Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches. At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that they are homeless and starving. The Manager, &c., receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each night numbers of young women, children, and orphans are, for want accommodation' refused admittance, and have to spend night a ft er n i g ht in the cold, wet, and sleet. To meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome, and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will be offered in your behalf. SUBSCRIPTIONS aro earnestly requested, and will be gratefully received by the Rev. D. GILBERT, D.D., No. 22, Finsbury-circus, E.C. DONORS AND SUBSCRIBERS TO THE REFUGE.

'We respectfully beg to ca ll your attention to our Patent Roughing Applian ces, ' which are now perfection, and effectually answer the purp ose of roughing without remov ing or preparing the shoes. The patentees' experience having taught them the use lessness of roughing when the snow is on the ground, in consequence of the snow clogging the feet, they have in troduced the Anti-snow Corroder, which consists of a metal plate so arranged as to resist the snow, thus prevent ing the foot balling (as it is termed). In recommending the Patent Roughs, &c., we submit the following among the many advantages : A great saving of time ; they can be instantly applied and as speedily removed. The shoes of the horse have not to be taken off or prepared. They may be with the horse at all times, yet only used When required ; in fact, they are so simple, a lad can fix them in a few seconds, r endering the horse perfectly safe on his feet, and the price is consi derably less than paid for thp old method of roughing.

This invaluable medicine always relieves in a short time the pain of these complaints, how ever acute it may be, effectually obviates injury to any i vital organ, and, if persevered n, will effect a cure when every other has failed. This fact is fully proved by the many testimonials from persons of every grade. No one subject to the above disorders should ever be without them, the relief after a few doses being almost incredible. Theso Pills are not like the generally advertised curatives for these maladies, which cause sickness, diarrhoea, pains in the head, and debilitate the constitution ; but, on the contrary, they not only speedily eradicate the complaint, but also strengthen and purify the system, a desideratum not to be attained byany other remedy extant.

Eight members of the Virginia Legislature waited yesterday upon President Johnson, and presented a resolution from the Virginian Assembly, proclaim ing the loyalty of the State, and endorsing the course pursued by Mr. Johnson. The delegates addressed the President, saying that Virginia will abide by the results of the war, including the abolition of slavery and the recognition of the necessity for the perpetuation of the Union. Towards freedmen the people of Virginia felt only kindness and sympathy. The President stood between the South and danger by defending the constitution from violation or innovation. The President responded that mutual confidence and forbearance must be exercised, and that the people of the South are entitled to representation whenever they send loyal representatives ; only loyal men should exercise political power. He be lieved that the right of the South to representation would soon be acknowledged. There were some foreign difficulties which would be settled when the Union was again complete and resumed its course of prosperity. Then no power on earth would wish to have a rupture with the United States. In the House of Representatives, Mr. Williams, the Radical member for Pennsylvania, alluded in severe terms to President Johnson, and declared that Congress should consider the question of re construction without reference to the President's theory on the subject. A man has been cultivating tea as an experiment in Savannah. The yield to the acre is from three to four hundred pounds, and the plants produce good crops for eighteen or twenty years. The growth of tea is not affected by dry or wet weather, or by storms, and insects will not molest the plants. The steamer Miami, which exploded on the Arkansas River, had about 250 passengers on board, among whom were 91 men of Company Thirteen of the Thirteenth United States Cavalry. The ac cident occurred at seven o'clock in the evening, just after supper, and while the passengers were assem bled in conversation around the stoves in the hall. The explosion was of such force as to rend the cabin floor asunder, and let every person down who was in the fore part of the cabin. Great numbers lost their lives by jumping overboard. The total loss of life is supposed to be nearly one hundred and fifty. Thirty of the soldiers were lost. The steamer Missouri, which exploded in the Ohio River, had one hundred and twenty persons on board, twenty-five of whom were passengers. The latest information from Evansville places the loss of life at about one hundred. The Missouri was one of the largest passenger steamers on the river, and was valued at $lOO,OOO. The New Albany Ledger says the steamer Dicta tor arrived from the wreck of the Missouri this morning, bringing the survivors, numbering 30. The total number lost was sixty, among them the captain's wife. The captain and pilot were badly injured. The Judiciary Committee of the United States Senate, in their report sustaining the legality of Hon. John P. Stockton's election as Senator from New Jersey, find no question to examine except that furnished by the fact, that a plurality, instead of a majority over all, voted for him at the joint meeting. They find further, such fact to be no im- I pediment, if accomplished by authority of law as in the case of many, perhaps a majority, of the mem bers of the national House of Representatives. In this case the constitution of New Jersey makes a joint meeting, a Legislature in itself, and while the laws of that State are silent upon the subject of a plurality election, they do not authorise the election PRICE 4d. STAMPED sd. of Senators by a joint meeting, whose uniform practice since the foundation of the Government has been to prescribe its own rules, by which at one time a majority over all would be required to elect at another, a majority over those present, and at another, election by acclamation. The conclusion is, therefore, that the meeting had the right to pre scribe the rule under which it acted, and that he was elected not simply by the will of those who voted for him, but by the will of the joint meeting which made the rule. The Secretary of the Navy has sent to the Senate the records of the Naval Board convened at Brook lyn in June last, to examine the claims for the cost of our war vessels above the contract price ; from which it appears that awards were made for thirty seven wooden double-enders, amounting to $614,974 ; for six iron double-enders, $356,841; for three gunboats, $100,853 ; for the Mianonom, $35,832 ; for the iron -clad propellers Milwaukee and Winnebago, $59,613 ; for the iron-clad Onondaga, $85,203 ; for six river and harbour monitors, $656,651; for the light draft monitor Neubuc, $36,533 ; for the monitor Comanche, $179,993, with $96,000 more for this last-named vessel claimed as cost by the contractors. These sums are all awards in addition to the amounts specified in the original contracts. It is now positively stated that Lieut.-General Grant and Major-General Sherman will visit Europe in May next. The claim of John Minor Botts for pay or wood used by Federal troops, amounting to $14,000, will pro bably not be allowed by the Government. The American Secretary of War has received from friends in England, principallyin Birmingham, $5,000 for the benefit of destitute freedmen. It has been turned over to General Howard's bureau. It is said that if the bill for giving Gen. Grant the rank of full General becomes a law, it will be followed by another bill conferring the rank of lieutenant-general upon Sherman and Sheridan. Admiral Farragut will likely be made a full Admiral, the Vice-Admiral in the navy being equal to the grade of Lieutenant-General in the army. Secretary Seward appeared on the floor of the House of Representatives on February 2, for the first time since the attempt on his life. Lieut.-General Grant has contributed the sum of $5,000 to aid in the erection of the Metropolitan Methodist Episcopal Church, Washington. The new coins bearing the legend "In God we trust" have been received at the United States Treasury. The receipts from internal revenue, during the last seven months, amount to $200,939,968.09. The United States gunboat Narcissus has been lost at sea, with her crew of 30 men. The Toronto people are expecting an attack on some of the frontier towns by the Fenians. Herschel V. Johnson has accepted the position of United States Senator from Georgia. Vera Cruz despatches say the French troops want o have a war against the United States. REVOLTS IN SPAIN.—The Correspondencia of Madrid gives a curious statistical table of the executions which have taken place in Spain in consequence of inter nal revolutions. The number amounted to 23 under Espartero, to 14 under Gonzalez Bravo, 92 under Narvaez, and 13 under O'Donnell. The Cincinnati Inquirer publishes the following extract of a private letter froth General Longstreot :—" I see that some of the public men of the North are still in clined to doubt our loyalty at the South, and to hold us in our present condition for further guarantees. What can we do to satisfy them ? We are willing and anxious to do anything that is wanted of us, provided we are allowed to get on some constitutional platform. Ido not suppose that there are a thousand men in the South who think diffe rently from myself on this subject ; and I have some doubts whether there are as many as that who would leave the Union to-day, if they were offered the choice to go out or return upon terms of equality." One year ago Miss Martha Baldwin, a graduate of Baldwin University, at Berea, Ohio, was elected to fill the chair of Professorship of the Greek and Latin lan guages in the Baker University, Kansas, which was char tered in the winter of 1857, and has been.in active opera tion seven years. It is au institution attended by both sexes, and Miss Baldwin has been the sole occupant of the chair above stated, and is said 'to_have glyen entire satis faction during the coll eg i a t e year deli has closed. Frederick Hudson, Esq., theVvell-inown manag ing editor of the New York Ilerald, has been compelled at last by his gradually failing health to relinquish the posi tion he has held for many years. He has received leave of absence for two years, and will spend the time in travelling, as the state of his health may warrant. It may be mentioned to the credit of Mr. Bennett, that ho did not part with the man who had served him so faithfully without placing in his hand a cheque for the full amount of the salary which he would have received had he continued at his desk. James Gordon Bennett was recently invited to deliver a lecture before a literary association at Princeton, N.J. Ho declined, saying that " his time was too valuable, and lecturing was only the business of literary vagrants." Immigration from Europe to the United States will, it is thought, this year exceed that of any previous one. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. There has been organised to this date in America 1,033 National banks, with an aggregate capital of 8110,000,000. The total circulation issued up to this time is $268,000,000. The total amount of bonds deposited by the National banks for security of circulation is $316,000,000. The amount of circulation that may yet be issued is $32,000,000, when the whole three hundred millions prescribed by law will be exhausted. The report on National Banks will show that New Eng land has rather more than her share of the circulation. Maine was apportioned $5,415,000, and has 60 banks, with an authorised circulation of $4,001,500. Vermont was ap portioned $2,989,500, and has 32 banks,with an authorised circulation of $5,025,745. Massachusetts was apportioned $23,794,000, and has 207 banks with an authorised circu lation of $64,809,633. Rhode Island was apportioned $4,794,000, and has 58 banks, with an authorised circu lation of $13,414,596. Connecticut was apportioned $7,221,500, and has 53 banks, with an authorised capital of $18,989,418. Few other States have been authorised to issue their apportionment, and the Southern States have as yet received authority to make but small issues. The question now is, shall these States which have been autho rised to issue more than their respective apportionments be deprived of that excess, or shall there be an addition to the $300,000,000 authorised for the benefit of the Sduthern States who need banking facilities ? (From Messrs. E. F. Satterthwaite and Co.'s Weekly Circular. By the Java we have advises from New York to the 6th instant. Considerable purchases of United States 10.40 Bonds and 7.30 Treasury notes had caused an advance of about two per cent., and 5•20 s were also quoted 1 per cent. higher, while some of the older descriptions were slightly lower. In Railroad Stocks the market generally exhibited a declining tendency, Eries and New York Centrals being especially weak, both having fallen $4 on large speculative sales. State Stocks and Railroad Bonds were neglected, and with the exception of Missouri 6 per cent., which had ad vanced $4, remained with little alteration.

" By this Endorsement, made by the Detroit and Mil waukee Railroad Company, heretofore the Detroit and Milwaukee Railway Company, upon this Bond, No. and its acceptance by the holder, it is mutually agreed that the principal hereof shall not be due or payable until the 15th day of May, A D. 1875, unless default is made in payment of interest on the same for sixty days after presentation of the proper coupons in New York, which (extending to said date) said Company has attached and promises to pay; but on such default the principal will beconlo due and payable. The mortgage to secure this bond remains un impaired, and no part of this contract shall be construed to alter or impair its priority or validity." The business in the London market for American securi ties has been on a limited scale, but with a tendency to improved quotations, especially in United States 5-20 Bonds, which close 68* to 69. For Illinois and Erie Shares there has not been any groat demand, but where buyers come forward higher prices are demanded, and they both leave off at an advance over last week, Illinois being last quoted 76f to *; and Eries 53 to 1. The low quotations for Atlantic and Great Western Bonds have brought jin some buyers, and we have to note an improvement of $1 in Pennsylvania Section first mort gage, and New York second mortgage.

George John Cavendish, of Lyne Grove, Chertsey, was adminis tered to in the principal registry, on the 16th inst., under £4,000 personalty, by Caroline Prideaux Ca vendish, the relict and universal legatee, there being no executor appointed therein. The will was made on the 10th of October, 1864, and executed on the 13th of the same month, the Hon. Frederick Caven dish being one of the attesting witnesses. The tes tator died on the 23d of October, 1865, at the age of 68. The will is very brief, the disposition of his property being contained in one clause, in words to the following effect :—" I give, devise, and bequeath to my wife all my property, real and personal, as I am confident she will dispose of it justly." The gallant admiral was the third son of the second Lord Waterpark, and entered the navy in 1810, and served with honour and distinction in the North American and West Indian stations and in the first Burmese war; was a deputy-lieutenant for Surrey; and had held the office of High Sheriff for that county in 1858. The will of Major-General John Fitz-Maurice, K.H., of Drayton-green, Ealing, was proved in the London Court on the 29th ult., by his son, John Gerald Fitz-Maurice, .Esq., the sole executor. The personalty was sworn under £14,000. The will is dated Dec. 22, 1865, and is attested by Geraldine Fitz-Maurice and Gertrude Fitz-Maurice. The testator died on the 24th of the same month, at the agt) of 72. lie—has .44stioseci ,-- Of Jig„„wholo of. his property, real and .perion'ili: S wife, Frances Maria Fitz-Maurice, for her own absolute use and benefit. The General entered the British Army in 1811, in the 95th Regiment Rifle Brigade, and was constantly employed, and obtained a good-service pension, as well as pensions for wounds received at Badajos and Quatre Bras, and was rewarded with the Waterloo and other medals and badges of distinction. The will of James Morrish, Esq., of Ellerslie, King's-road, Clapham Park, was proved in London, on the 18th ult., under £lOO,OOO personalty ; the executors being John P. Foster, Esq., of Wood street, Cheapside ; and Benjamin Darby shire, Esq., of Liverpool, merchant ; together with Thomas Buxton Morrish, Esq., the son ; the wife being appointed guardian of the infant children. The will is dated Dec. 21, 1865 ; and the testator died on the 25th of the same month, at the age of fifty-eight. He bequeaths to his wife all his furniture, plate, linen, china, glass, books, pictures, horses, and carriages, and all stores and effects in and about his residence and grounds, together with au immediate legacy of £l,OOO, leav ing her also a life interest in the residue of his real and personal estate.

There is a legacy to his sister, Mrs. Barnard, being the interest of £1,200 for her life, and the principal to her chil dren ; also an annuity of £4O to his wife's sister, Mrs. Eliza Mundy. The late Dr. Dauglish, who was distinguished for a peculiar process hi the making of bread, died intestate, leaving personalty to the amount of £25,000. THE GROWTH OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS.—TiIe Chicago Tribune gives some statistics of the growth of the State of Illinois during the war : The census for 1865 shows a remarkable increase in population, wealth, and industry during the past five years, in spite of the adverse influences of a war almost unparalleled in history. The population, from 1,711,951 in 1860, has increased to 2,123,606 —an addition of 411,655. The manufactures, from. an annual value of $ 57 , 580 , 887, have increased to of cs $62,159,809. Our contemporary is inclined to be lieve, however, that the actual increase of manu factures is far greater than would be repres en t e d isb yptrhoebs probable ble t that figures. at a The lar cens us ger c l ass 1860 articles ll beings e the United States, and that of 186 5 by the gain4by a S re tate enu i - t merated among ma nu f ac t ures by t he compilers of the United States than by those of the State census. The product of wool grown in Illinois in 1850 was 2,150,113 pounds ; in 1860 it fell off to 1,989,567 pounds ; while in 1865 it ha s risen to 6,106,120 pounds. Two causes Dave contributed to encourage this enormous increase in 'wool-growing, viz., the loss of t h e cotton crop and the high freights on agri cultural produce, which have tended to make it more profitable to graze and feed live stock of all kinds than to raise and ship produce. The value of the agricultural products is given by the census of 1865 at $87,073,565. As the United States census of 1860 furnishes us with the quantities, and not the values of agricultural products, no basis for comparison on this point may be derived from these sources. The value of the annual product of live stock of the State was, for 1850, $`24,209,255; for 1860, $72,501,225; and f or 1865, $120,724,726. In view of the fact that during these years the State sent to the war 258,217 men, whose terms of service were of such length that they amount to 212,694 men for three years, thus withdrawing about one-eighth of the entire population of the State, such an increase in the population, wealth, and industry of the State is little short o f mar vellous—the nett increase in the population amount ing to nearly twice the number sent to the war. ;uro in rt Fill o, and vught fity of isY be o inco, ve in OOP Y hOl f D l4)4' fra Tne i nviv id it,", inu , P id for pr. n and (icor e sul). ; - Coo° e, S t " l clic' .. icut• H of 11* pu b 1 llare' W IC' iSte ri ' ,f the bbei F/ - 14° 4 1111'5- dle1• ishq col- .~ Sir EIiZA GO' tooe l ;Ac . s )1 2 : ty 0'
