It seems as if we were fated never to be long without some disturbing intelligence from the Con tinent, and no sooner does one kingdom or state appear to be tolerably settled than forthwith we find that the calm was temporary, and the arrange ments anything but lasting. The news of GArtr- BALDI'S arrest will be received with surprise in many quarters, but such a result was not unexpected by all. For some time past there has been great uneasiness felt at the aspect of affairs, but it had been hoped that GARIBALDI would have shown more wisdom. Such, however, has not unhappily been the case, and the public will naturally turn with anxiety and curiosity to peruse the details of the affair. The Italian Government was perfectly right in the steps they took, for there was no other way out of the dilemma in which they were placed. Prompt and vigorous action alone could reinstate matters, and it would never have done to have allowed treaties tobe violated, and the whole order of things disturbed through unmeaning violence, and the efforts of deltid;l men. General GARI BALDI has been taken to Florence, and thence to the fortress of Alessandria, in Pie imont. No doubt can possibly exist in 01IC'S mind as to the dangcruus nature of the task which he had meditated, for his acts and language were all to significant of his intentions. On Sunday he quitted Arezzo, at which place he had been addressing the people in most extravagant language. It was not then known in which direction his steps tended, but it was very generally understood what his object was. He meant to enter the Papal territory, and, indeed, he was about to do so, when his capture was effected. Great confusion had already been created by the activity and dexterity of some of his agents, and the police in the Papal territory had made several arrests, in consequence of the suspicious signs which they observed. Preparations had been made which show how greatly the fears and the doubts of the autho rities were excited,...for they concentrated nearly all their forces near the capital. It is very fortunate that the Italian Government should have used such diligence, for thereby they have in all probability prevented greater confusion, and more extensive losses ensuing in all directions. Saturday, the 28th, was fixed for the grand coup to take place, and hence the stoppage has not been much too soon. The Official Gazette of Florence of last night says that the agitation by which it has been sought "to impel the country to violate international stipulations, far from calming down, has become stronger and more audacious." Accordingly the Ministry resolved to fulfil its duty and keep its " pledged word," after having uttered a frank and decisive declaration. No one can blame them for doing this, but, on the contrary, they deserve praise and encouragement for the manner in which they have executed a painful and irksome duty. A large number of volunteers took the road to the frontier during the last few days, where, adds the Official Gazette, depots of arms had been made, and where other arms followed them. General GARI BALDI took the direction of the same frontier by way of Sinalunga, and henceforth the meaning of the movement was all too plainly revealed—the Government finding itself in the position that either it must allow treaties to be violated, and the honour of the nation sacrificed, or else it must, at any cost, protect the majesty of the law. The Ministry, in this emergency, decided upon the wisest course to adopt. Those volunteers who were on the road to the Roman frontier were desired to return to their homes, and General GARIBALDI was summoned at Sinalunga to retrace his steps, and upon his refusal he was con ducted to Alessandria. As might be expected some excitement was created in consequence of these pro ceedings, and a large crowd paraded Florence last night, shouting "Release Garibaldi;" but tranquilli. y was quickly restored upon the troops being called out. There are good grounds for hoping that the capture of GARIBALDI will put a stop to the move- , ment altogether, and, if so, little or no harm wi:l i have been done. The most likely explanation of this strange affair is that GARIBALDI was mistaken in the estimate he formed of his enter prise. There was nothing to justify his attempt either in a political sense or upon the grounds of the success that lay before him, and the lovers of order and justice must rejoice that he has failed so signally. At the same time one feels regret that so distinguished a man should so delude himself, and listen to the suggestions of ill-informed and mis chief-making persons. Let us hope that one good may eventually result from this untoward circum stance, and that GARIBALDI may learn more wisdom for the future, and that his friends may persuade him to abstain from making any more such un warrantable attempts. Rumour in America is busy with the PRESIDENT'S future course. The political barometer is evidently held to indicate an approaching crisis of some kind, partly from the resolute action lately taken by Mr. JOHNSON, and partly perhaps from the gradual change in public feeling. The Nezv "ark Herald says that it is reported in Washington that the PRESIDENT intends to prorogue the present Con gress as an unconstitutional body. This would bring matters to a crisis, and would of course array against the Government the whole strength of the Radical party. Mr. JOHNSON would no doubt be able to bring forward valid reasons in his own behalf. The representatives of a given number of States claim to represent the whole nation, and legislate for the unrepresented States, not only without being autho rised to act for them, but in open defiance of their wishes. This faction of a Congress is not content with carrying on the business of the State after the fashion of ordinary times. Its members are subverting the whole form of national government, increasing the popular burdens, and pursuing a course of policy which cannot fail to leave serious traces on the history of the nation. Under their auspices in a time of peace the sword of the general has been allowed to outweigh the panoply of civil law, and men have no longer been able to rely on the ancient safeguards of civil liberty and public right. It may well be suggested, therefore, that the opinion of the whole nation should be taken on such proceedings, and that a body which is clearly unconstitutional should be arrested in its course until some better guarantee is obtained that Americans are prepared to convert their cherished Republic into a military despotism. It was said also that the PRESIDENT had deter mined to recommend that the closing of the regis tration in the South be deferred until the Ist of October, or sixteen days after the mail left New York. This would allow time for the working of his amnesty proclamation, and would inconsequence completely change the proportion of black and white voters. It is evident that in any case the Government intend vigorously to uphold the civil supremacy proclamation. A writ of Habeas Corpus was granted in Lagrange, Tennessee, under it, and Secretary BROWNING has transmitted the proclama tion to his subordinates, with instructions to con form to it. It is high time that the dignity of the law was vindicated, since under the recent manage ment there have been continual riots and disturb ances, and these if put down by the strong hand of military power produce in their turn serious conse quences. If the PRESIDENT can succeed in a bold move, and displace the present Congress from their ill-gained and ill-used power, he may be able to inaugurate a new and better era than America has witnessed since the war. The North German Parliament does not seem to be getting on very well, what with one thing and another. The discussions that took place concern ing the address in reply to the Speech from the Throne partook somewhat of an angry character. Count BISMARCK protested against the proposal that was made relative to the mention of the " release of Luxembourg," declaring that Luxembourg presents the same territorial relation as before, and that Prussia had only yielded up the right of gar risoning the fortress. Can anything be more absurd than this ? And it shows that nothing can make this crafty statesman allow that he is in the wrong, or that any of his plans are failures. As for his observation that the " neutralisation of the fortress compensated for the relinquishment of the right of garrisoning it," all we can say is that if this is the truth it seems very strange that so much fuss was made about the matter. Count BISMARCK made some unmeaning platitudes about the length of time which it took to settle the affairs of North Schleswig, which are not very likely to impress those who can believe the news. It seems really quite a farce to find that this Parliament should profess to foster and further the cause of liberty while all the time the Berlin authorities are under mining all freedom, and acting in the most abso lute manner. A blank space appeared the other day in a Cologne paper because the powers that be objected to the propo3ed insertion which had been sent from Electoral Hesse, and did not meet the approval of the censor. This is a notable in stance of freedom, it must be admi ed, but in stmuces abound in all directions of the tyrannous nature of Prussian policy. From Hanover we learn ...that in consequence of the continual refusal of CrEcIRGE to accede to the Prussian proposals fo r settling his affairs the Prussian Government in ter nds to regulate them of its own accord, whether or not the assent of the KING be obtained. This is most unfair, but who will prevent it ? There never was a greater outrage on good sense and consistency than .for people to persist in talking about the bene fits that have been derived from the success of Prussia last year. Sooner or later this truth must be known ; but meanwhile it would be just as well if people would keep their eyes open, and judge for themselves as to the nature and meaning of the transactions which are taking place around them. The promoters of the Grand Reform fete at the Crystal Palace have a busy time of it. Probably few of those who undertake such an affair are at all aware, at the outset, of the amount of patience and perseverance that will be required before their labours are completed. There is always some in evitable annoyance, or disappointment, or delay. As in the case of GOLDSMITH'S memorable dinner party, it is always the "JOHNSON and BURKE" of the party who will not come; the medio crities, whose places can easily be filled, are always prompt to accept the invitation. It was not to be expected perhaps that in the case in question Mr. GLADSTONE would assist at the celebration of what most people consider his rival's triumph, and accordingly no great surprise need have been excited at the meeting of the Fête Committee last evening by the reading of a letter from Hawarden, in which Mr. GLADSTONE politely thanked his would-be hosts, and declared his sincerity in the cause of reform, but adhered to his former announcement and declined to take part in the banquet. Mr. GLADSTONE, in writing this, takes care to let us know that he considers the Reform Bill incomplete, and he says he shall labour in the same spirit as heretofore to settle all that remains unaccomplished. We hope he will be a little less imperative and fault-finding in the completion of his self-imposed task, else his followers will not appreciate his efforts. However, it would have been scarcely in keeping with Mr. GLADSTONE'S ordinary conduct to have identified himself with a movement of this kind, and the committee are now trying to console themselves for his absence by the hope of welcoming Mr. BRIGHT. What the member for Birmingham's decision may be we cannot yet tell, but in the meantime we should advise the Committee to be less anxious about securing particular stars, and be content with aiming at a successful popular celer bration. The real glory of the fete will be in the achievement of a Parliamentary Reform, and in the heartiness and goodwill with which it is celebrated. It must derive importance from numbers ; not from individuals, however gifted or remarkable. The managers of the Crystal Palace are happily dis posed to be propitious, and have promised to bring all their resources to the aid of the committee to enhance the attractions of the fete. Reform, wherever else it may be wanted, is cer tainly not needed in the fairy world of Sydenham, and Reformers will be sure of having something pleasant to look at while they are celebrating the progress of Reform. At any rate matters have changed for the better since this time last year. Instead of organising processions Reformers are arranging fetes ; instead of discuss ing the points of the Charter, they are considering a bill of fare, while the compound householder has vanished in the spray of the illuminated fountains Ministers and members were bandying mutual recriminations last autumn, while the professed Reformers were loud in their complaints, and the ordinary mortals were inclined to think, between one and the other, there would be no Reform at all. Let us hope that this pleasant change in the politi cal atmosphere may be as lasting as it is agreeable. CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. (F ROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Tuesday Evening. Prince Napoleon has returned to Paris from Pranging. his seat in Switzerland. The Queen of Holland is expected in Paris in a few days from London. Two Paris papers, the Liberte and the Journal de Paris, assert positively that negociations have taken place between the Cabinets of Paris and Florence with a view to provide for the eventualities which might arise from any attempt of the Garibaldian party against Rome. The object of these negocia tions is to allow of the occupation of the Roman States by Italian troops.. This occupation is said to be agreed upon in principle, but there is an im portant difference of opinion between the two Cabinets in regard to the length of time during which the occupation should last. The French Government is in favour of temporary occu pation only, whilst the Italian Government is of opinion that it would be useless unless it be per manent. The Cabinet of Florence is also desirous to establish maritime depots in the Roman ports. At all events no decision has yet taken place upon the subject, as the French Government will not enter into any engagement until all the important points connected with the question shall have been submitted to the consideration of the Pontifical Government. A letter from Florence, dated the 20th instant, says :—" General Garibaldi is still here, but he is inflexible and immutable in his resolution, well con sidered, to make an attempt upon Rome, contrary to the advice of his most faithful friends. The Deputy,Crispi has arrived. There have been several conferences at the Riccardi palace." On the other hand, the Pungalo of Florence says that Garibaldi left that city on the 19th for a villa in the neighbourhood. He has removed from Florence with a view to watch the opportunity for making a sudden attempt to pass the frontier at some point which is not well guarded, whilst the troops will think that he is in another direction. Salomone, one of the commanders of the four Gari baldian legions, left on the 18th for Aquilla. He will make some attack in the direction of the Abruzzes. Acerbi and some other well-known Garibaldians have disappeared. The Perseveranza of Florence has some alleged intelligence of a still more decisive character. That paper assures its readers that Garibaldi has resolved not to march immediately upon Rome. The men who take the most active part in calming the excite ment of Garibaldi are Crispi and Zanetti, the Pro fessor Zanetti who, in 1862, discovered the bullet in Garibaldi's foot. The Movimento says that Florence is in much alarm, and that some important event is expected. 1 mention all these contradictory reports to show the confusion which prevails upon the subject. In the best-informed quarters in Paris it is believed that Garibaldi will not, under present circumstances, attempt the foolish project of making a movement against the Pope. At all events the Italian Go vernment is well prepared for him, and such a movement would prove a miserable failure. One of the letters from Florence states that - cing Victor Emmanuel intends to pay a visit to Paris. The latest information from Italy is that the Govern ment was sending reinforcements of troops to various points. The Constitutionnel gives some information about Garibaldi, the truth of which, however, it seems to doubt. It says, that before M. Itattazzi issued the manifestation of the Italian Government he sent fur Garibaldi and had a long interview with him. The Minister is supposed to have endeavoured to induce Garibaldi to abandon his projects, and it was only after finding that he was determined not to do so that the declaration in question was issued. Queen Marie Christina is expected in Paris, where, Just as I was about to close my letter I learnt that information has been received officially from Florence that Garibaldi has been arrested at Asiva lungs by order of the Italian Government, just as he was about to enter the Pontifical territory. An ordinance has been issued by the King of Prussia dissolving the Chamber of Deputies. The report of the Minister of State, which accompanies this ordinance, mentions as the motive for this mea sure the extension of the territory of the State, and the transformation of Germany, in consequence of which the present Chamber can no longer represent the entire people. The Grand Duke, heir of Russia, has arrived a Vienna from the Crimea, on his way to St. Peters. burg. 711 E ARREST OF GARIBALDI. Pales, Sept. 24 (Evening). The Patrie of this evening says that a telegram has been received from Florence, dated yesterday, announcing that Garibaldi left Arezzo on Sunday evening, and that his whereabouts was not known. A telegram received this morning adds that he had gone to the Papal frontier. Great excitement pre vailed in Florence. Orders had been sent to different quarters to effect his arrest. The same journal states that great animation reigns at Toulon in consequence of the news from Italy. Contradictory rumours are in circulation there. According to some, there was a question of sending a squadron of evolution to watch the Roman coast, and the order for its departure would shortly be sent to Ajaccio, where Admiral Gueydon is sta tioned. The Minister )f War was shortly expected to arrive at Toulon, and every arrangement had been made for embarking troops if necessary. The Patrie adds that it is impossible for it either to affirm Or deny these statements, but it is certain that several ships are ready to sail, and that the transport Intrepide has received orders to arm immediately. _ FLORENCE, Sept. 24. Garibaldi was arrested yesterday evening at Sinalunga, near Sienna, by order of the Italian Government. He was conveyed by special train to Florence, and from there to Alessandria. At the time of his arrest he was preparing to enter the Papal territory. Evening. This evening's Official Gazelle says :-- " The agitation by which it has been sought to impel the country to violate international stipula tions, far from calming down, has become stronger and more audacious. After a frank and decisive declaration, the Ministry resolved to fulfil its duty and keep its pledged word. The Ministry had con vinced itself of the fac:, that during the last few days a large number of volunteers had taken the road to the frontier, where depots of arms had been made, and whither other arms accompanied or followed them. From Florence and Arezzo General Gari baldi took the direction of the sa me f ront i er by way of Sinalunga. Tho object of this movement was thenceforth only too evident. Action had really commenced, and therefore there arose for the Go vernment the unavoidable necessity either of allow ing that treaties should be broken, i n v i o l at i on o f the public faith, the authority of the law, and the interests of the nation, or of keeping it s wor d , an d ias performed its duty. anyprice th e ma j esty o f there, were notified t m h a e in i t a a w in . ing Th in e vi A o i l i a n te at y t i Volunteers who were on the road to th e R oman frontier, or had already arrived to return to their homes, and those who refused were conducted thither.

A large crowd paraded the city this evening shout ing " Release Garibaldi !" Theand tranquillity has bee T nre troops ato red. were called out, THE LATE EMPEROR MAXIMILIAN'S PROPERTY.— "We learn from Vienna," says the Avenir National, "that the settlement of the Emperor Maximilian's succession offers very great difficulties. The delegate of the Austrian Emperor, M. do Kraus, and of the King of the Belgians, M. Teach, have not been able to come to terms, and the latter has quitted Vienna without having succeeded in establishing the basis a•f an arrangement. A suit between two Sovereign, families seems inevitable. The principal question seems to be whether the Arch• Duchess Charlotte,widow of the deceased, or the Arch-Duke Charles, his uncle, shall be recognised as residuary legatee. In re ference to the same subject, the Frerndenblatt of Vienna gives the following details of the last disposition of the Em peror Maximilian :—" His Majesty left two wills. The first was executed at Miramar shortly before his departure for Mexico, and was written and signed with his own hand. The Empress Charlotte was constituted residuary legatee, souvenirs being left to nearly all the members of the Im perial family. All the gifts which the Emperor received in his childhood are left by this testament to those who had formerly presented them. The Emperor speaks with touch ing gratitude of his mother and the happy influence which she exercised in the formation of his heart and character. His wife is also, on his part, the object of tender remem brances. The second testament was drawn up at Quere taro, not long before the Emperor's execution ; like the former, it is in his own handwriting. This act was drawn up under the supposition that the Empress Charlotte had died in Europe, and the Archduke Charles was named re siduary legatee. The other dispositions are not modified in any f, rm." COMPULSORY EDUCATION.—At the annual meet ng held at Edinburgh, on Saturday, of the Educa- tional Institution cf — Scotland (a body composed of teachers of all classes), it was unanimously resolved to approve au overture from the local association of Kirk caldy, and to transmit a petition to Parliament in term-4 thereof, praying the Legislative body in its wisdom to devise measures to secure, by making education compul sory if necessary, that every child iu these realms should be educated. The suggestions of Mr. Alison, Kirkcaldy, who brought up the subject, were the following : —" That a duly-certified extract of the birth of a child should bo the evidence of ago; that all children of five years should be registered; that duo publication of all the children at tending school should be made ; that 300 attendances should be the minimum of a school year; that a fine equal to the school fee should b 3 imposed on parents neglecting to send their children ; that continued neglect for three years should bring into play the power of the sheriff's compulsion ; and that certificates should be granted to such as carried out the higher branches of education by a prolonged attendance," ' however, she will make but a short stay previous to her intended journey to Madrid. The Moniteur of this morning does not contain a line of interesting news. Rather a serious accident has taken place upon the Paris and Viicennes Railway, between St. Maude and Bel Air One of the trains got off the line, and a passenger, M. llerbeck, was so mutilated that he died soon after being taken to the hospita 1 Several other passengers received injuries, but there is only one case of a serious character. An acci dent has also occsrred upon the Orleans Railway in consequence of an iron bridge near the Ivry station having given way. Three of the company's servants were mum injured. It was not a passenger train. The accidait happened to the tender. According to the Correspondence de Berlin the union of the south with the north of Germany is now only a question of time and form. It is the question of fora With which for the moment Germany is nos fully occupied. It was said a short time ago that at Berlin there was no desire to see the Southern States enter too quickly into the Confederation of the North, because there was a fear of their too liberal spirit. If such fears really did exist they must now be dispelled, for the journal quoted pr)mises all sorts of guarantees " for their automony, of which they are very justly jealous, but which they have reason to think is not irreconcilable with the political unity of Germany." They have only to present to the Confederation their postive demand of accession, and the demand once received every effort will be made to solve the problem submitted in a manner calculated to please everybody. LATEST INTELLIGENCE, (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) ITALY. FLORENCE, Sept. 25. The Opinione of to-day, speaking of the arrest of Garibaldi, says it considers it probable that he will be sent from Allesandria to Caprera if he expresses a desire to go there, and abandon all idea of any expedition which may compromise the State and the authority of the law. ROME, Sept. 24. The report that the ofTicers of the Antibes Legion had sent in their resignations is declared entirely without foundation. HUNGARY. PESTII, Sept. 25. A general meeting of the evangelical delegates took place to-day, in which a reconciliation was effected between the different religious fractions.

Boniface, upon the arrest of Garibaldi, says : —" In acting as it has done, freely and sponta neously, the Italian Government has not only given evidence of its good faith, but also a proof of its strength, since it has not to fear any revolutionary passions, and can dominate and overpower Garibaldi. Such an act will naturally greatly rejoice the friends of the cause of order and civilisation. All will ap plaud the vigilance and energy of the Italian Cabi net, and we shall regard this occurrence as a new guarantee for the maintenance of general tran quillity."

Brownlow's Militia, while searching for con cealed arms in Jackson, Tennessee, killed a white citizen, when a riot ensued. The civilians by last accounts were arming for the purpose of attacking the militia, who are alleged to have been commit ting great excesses. Federal troops have gone to the scene of the disturbance. Trouble is apprehended at the approaching elec tion for the State Convention in Maryland, in con sequence of the determination of the negroes to vote. It is expected the National troops will be re quired to preserve the peace. The New York Herald says that it is rumoured in Washington that President Johnson intends to pro rogue the present Congress as an unconstitutional body.

DAMAGE TO A RIVER STEAMER.—Yesterday morning the Queen of the Orwell steamer lost her masts and funnel through driving under ono of the arches of London Bridge. She had dropped from her moorings off the Custom House with the flood, for the purpose of taking passengers on board at Fresh Wharf, when, on nearing the bridge, it was found that some defect had occurred to the engines, which refused to move. The anchor was imme diately let go, but the strength of the tide carried the vessel through the arch, bringing down her masts and funnel, which fell on the deck. Fortunately none of her crew received any injury. The steamer has since Pro ceod9d to Woolwich to make good her damages. THE PUBLIC HEALTH: (From the Registrar-General's Return.) In the week that ended on Saturday, Sept. 21, 4,466 births, and 2,828 deaths were registered in London and in twelve other large towns of the United Kingdom. The annual rate of mortality was 24 per 1,000 persons living. The annual rate of mortality last week was 19 per 1,000 in London, 21 in Edinburgh, and 24 in Dublin; 20 in Bristol, 28 in Birmingham, 29 in Liverpool, 35 in Manchester, 33 in Salford, 28 in Sheffield, 37 in Leeds, 40 in Hull, 34 in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and 22 in Glasgow. The rate in Vienna was 25 per 1,000 during the week ending the 14th inst., when the mean temperature was 7 deg. Fahrenheit higher than the same week in London, where the rate was 21. The lower temperature which prevailed during last week influenced the mortality in diarrhoea. The deaths referred to this disease in the ten large towns, which in the two previous weeks had been 507 and 577, declined to 436 last week. Of the annual death-rates from all causes per 1,000 in the week, the mortality from diarrheas was 2 in London and Bristol, 4 in Newcastle, 6 in Liverpool and Salford, 9 in Sheffield, 10 in Birmingham, Manchester, and Leeds, and 12 in [lull. In both Sheffield and Hull the fatality of diarrhoea was greater than in the previous week. A considerable decrease, however, was shown in nearly all the other towns. In London the births of 1,121 boys and 1,094 girls, in all 2,215 children, were registered in the week. In the corresponding weeks of ten years, 1857-66, the average number, corrected for increase of popu lation, is 2,092. The deaths registered in London during the week were 1,138. It was the thirty-eighth week of the year, and the average number of deaths for that weak is, with a correction for increase of popula tion, 1,238. The deaths in the present return are less by 100 than the estimated number. The deaths of 106 children and 8 adults from diarrhoea were registered last week ; 10 cases occurred in the west, 31 in the north, 7 in the central, 25 in the east, and 41 in the south districts. In the week which ended 6th July the deaths from diarrhoea were 51 ; and in the ten following weeks they were 115, 170, 196, 217, 189, 200, 196, 226, 198, and 203 ; therefore the decrease in the present return is considerable. The deaths of 12 persons from cholera or choleraic diarrhoea were registered last week ; one in Chelsea, one in Pancras, one in St. Giles's, one in Clerkenwell, one in Shoreditch, one in St.George in-the-East, three in Mile-end Old Town, one in Bow, one in St. George, Southwark, and one in Camberwell. In the Strand Union Workhouse, on the 15th September, a labourer, aged 26 years, died of cholera Asiatica. The medical officer reports that the deceased, the day before his death, drank freely from the water of a well used only for washing down the yard. In the corresponding week of last year the deaths from diarrhoea, were 98, and from cholera 150. Forty-four persons died last week from typhus, which is most fatal in the south districts of the metropolis. Six deaths from typhus and four from scarlatina occurred in Newington. Fifteen deaths from smallpox, 15 from measles, 31 from scarlatina, three from diphtheria, and 16 from whooping cough were recorded. The daughter of a coachman, aged six years, died on the 18th Sept., at 5, Cambridge-mews, Regent's Park, from " suu stroke (24 hours)." The deaths of four persons who were killed by horses or carriages in the streets were registered. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 30.035 inches. The barometrical reading increased from 29.76 in. at the beginning of the week to 30.21 in. on Wednesday, 18th ; decreased to 29.97 in. ou Thursday, 19th ; increased to 30 . 05 in. on Friday, 20th ; and was 29.90 in. on Saturday, 21st. The mean temperature of the air in the week was 51.8 deg., which is 1.7 deg. below the average of the same week in 50 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisher). The highest day temperature was 68.3 deg on Thursday, Sept. 19. The lowest night tem perature was 41.2 deg. on Tuesday, Sept. 17. STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, Sept. 24.—The market has been dull, and is again getting a good deal depressed. In shipping yarns sellers report that they have had to make a concession of id. per lb. Home trade yarns are also very slow of sale, and id. to id. per lb. lower. For cloth the demand has fallen off, and no doubt the market is much quieter in comparison with last •sv eck. At the same time manufacturers show a good deal of firmness. The nominal advance of last week may now, however, be considered as abandoned. In some instances a concession would be made to command sales. Tbis is less the case in goods suitable to the Eastern markets, be cause manufacturers hold contracts yet which give them no pressing necessity to seek for new business. The suspension of Messrs. Walker, Hamilton, and Co., of Manchester and Glasgow, is announced. Their liabilities in Manchester are said not to ex ceed £lO,OOO. Messrs. John Slagg and Co. report of to-day's cloth market :--" During the last few days there has been a marked falling off in the de mand both for India and China goods, but as makers are pretty well engaged there has been little decline in price. To-day our market is dull, and the business limited. Though we cannot alter our quotations, prices are decidedly in favour of the buyer." CARDIFF, 23d.—The steam coal trade continues to present a more cheerful aspect, and the exports to several of the foreign markets are being pushed for ward with increased vigour. The quantity shipped at Birkenhead keeps about the same, but the efforts made to induce merchants and colliery proprietors to send their coal to that port will, it is expected, ultimately lead to a considerable increase. For house qualities there is a fair coasting demand, and quotations are tolerably well maintained. In the Rhondda Valley the colliers are rather difficult to manage, turn-outs being often resorted to under the most trivial excuses, and this has led to the in troduction of a number of Cornish miners. In the iron trade rails are selling somewhat more freely on foreign account, and the United States once more are becoming better customers. As regards home business, makers believe that the ensuing winter months will witness a degree of revival, and this belief is strengthened from the fact that several rail way companies will shortly have ample funds in hand to make purchases. The tinplate market con tinues tolerably firm. LEEDS, 24th.—The markets in the cloth halls to day have been of an ordinary character. The demand has not been very active for any class of goods, but tweeds sold most readily in the coloured cloth hall, while in the white cloth hall witneys and beavers were in most demand. A moderate amount of business was done in the finer qualities of hair lists, but not much in ordinary plain cloths. There is not any change in prices noticeable. ROCIIDALE, 23d.—There was a moderate attend ance of buyers in the flannel market to-day, and fully as many transactions took place in both plain and fancy flannels as last week. Manufacturers are fairly employed, and the stocks are not much in excess of what is usual at this season of the year, though the trade has been rather languid for some time. There is no improvement in the Yorkshire goods trade, and manufacturers are rather contract ing their rate of production. Wools are firm in price, but manufacturers buy little beyond their immediate wants. The Price of Gold. The quotation of gold at Paris is about at par, and the short exchange on London is 2M. 22,c. per £1 sterling. )n comparing these rates with the English Mint price f 100. per ounce for standard gold, it appe.rs that ,old is about 2-.oths per cent. dearer in London than in Par: e. rl►e gouree of exchange at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is about 10:►; per cent. At this rate there is no profit on the importation of gold from the United States. SUICIDE OF A LUNATIC.--Forty inmates of the Eiminstor (Dove) Lunatic Asylum, accompanied by three warders, were out for a walk during the past wia,k, when one poor fellow suddenly jumped into the canal and was drowned.

The Clonmel Chronicle gives the following accoun t of the recent escape of a Fenian prisoner from Clop" mel Gaol :—" The prisoner, when arrested under 3 warrant from the Lord Lieutenant, gave his nan 3e , as Charles Ausborne, b u t l a t er i nqu i r i es di scov ered his real name to be Laurence O'Brien. He had been in the police force, was three years stationed as a sub-constable in Kildare ; he is stated to have been a man of great activity and intelli" gence. After leaving the force, he emigrated W America, where he remained until the early Par t of this year. Since his return to Ireland sus' picion rested upon him, and there appears to be good reason for believing him to have been deeply implicated in the Fenian movement. He wen t through Fethard, Clournel, and Cashel in company with General Burke, of B a llyh urs t notoriety. 13e, ,". his proceedings were clo se ly wa t c h e d , an d at l e ngth he was arrested, discharged for want of sufficien t proof, and re-arrested soon after under the Habeas Corpus Suspension Act, and committed to Clonme l Gaol. O'Brien, a most troublesome prisoner a° through, was confined in a cell from which it was 113 " turally believed escape would be impossible. 11 ! walls of this cell are so me sft. or 6f t. t hi c k . Ligh t : is admitted by a na rrow open i ng, protecte d wit' double bars of iron, set transversely and imbed' ded with lead into heavy blocks of stone. l b ° outer door was of wood, sheeted and cased with iron; the inner, a heavy iron gate, both well faS' tened outside with double locks and strong bolts and bars. Into this cell the prisoner was locked on Wed" nesday evening last ; and at 6 o'clock next morning it was discovered that O'Brien's cell was untenanted . The prisoner had succeeded in effecting his escap e in the prison dress. The lower half of the heavy iron grating of the window had been cut through in part with a file or some other instrument, the re' maiuder being forced by some means from its leaden socket, while one of the side blocks of limestone had been broken in two, and the loosened part removed. The iron grating and broken masonry were found in th e ce ll, w i t h t h e pr i so ner's hat, which was filled with pieces of cement arid limestone; also, a stout bar of iron skilfully ellarP . ened at one end and tied round with cloth to Pro tect the hand, and to lessen the sound while work ing.. This bar was cut off from the iron suppor t of the metal stove pipe, which the prisoner had found means to procure or remove from its place at the end of the corridor while passing to his cep' There were found in addition some two or three pieces of rod iron, finely pointed ; a rude iron ban' trier, a knife, and a small coil of rope unopene d ' From one of the remaining window bars a thin rope doubled hung loosely, reaching Bft. down, outside, the window itself being fully 30ft. from the wal k below leading to the main entrance. By this mean s the prisoner is supposed to have lowered himself t° a level with the iron gallery, or passage from th e pressroom to the drop,' and, having been draW 3 across, if he had an accomplice, or, which is jus t possible, having swung himself over the passag, ° gallery—in which one of the sheets of the prisoner S i bed was found, with the e n d s d ou bl e s titched together—he scaled the railing, crossed the roof of the gatehouse barefooted, and got upon t he parapet of the outer walls of the prison, from Wh ich it is believed he descended into the street, some 1 8 f t ' or 20ft. by means of another rope, which was als ° found hanging from one of the embrasures." Conviction under the Factory Act. At the Leicester Town-hall on Monday gr. C. Girardot, Sub-Inspector of Factories for the district, charged Messrs. Foster and Burnley, hosiery manu facturers, with neglecting to produce the registe r book, as required by the Act, when he visited their warehouse on the 30th of August. On 3 satisfactory explanation being given, the summons was withdrawn.—Sarah Benford was then charged with wilfully obstructing the said inspector in O n discharge of his duty on the aboVe date. Mr' Girardot stated that on the 30th ult. he went to Messrs. Foster and Bunney's warehouse, where he saw the defendant, who had the superintendenc e of one of the upper rooms. As he entered the room he saw a woman hold up her hand, as though i t were a signal to some one. This circumstanc e aroused his suspicions, and he opened a side doo r which led into a small lumber room adjoining. I n this room he found three children--Alice Lewitt, aged 9 ; Susan Iliscock, aged 10 ; and Ada Marlow/ aged 12, all concealed under a counter. On making inquiries he found that none of these girls had been seen by the doctor, nor were entered on the register kept at the warehouse. When he began to qmS' tion the children he was frequently interrupted hi the defendant. One of the children, Abe ° Lewitt, was called before the magistrates, and In reply to the Town Clerk said when the inspecto r was coming up the stairs Mrs. Benford told her and the other two girls to go into the next room and get under the counter. The defendant said the reason she told the girls to go under the counter was that they had only been in the place a few days' and having neglected to have them registered she was afraid her employers would be angry with her . The magistrates fined defendant £4 in each case, or one month's hard labour, making a total of £l2, or three months' hard labour. Ann Lewitt, mother of Alice Lewitt, was then charged with neglect ing to send her child to school during the wee k she was employed at Messrs. Foster and Bon ney's. It was proved that the girl had not been sent to school as required by the Act, and after the visit of the inspector to the warehouse her mother went to the schoolmistress and told her to ent er " sickness" as the cause of her little girl's absenee• The defendant stated to the magistrates that s'l'° had to keep the girl at home half each day to nurse the baby, which was ill, and she was unable to )? stay at home herself. On defendant expressi n g her sorrow for what she had done, time Inspeete r . withdrew the summons, but told defendant t hat nothing but the illness of the child herself could I) , ° taken as an excuse for her absence from school, that if she went to work one day in a week she inttt attend school half each day during that week. DEATH FROM APOPLEXY.—Mr. W. Payne held an inquest yesterday at St. George's Workhouse, on view of the body of James Durant, 44, cabdriver, late of 15, Wick ham-place, Borough.
