There was little or no excitement consequent on her arrival here to-day. It was known early in the morning that a large screw steamer was at anchor outside the bar, waiting for water to bring her over, and that sh 3 was a Confe derate cruiser was evident from her flying the Confederate ensign. The Shenandoah (formerly the steamer Sea King) is certainly a fine specimen of naval architecture, and as she steamed up the Mersey looked exceedingly well. her hull is long, finely moulded, and painted black, and as she is ship rigged and rather heavily spanned, her whole appearance is that of a fast and good sea-boat. She had no guns on deck —all her armament being stowed away below hi boxes. She lies anchored close to her Majesty's ship Donegal, and we believe we are correct in stating that she will be in posses sion of the Government officials—indeed, some Customs officers are now on board —and that as soon as matters, are arranged she will be handed over to the United States (3rovernment.

The time-expired and invalided soldiers were landed from the ship alongside Ports mouth dockyard this morning, and forwarded on to their respective destinations, under the supervision of Capt. Stuart, Unattached, Acting Assist.-Quar termaster-G-eneral, the invalids going to the Great Victoria Military Hospital at Netley, and the time expired men to the regimental depots. The Tamar awaits orders from the Admiralty relative to the future movements. If not paid out of commission she will require a heavy refit before she will again be in a condition to proceed on further service: The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Hon. R. W. Craven, midship man, to the Spiteful; the Rev.W. G. Tucker, M.A., chaplain to Haslar Hospital, to be chaplain of Greenwich Hospital, under the Act 28th and 29th of Victoria, cap. 89 ; the Rev.

We yesterday observed in our remarks on the thanksgiving day that we believed regret was very generally felt that that day had not been fixed by the Governor's proclamation. It has been suggested that some of our readers might infer that the non appointment of a day was an omission on the part of his excellency. Those who had read a few lines on the same subject which appeared in Monday's Chronicle could not, of course, be under that impres sion ; but to prevent the possibility of a misinter pretation of our words yesterday, we will briefly state wherein we believe there is a very general agreement amongst the public that a mistaken course was adopted with respect to the thanks giving day. In all the sad incidents of the late calamity there have been no divisions or distinc tion of race or creed. The comprehensive charity of the relief fund has included all who possessed the single credential of want orsuffering. It was, we believe, generally felt that the same comprehensive spirit • - . the same unanimity should mark our *** The above works possess all the quaint humour of Sam Slick, all the sparkling variety of Joe Hiller, and all the racy freshness of fun and frolic of Yankee wit.

Boys thus: admitted are received free, boarded, clothed, educated, and taught till they are 11 years of age. With the view t o secure the election of the most deserving cases, the Committe have from the first discouraged canvas sing, and they do not print any addresses of the subscribers. The voting papers contain a description of each case, as care ful y investigated by the Committee, and with this informa tion the subscribers are able to judge for themselves as to those most eligible for free admission. This Home was opened in April, 1864. It was designed to take in the little ones whose charact r and circumstances disqualify them for the Orphan Asylums, and whose tender age precludes their admission to the Refuges. Such are these who, from neglect, are already on the road to ruin. Such are those who have been deserted by their natural protectors and left to beecome idle wanderers. Such are those whose parents may have at one time or other received parish relief, and who are now friendless orphans. Such are those whose parents are breakers of the law, or are in prison, and who train their children in the same path. Such are those whose evil associations have already had their painful effect, and must lead them to a life of crime and misery. There are now 50 little inmates from about four years of age to 10. There is room for nearly 10,, and the Committee would joyfully eee the Home filled at once ; they only wait for the necesary subscriptions. The Committee feel constrained to plead for those who cannot thus plead for themselves ; and, referring to the cir cumstances of some who have been already admitted, they ask—is it right to make a widow and hey family paupers for life because one of them (the naughty boy o: the lamely) runs wild in the streets and is beyond her control ? Is it kind to tell her, because she has so large a family, that you will not h 1p her to put one of them into a Home, but that they must ail go into "the house ?" Is it doing the best we can for the little destitute orphan to send him to the workhouse. Is it doing to others as we would they should do unto us that when these little ones have unnatural parents whu turn them into the streets, or force them by ill-Treatment to "rue away," none of us show d be found to care for them, to speak a kindly word to them, to befriend them, to house and clothe firm ? Shall we leave them still on the doorstep, passing by on the other side, or else exclaiming "Am I my brother's keeper ?" The necessity for an Institution for these little ones is evi dent from the police statisecs, which show that in London alone, in one year, no fewer than 311 boys under t 0 years of are, have been apprehended for various offences, 79 of whom were convicted and punished, while the bulk, 232 were dis charged by the magistrates with a rebuke, as being too young to punish. though not too young to learn the beginnings of crime. On the other hand, there are numbers who, but for the timely help afforded by such an Institution, must otherwise become paupers, and losing all ideas of self-reli • ance and self-help, be permanent burdens to the State. the Home for Little Boys has, therefore, been established to rescue the little ones, to save them from the prison o n th e one hand, and the workhouse on the other, and to endeavour to make them useful members of society. The daily routine of the Institution presents all the fea tures of a home, a school, and a workshop. The little ones are cared for as children ; they have their regular meals, their suitable clothing, their hours of play and amusement, and their singing* class. They ate treated as scholars ; every morning is devoted to scho 1 work—reading, and writing, and cipherinee and Scriptural instruction, with occasional lessons in ofjects and other subjects. But they are also trained to work. As they must all, an that at a very ear l y period in lite, earn their living by the sweat of their brow, they are here at once taught habits of industry. So the after noons are occupied with various industrial occupations— making brown paper bags for bankers, and white I aper bags for tradesmen, and door mats and servants' kneelers tor any who will buy them; picking the coil for the mats, mending the c othes, &c. Some a'sist the master in the garden, digging, planting, watering, weeding, and so forth. By degrees they are being made useful in the house, scrubbing and sweeping. while the elder ones dean all the boots, knives, &c. In this way it is sought to fit them for an active working life. 2d. By payment of ss. a week, made quarterly in advance. All children must be under 10 years of age at the time of admission. Those received on payment are admitted at any time as soon as approved by the Committee, Elections of children to be admitted free will take place as frequently as the increase in the annual subscriptions will admit, till the Home is full; they will then be held periodi cally rorros of application for the admission of children - MaY be hag at the 4 4 ;412e, and of the Honorary Secretary, - - - SIXTY-SIX,' by J.

As the interest in almost every section of the oil region is now so widely distributed, it may not be amiss to say a few words relative to the large amount of develop ment now going forward and already completed on West Hickory Jreek, a stream next above and parallel to Pithole, and which bears every evidence of soon becom ing a successful river. This stream is about eight miles in length, and throughout the valley is one calculated to attract the interest of practical oil operators. The develop; ments now going foritard have already shown the forma tions to be of the most promising character, and four wells are completed with the following results :—The Hickory Farm Oil Company's well tubed in April last, for a long time yielding over 100 barrels per day, of very superior lubricating oil, which has sold all summer at from $25 to $3O per barrel, is now yielding 20 barrels daily. On the White farm, two miles higher up the stream, a well tubed last Tuesday is pumping 30 barrels of exactly similar oil daily. The Miles well, two and a half miles higher up the stream, commenced on Friday morning last, and is yield ing 25 barrels of light oil daily. A well on the John Germon farm, one and a half miles above the last named well, is about to be tubed at the depth of 600 feet, with the result, of course, unknown, but the interested parties are very sanguine of success. There are several wells now going down still above those named, by the Fremont Oil Company, Cherry Run and West Hickory Company, and others, all of which are having the proper indications. The prices of territory on this stream are advancing as rapidly as has been known in any other locality. lam informed by a gentleman owning land near the Miles well, which he has repeatedly offered at $250 per acre, that on Saturday last he refused a bona fide offer of $2,000 per acre for the same. Thus it is evi dent that this stream is soon to take its place in the list of those famous for their hidden treasure. REMARKABLE OIL STRIKE IN KENTUCKY.—The editor of the Louisville Journal has seen a letter from a reliable source, giving some facts as to the great oil well recently bored in Cumberland county, Kentucky. The well is on Crocus creek, which flows into the Cumberland river about 10 miles above Burksville. Crocus is a large creek, heading in Adair and Russell counties, and flowing in h south-westerly course some 20 or 30 miles through Cuni berland county into the river. The indications now are that the creek traverses the finest old region in the State, if not in tho world. This well commenced to flow at 10 o'clock a.m. on the Bth inst., and has been steadily pour ing out the wealth of oil ever since. The streams come up through a four and a half inch bore, and is thrown this size five or six feet about tho mouth of the well. Its flow is estimated by some as high as 300 barrels per day, and by none at less than 100 ; but of course the quantity is guess work, and will be so until it is reduced to absolute measurement. The Cumberland river is covered with oil from Crocus creek to Burksville, and far below, and looks like a river of oil instead of water. PETROLEUM IN TENNESSEE AND NORTH ALABAMA. —A petroleum excitement is liable to break out in Ten nessee and North Alabama at any moment. A correspon dent of the New York World, writing from the Cumberland Mountains, in the former State, says :—" As for petroleum, these table lands and their slopes for more than ten miles on each side, will probably prove to be the richest source in our Union. No country will, most certainly, yield as much of the valuable oil as Venango county, Pennsylvania, where the petroleum of the carboniferous and Devonian rocks (the two richest sources of all) contri bute together; but the whole of these mountains and their surroundings' contain the petroleum of the carboniferous and silurian rocks, and being much more extensive than the Alleghanies in Pennsylvania, and not having been dis turbed by metamorphic action, will certainly yield more of the oil than either Pennsylvania, Virginia, or Kentucky. PETROLEUM IN INDIANA.—The Indianopolis Sen tinel says :—" Oil has been struck at Henryville, Clark county, on the Jeffersonville-road, at a depth of four hundred feet. It is a flowing well, and before the well was plugged it had run over a large surface. The oil is of a very superior quality, worth crude $1 a gallon. This is the first demonstration to prove that oil reservoirs underly the soil of Indiana, and, of course, will create a good - dog of excitement." MALTA, Noi 1.---We are shortly expecting the fleet back to lalta. Vice-Admiral Sir R. Smart left Naples for this island, under sail, on the 30th ult. Owing t& 'cholera having broken out in the suburbs, and c es having manifested themselve s i n the town itself, .a quarantine of ten days ha s b een placed on all a ivals from that port. Her Maje s t y ' s ship Pelican, 1 screw corvette,. Commander R. P. i Cator, which i ve d on th e 26th u lt. f rom N ap l es and Palermo, d the Phoebe, 35, screw frigate, Capt. W. R. 411 and, which arrived on the 27th from Naples an 4 Messina, were consequently put in quarantine. Onithe 30th the Chanticleer, 17, Com mander W. H. renwick, arrived from the Piraeus of Athens, and on fhe 31st the Surprise, 4, screw gun vessel, Commander G. Tyron, arrived from Nisida, the quarantine station of Naples, and was admitted to pratique. - Mr. T: Royle, R.N., has arrived here from the Victorkt (flagship), for duty in the Admi ral-Superintendlut's-office during the absence on sick leave of th 4 secretary. Three days' quaran tine have also been established on arrivals from Southampton in the absence of clean bills of health from that town. The passengers for Malta by the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamship Syria were, in conseethicesof this sanitary pre,cautioriiiity measure, detained in the Lazaretto on their arrival here on the 28th ult. The screw steamer Hawk, 552 tons register, Capt. H. Gilpin, belonging to the Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Company, arrived here on the 30th ult., 15 days from London and 9-1- from Dartmouth, into which latter port she had put from stress of weather. Among the pas sengers are Mr. Gibson, Government Inspector •of the Malta and Alexandria Telegraph, Mr. Temple, engineer to the company; and Mr. Saunders, electri cian, besides a large staff of foremen and labourers. The Hawk is to be stationed here in the service of the Malta and Alexandria Telegraph, and replaces the Fanny Lambert, which was not found to answer all the purposes required. Her Majesty's ships in port are the Orlando, - 46, Cossack, 20, and Assur ance, 4 ; besides a few small vessels, and the four ships the arrival of which is above reported. There are also here under repairs the Russian frigate Per esvet, 45, and the Tunisian screw steamer Mahersia. Her Majesty's ship Terrible, paddle-wheel frigate, Megmra, screw troopship, and Arethusa, 35, screw frigate, are expected in the Mediterranean. The Royal Alfred, iron-cased wooden frigate, 4,056 tons, 800 horse-power, will be completed in her ar mour plating and floated out of No. 3 dock of Ports mouth yard early in the ensuing month. This ship first appeared on the Admiralty Navy List as one of the latest improved 90 gun screw line-of-battle ships, and was all but completed in that form at Portsmouth, when iron-clad ships became popu lar. She was then ordered to be razeed to a frigate, divested of quarter and stern galleries, figure-head, &c., given a conical shaped stern and a swan-breast stem, and clothed externally, from five feet below her load water-line upward, with 4i-inch rolled iron armour plates. In the meantime, however, 4f-inch iron-plating on the sides of a wooden ship possessing no inner iron skin had been demonstrated by experi ments at Shoehury and elsewhere to be worse than useless. Accordingly the Royal Alfred has been again re-arranged, and in her new and latest form will, without doubt, be the most formidable iron-cased converted wooden ship afloat. She will at the same time possess serious points of weakness, which are unavoidable in a converted wooden vessel. Purely as a specimen of workmanship, or rather, we should say, as a specimen of the skill of shipwrights in iron work, the Royal Alfred will surpass every other ship afloat. The edges of the armour-plating have been fitted with excessive nicety,and the platse subjected - teotpc.fic t -gt‘iiet , ''.- 1. - .7 e Fe,...--te..c2.94..50.5t<1v chipping, filings bui:Xfilig which seems unnecessary. Commander Alc i liibald D. W. Fletcher, who com manded the Triton in the Black Sea, and was subse queltky employed in the Coastguard and the packet service, yesterday joined and took up the command of her Majesty's 6 gun paddle sloop Spiteful, com missioned at Woolwich for the Brazilian station. The Spiteful was yesterday docked for survey and examination of defects. The whole of her officers have been appointed, and the crew selected from the continuous service men berthed on board the flag ship Fisgard. Unless, as it is feared, some of her timbers may require removal, she will draw her stores and proceed to sea without delay. The iron paddlewheel vessel Oberon, in commis sion, returned to Woolwich on Saturday from a trial of her machinery, and will again leave harbour to day and proceed to Sheerness, in p ro paration to make an official sea trial of Capt. Cworane's experi mental vertical tube boiler. Her Majesty's iron screw storeship Supply, Com mander C. Bawden, employed on particular service, arrived on Sunday evening at Woolwich from the Mediterranean, laden with 220 tons of War Depart ment stores, naval and victualling stores from Malta, and the heavy baggage of Sir W. Codrington, late Governor and Commander-in-Chief at Gibraltar. She sailed from Malta on the 18th ult., arrived at Gibraltar on the 25th, in quarantine, left again on the following day, arrived at Spithead on Friday last, and sailed direct for Woolwich on Saturday. She encountered a series of head . winds the whole way, and experienced exceedingly rough weather in crossing the Bay. In addition to her cargo she brought home some naval invalids belonging to the Arethusa, and some deserters. The Supply will . shortly be paid out of commission, to be docked for repairs. The hired transport William Napier yesterday commenced shipping a cargo of guns, shot, and other stors at Woolwich, for her Majesty's ships Excel lent and Cruiser, and her Majesty's Superintendent of War Department Stores at Portsmouth. Her Majesty's screw troopship Tamar, 2,812 tons, 700 horse power, Capt. Frederick H. Stirling, ar rived at Portsmouth yesterday from China, with military and naval officers, and invalided and time-expired soldiers and seamen on board. The Tamar's sailing dates are from Hongkong, August 12 ; Mauritius, September 2 ; Cape of Good Hope and Simon's Bay, September 24 ; St. Helena, October 3 ; Ascension, October 9 ; St. Vincent, October 20. Fine weather was experienced during the passage home, but the time was somewhat lengthened owing to the faulty condition of the ship's boilers. Twenty-six deaths occurred onboard since leaving Hongkong, chiefly among ti the women and children accompanying the troops, from dy sentery. Lieut. Lyster, of the Royal Engineers, who embarked at Hongkong, died on board just before the ship arrived at Spithead. Mr. John C. Gruchy, chief engineer of the Tamar, a naval officer of high professional attainments and greatly esteemed by his brother officers, also died during the passage. The naval and military passengers and invalids comprise Mon eel, 2d battalion 2d battalion 9th Regiment ; two purveyors' clerks ; invalids for Netley -38 men, 13 women, and 20 crise l :_From Regiment ; Li eu t . . Ni c h o l son , —From Hongkong—Lieut. children ; time expired, for depots--14 men, 6 women, and 4 children. From Port Louis, Mauri tius—Capt. Maunsell, 2d battalion, 11th Regi ment ; invalids for Netley-49 men, 4 women, and 9 childrem; time-expired, for depots -10 men, 2 women, and 1 child. From the Cape of Good Hope —Col. Young, 67th Regiment ; Capt. F. 0. Bar nard, 96th Regiment ; Lieut. England, Ist West India Regiment; Lieuts. Cardew and Renwick, 67th Regiment ; Medical Staff —Assist.-Surgeons C. E.

Beath had medical charge of the invalids on board. The naval and civil portion of the passen ger and invalid list, chiefly embarked at Hongkong, consisted of Dr. Palmer, R.N., Assist.-Surg. Inman, R.N., Assist,-Sarg. Rawlings, R.N., Sub-Lieuts. Stewart and Doughty, Second-Masters Dobson and CAPTAIN MAYNE REID has recently addressed the the following communication to a contemporary :--- " The inclosed, which I clip from the London Reriew, ap pears to be 'going the round of the papers': Captain Mayne Reid's new novel of ' The Headless Horseman' is spoken of as about to be dramatised for representation at Astley's. The prairie hunter capering about without his head will, it is thought, provo the greatest theatrical sensa tion at present announced.' May I request space in your columns to say that, the paragraph above quoted is the earliest information I have received of the fact (or fiction) to which it refers. That the story in question being an entirely original conception, and not yet before the public, I defy any theatrical playright, or scribe of the Hippo drome, not gifted with clairvoyance,, to give a correct dramatic version of it. That having suffered considerable damage through the dramatising of several of my novels (' Scalp-Hunters," and 'Qua droon,' under the spurious title of Octoroon,'—a name not even known in Louisiana!)' done not only without my consent, but without the more scanty courtesy of con sulting me, I have this time taken the precaution (called for by the incompleteness of our Copyright Law) to dramatize the story myself. With your permission, then, I beg leave to intimate to all theatrical managers, that it must be 'hands off ' with the 'Headless Horseman !' This silent gentleman has yet many•months of weary wander ings before him—many journeyings through prairie and chappard—many perils by flood and field—and until those be passed, it is hoped that no unhallowed hand will be be laid on his bridle-rein.—MAYNE REID." LEONARDO DA VINCI.—The anatomical drawings and writings of Leonardo da Vinci are amongst the choicest treasures in the Royal library, m Windsor Castle. They are contained in about 200 detached leaves of note books, and appear to be the records of studies commenced as his needful training in art, and would perhaps have been employed in the great Treatise on Painting, which he afterwards projected. But he carried his researches far beyond what was required for these purpose; and arrived at results which entitle him to a place in the foremost rank of discoveries in this branch of science. Vasari, after . de scribing (with a little pardonable inaccuracy) these works, reports the opinion entertained of them in his day. ," It appears," he say; "almost incredible that this sublime genius could at the same time discourse, as he has done, of art, and of the muscles, nerve; veins, and any part of the frame, all treated with equal diligence and success." And Dr. William Hunter, who saw them in the last century, in the royal collection, thus expressed his appreciation of thorn:—" When I consider what pains he has taken upon every part of the body, the superiority of his universal genius, his particular excellence in mechanics and hydrau lic; and the attention with which such a man would examine and see objects which ho was to draw, I am fully persuaded that Leonardo was the best anatomist, at that time, in the world." These drawings and writings it is combine Queen has been graciously pleased to permit their publica tion, in the interest of these studies. The whole work will consist of about 250 plates, in folio, with the text of the MS. printed in full, an English and a French translation, and all needful notes and elucidations. Mr. Panizzi, prin cipal librarian of the British Museum, has undertaken to superintend the text; and Dr. Sharpen secretary, Royal Society, professor of anatomy and physiology in Univer sity College, London, will assist in the preparation of the scientific economy. It will be issued in twenty parts, at the price of one guinea each; and the publication will commence early in the year 1866. Subscribers names will be received by Trubner and Co., CO, Paternoster-row, London. A PARIS PEABODY.—" The largest subscription yet received," says the Nord, " in' aid of the families who have suffered by the cholera is that of 50,000 f., given by M. Greffulhe. The great fortune of the donor explains the importance of the gift, without, however, detracting from its merit. M. Jean Louis Greffulhe is, in fact, one of the richest capitalists in France, as his property is estimated at one hundred million francs. M. Greffulhe, who, without being a banker, employs as an occupation that immense capital,,operates often, to the great advantage of trade, at a discount inferior to that of the Bank of France. M. Greffulhe is an old gentleman of more than 80, if a man in the full possession of both energy of body and mind can be called old. He has left the residence which ho for merly occupied in the Chaussee d'Antin to reside in the handsome Hotel Soltykoff, in the Ruo do St. Arnaud, given by the Emperor to M. Billault, and sold after the death of that Minister. Two nephews of M. Greffulhe are both dis tinguished members of the French Jockey Club ; one of them usually officiates as judge at the races at Paris and Chantilly." EDINBURGH MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS.—At the pre sent municipal term a change will take place in the office of Lord Provost of Edinburgh. Mr. C. Lawson, who has filled the civic chair for tho statutory period of throe years, now retires, to the universal regret of the citizens of all parties, whom he has thoroughly conciliated by his kindly disposition and temperate rule. The manner in which he has supported the dignity and pretensions of the Scottish capital at Court on occasions of State and in the struggles with Dublin for precedence, and his splendid hospitality, of which even royalty has not hesitated on re peated occasions to partake, have won for himself a cha racter as a chief magistrate which it will be difficult on the part of any of his successors to emulate. The election of a new Lord Provost takes place on Friday, when Mr. Wm. Chambers, head of the popular publishing firm, is to be proposed, with the expectation of a unanimous election. Mr. Chambers served in the Town Council for a year after the passing of the Burgh Reform Act, and in the interval has filled various public offices, gaining for himself a posi tion and character which will enable him to aspire to the civic curule. ZINC MANUFACTURE IN ILLINOIS.—The existence of rich zinc ores in various parts of the country has long been known, but the process of manufacture has required such large preliminary outlay and great skill in conducting the complicated process that but little attention has been given to it. The few attempts made were generally failures, and the belief was confirmed that metallic zinc could not be successfully manufactured in this country. Perseve rance has at last triumphed and the La Salle Zinc Works, situated 90 miles southwest of Chicago, are in a full tide of prosperity, proving American zinc an accomplished fact. ENORMOUS INCREASE IN THE EMIGRATION FROM LIVERPOOL. —According to the official returns of the Go vernment emigration officials at Liverpool, yesterday, it appears that a large and, indeed, sudden increase has taken place within the past month in the exodus from that port. It appears that during the month just ended there sailed from Liverpool to the United States " under the act" 25 ships, with 798 cabin and 7,518 steerage passengers, of whom 2,096 were English, 118 Scotch, 3,184 Irish, and 2,120 foreigners; to Canada there were five ships, with 113 cabin and 1,886 steerage passengers, of whom 539 wore English, 387 Irish, 17 Scotch, and 143 other coun tries ; to Victoria there were two ships, with 47 cabin and 517 steerage passengers, of whom 201 were English, 35 Scotch, 267 Irish, and 16 other countries ; making a total of 32 ships, with 958 cabin and 9,121 steerage pas sengers. In " short ships," or ships not sailing under the act, there sailed to the United States five ships and 526 passengers ; to New South Wales one ship with 28 passen gers ; to Victoria one ship with 26 passengers ; to the West Indies two ships with 19 passengers ; to South America four ships with 123 passengers ; and to Africa one ship with'49 passengers, being an increase over the same mouth of last•year of 3,261. The friends of John Mitchell, formerly an Irish rebel, subsequently anAmerican rebel, more recently editor of the Confederate organ in New York, and lastly a pri soner in Fortress Monroe, are making strenuous efforts to secure his release. Edwin Booth, the tragedian, was lately united in marriage, in Philadelphia, to Miss IL Havel, the daughter Of Jules Haile], the perfumer. of the scourge that has lately so severely afflicted us. The most obvious and proper, and perhaps the only way of fixing a thanksgiving day acceptable to the whole of the residents in this city and garrison, of every class and every religious denomination, would have been to request the Governor, as the represen tative of the Queen, to appoint a day by public pro clamation. No one who knows the Governor could for a moment doubt that his excellency would most gladly have taken his proper part in this offering of grateful thanks. We think it unfortunate that this course was not adopted, and that the day of solemn thanksgiving was not universally instead of gene rally observed throughout Gibraltar. In Roman Catholic Spain we observe that the appointment of the day for the celebration of a Te Deunz for the deliverance of the people of any place from the epidemic rests with the civil government and not with the bishops. In our own community we are sure that in a solemn act of the whole population, it was generally regretted that the very highest autho rity should not have been requested to take that part which, as the head of this society and the re presentative of our Sovereign, rightly pertained to him. Educated Englishmen, whose loyalty springs from a just appreciation of the liberty and security they enjoy under the protection of the laws and con stitution of their own land, are jealous of the respect due to their Sovereign and all who represent her, and there must be many who offered their tribute of thanksgiving on Thursday last who, when doing so, regretted that, by what we must consider an unfor tunate mistake, there was not an unanimous observ ance of the day by the whole community and its legitimate head. We have received, says the Gilraltar Chronicle, of the 30th ult., the following letter from the Right Rev. Bishop Scandella, Roman Catholic Vicar Apostolic : TO THE EDITOR OP THE GIBRALTAR CHRONICLE. _ St. Bernard's College, Oct. 30, 1865. Sir,—May I be permitted to submit a few observations on the remarks contained in your editorial of Saturday ? -When the cholera began to rage in this city, I at once directed public prayers to be offered up that tho terrible scourge might be averted from us ; and these sacred offices were attended by numerous and devout congregations. The epidemic having happily ceased, it was the first duty of my ministry to exhort my flock to return thanks to the Almighty in a solemn Te Deum. That the thanksgiving might be the more acceptable to God, I proposed that it should be solemnised by the consecration of an entire day thereto. Guided, doubtless, by the same considerations the Venerable Archdeacon Sleeman and the Chief Rabbi ob served the like conduct in both cases. As, then, there was solely question of acts purely and exclusively ecclesiastical and religious, which in no wise interfered with the civil and temporal, I do not see how the fulfilment of our duties within the strict circle of our own powers can deserve to bo sti:Taatised as an ";..._;— . ..;exeorit t ,-- regretthat our thanrs giving was not solemnized in virtue of an official procla mation, I am deeply and sincerely consoled that it took place in force of the spontaneous will of an entire popula tion without pressure of any kind. Had it been celebrated as you suggest, would not the giving up of all work have been for some the result, more or less, of co-action? Would it not have deprived the people of Gibraltar of an excellent opportunity of giving public testimony of their religious sentiments, and of proving how false is the accu sation which more than one person has put forth against them, that they are irreligious and immoral ? Has it not been a consoling and edifying spectacle, that an entire people, of their own accord, and moved solely by religious feelings, have consecrated an entire day to this thanks giving, renouncing all worldly gain for its sake ? As for myself I entertain not the least doubt that this spectacle has afforded our respected authorities far more consolation than if it would have been the result of a pro clamation. It is certainly to be rdgretted that the public func tionaries, both civil and military, were not able to join the rest of the inhabitants, but I consider it a far lesser evil ; the more so, that had the heads of departments made duo representations on the matter, permission would most pro bably have been vary cheerfully accorded. I beg to observe finally that if it belongs to the civil government and not to the bishops in Catholic Spain to name the day for a Te Deum,* the same principle is not ap plicable to Gibraltar. In Spain there is ao religious liberty. The Catholic religion is, by the constitution, the only religion of the State. Between the State and the Church there are concordats and conventions, and, conse quently, reciprocal rights and obligations. In Gibraltar, on the contrary, we enjoy the fullest and most complete reli gious liberty; there is not, legally, any State church ; there are no concordats or conventions. From this very import ant difference it follows that if the Te Deuns I;q3 a civico religious act in Spain, it is pure and exclusively a religious solemnity in Gibraltar. Inasmuch as your remarks of Saturday were, by many, interpreted as directed in a groat measure to me, I trust to your impartiality for the insertion of this letter in to-day's Chronicle, leaving to the public to decide whether or not I have fallen into "an unfortunate mistake."—l have the honour to be, sir, your obedient servant, JOHN B. SCANDELLA, V.A. • The Gibraltar Chronicle, in another part of that same day's impression, unconvinced by the above cogent reasons of the R. C. Bishop, reiterates its advocacy of Routine and Red Tape to the last ex tremity. * Persons of authority assure me that in Spain, when eyer there are reasons of a general nature affecting tho nation at large for public prayers or for a Te Dewn, the ini tiative then rests with the Crown ; but that, when th e cause is special, affecting only .a particular locality, th en th e bishops give the necessary instructions and invite the authorities to assist at the function.

Since the above was written we learn that the Shenandoah has been delivered up to Capt. Paynter, of her Majesty's ship Donegal, and she is now in possession of some of the crew of the Donegal and a posse of Customs officers. The crew of the Shenan doah numbered 133 men all told, and, as soon as she was surrendered, Capt. Waddell, together with some of the officers, separated. Since setting out on her work of destruction the Shenandoah has de stroyed 37 vessels, the majority of which were whalers, and. these were destroyed after the cessa tion of hostilities. To allow-how the operations of the Shenandoah affected the sperm oil market, We may state that her depredations amongst the whaling fleets has caused sperm oil to run up from £7O to £l2O per tun, and it is likely to advance still further, as until the news of the surrender of the Shenandoah is known in the ports from whence whalers depart the Arctic seas will certainly be bare of the customary amount of whaling vessels. Our readers will remember that several months since we stated that the steamer Laurel sailed from Liverpool for Modina with arms for the Shenandoah. Though this statement was promptly contradicted by the owner of the Laurel, yet in a very few weeks afterwards the homeward West African mail steamer soon confirmed the statement, for while lying at Modina the Laurel and the Shenandoah met, and the cargo of the former vessel was trans ferred to the latter, and the cruiser commenced work. A Very Pretty Quarrel as it Stands. There is but one Charles Read; and Tomlins is his critic. In consequence of the letter addressed to the Reader last week by Mr. Charles Reade, the fol lowing communication appears this week - in the same journal from the hand of Mr. F. G. Tom lins : To the Editor of the Reader. Sir,—ln a letter inserted in your last week's paper, Mr. Charles Reade has ingeniously contrived, in twenty-six rabid lines, to make four false statements ; insinuate an atrocious slander; make a claptrap appeal " to honest men and women ;" and indicate a maniacal egotism, concluding with a sensational discovery (a la theatre) that a certain Tomlins is Tomlins, a fact which I, at least, hope may long be so. Mr. Reade is so like the man who spoke in such a loud tone that no one could understand what he said, that I am not quite sure I make out the cause of his extreme wrath. As far as I comprehend it, it is that he, an author of great repute, has been attacked by an obscure scribbler, and that tho said scribbler writes anonymously. To prove the anonymous, he refers to my denouncing his (to me) revolting scenes in a full theatre—a strange mode of proving the anonymous ; an d h e i gnores t h at: ll l f'. article was signed with my initials, which are well. , ,kkro . wn to all interested in dramatic matters. With regard to obscurity, that may be it t 4 to the individual ; but scribblers who are not obsdure may be more than inconvenient to society ; especially when, in spired by an insatiable vanity, and goaded by-e 'fierce and restless egotism, they raise huge slanders, not'Only on in dividuals -; but classes; and, mating literature a mere money-:.., getting occupation, coin, not only their own hearts, but the ... - sufferings of humanity, into drachmas. On acallm roviejf of tho whole matter, and with n fun N. CD proceeding to some...overt, act of ruffianism, I must still repeat that I consider Mr. Charles Reade's play of "Never Too Late to Mend" a trumpery piece of catchpenny writ ing, spiced with horrors to excite the vitiated tastes of the mob of all ranks. As far as I am concerned this controversy is at an end, and Mr. Reade may empty the slang dictionary on me, without disturbing my peace of mind, or provoking me to further useless parley.—l am, Sir, your occasional critical. contributor, F. G. Tomlin. THE LATE PREMIER.—The following bishops were appointed by Lord Palmerston :—Hon. and Rev. Montagu Villiers, Bishop of Carlisle, 1855 ; Durham, 1861; died, 1862 ; Dr. Baring, Bishop of Gloucester, 1856; elevated to Durham, 1862 ; Dr. Tait, Bishop of London, 1856 ; Dr. Bickersteth, Bishop of Ripon, 1856, vice Dr. Longley, promoted to Durham ; Hon. and Rev. Dr. Pel ham, Bishop of Norwich, 1857 ; Dr. Wigram, Bishop of Rochester, 1860 (Dr. Vaughan having declined); Hon. and Rev. Dr. Waldegravo, Bishop of Carlisle, 1860 ; Dr. Thompson, Bishop of Gloucester, 1861, promoted to York, 1862 ; Dr. Ellicott, Bishop of Gloucester, 1861 ; Dr. H. Browne, Bishop of Ely, 1864; Dr. Jenne, Bishop of Peter borough, 1861; Dr. Jacobson, Bishop of Chester, 1865. Lord Palmerston's appointments include, therefore, 12 bishops made in ten years, of whom 11 survive. His lord ship also filled the sees of Canterbury and York by the p"o -motion of Dr. Longley and Dr. Thomson. Dr. Longley was consecrated Bishop of Ripon in 1836 by Lord Mel bourne, advanced by Lord Palmerston, first to Durham in 1856, and then to Canterbury in 1862. The following is a list of Lord Palmerston's deans :—Dr. Close, Dean of Car lisle, 1856 ; Dr. Alfred, Dean of Canterbury, 1857; Dr. Trench, Dean of Westminster, 1857; Dr. Gamier, Dean of Ripon, 1858, promoted to Lincoln, 1860 ; and died in 1864 ; Dr. Goode, Dean of Ripon, 1860 ; Dr. Henry Law, Dean of Gloucester, 1862 ; Hon. Viscount Midleton, Dean of Exeter, 1862 ; Dr. Jenne (now Bishop of Peterborough), Dean - of Lincoln, 1864; Dr. Jeremie, Dean of Lincoln, 1864; Dr. Stanley was appointed by her Majesty Dean of Westminster whilst Lordralmerston was Premier in 1861. There have been therefore 13 English mitres and 13 Eng lish deaneries given away since March, 1855, but of those one mitre and three deaneries fell to Lord Derby.. After making allowance for deaths and promotions, there remain 11 out of 28 sees now filled by bishops of Lord Palmer ston's selection, and (excluding Westminster as special) there are six out of 25 deaneries in the patronage of the Crown filled by deans of the late lamented Premier's selec tion.—Record. ENGLISII FACTORY EMIGRANTS. —The Boston Traveller says :—The steamer Bosphorus, Capt. Alexander, of Warren and Co.'s Liverpool line, which arrived here (Boston) yesterday morning, Sept. 28th, brought about 200 male and female factory operatives from England, who were procured there by agents sent out for that purpose from this country. Of this party 50 or more were for H. H. and J. S. Brown, of the Fisherville (Now Hampshire) Mills, and the remainder were for two or three mills at Lawrence, Massachusetts. The steamer Propontis, of the same line, which arrived a few weeks since, brought about 100 for the same parties in Lawrence. Mr. Squire Farrand, an English factory operative, who was sent out by Messrs. H. H. and J. S. Brown, returned in the Bosphorus, and accompanied the emigrants to New Hampshire. The emigrants aro de scribed as a first-class set of passengers, clean, and very steady in their habits. The majority of the operatives came from Lancashire. The LaWralleo party were met at the wharf by several gentlemen from the mills in this city, who procured tickets for and accompanied them to Law rance. The operatives, it is said, are excellent workers, and were selected with great care. Another lot is expected. by the next steamer. AN EXECUTIONER WANTED.—The Havana papers contain a singular official announcement from the office of the Secretary of the Supreme Court, that for fifteen days proposals would be received from persons of color for the position of public executioner—that office being vacant. The successful candidate, if a free negro, will have a salary of $9O per mouth, and the usual hangman's fees ; if a. slave, ho must produce his master's permission to fill the office, and must lodge at the gaol, with only half the wages. COTTON GROWERS' ASSOCIATION.—It has been suggested, in the view of a short supply of cotton next year —and probably for years to come if its cultivation is not specially promoted in the South—that an organisation similar to that established in England, and known as the Manchester Cotton Growers' Association, should be got up in the Now England States, whose operatives, in con junction with the Southern planters, would do much to increase and bring back to its old productive standard the cotton growth in the South. COMMERCE IN THE SOUTII.—It is stated that the St. Louis and New Orleans tonnage, now over 40,000 ton; is 83 per cent. in excess of that of 1859. Tho Ohio river tonnage has increased 50 per cent. and the Missouri river 50 per cent. since that time. It is given as an on dil that Gen. John B. Hood, late of the Confederate army, is to lead to the altar the daughter of Gen. Preston. inu vro 114 f be ° st ortis tiog Liao le gIO ; pot [id , ,oo B ' er y 1,1 al l- item ou ch of ) Cr' igU- ~`
