and in Southern Russia still await the active hands which will give it real value. The mines there and quarries regularly worked would produce consider able sums which are at present dormant from want of hands and capital. The following official returns for 1863 show the little progress in this industry : The quantity of gold produced was 1,459/ ponds (3211 b. each) ; silver, 1,0781 ; platina, 30 ; copper, 294,168 ; tin, 4,025 ; zinc, 150,000 ; lead, 71,721; cast iron, 16,640,000 ; iron, 11,998,500 ; steel, 145,000 ; coal, 17,210,000. If we value the pond of gold at 13,753 roubles,that of sayer at 910 roubles, and other productions in proportion, the value of the above-mentioned materials will amount to a sum of 52,866,330 roubles. To that we must add 48 millions of ponds of salt, which, exclusively of about 10 millions of roubles of taxes, produced 14 mil lions of roubles. The receipts of the metallurgical manufactories amounted during the year 1863 to 25 millions of roubles. Thus all these products pre sent a total value exceeding 100 millions of roubles. That sum is in no way proportioned to the wealth contained in our mines, and those who would wish to form an idea of the value of our soil would be greatly mistaken if they accepted Aticli a standard. 4VAYP. Naval and Military Intelligence. Yesterday Col. T. H. Tidy, Assist.-Adjt.-General, arrived at the Cavalry Barracks, Spital, near Wind sor, for the purpose of making an inspection of the Ist Regiment of Life Guards on the occasion of the half-yearly muster. At 11 o'clock the officers, non commissioned officers, troopers, and band, under the command of Lieut.-Col. the Earl of Mount charles, paraded in the barrack square, when the muster-roll was called, the regiment then marching past the inspecting officer. The alterations in the north wing of the barracks have been completed by the contractors, Messrs. Myers, of London, and the building will, in a few days, be handed over to the commanding officer of the regiment. The men of the A, F, and H troops, who during the fine weather lived under canvas at the back of the officers' quar ters, have lately, in consequence of the inclemency of the weather, been compelled to sleep at the Foot Barracks in Sheet-street, whither they have had to proceed every night. It is expected that the men of these troops will be able to take possession of their new quarters this or at the beginning of next week, fires having been kept lighted in the rooms for several days for the purpose of drying them. The two floors over the stables contain 20 rooms—six large apartments, each capable of accommodating 14 men (well ventilated, lighted with gas, and pro vided with lavatories, &c.), and four non-commis sioned officers' rooms in each story. On leaving Spital Col. Tidy went to the Foot Barracks, Windsor, where the half-yearly muster of the 2d Battalion Grenadier Guards under Col. Cure, took place shortly before noon. On Tuesday an examination of the various iron plates submerged upwards of 12 months since in Chatham harbour, each coated with one of the numerous anti-fouling compositions, was instituted by the officials of the establishment, when, with the single exception of a pair of plates coated with Gisborne's anti-fouling mercurial mixture, the whole were more or less thickly coated with shellfish and seaweed, while on the plates treated with the mer curial mixture scarcely a mussel was to be seen, excepting in places where the paint had been rubbed off. As many as eight different compositions were tested. University Intelligence. OXFORD Nov. 9. In a Congregation holden this morning the fol lowing degrees were conferred, viz. : MASTERS OF ARTS. Rev.

'or the past two or three days rumours have been wh.:iired about in commercial circles regarding the mysterioua' abstraction of a considerable sum of money ,from the Moor-place Branch of the Clydes dale Bank. Like all unauthenticated reports these rumours have not been suffered to lose anything in their circulation ; and as the truth is likely to give place to fiction in an increasing degree, unless the facts of the case are made known, we deem it right to state the circumstances as obtained from a perfectly reliable source. The facts of the case, then, are briefly these :—On Wednesday last the two tellers of the branch bank in question were engaged at the close of the day making up their cash for the exchange in a back room, where they were in the daily habit of doing so ; and in summing up the result of the sorting it was found that the sum of £2,430 was missing. They were un able at the time to account for this unsatisfactory result ; but in the hope that it was merely an error of calculation which would be put right on the following morning at the clearing-house they sent away the money, which was locked up for fir.; night at the head office. This hope, however, was, unfortunately, not realised, and up to the present time all inquiry has failed to throw any light upon the mysterious disappearance of the money, which is believed to consist of a parcel of mixed notes—the sum of £2,000 being made up of 20 notes for £lOO each, and the remaining sum being in smaller notes. Information of the affair was communicated to the police ; and as the tellers were not for a. moment suspected of dishonesty, the criminal officers endeavoured to ascertain whether the back room had been entered by any one from without. The apartment is lighted by two windows which overlook a back court in which a ladder was kept ; but ingress could scarcely have been ob tained in this way, because the thick-lying dust on the window-sill outside was undisturbed. Failing to trace a thief in this way, the officers next directed heir attention to the possibility of any one having entered by a door which opens into the back room from the lobby, in addition to one that affords en trance from the tellers' room. It appeared, how ever, that this lobby door was locked by the bank officer in the morning and was again opened by him in the evening, the lock in the meantime not having been in any way tampered with. It was, besides, hardly reasonable to suppose that any thief who was daring enough to enter a bank in daylight would modestly content himself with one little haul from the table en which there was perhaps as much as £30,000 within his grasp ; and so this, the only re maining conjecture, was dispelled. Thus the mat ter meanwhile rests, the disappearance of the money being still as much a mystery as when the discovery of its abstraction was first made. It might be of material aid towards the recovery of the money if bankers and others would, for a time at least, exercise extreme caution in their transac tions with strangers, and if shopkeepers, warehouse men, &c., in the city would be careful in changing large notes.—Glasgow RINDERPEST AMONG CATS.—A disease has been pre - Valent in Forres for several weeks among the feline species which has cut them off in every direction. The animals appear to be disinclined for food for a day or two, then they have running of water at the month and nose, dull, bleared eyes, and great prostration of strength. They lounge about the hearth or in by-corners, and do not touch food of any kind for days. They generally die on the eighth or ninth day.—Forres Gazette. TASTE IN TIIE WEST.—It is said that on the occasion of Queen Emma visiting Wells, the band of the local volunteers turned out to do her fitting "honours.'
