The Reform Demonstration. Last evening a numerously attended meeting of trades delegates was held at the Sussex Hotel, Bouverie-street—Mr. G. Potter in the chair—for the purpose of arranging the details of the proposed demonstration, but more especially to consider the position in which the organising committee and sec retary are placed by the refusal of the solicitors of Mr. Simpson, the leaseholder of Ashburnham grounds, to allow that place to be used for the pur pose intended. The chairman said, with regard to the correspondence which had appeared in reference to Ashburnham-grounds, he had no hesitation in expressing his belief that the parties were moved by those who were determined to throw every obstacle in the way of the trades and of reform. They had been threatened with an injunction from the Vice- Chancellor in the event of their determin ing to hold the demonstration in Ashburnham grounds, and in reply they had stated their intention of adopting one of two courses—namely, to hold the proposed meeting, or to claim indemnification for what they bad expended in the making of prelimi nary arrangements. As the committee could not get Ashburnham-grounds except by force, they had en deavoured to find a suitable place for the holding of the demonstration. They bad been making in quiries respecting Lord's Cricket-ground, and had sent a telegram to the chief person connected with that place, but who, instead of replying to them, sent back their telegram, thus putting them to an expense of nine shillings. They had applied for Kennington-oval, but the proprietor told them be would lose his lease by giving it to them. They had been unsuccessful in an application for the use of Vincent-square, Westminster, in consequence of the absence of the Dean. The Agricultural hall was en gaged by the Smithfield Cattle Club Committee, and they could not get a definite answer respecting the Crystal Palace until after a special meeting of the directors. The Secretary (Mr. Hartwell) stated that, with a view to obviate the difficulties which would surround the committee in the event of their failing to And a private place for the holding of the demonstration, he had that day written a letter to Lord John Manners, to the effect that the eommittee, having perceived that he had given per mission to the trades of Edinburgh to meet in the Queen's Park, asked his lordship to allow the trades of London to meet in Hyde-park or the Green park, and requesting him to receive a deputation on the subject. Mr. Hartwell added that he had requested the Chief Commissioner of Works to send an immediate reply in order that the com mittee might be able to take action at that meet ing, and Lord John Manners sent a reply by re turn of post stating his readiness to receive the deputation as requested. The secretary further reported that an enclosed place in the vicinity of Brompton would in all probability be procured for the demonstration. A resolution expressing the determination of the delegates to retain Ashburnham-grounds until another place had been found was unanimously adopted. The secretary ' stated that from 200 to 300 mounted farriers would head the procession, and the branches of the Reform League had offered to bring up the rear. A ballot was then taken for the order of the trades in the procession. A resolution in favour of the insertion in the morning papers of an advertisement calling on the employers to close their places of business on the 3d December was unanimously agreed to, after which the proceedings terminated. Col. lluyshe, and comprising three batteries, pro ceeded through Sidcup and Frognal, escorted by the riding troop, commanded by Capt. Scott, and the sth and 16th brigades, under the chief command of Lieut.-Col. Gosling, together with the Royal Ma rines, commanded by Lieut.-Col. Menzies, marched by the direct through Eltham to Chislehurst. On arriving on the common there, the whole force went through a series of field movements, including the check of the advance of a supposed enemy marching on Chislehurst from the direction of Orpington, Bickley, and Bromley. The weather was all that could be desired. The exercise and the sham fight were brought to a close at one o'clock. Miscellaneous American News. A BRANCH CABLE. It is announced, on behalf of the company own ing the Atlantic cable, that they are disgusted with the failures in the transmission of their despatches to this country, in consequence of the frequent breaking down of the overland line in Newfound land. These disasters might be occasionally borne with some patience, but they seem to be of weekly, if not of semi-weekly, occurrence. Whether the winds do the damage, or whether Newfoundlanders interfere with the telegraph wires for sinister pur poses, is immaterial. It is demonstrated that the ocean cable company loses much money by the continual disasters which happen in Newfoundland. It has, therefore, determined to lay a submarine cable from Trinity Bay to Halifax. This will be a wise arrangement, and, although a costly one, will be found in the end to "pay." We presume that no attempt will be made to connect the branch line with the cable, but that the despatches will be first received at Heart's Content and then be rewritten. It is even said that there is an intention of con tinuing this submarine line to Boston. But of that it will not be imprudent to express considerable doubt.— Philadelphia Inquirer. Naval Intelligence. Although only a very few weeks have elapsed since the first piece of iron for the keel of the turret ship Monarch, 6, 1,100 horse power, was lowered into the dock at Chatham, in which she is building, so rapidly is the construction of the vessel being urged forward that nearly all her continuous wrought-iron frames, with the exception of a few of those at the stem and stern, are in place, while up to the discontinuance of work yesterday evening the whole of the bottom plates had been fixed to the frames, and the work of fixing the recess plates com menced. The difficult operation of fixing the pro jecting wrought-iron stein for the Monarch was completed yesterday without accident. The stem on leaving the smithery, where it was forged, weighed 17 tons, and was the largest forging ever previously completed at Chatham dockyard. On its removal to the factory the slotting, planing, boring, and polish ing processes it was required to undergo occupied some weeks, the shape of the stem-piece, which ex actly resembles the lower portion of the letter S, rendering these operations extremely difficult. Hitherto it has been found impossible to adopt the ord nan planing machines for curvilinear planing, but at length this problem has been solved by Mr. Middleton, tht. head of the machinery department in Chatham dockyLrd, who has succeeded in planing the whole of the curves and angular surfaces of the iron stem-piece for the Monarch with no other ap pliances than common planing machines. Like the other iron ships built from the designs of the pre sent Chief Constructor of the wavy, the Monarch is being constructed on the cellular double-bottom principle, first introduced into the navy with so much success in the Bellerophon. Under this system of construction, while the strength and rigidity of the vessel are enormously increased, the chances of any calamity occurring to her from an injury to her bottom—which in iron vessels b u il t on the ordinary principle generally proves fatal --if not absolutely renderedimpossible, are reduced to a minimum. The Monarch will be the first ship combining the turret and the broadside principles in the same vessel, and consequently it is to her central battery, in which will be mounted her heavy broadside guns, with her turrets above, that the greatest amount of prote c tion will be required. 'W hile the armour- plating cover ing the whole of her midship battery will be seven inches in thickness —an inch thicker than the B e l_ leroplion's armour, which latter vessel is at present the most heavily armoured ship in the British na vy _ the armour upon her turrets will be nearly, if not quite, one foot in thickness, while space will be ob tained for working two 600-pounder guns, simul taneously, in each turret. What in effect will be a third turret will be erected at the bow, consisting of an armour-plated traverse, or battery, rising from the water-lines to a height of eight feet above the upper deck, and giving protection to the large chase gun to be carried at the bow. It is a noticeable feature in the construction of the Monarch that the Admiralty have at length wisely adopted the system pursued by private firms, by permitting the drillers and rivetters employed on that vessel to NI ork by piece -work, by which not only is the greater eco nomy of labour obtained, but the workmen them selves are satisfied. The screw gunboat Sepoy, 2, GO horse power, ten der to the Dauntless, 31, 580 horse power, Capt. E. P. B. von Donop, coastguard ship in the Humber, having completed her repairs and refit at Chatham, received orders yesterday to rejoin the Dauntless. screw steamer Rodney, 78, 2,770 tons, 500 horse power (unarmoured), is getting well forward in the steam basin, the intention of sending her to D evonport to be fitted having been abandoned. She is expected to be ready early in the ensuing year for commission, her station being a flagship of the China squadron, relieving the Princess Royal, 73, 400 horse power, on the return of the latter to England, in the ensuing 7, 2o spring. The Reindeer,o horse power, Commander E. dares, was taken alongside the coal depot, near Illacketakes, in the Medway,yesterday, for the purpose of filling up with coals. The attention of th e Horse Guards authorities, it appears, has been called to the great inexpediency of removing the Ist Brigade Royal Artillery from Gibraltar to Halifax. On account of the lateness of the season, and t he g r eat contrast in the c li ma tes, the health of the men would undoultery suffer severely, the winter having already set in with great severity in Halifax. The greater part of the: troops at Woolwich were paraded on Wednesday morning for a general " march out." The different portions of the force were ordered to leave the garrison and march by several routes, so as to arrive at Chislehurst by 11 n.m. The B brigade Royal Artillery, commanded by Col. D'Aguilar, C. 8., and consisting of cue bat tery, commanded by Capt. Saunders, marched out by Mottinghatu. The C brigade, in command of THE PARIS EXPOSITION OF 1867. It is announced that the space allotted to the United States, in the French Exhibition in 1867, is filled, and that no more applications by would-be exhibitors will be received. It was thought at one time that this country would make a poor show in the Exposition, and very little interest seemed to be taken in the matter. It is gratifying to know that we will be properly represented upon an occa sion that will engross much of the attention of mankind, and if in any department of art or in dustry full justice is not done to the ingenuity and skill of our country those who have neglected the opportunity will be alone to blame. The French Exhibition will be a point of interest and attention to the whole world, and the number of visitors to it will be enormous. The display will be interesting as a study of the means of comfort which human ingenuity have devised, for everything will be shown there which can minister to the wants, necessities, and elegances of civilisation. —Philadelphia In quirer. JUSTICE AND GENEROSITY THE TRUE ULTIMATUM. Secretary Browning, in his recent letter, thinks he makes a strong point against the Republican Congressmen by attempting to show that what they really aim at is negro suffrage, and that they are willing to restore " red-handed rebels" to power, if they can at the same time make voters of the negroes. If this were true it would be no discredit to Congress, but quite the contrary. Universal suffrage is the only solution of our present diffi culties that can give permanent peace to the coun try. And this conviction is growing rapidly upon the people. It seems impossible that intelligent men in the South should not themselves see it, and it can not be doubted that the progress of events will soon force the conviction upon them. It was a lack of courage rather than conviction that prevented Congress from proposing it in an amendment to the Constitution, as the condition of final settlement, and it could not have been more obnoxious to the people of the South than the amendment offered them. That Congress had as complete a right to make equal suffrage the condition as equal repre sentation is not to be disputed. Its right to do either comes not from the Constitution, but the power of the victor to dictate terms to the vanquished. It was the manifest lack of Constitutional right which prevented the passage of the bill providing for readmission to representation upon the adoption of the amendment. Congress expressed its purpose in the prompt admission cf Tennessee, but it did not put it into the form of law, because it had no right so to do. It could have made the same implied offer of course, through an amendment for equal suffrage and a law for universal amnesty. The border State Unionists, who two years ago were nearly unanimous, and many of them very bitter against negro suffrage, are learning wisdom by hard experience. The Louisiana Unionists, who refused to give their freedmen the suffrage when they had the power to do it and President Lincoln was urging it upon them, now clamorously demand that Congress shall do for them what they refused to do for themselves. The experiment of keeping power by disfranchising white voters has entirely failed in their case, and the machinery of the State and local governments has passed almost wholly into the hands of their opponents. The same thing has occurred in Virginia, and is likely to happen in Tennessee, in spite of every appliance, fair and foul, used by Governor Brownlow, and his small following to keep the power in their own hands. Even in Missouri, where the real Unionists have an honest majority, the rule of exclusion has been made so rigid that it reacts against them. Many of the more liberal Unionists are themselves dis gusted, and refuse to submit to the inquisition of the registration law, while the more unscrupulous of the opposition swear to anything that is offered them, and so many of them will get a chance to vote in spite of the law. They have a process of expurgation by which names are stricken off the registers w h enever any b ody o bj ects to them, an d these names being merely posted at the registrar's office, the probability is that in most cases the nottpheersmonosnwaigllain,but the learn the fact in time to swear process itself can scarcely fail to be a means of in orjustice among voters, and so will tend to r en d er st i ll d n is w fr i a s n e ch en is o e u m g e h n t ;o If thee odious issouri Unionists had the whole system put eq ua l suffrage into their Al b of ee n ew constitution they might have • dispensed with the system of disfranchisem en t and been stronger than they are now; in fact might have held the State with the utmost secu r it y , i nstead of beinc, anxious and alarmed as they now a re, fearing that they may be obliged to fight to keep rebel voters from the polls. The same may be said of Maryland. In each of these five States the real Unionists would have been in secure possession of power to-day if they had enfran c hised the negroes inst ea d of dis en, In Louisiana our f r i ends franchising white have conic to understand this too late, and are de manding what is now impossible, the destruction of the State Government they themselves created, that they may have a chance to build again on broader and better principles. In Missouri, Mary land, and Tennessee, it is not yet too late to cor rect the great error. If the proposed amendment to the constitution is not accepted by the unrepresented States, Con gress will once more have the opportunity • to put reconstruction upon a sounder basis. It may then make equal suffrage and universal amnesty the conditions of full restoration of the Union. This will leave the people of the South, without distinction of race or colour, to decido for them selves whether they will be ruled by the men who led them into rebAlion with all its unavailing sacrifices and sorrows, or whether they will elect men who are in sympathy with the new order of things. This would cause a warm political contest at the South, but it would be a healthy one, and its right determination at last cannot be doubted. As things now stand the controversy is still with the North. Establish the natural and normal relations, and the S ou th must wor k out i ts own salvat i on, and fight its own battles at home. But Congress must propose equal suffrage as a national measure, not as a speciality for the South,and must put it in a form to involve the least possible i t f n er er,mce with State rights. Is there anything better than the original proposition of The Republ ican—.equal suffrage on the basis of intelligence in Congress:Qua' and Pres i- THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVEMNG, NOVEMBER 24, 1866. dential elections. This would secure uniformity and equality in national elections, while it would leave the States free to establish their own law of suffrage in local elections. Of course the national system would very soon rule in State elections, but it would do so without doubtful inter ference of the General Government with the rights of the States. If the whole matter is to revert to Congress for revision, as now seems likely, let us have the controversy settled upon first principles, and so settled forever. Such a settlement will: commend itself to the general judgment, and at the same time be less offensive to sectional pride and prejudice than any half-way measures.— Springfield Republican. York the sooner it is wiped out the better. Orga nised bands of thieves, with their arms deep in the public plunder, were before him. While one may pardon the poor hirelings who do their master's bidding, we will hold the leader guilty. He charged the scene upon Mayor Hoffman, who would follow Governor Seymour out of office. The men who are now howling were in 1863 burning and hanging negroes. You poor fools, he continued, I have faced your superiors in Baltimore and New Orleans. I have hung your betters. If you do not behave your selves I'll have the pleasure to see you hung. Do you think lam going to flinch ? Do you think you are the equal of the negro ? You are not to over power free speech and free thought. Men of the Five Points ! thieves and frequenters of the tombs ! I declare you are not worthy of the elective fran chise. lie said the crowd was composed of the paid hirelings of the Democratic party, who are paid so much a week to suppress free speech. No higher spectacle could be presented why Governor Fenton should be elected than this. If there was anything that could be urged in favour of a despotism, and against the rule of the minority by the majority, it was such a scene as that before him. It would take but a few demonstrations of a like character to make the great Republican party become disgusted with the free elective franchise. General Butler was then asked to go on and give the ruffians what they de served. He replied : "No, no, fellow-citizens, I will not play the blackguard ; I am not a president or a vice-president, and cannot go into any dis cussion with an angry crowd." The crowd con fronting General Butler was composed of the most villanous-looking roughs of the Five Points. As the General was about to take his seat, an apple was thrown, which hit him, and he coolly took it up and ate it. The roughs succeeded in preventing him from making his intended speech, but the courage with which he faced them and the vigour with which he denounced them were quite as effective as any speech. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. (From our New York Correspondent.) NEW YORK, Nov. 10. I forward you Secretary 3/Mulloch's statement of the Public Debt, ending 31st October, which is generally con sidered excellent in almost every respect. The debt is re duced by $22,026,935, and it shows that we are gradually returning to specie payments. Nine millions of green backs have been withdrawn, and it is expected that four millions will be taken out of circulation every. month. Nearly all the short-time obligations have been extin guished, and the compound interest notes are being drawn in, and this is being done without the extra issue of fifty millions in greenbacks authorised by Congress for the purpose. Some twenty millions also of 7-30's have been converted during the month into 5-20's. Secretary M'Culloch makes this statement of the Public Debt on the Ist of November:— Debt bearing Coin Interest. Five percent. Bonds $198,091,350.00 Six per cent bonds of 1867-68 Six per cent. bonds of 1881 283,739,750.00 Six per cent 5-20 Bonds 823,944,000.00 Navy Pension Fund Total Debt bearing Currency Interest Six per cent.

The New Five-Twenties not long since put on the market at 108 are now at 110. It should be remem bered by those who wish to convert Seven-Thirties of the first series into Five-Twenties that the interest on the former is credited from August 15th, 1866, to date of con version at 7 3-10ths per cent., and that the interest on the Fire-Twenties is charged from July Ist, 1866, to the date of conversion at 6 per cent., tho difference in interest being received in currency. The excitement created by the elections early in the week had an influence in finan cial affairs. There is now, however, a reaction. Already the money market in New York is stiffening under an active demand. Six per cent. is the usual rate for loans, though they can be obtained on Government Securities at 5 per cent. At Boston money continues very plentiful ; the supply being greatly in excess of the demand, and rates are no higher than in New York. At Chicago also the market is easier, while at Cincinnati the demand is active, though the rates are comparatively not high. In view of the in creasing demand for money in Now York speculators are acting with caution. The long-predicted rise has not yet taken place, and purchasers now begin to doubt the prophecies of the " bulls." There can bo no doubt, how ever, that the market is becoming sounder as we gradually withdraw the inflated currency. it is not to be expected that this can be accomplished without some suffering, and those who continue to operate in the face of the natural return which is surely coming to specie payments must lose considerably. Gold is quiet, and may be quoted at about 147. The exports of specie are increasing, and amounted to $317,445 last week. The imports have fallen off, only $lOO,OOO having ar rived in the same period. The gold disbursements of the Treasury department to cash the November coupons have had little perceptible effect upon the market. Business is generally dull, in contrast with the activity with which the full trade opened. The imports at New York for the week and year are $3,947,056 and $259,360,266, against $5,023,370 and $166,247,957 ; and the exports, exclusive of specie, $3,093,780 and $ 172 ,462,016, against $6,127,156 and $145,527,332.- -Foreign exchange is quiet at 109 i to 109 j. The produce markets have fluctuated consi derably, and the strong upward movement in corn and Wheat has ceased, for the moment, at least. Cotton re mains quiet at 38c. to 40c., and no prospect of immediate advance. The railroads earned less in October than was expected of them, but several make good exhibits, as fol lows :—Toledo, Wabash, and Western, $436,065, an in crease of $60,531 from last year; Michigan Central, $493,640, increase $2,946; Milwaukee and St. Paul, $416,138, increase $20,559. Other roads show a falling off; Milwaukee and Prairie du Chien, $257,471, decrease $53,124 ; Marietta and Cincinnati, $39,568, decrease $464. The paper money inflation in Canada is going on with rapidity. There are already nearly $1,750,0(0 of pro vincial notes in circulation. (Glenn and Co.'s 11 7 eWy Circular.) LONDON, NOT. 23. The London Market for American Securities has been fairly active during the past week. Some investors are holding back further orders till Congress meets, and the differences between the President and that body are ad justed, but on the whole prices have been well sustained, 5.20's close to-night at 701 to 70k. Erie Shares 50 to 50i, and Illinois Central 78i to 78k, a rise of near 2 per cent. en the week. Atlantic and Great Western Consolidated Bonds are also higher, viz., 43 to 41, but the Certificates of Debenture are 2 per cent. lower, and close at 58 and GO. Out advises from Now York are by mail to November 10th. Gold was steadily declining under the heavy load recently thrown upon the market by investors in 5.20 Bonds, who drew from the Sub-Treasury over $88,000,000 gold interest during the first three days of the present month. Though specie payments have not been resumed in America, it is a noteworthy fact that never before was there as much gold and silver in the country, nor so much being produced from American mines. More the war the New York banks and United States Sub-Treasury's average specie balances were from $25,000,000 to $35,000,000, they are now over $100,000,000; and the receipts of gold at Now York from California since January Ist, 1866, have been just three times as large as they were same time last year, which augurs well for the rich ness of the mines on the Pacific Slope, and for the early resumption of specie payments throughout the United States. Money was easy, and could be had at 4 per cent. on Government Securities. Railway shares rather lower, and Mining Stocks buoyant. A Rome, Ga., paper makes the following announcement of railroad consolidation :—" On the sth ultimo, in this city, the final steps in the consolidaton of the Alabama and Tennessee River Railroad, Georgia and Alabama Rail road, and the Dalton and Jacksonville Railroad Companies were perfected, and the consolidated companies placed under the control and direction of the Alabama and Ten nessee River Railroad Company, with General Joseph E. Johnston president. (From L. P. Morton and Co.'s Circular.) NEW YORK, Nov. 10. The money market has worked with less ease during the past week, owing to the increased demand for cur rency from the West and South. Demand loans range at 5 to 6 per cent., with a strong tendency toward the latter as the prevailing rate. Discounts are rather more active at 6 to 7 per cent. for prime bills. Government securities have shown less activity, but prices have ruled steady at about our latest quotations. Five-Twenties of 1882 have ranged at 1101 1 to 1101, and close steady at 1101. The Consolidated Five-Twenty Loan has been in active demand from investors, the price ranging at 110 to 1101, which, considering that the bonds bear over four months' interest, is about per cent. below the quotations for other Five-Twenties than the issue of 1862. The official statement of the Public Debt, dated No vember Ist, shows a reduction in the indebtedness of the Government, during October, of $22,026,936, following a decrease in the preceding month, of $22,346,227. Within the five months ending October 31, 1866, the aggregate of the Debt has been diminished $118,978,362 ; while, for the last seven months, the reduction amounts to $154,336,511, or nearly six per cont. of the whole debt of the country. During the month the Government has bought up $2,289,850 of the sixes of 1867 and 1868, at 92 in gold, for the former issue, and 90 for the latter. Within the same period $25,782,750 of the Consolidated Five- Twenties have been issued in exchange for short obliga tions ; and $8,969,517 of United States' Notes (" green backs ") have been destroyed. Railroad Stocks have been irregular, owing to the in terruption of speculation by the change in the money market. Erie has fluctuated, under active speculative ope rations, between 811 and 861, and closes at 811 to 85. Illinois Central has ranged at 1211 to 1251 with diminished transactions, and closes at 1241. State Stocks have been quiet, excepting Missouri 6's, which, under an active speculative movement, have ad vanced from 864, our latest quotation, to 934, closing at 894. Tennessee 6's close at 95 ; North Carolina G's, 801 ; and Virginia 6's, 61. The speculation in gold has very much subsided, and the premium has ruled steady at near the closing figure o our last advices. Yesterday the price closed at 1461 to 146 i. Foreign Exchange has been heavy throughout the week, owing to the supply of bills having proved unexpectedly largo, but with a moderate demand. Southern Cotton bills are coming into the market more freely. Bankers' 60 days' Sterling close at 109 to 109} ; 3 days do., 110 to 110 f. Bankers' bills on Paris, 60 days, 5.16} to 5.15 ; 3 days, 5.13/ to 5.121. A marked dullness has been developed in tho Cotton market. Manufacturers are accumulating stocks of goods; and, in order to obviate a severe decline in prices, are cur tailing their production. The effect has been to produce a decline of 2 to 21 cents in quotations, notwithstanding the steadiness of the Liverpool market. Middling Uplands closes at 361 to 37 cents. FOREIGN QUOTATIONS.

The advices from New York, by the "China" reach to the 7th inst. Much activity continued to prevail in the Stock Market, and on considerable demand both on home investing account and for shipment to Europe the price of Government securities was well maintained. In Rail road Shares there was a large business at fluctuating quo tations, but on the week we have to note a decline on most descriptions. Railroad Mortgages were firmly held, and any offering found ready purchasers. For money there was increased demand, and an advance in the rate of interest of quite one per cent. was demanded. Gold, after touching 148, had fallen to 1461-, with every appearance of a further move downward. Since our last we have .had a very steady market in London for American Government Securities. There has been a free exchange of United States 5-20 Bonds of the 1862 issue, for those of 1865, at a difference of from 1 to 1 per cent., so much so, that recent importations of the latter issue appear to be pretty well absorbed. The Bonds of the earlier date close at about last week's quotations, viz., 701 to 1, but the later issue at 691 to 1, show an improvement of quite a half per cent. Illinois Central Shares, at 78/ to 79, are nearly $1 higher, but Erie exhibit a fall of $l, being last quoted 50 to 50/. Atlantic and Great Western Debentures have declined to 59 to 60, but the Consolidated Bonds havo advanced 3 per cent., leaving off 43 to 43k.

REPUBLICAN VICTORIES AND GAINS. Twelve States held State and Congressional elec tions on Tuesday, and the result, as was expected, shows that the Republican supremacy is still un broken, while "my policy" has received even a severer rebuke than by the elections in October. In Massachusetts, New York, Delaware, Michigan, and Kansas only were governors elected, and the Republican candidates were carried in by increased majorities in all of them except Delaware, where the Democrats still remain in power contrary to the hopes and expectations of the Republicans, who, in the person of James Riddle, had up one of their most popular men as a governatorial candidate. In Massachusetts the Governor vote will reach 130,000 against less than 100,000 last year, and Governor Bullock has fully three votes out of every four cast. Massachusetts also elected, in addition to the entire state ticket, ten Republican Congress men, a State Legislature entirely Republican in the Senate, and with not more than a baker's dozen of Democrats in the house, and the entire Republican ticket for local and county officers. New York re-elected Governor Fenton by a majority of from 5,000 to 10,000, notwithstanding the immense ma jorities cast against him in New York and Brooklyn. In these cities the Democrats also gained several Congressmen, Bernando Wood, and Morrissey, the gambler and prize fighter, among them ; but as the Republican made several gains in the country districts, the Congressional delegation will stand the same as at present, 20 Republicans to 11 Demo crats. New Jersey elected a Republican Legislature, thus securing a Radical United States Senator iu place of the dead Copperhead Senator Wright, and the Republicans get three out of the five Congress men, a gain of one. Delaware, besides electing Gove Saulsbury, Governor, by a majority of 1,000, returns Jas. A. Nicholson, Democrat, to Congress. In Maryland, though the Republicans ruled the election machinery in Baltimore and all over the State, Governor Swann's new police commissioners having been arrested and put in gaol, whence even a writ of habeas corpus failed to bring them till after the election, the Democrats swept everything clean, Legislature, members of Congress, and all, showing great and unexpected gains, with still greater losses for the Republicans, since the last election. From the West, however, the reports are " splendid." The Republicans gain largely in Michigan, Illinois, and Missouri, and nearly sweep the board in Kansas, Wisconsin, and Minnesota, while the new State of Nevada brings up the rear by electing Delos K. Ashley, Republican, to Con gress, with a Legislature of the same stripe, that will send a Republican to the United States Senate. Exactly how the choice for members of Congress stands in all the 91 districts where elec tions were held on Tuesday, it is impossible to say, but probably the Democrats have made a gain of two, and get 26 in all. One hundred and fifty-one members of the new House of Representatives are now chosen, of which the Republicans have 115 and the Democrats 36, showing that the parties in the next Congress will be divided very nearly the same as at present. By the defection of Mary land the Republicans lose one Senator, as well as several members of the house ; but this loss is off sett by the surety of n new Republican member from New Jersey. Altogether the result of the fall elections has been grand and hopeful in the extreme. It is a great thing that the Republi cans have held their own in view of the treachery in their own ranks, and the fresh hopes and greater efforts of the Opposition in con sequence, and is altogether better than the most sanguine dared to hope for three months in consequence of the instruction and warning for both President and Congress in the voice of the people heard through the elections, as well as condemnation of the former and approval for the latter, and both will do well to heed the lesson it offers.—A second election for members of Congress in the third Ver mont district took place on Friday, and probably Worthington C. Smith, of St. Albans, was elected in place of I'ortus Baxter. The opposing candi dates were Asa 0. Aldis, of St. Albans, bolting Republican, and Waldo Brigham, of Hyde-park, Democrat.—Springfield Republican. TILE WOMEN MOVING.—The Equal Rights Asso ciation, which is the new name of the Woman's Rights Association, will hold a convention at Albany, New York, on the 20th and 21st, to " bury the woman in the citizen," and to demand suffrage for all citizens, without distinction of race or sex. The meeting is specially designed to agitate for " citizen suffrage" in this large sense, with reference to the proposed revision of the constitution of the State of New York. The venerable Quaker preacher, Mrs. Lucretia Mott, is president of the association, and Susan B. Anthony its secretary. Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Theodore Tilton, Frances D. Gage, Lucy Stone, and ether women of celebrity in reform movements, are expected to speak at the convention, and it cannot fail to be a very pleasant and entertaining affair. The ladies deserve encouragement in their effort to give us something to talk about now that the elections are over.—An American Paper. GEN. GRANT AND THE PRESIDENCY. A gentleman of this city, an intimate personal friend of General Grant's, called on him in Wash ington not long since. His purpose was to get the influence of Gen. Grant with the President in rela tion to an office in the city. Gen. Grant told him frankly that his name would be of no service to him, but an injury. lie said he had solicited very few favours of the President, and to them no favour able response was returned. He said that one day Mr. Johnson spoke with him in relation to it. He said to General Grant :—" You say that you are not a candidate for the presidency. Now promise me," said the President, " that you will not let your name be used in connection with that office, and I will grant you any favour in my power to bestow." To this Gen. Grant replied—" Mr. John son, lam not a candidate. But suppose the peo ple insist upon making me one, what can I do ? And, besides, Mrs. Grant has been recently looking at the White House, and thinks she can run that establishment quite as well as it is run now. And n you know, Mr. P res id ent, that t h ese women will do pretty much as th ey p l ease. And Mrs. Grant would decidedly object t o my giving did d y n s o u t ch un p d r e o r m st i a se n . d " The Presid en t l oo k ed as if he exactly whether this was in jest or in earnest.— New York Letter. A SET-TO OF GENERAL BUTLER AND TEE NEW YORK There was a meetinßgOiunGiis. the City Hall-park, New York, Saturday afternoon, in support of Horace Greeley as candidate for Congress in the fourth dis trict. General Wallbridge presided and made a o p w t d e db began a n such follow uch him the u l e V m h o en cra G ti e c n r . ou ß g u h t s le in r t a h t e te c m r hooting and bowling that he could not be heard. The General waxed wroth, took off his hat and coat, and persisted for half an hour in the attempt to speak, but succeeded only in expressing his just indignation in a few Butlerian sentences. Some of the words, caught by the reporters, but chiefly lost upon the crowd, are thus reported :—General Butler said it had been this spirit of misrule which brought on the terrible war. There were doubtless within the sound of his voice men who fled from the South for protection dur ing tbe war, and are now endeavouring to bring on anarchy. The honourable men of New York would not wish to interfere with the rights of the minority. Wherever the Republican party exists, even in Georgia, free speech is tolerated, except in the city of New York. If this is the Democracy of New State of Trade. MANCHESTER, Nov. 23.—Since Tuesday there has been a considerable amount of business done in shipping yarns at low prices. The demand con tinues to-day, and any spinner willing to sell at the rates of Tuesday is able to do so, but not at an advance. The market closes better than for some time past, but any attempt to advance prices on the part of spinners, not only checks business, but seems at once to meet with decided opposition from all classes of buyers. Home trade yarns are stronger, and prices have advanced about id. per lb. on the quotations of Tuesday. No doubt manufacturers, in their desire to beat down prices more effectually, have abstained from purchasing so long that they have to-day been compelled to supply wants neces sary to keep their looms going, and hence sellers have reaped a little advance out of the slight reac tion of the market. A full average business has been done in these yarns. Cloths are better than on Tuesday. Since that day there has been more buying by several of the larger mercantile houses, tempted, no doubt, by the very low prices sellers were willing to take. Shirtings, in fact, had touched about 18d. per lb., and no doubt a good business could be done where these rates are freely accepted. To-day, however, an advance has generally been asked of about 3d. per piece, and the advance, trifling as it seems, has been sufficient to check busi ness. BARNSLEY, 23d.—There has been no perceptible improvement in the iron trade of South Yorkshire since last notice. The men at the Atlas and Cyclops works have now got fairly to work again, and the orders which have accumulated during the strike are now being pushed forward energetically. A few orders for spring delivery have been placed, but not to any material extent ; indeed, there are almost general complaints of a want of orders. There is very little doing in armour plates at present, as there is some uncertainty of the nature and amount of the navy estimates to be introduced in the coming ses sion. At the railway waggon works trade is very brisk, and there is corresponding activity in the de mand for railway material. The steel trade con tinues active, and makers of Bessemer and other descriptions are fully employed, there being plenty of orders on hand on both home and foreign account. Orders for steel and railway iron from America are being completed as fast as possible in order to escape the additional imposts of the new Tariff Bill. A large quantity of power looms are being manu factured both for English and foreign marketh. Makers of pig iron in South Yorkshire are not manufacturing much at present, having some stocks on hand which were made a few months ago. Nevertheless the puddlers, in most instances, are fully employed. The coal trade was never known to be better. A HUNT AT COMPIEGNE. On the 17th November there was a hunt in the forest If Compiegne. The meet was at Puits- du- Roi, one of the finest and largest of the crossways in the forest. To those who had arrived there about one o'clock a fine sight was presented. On one side was the pack, consisting of 64 great white hounds, spotted with black and tan, drawn up in battle array, in charge of servants attired in glittering liveries. In the centre were the hunters wearing the uniform of the imperial hunt, or the scarlet coats in which Englishmen delight, and in one of the great avenues were char-à-bancs and court carriages driven up at a gallop to their places. A confusion of toilets, of costumes, and of colours made up a pic ture full of animation, enclosed as it was by the lofty forest. The trees, already nearly leafless, ap peared to let fall with regret those leaves of purple and gold with which autumn had tricked them. The uniform of the imperial hunt consists of a green coat with silver buttons, and a collar of scarlet velvet. The facings and seams are covered with gold and silver lace, forming a sort of scutcheon on the figure —a scarlet vest, with similar trimmed breeches of white doeskin ; heavy boots rising above the knee— a Louis XV. hat, called a lampion, likewise trimmed with gold and silver lace. The Emperor, the Em press, and the Prince Imperial only wear in the hat a long white plume. When permission to wear this costume is given the chief huntsman sends with the certificate the buttons, stamped with the imperial crown, which are to be worn on the coat. Hence the expression " to receive the button," and the abbreviation "a button," signifying one who has the right to wear this dress and to take part in the hunt. Besides the privilege of being invited, by right, to hunt, the button also confers that of dining with the Emperor on almost every occasion of a hunt. In fact, it is very rarely that the chief huntsman, after receiving his Majesty's commands, does not inform all the " buttons" that they are invited to dine at the palace. The master of the horse and the mounted piqueurs are distin guished from the huntsmen by wearing breeches of scarlet cloth with seams of gold and silver lace. In stead of the lampion, they wear a large cocked hat like that of a gendarme, but trimmed with gold and silver. The whippers-in wear the same dress as the piqueurs, except the great boots, which would hinder them from running. They wear shoes with buckles, and long white stockings tied below the knee. It is wonderful to see them following the pack in full cry and to hear them shouting to encourage the dogs. Nothing stops them. They run under woods, across briars, ditches, and brambles, and are almost always among the first in at the death. No one wears a decoration on the dress of the hunt. The Emperor only when he rides has the badge of the Legion of Honour on his hunting coat. Any one may follow the hunt if he be well mounted and can ride well enough. The Prince Imperial was to-day first at the meet. His imperial highness rode a small cream-coloured Arab horse, and wore the full dress of the hunt, as well as M. Bachou, his esquire, and the son of Dr. Conneau, who were at his side. The young prince rode round the open space, handling his horse with an ease and grace which the beholders could not fail to admire. A few minutes later the Emperor and Empress arrived in char4c-bancs. The Emperor wore the simple dress of a private gentle man. The Empress wore a turban and mantle of maroon velvet. Apropos of the toilet of her Majesty; it has been remarked that up to the present time she has only worn of an evening dresses made or embroi dered at Lyons. The Emperor left his carriage and walked round the company shaking hands and speak ing with several persons; then the Prince of Mos kowa's grand huntsman having received his Ma jesty's commands gave directions to the huntsmen, and started to beat the nearest cover. The dogs started a stag which was seen to leap into au avenue close by followed by a dozen dogs. For some time it seemed likely that there would be but poor sport, as he kept dodging into cover near Puit-du-B,oi ; but at length he broke, and darting at the top of his speed towards the pond of Sainte Perrine, was fol lowed by the hunters, to whom he afforded au ex cellent day's amusement. AQUATICS. THE OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY BOAT RACE. Speculations are already rife here as to the probability or improbability of a challenge being sent from the Cam bridge University Boat Club to the sister university, and there aro not a few men who would counsel the president (Mr. W. B. Griffiths) not to send the usual challenge un less there appears to be a good prospect of winning. Others would have the light blue still to go pluckily on, hoping that it may once again bo victorious. The trial eights have been doing some good work, rowing to Baitsbite-lock, and, on returning, dividing the course into two at Grassy. Mr. Griffiths has received the assistance of Mr. Bourke and Mr. Still. Mr. Pinckney, who rowed stroke to First Trinity at the Mayraces last year, and to the Black Prince, at Henley, has been rowing stroke to one of the boats, and Mr. Wb.t ney, of St. John's, has rowed stroke in the other.

The Colquhoun sculls were presented to the Lady Mar garet Boat Club in 1835 by Mr. J. Colquhoun, and are now open to the university. They are held by the winner for a year, the club at the same time presenting him with a cup of the value of £l5. All the best men who are in residence generally enter for these races, and tile successful compe titor may fairly be considered the best sculler of his time. These are bumping races until three men aro left in ; these three then row a time race. There wore 14 entries this year, being not so many as usual. The first race was on Tuesday, the 20th, when they started in the following order:— Sir A. Lamb, 3d Trinity; Weighell, Jesus; Shann, Ist Trinity; Finch, Lady Margaret; Roe, Down ing; Airy, 2d Trinity; Wood, Emmanuel; Leavens, Queen's ; Griffiths, 3d Trinity ; Maddock, Clare ; Elton, Jesus ; Watson, Christ's ; Hon. J. Gordon, Ist Trinity ; and Rasch, 3d Trinity. The favourites wore Griffith, Shann, and Finch, whilst Lambe, Wood, and Gordon bad several supporters. There were five bumps made. Shaun bumped Weighell at Grassy-corner. Airy sculled up to his post, as Roe did not put in an appearance. Wood, to the astonish ment of every one, bumped Finch over two places in the Plough -reach ; Griffiths ran into Leavens easily, and Elton bumped Maddock. The two last, getting across the river, somewhat stopped Watson, who was in consequence bumped by Gordon. This last bump, however, was not claimed, and Watson was allowed to row again. The sud den collapse of Finch, who was looked upon by many as a probable winner of the sculls, was a general surprise. He lost his lead completely, steered wildly, and came utterly to grief. The second race took place on Wednesday, and the nine left in started in the following order:—Elton, Wood, Rasch, Griffiths, Shann, Lambe, Airy, Watson, and Gordon. Wood bumped Elton, who steered some what wildly ; Griffiths bumped Rasch at once ; and Watson bumped Airy, who was afterwards swamped. The third race was on Thursday, when the remaining six started thus—Lambe, Wood, Shann, Gordon, Griffiths, and Wat son. This was a very fine race. Shann bumped Wood going round Grassy-corner, and Griffiths bumped Gordon just before Grassy. Wood was badly steered, but he sculled pluckily. A protest, however, was made against the bump, as it was asserted that Shann started in front of his post. This being referred to the captains, they de cided in favour of Wood, who was thus left in the race. The fourth race was on Friday, a most miserable day. Only the most enthusiastic rowers ventured to go down to the race-course, but these constituted a large number. The five started in the following order : —Lambe, Watson, Shann, Griffiths, and Wood. Shann bumped Watson in the Gut, and Griffiths bumped Lambe over two places round Ditton corner, sculling in such style that he is at present the favou rite for the final time race, which takes place this day. TH F. POLITICAL CAMPAIGN IN THE UNITED STATES. —The Daily News holds that bhe triumph of Re publicanism in the United States is complete. The Democratic party is permanently discredited and overthrown. The history of American compromises is at an end ; and the history of the application of American principles to the difficulties of Federal Government has begun. The President and his ad visers, the Southern leaders and the Northern De mocrats, would have continued the old record, be ginning a new chapter of compromises with inequality and concessions to injustice. But the new leaf is turned, and the moral of the last elections is that there is no power on the continent which can turn it back again. Mr. Johnson's attitude towards Congress when it meets, strengthened by knowledge of the character of its successor, will make no per manent difference to any but himself ; at most it will only decide whether the new era of reconstruc tion shall have a calm beginning, or whether its first hours shall be obscured by storms.
