TlllB DAY.--31,..rning, 4 4h. o.n.—Afternoon, 411. 2Orn To-lf onatow.-31ornin g, h. 44' sb. 1.7 lut, Ledg, LONDON, SATURDAI, (ACT. 27, 1866. Last night a banquet was given to Sir Ilircix CAIRNS in Belfast, which was of a very interest ing nature ; and although it partook of a farewell character, yet, when the entertainment was first planned, it was not intended to be so. It will be remembered that tha learned gentleman had not decided upon taking the Chief Justiceship at that time • , but, no doubt had this affair not been already in train, a similar compliment would have been paid to h parties to him, as it was the general desire of all do him honour. Sir liuGn commenced his excellent address b y giving some explanation to his hearers as to the ci rcumstances which led to his ap pearing before them for the last time in the charac ter of their representative, When Sir HUGH ac cepted the office of Attorney_ General he represented to Lord DERBY that it w aEt Is earnest wi s h " t o re nder every possible assistan ce to his Government in the House of Commons , but that he felts o s t rongly the fatigue of Parlia m entary life, combined with official and professional duties, that he should b e glad if at a n y time an o pp ortunit y ar ose by . which he couH serve the country in a less laborious manner. To this Lord DERBY ac= ceeded with great kindness and consideration, and hence the change that bas taken place. The learned gentleman had to cast his memory hack over a period of fifteen years, to the time when he was first intrusted with the representation of the great and important town of Belfast, and he was able to say, with enviable good fortune, that he could regard the whole of that connection with satis faction. In referring to the principles which bad guided him, and the feelings which had inspired and influenced his votes and his voice throughout all that time, Sir Huon entered upon a spirited defence of the politics of his party. "It is the fashion," said he, " for those who desire to cast discredit upon Conservative principles to assint that those who hold them are opposed to progress and to improvement, and are chargeable with nar row-mindedness and bigotry. Now, I am, and I j have ever been, an advocate for progress and for improvement, but I am not for revolution." fitting answer to the extravagant theories of Mr. BLIGHT may be found in this passage of Sir Rucat's address, and he and his immediate followers may well ponder upon the words of wisdom here met with. The notion of transferring the government of the country into the hands of mere numbers is a very false one, and calculated to cause great in juries in all directions. Giving properties and liberties to the tyranny of a multitude has been tried, we should think, to a sufficient extent in America, and yet there are such who will not learn what they do not wish to become acquainted with. Another cause of satisfaction in his past career Sir HUGII CAIRNS finds in the reflection that it has brought him into close connection with a body of public men whom he believes to be actuated by a sincere and earnest desire for the welfare of their country, and particularly with regard to Ireland does he feel satisfied of their policy. " I feel con vinced," said he, " that her Majesty's Ministers will endeavour to treat her, not as the battle-field of a party, but as an integral part of the United King dom." It is satisfactory to hear from so high an authority that such are the views and intentions of the Government, and we feel convinced that Sir Hum' CAIRNS is too deeply imbued with the love of his country, and entertains too great an interest for her, to be led away by the in fatuation of party into exaggerating any good opinion he may have of their policy. Allud ing to the office of Attorney-General—which he still held—Sir IltGti observed that this was the first time that office had been held by any one who was not a native of Great Britain, and drew from that circumstance the just inference that it showed the absence of jealousy and narrow-mindedness to wards Ireland. The bold and manly language of Sir 11. CAIRNS is quite a relief after the style of public speaking to which we have been often accus tomed in certain quarters. " I respect even the prejudices of my fellow-citizens," said he. "It is oue of the many elements of civil freedom that every one should be able to hold and express his opinions freely, and that he should be enabled to do so without being opposed to the threats which of late I have seen public men exposed to that the multitudes will rise in their tens of thou sands if they dare to express them again." How true is this, and how much does :it con demn the course which has been pursued so wrongly and so mischievously in many quarters. As many persons may be misled by the specious sophistry and the ingenious mixture of truth and falsehood uttered by these Reformers of their race, it is just as well that some truths may be put against them, and a more powerful exponent of justice and freedom than Sir 11. CAIRNS we could not hope to meet with. Real free dom of thought and opinion cannot exist if one set of politicians is to hold undisputed sway over the minds of all, and exclude others from the right of expressing their views. Sir lIL - Gn concluded his interesting speech with an eloquent passage, iu which he said farewell to his hearers in the charac ter of their representative. In speaking of the town with which he has been so long connected, he said, " May loyalty and order, peace and virtue abound with her ; may her progress in yearg to come be such as to distance and even to reduce to insignifi cance the strides she has made in years past ; may she and may her citizens stand forth for pri vate worth, .and for political wisdom, the ornament, the example, and the encouragement of Ireland." Few public men have more rapidly attained distinc tion than Sir HUGH CAIRNS, and while we regret that the House of Commons must lose so distin guished an ornament, we are assured that his memory will long remain there, and his reputation be cherished among that of those favoured few, u hose politics and party sentiments are overlooked in the desire experienced by all to do honour to those who are an honour to their country, and whose genius and worth command universal respect. By the arrival of the Persia we have news from New York to the 17th. There is nothing very important, however, with the exception of the Attorney-General's official announcement that the PRESIDENT can do nothing further to hasten Mr. DAVIS'S release on trial. This is a most unsatisfac tory piece of intelligence, and it is not improved by the Attorney - General's intimation that Mr. DAVIS will be delivered over to the civil authorities upon the proper application being made. The answer to this suggestion must have been known to the Attorney-General before he made it. The District Attorney of Vir ginia replied that no such demand . had been made, because Mr. DAVIS would have to be confined in a common prison, where he would be deprived of the comforts now given him at Fort Monroe. These unhappily have become necessary owing to the im paired state of his health, and as there is no cer tainty that even when transferred to civil jurisdic tion he would obtain a speedy trial, his f r i en d s an d advisers are naturally wilting to take such a step. The fact is that the Radicals will postpone the trial by every means in their power, knowing that if JEFFERSON DAVIS were once convicted, the PRESIDENT, in the exercise of his prerogative, could and would release him from his tedious cap tivity, and allow him to finish his d a y s in peace. It is impossible to pardon a man for a crime for which he has not beeti tried, and thus, with petty malignity, the day is postponed and postponed, while the prisoner's powers of endurance wax feebler and feebler. If _JEFFERSON DAVIS were to die in captivity, as appears but too probable, without ever going through the form of a trial, it might be a triumph to the Radicals and the solution of a troublesome problem to the Democrats, but it would be a lasting disgrace to the American nation. JEFFERSON DAVIS was not the sole originator of the Secession movement, nor although, from his abilities and position, he played a prominent part in it, was its successful maintenance during the years of war olely due to his influence or authority. General LEE was at least as much a leader of the revolu tion as JEFFERSON DAVIS ; yet the one is living in freedom and retirement, while the other is de nounced as a felon. It is true that the illustrious General BUTLER, with more consistency than ele gance, declared that both should be hung, but, with that polite exception, the treatment of LEE and DAVIS is altogether distinct. President JOHN- Soli 'S , 's opinions on this point are prett 3 well known, an of them, Mr. has recently given an additional evidence lidi of the ex-President JOSEPH DAVIS,DAs, brother of pardoned the the Confederacy, was spring, • and has now had his estate restored to him and the back rents transferred. If the Federal Government of the States has any reason to fear the existence of one individual its foundations must be weak indeed, and no unscrupulous exereis3 of arbitrary power can suffice to prop it up. The Ra teals may rely upon it that by their treatment of JEFFERSON DAVIS they are doing more to damage the cause of the Union than anything which the released prisoner could effee'c were he ever so desirous to stir up dis affection !and bring the Government into contempt. The Governor of Mississippi has recommended the State Legislature not to accept the Constitu tional Amendment. In reference to this standing subject of dispute between the PRESIDENT and the Congress, it shows how strong must be the popular feeling, and how bitter the exciting antagonism since the fictitious despatch published in the New York journals obtained ready credence. This de spatch purported to contain a string of questions addressed by the PRESIDENT to the Attorney-Gene ral as to the legality or illegality of the Congress as at present constituted. It would, of course, have been the signal for an open rupture between the rival powers of the State, since it would have been im possible for the Congress to enforce the payment of taxes, or any other of its ordinances ; while the PRESIDENT, if he refused to recognise the existing Legislature, must either proceed to elect another, or attempt to rule without a Congress, in defiance of all constitutional Government. Happily, matters are not yet come to this pass, but that it should be currently believed that they had done so gives a significant idea of the state of public feeling, and should be a warning to those who are fanning the flames. STEPHENS, of Fenian notoriety, has called a mass meeting at New York for the 28th, when he will deliver his last address in America. What he in tends to do subsequently is not stated, but the news which reaches us from Canada is so suspicious that we apprehend the Fenians have had some, share in producing the disasters chronicled. At Quebec a violent conflagration raged for 13 hours, destroy ing 2,500 houses, besides property to the amount of to this catastrophe 18,000 persons have x:3,000,000.10.0wing rendered homeless. The disaster, of course, might have an accidental origin, and 1 among the wood-built houses of the old French city would no doubt spread rapidly, but the sin gular thing is that a large fire raged simultane ously in Ottawa. This certainly bears the appear ance of incendiarism, and we hope that the origin of both fires will be rigidly inquired into. The Canadians can very well afford to lose some of their old houses to replace them with new ones, though the season is unpropitious for the poor creatures who are rendered homeless. The loss of property is serious in a rising colony ; and if the Fenians are really at the bottom of the mischief, they will deserve less mercy than has hitherto been shown them. CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Friday Evening. The Moniteur announces that during the tempo rary absence of the Marquis de Lavalette, Minister of the Interior, his duties will be performed by M. Rouher, Minister of State. The Marquis seeks repose from his arduous labours, and has left for his chateau of Cavalerie, near Bergerac, in the department of Dordogne. Few official men labour so laboriously, so usefully, and so zealously as the Marquis. For some time he was not only Minister of the Interior, but Minister of Foreign Affairs, until the arrival of M. de Moustier from Constantinople. The Emperor and the French people fully appreciate his exertions to improve the social position at home, and to maintain peace and independence abroad. The following is from the Bulletin of the offi cial paper : " The treaty of peace between Prussia and Saxony, ratified at Berlin, has been published at Dresden. King John will return immediately to his States. He is expected to-morrow at Pillnitz. The Emperor of Austria returned to Prague on Wednesday evening, and was received with great enthusiasm. " The Vienna Gazette of this morning publishes an Imperial decree, convoking the meeting of the Croatia Slavonique Diet for the 19th of Novem ber. " Accounts from Crete to the 16th of October contradict the news received recently by the tele graph. Up to the 15th no serious engagement had taken place between the Ottoman troops and the insurgents. There is every reason to believe that tranquillity will be very shortly restored in the island of Crete, and that there will be no further effusion of blood." The total amount of the subscriptions for the relief of the sufferers by the inundations up to yes terday is 1,297,344 f. The sympathy of the Go vernment and of all classes for misfortune is unexampled. A denial is given upon what appears to be good authority to the statement that Spain had made a formal proposition to the Catholic Powers claiming their interposition to maintain the temporal power of the Pope. The Spanish Cabinet, with natural solicitude in regard to this most important question, has only taken steps to ascertain the opinions of the Catholic Governments as to the most efficacious mode of supporting the authority of his Holiness under the great change which has taken place in Italy. _ _ It is gratifying to find from all the accounts from Venetia that the Catholic clergy have zealously and earnestly joined in the great national manifestation in behalf of Italian freedom and unity. As an illustration, I translate the following passage from the pastoral letter of Monseigneur Corti, Bishop of Mantua :—" Victor Emmanuel is our legitimate King. You know it, and you should be joyful that it is so. To him consequently, to his repre sentatives, to his Government, to his laws, I enjoin loving and conscientious obedience. Let none of you, my sons, follow the lamentable inspiration of those who perceiving, real or supposed, errors in the Government, attack it virulently, and try to bring it into discredit." A supplement of the Dresden Journal gives the most important stipulations of the treaty of peace between Prussia and Saxony. The chief points are these :—Saxony is united to the Northern States. Dresden and Kcenigsten wili be occupied by a mixed garrison. The war indemnity is fixed at ten mil lions of dollars, from which there is to be a deduc tion of one million as the price of the cession of the railway from Laebau to Gorlitz. The Military Go vernment and the Civil Commissariat of Prussia will cease in Saxony. The treaty of the Zollverein will be maintained, but with liberty to object to it by giving six months' notice. Prussia is to have the exclusive right of telegraphic communication in Saxony. Yeaterdair the remains of M. Thouvenel were in terred at Metz. The funeral ceremony there, as at Paris, was at the express command of the Emperor conducted with splendour and ceremony, and all classes evinced their desire to pay respect to the memory of the deceased Minister so prematurely called away. As some foolish reports are still circulated about the supposed indisposition of the Emperor, I think it right to contradict them, and I do so upon the best authority. His Majesty, happily for France and Europe, is completely restored to health. He has been engaged with specially invited guests in shooting in the preserves of the Park of St. Cloud. In a day or two he will review, a large body of troops at Longchautp. The Emperor and Empress will go to Compiegne in the early part of November. A religious ceremony of surpassing interest, at least to Catholics, took place on Wednesday at Chateauroux. Monseigneur La Tour d'Auvergne Lauragnais, Bishop of Bourges, in the name of Pope Pius the Ninth, placed the gold crown upon the head of the statue of the Virgin Mary, at the chateau of Tonvent. Clergy and laity assembled in great numbers from all directions. The crown of gold sent by the Pope was placed upon a brilliantly illuminated throne, After mass and a sermon the grtlE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 27, 1866 Pope's brief of July 5, 1866, was read, giving authority for the coronation of the statue. The archbishop and bishops then performed the ceremony according to the accustomed ritual. The ceremony was concluded by the solemn salut and sacrament. Never were so many eminent personages assembled in the usually quiet town of Chateauroux, and never was such an imposing and splendid spectacle wit nessed there. MELLON'S CONCERTS. The classical portion of Thursday night's pro gramme was taken from the works of Beethoven. The performance commencing with the " Eroica " symphony. It would be impossible to praise too highly the rendering of this grand work. We do not remember hearing one more faultless as regards execution, or more successful in its interpre tation of the composer's idea. It was evident that both Mr. Mellon and his able orchestra took special pains with this performance, and they de serve to be congratulated upon the result. Of the four movements the " Marche Funebre" and the " Scherzo" were most applauded by the audience. " The Stolen Kiss," sung by Mr. Alfred Hemming, was scarcely noticed. We think where only one vocal selection was allowed, a far better choice might have been made. A selection from the Grand Septuor followed, the executants being Messrs. Hill, Doyle, Collins, Howell, Lazarus, Winterbottom, and C. Harper. Very beautiful was the " Tema," with its lovely variations rendered ; and not less so the " Scherzo," which so pleased the audience that they insisted upon and obtained an encore. Signor Bottesini then repeated his always-wonderful per formance of " Adelaide" on the contra-bass, and was compelled to return to the platform, amid the most demonstrative tokens of approval, in order to play it over again. The " Egmont" overture, mag nificently executed, brought the selection to a close. Crystal Palace. This week's :return of the number of visitors to this popular place of resort makes up a grand total of upwards of twenty millions during the eleven years and a-half the Palace has been open to the public. These numbers are considerably in excess of those attending the three great international exhibitions—London of 1851 and 1862, and Paris of 1855. Taking the daily average, it will be found to exceed five thousand per day for the entire period the Palace has been open. The amount of indivi dual enjoyment—and, to no inconsiderable extent, general instruction—which has resulted to the pub lic from the projection and completion of the Crys tal Palace deserves notice at such a time ; and when we state that according to a moderate estimate more than three millions of money has been dis bursed by visitors to it, in admissions, refreshments, railway travelling, trading, &c., it will be seen that it has taken a steady hold on public estimation, which twenty years ago it would have been chimerical to anticipate. Great as these results undoubtedly are, there is little doubt but that they will be increased with increasing facilities of reaching tho Palace. The variety of entertainments, and the liberal policy of catering on the broadest scale for all classes, which has won for the Crystal Palace the title of the " Palace of the people'spleasures," con tinues now to tell in its favour as much as the original novelty of its construction and complete beauty told in its favour at the outset of its career. " A thing of beauty is a joy for ever" is an apt illustration of the Crystal Palace, and it is one of which all Englishmen have reason to be proud. In celebration of these large numbers, a great fete will be held at the Palace on Monday, when the illumination of the fountains and display of fireworks promise to excel all former displays, great as they have been. Particular stress is laid upon the ten thousand magnesium stars which will bedis played in the final girandole of rockets. Excursions will run from various parts, and as the fireworks will conclude before half-past six, and the Palace remain open lighted up for promenade until eight o'clock or later, there will be ample time for leisurely return. THAMES HAVEN PIER. Tho chairman and directors of the Thames Haven Com pany (Limited) and numerous invited guests proceeded from Fenchurch-street station yesterday morning by special train to Thames Haven, to inspect the works re cently completed there. The place is about a dozen miles below Gravesend, on the opposite shore, and is too insignificant in appearance to attract the attention of the excursionist sailing down the river If, however, the expectations of the Thames Haven Company are realised, it will be developed into one of the most important stations on the river. The chief object is to facilitate the transport of cattle from the con tinent to the Metropolitan Cattle-market, and this desirable end is to be achieved by landing the beasts at Thames Haven, and conveying them at once by the London, Til bury, and Southend Railway to the Islington market. The present system of landing cattle at Blackwall not only in volves risk, and often absolute loss to the ship and stock owners ; but, as recent deputations to the Home Secretary have shown, inflicts increased torture upon the poor brutes driven through the streets, and outrages the feelings of humane passers by, who are compelled to witness the cruelty of the drovers. When the advantages of Thames Haven aro better known a considerable goods and passenger traffic is also expected. Hitherto the works have been mainly confined to accommodation for cattle, and the in spection yesterday showed that it was ample and conve nient. The new pier is nearly 200 feet long, and so broad that the superficial area amounts to 7,000 feet. There are four landing-places constructed, to allow vessels to unload at any portion of the tide ; and the peculiarity of the shore, notwithstanding the comparative shortness of the pier, gives 19 feet depth at the end at low water. In connection with the landing-places are improved hoisting cranes, and tramways by which cattle or goods may be transferred from the hold of the ship to the railway waggons in a few minutes. Close to the shore a slaughter-house has been built, where 50 car cases, in caso of necessity, can be dealt with at once. Seve ral dozens of large cattle pensadjoin, each being provided with water springing from a well sunk for the purpose by the company. Seventeen acres of pasture land and some open yards complete the provision made for cattle. There are sidings communicating with the pens, enabling three trains to be loaded simultaneously. The merits of such a station as this are obvious. Instead of cargoes of cattle lying be-fogged off the marshes higlier up the river for hours, and sometimes days together, they can be taken direct per rail from Thames Haven to the market in an hour and a half. The portion of the voyage most fatal to cattle, and destructive to shipowners, will thus be avoided. From this now pier passengers and goods can be conveyed to Fenchurch street station in an hour. Vessels can reach Thames Haven in six hours from Boulogne and Calais, and twelve hours from Rotterdam. Both N isitors and shareholders in the concern were yesterday much pleased with the premises, and the sanguine opinion of all was that the undertaking could not fail to prove of immense advantage to the ;public, while it paid a handsome per centage to the promoters. A SHILLING CHRISTMAS ANNUAL, edited by Edmund Routledge, is about to be issued by Messrs. George Routledge and Sons, which will contain original Christmas stories, by Mrs. Henry Wood, the author of " East Lynne," Miss Amelia B. Edwards, Andrew Halliday,Thomas Miller, George Manville Fenn, Arthur Sketchley, Charles H. Ross, an original Christmas play by Stirling Coyne, and a new Burlesque, by F. C. Burnand, together with comical illus trations by William Brunton, and a variety of Christmas jokes and puzzles. Mrs. Henry Wood, the author of "East Lynne," is writing a story of school life for Rout ledge's Magazine for Boys, entitled " The Orvill College Boys." MR. ISAAC Burr, Q.C.—A gentleman in Dublin who is personally known to us, and of whose intimate and confidential relations with Mr. Butt, Q.C., we have the clearest evidence, writes to us "to give the most unquali fied contradiction to the rumours as to this distinguished Irishman having changed his religious principles," and we most willingly comply with his request that the widest publicity may be given to this. contradiction, which we have no doubt will be republished by every journal in which the rumour in question was mentioned. —Northern Whig. THE STRIKE IN THE BUILDING TRADE.—INTIMI DATION OP WORKMEN.-At the borough police-court, Not tingham, yesterday, Ja.nes Bush was charged with using threatening language for the purpose of intimidating a man named Robert Moore, in the employ of Bell and Wood, builders. On Friday night the prisoner saw the prosecutor in the market place and entered into conversation with him. Eight or nine other men came up, and the prisoner asked Moore to go with them to their lodge house, where the society is kept ; prosecutor declined to go. They then said they would find him money to leave the town and go to Yarmouth. He replied that he did not want their money ; what money he wanted he would work for. They then said that if he did not leave the town, they would "give it him," or "do for him," or something like that.

TORONTO, Oct. 26. The Fenian Colonel Lynch has been sentenced ;o be hung. THE CANDIAN INSURRECTIOff , ALEXANDRIA, Oct. 25. News received here from Greek sources states that a great battle took place in Candia, on the 17th inst., between the Cretans, who numbered 20,000 men, and the combined Turkish and Egyptian troops, 30,000 strong. The latter are stated to have been repulsed and Ismail Paella wounded. • ATHENS, October 18, 186 G. The latest intelligence from Candia, extending to the 15th, gives the following details of the expe dition recently undertaken by Mustapha Pasha against th 3 insurgents. The Turkish leaders, obeying the orders sent from Constantinople through Djemil Pacha, aide de-camp to the Sultan, left Canea upon the 9th of October with 18 battalions of infantry, a squadron of cavalry, a battery of artillery, and about 3,000 irregular troops, in all from 16,000 to 18,000 men. These troops marched towards the White Mountains, where several insurgent corps and the chief members of the Cretan General Assembly were posted. That same evening the Turkish army halted at the village of Skine, where they passed the night. Next day they burnt the village of Lakki, meeting no resistance. Upon the 11th, having plundered and burnt the village of Mouskla, they marched against another village, Sourva, defended by about 500 insurgents. They made four ineffectual at , tempts to carry the place, and ultimately withdrew, it is said, with heavy loss. They subsequently burnt the hamlet of Therisso. All these places are at the foot of the White Mountains. Upon the 12th some 2,000 Greeks attacked the Turkish force, and, after a battle lasting through that day and the next, are said to have forced the latter to withdraw to the foot of the Kermia Moun tains, forming the lowest of the chain, and the nearest to Canea. This retrograde movement is attributed by the Turkish authorities to a failure in provisions. At 10 in the evening of the 14th a body of 160 Turks, unaware of the remainder of the army hav ing retreated, marched towards Therisso, hoping there to rejoin their comrades. The insurgents sur prised this detachment in a ravine, and are reported to have cut them off to a man. Several acts of reprisal are stated to have been effected by the Turks. Two churches have been plundered in the suburb of Canea, where the Ameri can and Russian consulates are situated. A similar fate has overtaken the church in the village of Galata. An unarmed Cretan, named Cokalakis, returning to his village with his family, furnished with a safe-conduct from the Governor, was killed by the Turks, together with his wife, his sister-in law, a little girl aged four, and another person who accompanied them. An Hellenic subject, named Dressanan, was also slain at the village of Psilopyrgos. The Greek Consul at Canea has in formed his Government that the lives of King George's subjects arc in greater danger than ever, and that even the Greek consuls themselves are not safe. Dates from the department of lleracleum are also to the 15th inst. Upon the sth a corps consisting of 4,000 native Mussulrnans, three battalions of Turkish infantry, and two battalions of Egyptian foot marched against the district of Messara. Upon the 10th they encountered about 300 insurgents at Tergeri, and of ter having vainly essayed to carry the position, retreated with a loss of five killed and two wounded. Upon the 11th the Turkish forces divided into two corps. One of them burnt and plundered without resistance the villages of Coussi, Pompia, Petrokephalon, and Chibaki ; the other marched upon Zaro, Camares, and Virizia, where it encountered the insurgents. The engagement began at 11 in the forenoon, and lasted till 5 o'clock p.m., the Turks again ',retreating and falling back upon the village of Arga-Varvara. They are said to have lost 20 killed and numerous wounded. The following day, the 12th, the irregulars returned dispirited to the fort of lleracleum ; acts of vengeance are also reported from this depart ment. The Turks having surprised in the village of Zaro three old women, one of whom had a son com pletely paralysed, killed the latter before his mother's eyes. The poor woman is said to have become insane. The insurgents are stated to be well supplied with food and munitions, as the Turkish blockade does not prevent the Greek sailors from snaking frequent voyages to convey succour to the Cretans. AMERICA, • SOUTHAMPTON, OCt. 27. The Hamburg and American Company% steam ship Teutonia, from New York on the 13th inst., has arrived here with 60 passengers for Havre and Hamburg, $50,000 in specie for England, and $15,000 in specie for France. On the 25th ult. she spoke the Norwegian ship Sophie, and on the 26th the steamer Borussia. THE BOMBAY MAILS. SOUTHAMPTON, Saturday Morning. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's screw steamer Pera, Captain G. J. Babot, has arrived with these mails, 59 passengers, £2,800 in specie, three boxes of shawls, and sundries. Among the passengers are Assistant Corn. General Barlee, from China; Colonel Jones, R.E., and family, from Bombay ; Capt. Hoseason, R.N., superintendent of the port, and Mr. Roberts, Master H.M.S. Assurance, from Malta ; the Lord Bishop of Gibraltar, &c. The Pera left Alexandria on the 14th, Malta the 18th, and Gibraltar the 22d, and has bad generally fine weather, but had very strong N.W. gales in the Bay of Bismy. On the 23d, off the Burlings, the Pera spoke the Company's steamer China, with the outward Mails of the 26th. Her Majesty's ships Assurance and Hibernia were at Malta, and the Redpole and Skylark at Gibraltar. FRANCE. The list of subscriptions for the sufferers by the late inundations has only reached £50,000 for Paris, although the Illoniteur publishes four or five columns of subscribers per diem. A closely printed column represents about £6O. _ _ It is not the Credit Foncier, but one of the lead ing shareholders in the Credit Mobilier, who has purchased the Patric. The Council of State has been instructed to frame a bill for the reorganisa tion of the army. The Sulut Public of Lyons accounts for the dis tress which now exists in that city by showing that the exports in damasked silk have fallen within a space of ten years from 74,000,000 francs to 11,000,000 francs, and it is expected that this year there will be another fall of 4,000,000 francs. The manufacturers have turned their attention to the making of plain silks to meet the requirements of fashion, but other looms besides those of Lyons can supply this article. The France of the night before last mentions the arrival of a letter from the Emperor Maxi milian to an important political peronage in Paris, in which his Majesty repeats his firm resolution not to abandon the post to which the suffrages of the Mexican people have called him. He is convinced that by limiting the area of his dominions to the country round Mexico he can re sist the attacks of the various parties, which already quarrel among themselves for the power they have not yet in their hands. Most of the Paris papers of Monday night, in printing a telegram announcing that the Austrian man-of-war Elizabeth has been ordered to Mexico, follow it by a paragraph explain ing that the sad news of the Empress's illness will probably cause a change in the Emperor's view of his duty. The hulependance I3clge announces that General Castelnau has received instructions to urge the necessity of abdicating, and goes so far as to predict that the Elizabeth will bring the Emperor to Europe. At Lyons on Saturday MM. Labauine and Thomain, the printer and director of the Journal de Guignol, a satirical publication issued in that city, were charged : 1, with having treated questions of political and social economy ; 2, with having ex cited the citizens to the hatred of the Emperor's Government ; 3, with having endeavoured to dis turb the public peace, and provoke discord among the population. The defendants were acquitted on the first two counts, and a verdict of guilty having been given on the third, Labaume was condemned to six months' imprisonment and 2,000 f. fine, and Thomain to a week of the same punishment and a penalty of 100 f. _ _ - BOURSE, Oct. 26, Two o'clock.—Yesterday's up ward movement has continued.

On Wednesday evening Sir Daniel Gooch, Bart., M.P., presided at a meeting to distribute the prizes in connection with the Society of Arts' examination of the members of the classes at the New Swindon Mechanics' Institute, an institution which was erected for the benefit of the many hundreds of per sons employed at the Great Western Company's locomotive works at Swindon. The hon. baronet having alluded to his early connection with the In stitute as one of its promoters, said : —" I can look back upon many faces as I walk through the estab lishment—l see many faces that were some years ago youthful who were boys; many that com menced life with me now greyheaded, and I deeply regret that many have left us. To those young lads who are coming up, I will tell something of my young life. I began with little better prospects than they. I remember quite well when I left my parents' roof my dear old mother's last words—l was then going under Robert Stephenson, to v.•ork as many of you work, from six of the morning until six at night- Always keep in mind, my dear Dan, that you should look forward to being some day manager of that concern.' These words have remained with me through life. I was to look forward to becoming equal in authority with those above me ; to consider that I was as much entitled to such a position, if I could earn it, as anybody else. Those words never left me, and I would earnestly ask those young lads who are now rising and beginning their life, not to look at the present, not to think that their present position is a final position, but that they should feel it is within the power, in this free country, of any boy to rise to any position he will fix his mind upon. If they don't rise to such a position as they hope for, they will gain something equally valuable —they will gain the respect and esteem of all those about them. There is another motto of mine—it is one I took from old Sunderland bridge. I was in love at the time. I thought the chances were against me, I did not see how I was to gain my object; and I found these words in large letters on that bridge— ' Nil Desperandurn."fhose words have aided me through life. 'N it desperandum.' If you earnestly set your mind upon an object—an honest one-1 don't believe that you will fall far short of its attainment. Stick to it, never give it up ; never say die." Birmingham Free Libraries. Yesterday, the Mayor of Birmingham (Mr. Edwin Yates) laid the foundation -stone of a third district free library in connection with that system some years since established in that town. His worship also opened with ceremony " The Reference Library." This forms the upper room of the Central Free Library, erected under the superintendence of Messrs. Martin and Chamberlain, architects, Bir mingham, at a cost of £13,000. It is approached by a broad and handsome stone staircase, at the upper landing of which folding doors give access to a semicircular room, of about 60 feet by 50, lighted from the roof and divided by columns into " bays," in which are arranged the " presses" for the books. Midway around the room is an ornamental iron gallery, affording access to the upper tiers of shelves. The whole of the fittings are of oak, and both as regards these and the architectural embellishments, the room is one of the handsomest in the provinces, doing much eredit, indeed, both to the corporation and the architects. Besides the large room, there are various similar apartments, one of which is set aside as a Shakespeare Memorial Library, in which will be arranged all the edition (English and foreign) of the poet's works, together with all the commen taries and other illustrative works to which they have given rise. The general reference library contains 15,000 volumes, purchased at a total cost of £5,000. These have been selected on the principle of fairly representing all the principal departments of litera ture—in theology, philosophy, history, poetry, natural history, science, and art. The selection has been made with great care ; none but the best works in each department have been purchased ; and in numerous instances the committee have not hesi tated to buy rare and valuable works, the element of cost having been subordinated to those of fitness and completeness. Owing to the circum stances that the whole of the books have been pur chased specially for the library, and this work having been undertaken by persons peculiarly qualified, it has been possible to obtain a collection which for variety, quality, and fulness in its several depart ments cannot easily be matched elsewhere. The credit of this result is mainly due to the zealous and intelligent labours of the successive chairmen of the committee, and especially those of Mr. Samuel Tim mins, a member of the committee, and the editor of the recently published reports on " The Midland Hardware District." At the inauguration ceremonial a most admirable address was delivered by Mr. G. Dawson, M.A. Subsequently the Mayor entertained 150 gentlemen at an elegant entertainment at the Queen's Hotel. Amongst those present were Mr. Davenport Bromley, M.P. ; the Hon. Chandos Leigh, the lion. and Rev. G. M. Yorke, the Ven. Archdeacon Sandford, the Rev. W. G-over, Princi pal of the Saltley Training College ; the Rev. C. Evans, Head Master of King Edward's School, Bir mingham, &c. COTrt BEE MAJESTY. BALIIEORAL, OCt. 25.
