IRELAND. DUBLIN, Sept. 11. The subject of University education, which has such an important bearing upon the future of this country, is again brought to the surface by the publication of an able report of the president of the Queen's College, Galway. Mr. Berwick is not content with merely furnishing a series of tabular statements as to the condition of the College, in which dry details are given with the precision of a bookkeeper's account, but he entersinto a discussion of the great principles involved in the controversy between the advocates of unsectarian freedom on the one hand and denominational exclusiveness on the other. He applies these principles to the facts which be reports, and deduces from them the inference that the united system is not only the best in theory, but is proved by experience to be the most in accord ance with the feelings of the people, who have sup ported it amid great difficulties. Ile earnestly de precates any change of policy, and enforces his ar gument by pointing to the temporary check recently given to the progress of the Colleges, and attribut ing the injurious effect to the apprehension enter tained that the principle of their constitution was about to be enfringed by the proposed new charter. The statistics which he gives are highly interesting. He states that in the 15 years that elapsed from the opening of the Colleges to the adoption by the late Government of the new policy, 3,330 students entered and attended lectures. Of these 957 were Episcopalians, 938 Roman Catholics, 1,197 Presby terians, 58 Wesleyans, 18 Independents, and 162 of other denominations. It appears from the calendar of the Qieen's University, which has been carefully revised, that the total number of students was even greater, being 3,436, the denominational proportions being probably the same. If this be not united education, as he observes, it is difficult to know what the term means. He mentions a remarkable process of the harmonious operation of the system—namely, that " among so many students of so many religious persuasions not a single discussion on the score of reli gious belief has ever occurred in any one of these colleges, nor has the fiercest opponent of these insti tutions ever hinted a suspicion that the conscientious opinions of any student have been wounded, far less his religious opinions tampered with." Since the intention of sectarianising the Queen's University was adopted, in the short period of two years a marked decrease has taken place in the entrances and the attendance at lectures. These facts he re gards as evidence of the manifest wish of the laity to support institutions free from all sectarian bias, and of their emphatic disapproval of the new policy. The mere suspicion that a change was to be intro duced has had a prejudicial effect on all the colleges, but especially that of Galway. Notwithstanding the peculiarly disadvantageous circumstances in which it was placed—in a poor province almost destitute of classical schools, and in a town whose population had decreased from 23,787 in 1851 to about 15,000—the Galway institution had been proportionately even more successful than those of Belfast and Cork. The number entering and attending lectures had trebled in previous years, but in the session of 1865-66 the entrance fell off in one year from 70 to 49, and the attendance on lectures from 169 to 194. In the three colleges there has been a marked decline in the same period. In Belfast the attendance on lectures have diminished from 405 in session 1864-65 to 38i in session 1866-67 ; in Cork from 263 to 230 in the same period, and in Galway from 169 to 135. In the entrances the decline has been still more preci pitate—in Belfast from 135 to 105, in Cork from 90 to 76, and in Galway from 70 to 44. He com bats the assertion that the falling off is attributable to the expected loss of a supposed monopoly. He scows that the Queen's University possesses no ex clusive powers of conferring degrees, and that the students of any educational establishment could obtain them from the London University, without the inconvenience of leaving their own halls to be examined. Again, the diminution has not been confined to any particular persuasion, but all have retired from the colleges when threatened with sectarian leaven. The decrease in the entrances in two years has been in the following proportions : —27 Episcopalians, 19 Roman Catholics, 27 Pres byterians, and two of other denominations—in all 75. In attendance on lectures it has been :-26 Episcopalians, 50 Roman Catholics, 18 Presbyte rians, 11 of other denominations—in all 105. He adduces as a still more decisive refutation the state ment contained in the letter of the rector of the Catholic University to Mr. Lowe, that the number of students in residence during the last session was 152, whereas in his inaugural address in 1864-65 the same authority stated that 210 students had at tended lectures during the preceding year. A large proportion, perhaps two-thirds, of the students attending lectures in the Catholic Uuiversity, are, he says, students of the Cecilia-street School of Medicine, which is recognised by the Queen's University, on the express ground that it is not sectarian. He observes— " Surely if any institution founded on sectarian principles could obtain support it was that Univer sity. Presided over by men whose station, office, abilities, and virtues must command respect, adorned with a staff of professors who would do honour to any University, possessing ample facilities for obtaining University degrees, placed in the heart of the metropolis, with the countless advasta.ges which such a system implies—that metropolis containing a population of which 200,000 are Roman Catholics —have the numbers resorting to its teaching de monstrated on the part of the Catholic laity an attachment or an aversion to denominational education ?" The annual shows of the agricultural societies o: North Wexford, Tipperary, and Carlow were held ' yesterday. The first-named which was held in Gorey, did not present as much evidence of progress as might have been expected from the care bestowed upon it by the local gentry. There was no increase in the number of entries, compared with last year, and no appreciable improvement in the quality of the stock, which, however, is generally good in this district. The farmers for whose benefit this society has been established do not co-operate with it as heartily as they ought. Another circumstance which had a depressing effect upon the show was the absence of the chief proprietor of the town. The other societies were more successful in their shows. In Tipperary the quality of the stock exhibited was better than last year, especially in the farmers' classes. There was an excellent display of sheep and calves, affording proof that the farmers are availing themselves of the inducements offered by the society for improving the breeds of stock. In Carlow the entries were not so numerous as in former years, owing to the backward state of the harvest, which is now engrossing attention, but the quality and con dition of the animals exhibited, especially by the small farmers, were highly satisfactory. This society has some points of special merit. It offers encou ragement for tillage as well as stock farming, and endeavours to promote habits of neatness, which are much required, by offering premiums for the best kept farms and cottages. The members dined toge ther last evening in the Club-house, Carlow—Mr. Bruen, M.P., presiding. _ _ A deputation from the harbour commissioners of Belfast waited upon the Lord Lieutenant yesterday for the purpose of inviting his Excellency to be pre sent at the opening of the new floating and graving docks, which had been recently added to the sub stantial proofs of progressive prosperity of which that enterprising town is justly proud. Mr. Lanyon M.P., introduced the deputation, who were graci ously received by his Excellency, and October 21 was appointed for the ceremony. his Excellency will meet with a reception worthy of the spirited people of Belfast, who are anxious to testify that they share the feelings of respect with which he is regarded throughout the country. He will be enter tained by the commissioners at a grand banquet on the evening of the ceremony, and on the following evening will be the guest of the citizens. Lord and Lady Russell and Lord William and Lady Agatha Russell arrived in this city on Monday evening, and proceeded yesterday morning to Kil larney. Some waifs of renianism still attract momentary attention. A *report was tvlezraphed from Derry r last evening that "a most suspicious-looking craft" had been observed at Bunerana, that she seemed to be about 600 or 700 tons burden, and had first been observed near the mouth of Lough Swilly. No alarm has been excited by this mysterious piece of information. RAILWAY INIELLIGENCE. EAST LONDON. An extraordinary meeting was held yesterday, at the Terminus Hotel, Cannon-street, for the purpose of disposing of certain forfeited shares. The CHAIRMAN (Mr. W. Hawes), in opening the business, said that when be called the meeting he expected that his duty would have required of him very few observations ; but a circular which had been issued by Mr. W. Hartridge, giving notice of an amendment, rendered it necessary to go at some length into the position of the company. He had in his hand the original prospectus, and was enabled to declared his adherence to everything stated in it— not a very usual thing for the chairman of a company to be able to do in these times, when everybody was almost as anxious to be out of joint-stock compa nies as two years ago they were to be in them. Mr. Hartridge quoted the following sentence from the prospectus —" The cost of construction is fixed be yond doubt by arrangements concluded with Messrs. Brassey and Lucas and Wythes, for a contract at prices which will make the total cost of the works considerably less than the amount allowed in the Parliamentary estimates." WeU, it was perfectly true that the railway was being made by Messrs. Brassey ; and it was being made in a manner which was as creditable to them as it was satisfactory to the directors. What, however, Mr. Hartridge really meant by this quotation was to call attention to the circumstance that this was what was called a "contractors' line," and that the contractors had an undue influence over the board. But that was not the case ; the directors were in reality per fectly independent of the contractors. He had mentioned this fact to Mr. Hartridge, and his re ply was very singular—" So many directors have said, and the public did not believe them." He trusted, however, the meeting would believe him when he stated that the contractors had no influ ence at the board ; that they had never nominated a single director ; that every director had been a member of the board before the contract was made, and that every member of it retained every shilling of his interest. (Cheers.) As to the cost of the construction, he had every reason to repeat his belief that the £1,866,000 of original capital would be sufficient to do that which he had contemplated doing, and to open the works to a point which would secure them a revenue at a comparatively early period. The only portion of the line as to which the cost was not ascertained was the bit from the London Dock to the station of the Great Eastern Company at Shoreditch, and the spur northward to the Metropolitan line. As to revenue, he repeated his previous statements, that the experience of the Metropolitan Company justified the anticipations of the prospectus ; besides which it must be recollected that since those calculations were made the earnings of the Metropolitan had risen from £740 to between £9OO and £l,OOO per mile. He, therefore, adhered to his previous statements with all the proper per tinacity of a man who had been convinced by long thought, and who believed that what he stated was true. (Cheers.) As to the finance of the company, he asked for it the most searching review ; only he asked that due allowance should be made for the altered circumstances of the times. Nothing, in fact, could be more simple than their finance. They had raised so much money—there were no deben tures, no Lloyd's bonds, no securities except a sum borrowed from their bankers upon the land sales. How, then, had the necessity for this meeting arisen ? In 1865, following the example of larger companies who had acted on the advice of those eminent solicitors, Messrs. Baxter and Messrs. Burchell, they had asked for subscriptions on scrip certificates. Now scrip was entirely outside the Act of Parliament ; and they had no power to sue the scripholders for their calls. The only course they had left them if they wished to avoid tedious, expensive, and uncertain litigation, was, therefore, to forfeit the unpaid shares and to reissue them. This they proposed to do in the first instance to the shareholders, and if the shareholders would take up the whole of them there would be no loss to the company at all. Of course, if the general public took up any- portion of them a loss would, pro tanto, be sustained by the shareholders. Anyhow the shares must be re-issued before the borrowing powers of the company could be exercised, and without the exercise of those powers the line could not be com pleted. Then Mr. Hartridge drew attention to the fact that Messrs. Chadwick, M'Kenna, and Adam son had been advertised as the financial agents of the company. That was quite true. The board had in the first instance applied to a number of financial companies, the highest of which had asked the modest sum of £250,000 for undertaking the responsibility of bringing out the scheme. The lowest asked £130,000 or £140,000, besides certain privileges. Messrs. Chadwick's bill, after all, was only £27,000, or hardly more than a fifth of the lowest sum asked by the financial companies. No doubt it was a large item, but it had been printed in reports and passed meeting after meeting. Mr. Hawes, in conclusion, moved a formal resolution re specting the forfeited shares. In answer to SHAREHOLDERS, Mr. ILAWES added that the shares forfeited were 22,795, on which £76,000 had been paid. It was proposed to allot them at 11 discount; in other words, the £2O share would be treated as if £ll had been paid up. This, which was a discount of 35 per cent., followed the precedent of the successful ope ration recently effected by Mr. Laing. After some remarks from Mr. T. E. KNIGHT, approving of the course proposed by the board, Mr. HARTRIDGE said the chairman had used the same cleverness and dexterity as he had shown on former occasions. He had told the meeting a great many things they knew, but had not given them information they desired. A large number of share holders had not paid their calls ; but he believed a vast number had written for shares that had been refused. He should like to have some explanation of the circumstance. On the whole be required a full inquiry, and if the board would grant that he should be relieved from the necessity of stat ing things that might not be pleasant to hear. The CHAIRMAN declined the proposal. Mr. HARTRIDGE, resuming, said he had prepared a speech setting out some matters of detail, but he would reserve them for another occasion ; and he would now merely move the amendment of which he had given notice :—" That the recommendations of the directors be not adopted ; that this meeting be adjourned, and that three proprietors be appointed a committee (with power to add to their number), to confer with the directors and to inquire into the present financial condition of the company, to ascer tain the circumstances under which certain scrip shares were originally allotted and subsequently forfeited for non-payment of calls; to consider the terms upon which it is proposed to dispose of such shares, and to exercise the borrowing powers of the company, reporting thereon at an early meeting of proprietors. Also to make inquiries and report an opinion upon the postponement of some of the works authorised by Parliament, and upon the amount of capital required for the future purposes of the com pany, and generally upon any matter affecting the interest of the proprietors. A SHAREHOLDER having seconded the amend ment pro forma, a brief discussion ensued, at the close of which The CHAIRMAN said that if the resolution were agreed to he had authority to subscribe for £28,000 of the re-allotted shares ; and he would undertake that the quota of the directors should be taken up by themselves or by their friends. The money which the resolution would enable them to raise would carry the works to Shoreditch, and if the Great Eastern were not able to complete the line to Broad street their powers would lapse next year. This company would then apply to Parliament for leave to take them up, and they would acquire on most advantageous terms the land which had been bought and cleared by the Great Eastern. The amendment was then put, but no hand ex cept Mr. Hartridge's was held up for it. The origival resolution, which p:orided that the forfeited shareholders pro rata, must be accepted in writing by the Ist of October, must have a deposit of £1 per share paid on them at that date, and a call of 13 on the 10th was then agreed to. A second resolution, authorising the borrowing of £466,600 on mortgages, bonds, or debentures, was also carried, and the proceedings terminated with a cordial vote of thanks to the chairman and directors. BLACKWOOD AND THE HON. D. A. WELLS. The Hon. David A. WELLS has taken the trouble to show up in a letter to the Times the gross mis statements and errors of an article in the July num ber of Blackwood' s Magazine, entitled " The American Debt, and Financial Prospects of the Union." English people will be glad to receive from a Com missioner of the Treasury Department of the United States, information which may be regarded as official, and which must be of deep interest both to Great Britain and to many nations on the Continent. Remarks in Blackwood on the United States are scarcely worth answering. Old Ebony is the stereo typed Tory, who recognises in the great Republic his most dangerous enemy. He never loses an op portunity of inflicting an injury, and he scruples little over the means. Whatever the subject, whether financial, political, commercial, or social, it is handled to this end. Like a burglar attacking a safe, it is examined in front, in rear, at the sides, and chisels, crow-bars, gunpowder, applied where the defence is weakest. Finance is the point most assailable, as credit is so easily injured, and when injured at once damages the object of enmity. Political and social misrepresentations only gratify spite, and keep alive a feeling of hatred. By de picting American immorality, corruption, political delinquencies, and the demoralisation of society, another object may, however, be gained. These pictures point morals, as well as adorn tales. The chief moral is—beware of Republicanism, behold the result, and ponder before you follow so pernicious an example. Although the stereotyped Tory can by such means inflict but little injury on the United States, he fosters and confirms the English dread of Republicanism. When he wants to injure America he attacks her financial stability. There is nothing more easy than to throw discredit on the truth of Treasury Statements. It is not by attack ing the figures that this is best accomplished ; but by insinuating that these figures only represent a portion of the truth. Blackwood is unfortu nate in having made something more than vague statements. The magazine committed itself to a few figures, which Mr. WELLS exposes so completely that it might reasonably be expected we would have no more articles in Old Ebony on American finance. But those who expect such a result are sanguine people, who cannot be taught by experience. Blackwood will be quite ready to begin again in next number with a fresh manu facture of spurious figures. It matters little to Old Ebony that he is exposed, considering that he has been accustomed to such exposure time out of mind. He keeps hammering away as he has hammered beyond the memory of the oldest inhabitant, having by custom and prescription obtained the right which Tories recognise as having the force of law. Mr. WELLS points out an amusing blunder. Mr. A. STEWART for 1865-66 paid an income tax on $4,000,000. For 1866-67 that tax was paid only on $BOO,OOO. This circumstance Mack/rood misconstrued to mean that that merchant paid duties to the amount of $4,000,000 on the manu factured fabrics of England and France he imported during that year, the last of the war ; but in the first year of peace he paid only $BOO,OOO, or one fifth of his former contribution. Mr. WELLS shows that the house in question actually paid into the United States Treasury, in coin, upwards of $10,000,000, instead of $BOO,OOO, on account of duties on its importations, the writer having con founded a statement, which went the rounds of the papers, of the income tax on the profits of the New York merchant, with his import dues, and used this example to show how heavily the customs dues of the United States were falling off. Mr. WELLS is impressed with the contradiction between the universal expression of the English public, as signified to him, of their desire to maintain the most friendly and intimate relations between the countries, with the constant misrepresenta tion of public writers in England, more especially with regard to the financial position of the United Stated. On this the Times remarks that the leading American journals them selves furnish the most alarming intimations. This statement may be true in fact, but it should be qua lified by the explanation that such articles have in America a mere political significance, being directed at a department of the Government, or perhaps written, as they sometimes are, to affect the markets.

It is no wonder that JOIIN BULL gets puzzled over American politics. " Why," he exclaims in wonder, " are not the Democrats the T C e o r n i s e e e rv i a n t a iv n e g s ur o a f te th a e nd Un ta it k e e d t S h t e ates fir ? et Here, s t t h ep e great towards manhood suffrage. There the most able leader of the Conservatives, as the writer calls Mr. GEORGE H. PENDLETON, openly advocates a method of paying the National Debt which the Republicans (to use the correspondent's words), with some reason, characterised by one word—Repudiation." Mr. PENDLETON'S plan is this. Fund the whole debt, and issue therefor 6 per cent. Bonds ; as fast as these mature meet and pay them in greenbacks or paper currency. To carry out this plan $2,000,000,000 must be added to the paper currency now in circu lation. What the country thinks of such schemes is sufficiently shown in the steady rise of these securities. Americans well know that they of all nations could least allow their credit to be damaged. They are aware that they have more undeveloped resources than any Other country ; that they can invite and em ploy foreign capital to the greatest advantage ; that with this development will be generated a power that will enable them with ease to liquidate the national indebtedness—in one word, that their most paying policy is not only to be honest, but to c e o re n d c i e t d e i r n e g . e,v,ieTnhdeopeubetpfulle ofpo points inb e s f c a r v u e p n u r l o e u f s h eir so, United States," the S tandard correspondent adds, " will ere long demand -1, that the Federal Bonds scrupulously be subjected to taxation like other property ; and 2, that the present rate of interest be reduced." The object can be attained in the same way as Great Britain secured it, by exciting general con fidence. When the world believes that 5-20's are equal in security to Consols t he rate of interest will be equalised. The question is s im p l y one of belief in the ability and honesty of the Governments to discharge their obligations. Few doubt the ability of the United States, but many doubt their honesty, and this feeling is kept alive by these writers. Those who are m st injured by these unscrupulous attacks are the holders of the bonds, ono-fifth of which belong to Europeans. Not only are the bonds unduly depressed, but an uneasy feeling of insecurity is excited, and the investor is thus made to suffer both in pocket and person. The 7 lines exemplified in an article on Wednes day, after the above was written, the criticisms of which Americans complain. Abandoning the un tenable position taken by the writer in Blackwood it bases the depreciation of American Bonds on the bad faith shown towards the creditors of the indi vidual States of which the Union is the aggregate, and on Mr. HAINES' report, who, as one of three chosen by the Secretary of the Treasury as most conversant with the theory and practice of finance, recommended that on the redemption of the bonds, the tams should be maintained in form, L t h oug h nullified jjl act, Thug, while the Times THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, SEPrEMBER 12, 1867. acknowledges the incompetency of the writer in Blackwood to discuss American finance, it endea vours, by a side blow, materially to aid that writer in his intention to damage American credit, knowing well that no community had yet made so strenuous and successful an exertion to discharge debts as the United States. In discussing American finance every unfavourable incident is recalled, while no allusion is made to the unanimous and individual efforts of the American people to uphold their national honour and integrity. We freely grant that such plans as that of Mr. PENDLETON is cal culated to impress, most unfavourably, foreign nations. If ever a man made poNtical capital at the expense of the country that mau is Mr. PENDLETON. By the issue of greenbacks in payment of Five-twenty Bonds be would not only get rid of all interest, but also of the principal of the debt. Although a greenback is a promise to pay 21 grains ,of gold by the United States for each dollar marked on its face, yet at this moment it takes 140 of such promises to buy a hun dred of such quantities of gold. What number would it require after Mr. PENDLETON'S plan had come into operation ? The fact is that greenbacks for doing away in value. This w i s o uld the sh p n p e l m y e b ra e ti c a n n p i r h o i p l a e t s e a d l with the national debt, and the result is that the party which advocates the infamous scheme is denounced over the Union as having reached the lowest depth of political depredation. It should not be forgotten that such schemes have for generations fcrmed the political capital of charlatans, mounte banks, and financial quacks of all sorts in Great Britain, and will to the end of the chapter. No one, therefore, ought to be surprised that a like condition of affairs in the United States generates a similar class of politicians ; the real point being— how such schemes are received by the people. Of this there can be little doubt, and Mr. PENDLETON and the Democratic party will be made painfully aware of what Americans think of repudiation be fore the Ohio elections in October come off.—Anglo- America n 7 lines. EMIGRANTS WANTED IN VICTORIA. (From the MtMourne Argus.) We have been exporting large quantities of wheat to England ; some of our squatters are making pre parations to boil down their sheep for tallow, in the absence of a market for the meat; bread is selling at from sd. to Gd. the 41b. loaf, beef and mutton from 3d. to Gd. per lb., potatotes at £3 per ton, and ex cellent wine of colonial growth at from 4s. to ss. per gallon ; local production in all that concerns a sup ply of the necessaries of life is considerably in excess of local consumption ; and the progress of the colony is literally arrested by the want of immigra tion. These facts cannot be repeated too often, nor impressed too strongly on the minds of our country . men "at home." That there should be at one end of the world a British community so thickly peopled as that population is incessantly encroaching upon the means of subsistence; that a million of paupers are maintained at the public cost; that deaths from cold and hunger are numerous and frequent ; that children of tender years are driven to labour in the fields in gangs, and are brutalised or destroyed in the process ; that, in every walk of life, competition is so intense that the applicant for employment is a suppliant and not a negotiltor ; and that simulta neously with this state of things in the mother country there should be one of her dependencies in the South Pacific as large as England and Wales, as fertile as Sicily, and as healthy as Nice, craving for the superfluous capital and labour of the parent State, but craving in vain, does appear an inexplicable anomaly. We count our population by hundreds of thousands only, while the country is capable of maintaining millions, with a wide field for the enterprise of the restless and the adventurous in the neighbouring colonies and in the innumerable islands of the great Pacific. What a mere handful of people has accomplished in Victoria, chiefly since the year 1851, may be accepted as an earnest of what may be effected by still larger numbers, actuated by the same spirit of industry and energy in the time to come. We have built and conferred municipal institutions upon upwards of sixty towns and cities, contain ing 70,000 habitable dwellings, more than 300,000 souls, and rateable property of the estimated value of £20,000, 000 . O utside of th eir limits are the rural shires and ro ad districts t o the number of 100, with 54 , 000 houses, 253,000 inhabitants, c a ha n lu d ur ec. rateablechurches e s For aud h t chapelse property spiritua l have been erect e d ; an d f or the wants exceeding vof th e people 1,700 education of the young upwards of 700 common schools have been opened, upon the rolls of which the names of 70 , 000 children are inscribed. Some of the most importan t towns of t he colony are brought into il direct and 3,000 miles o f te l egrap h w i re , and 525 post - of fices furnish the colonist with every mrai es of railway coca menication with th e sea b oar d b y 271 ay requisite facility for the transmission of his corre spondence.

If he has a career to make, nowhere are the obstacles to success so few in number, and so easily surmountable, nowhere are the opportunities for self-advancement so numerous and so inviting, as in a new country, with a large area of unculti vated territory, and with resources of which all that is known encourages the belief that those which yet await development will exceed in variety and value the most sanguine expectations of the enthu siast. To capitalists, to fundholders, and annui tants, to farmers possessing either a moderate amount of money or a family of grown-up eons, to sober and industrious artisans and labourers, with a general aptitude for anything, and a pliant adapt ability t 3 the circumstances and requirements of a new country, Australia offers inducements for settle ment and assurances of reward such as are presented, we will venture to say, by no other possession of the British Crown. We have shown what has been done within half the lifetime of a single generation ; and this will be repeated on a grander scale, tionately enlarged results, during the next 8 or 10 years, if the mother country will annually send us 40,000 or 50,000 men to eat our superabundant sup plies of food, to assist in the cultivation of our waste lands, to multiply the number of our industrious, and to continue and extend the work which has been so pros p er ously commenced. Need we remind our fellow-ccuntrymen in England that it is not thesecolonies alone which are benefited by emigration. The parent State reaps from it ad vantages not less substantial than those which it confers upon the dependency which receives the efflux of population. There the emigrant has been a competitor in the labour market, has divided with another man the loaf which was scarcely adequate for the support of either, and has been occasionally an unwilling burden on the community, or on his brother operatives ; but here he becomes one of their beat customers, he assists to augment the supply of the raw materials which form the staple of various British manufactures, and his improved circum stances enable him to purchase commodities which were beyond his reach at home. Thus every man, woman, and child in Victoria annually consumes manufactured articles the produce of the United Kingdom, of the value of about £l2, while our im ports from other British possessions are equivalent in value to £6 per head of our population. And since there are branches of manufacturing industry which can only be successfully prosecuted in coun tries possessing cheap capital, cheap labour, great mineral wealth, and matchless means of intercom munication, like England, it follows that our sup plies of certain articles of general consumption will continue to be drawn from thence for many years to come, and that, therefore, the growth of our numbers by immigration implies the extension of one of the largest and the best markets to which the present State directs her commerce. Nor will English statesmen require to be informed that the Australian immigrant retains his loyalty to the Throne, his at tachment to the national flag, and his pride in the power and grandeur of the empire, " by the long wash of Australian seas." He neither relinquishes his nationality nor helps to build up the greatness and wealth of a rival, and possibly a hostile nation, like the emigrant to the United States. He remains true to the parent stock and to the characteristics of the old race. He merely discards some of his in sular prejudices, and gradually disencumbers his mind of the feeling of intolerance inculcated in or inherited by it ; and, concurrently with the widest political and religious freedom, he finds himself in the enjoyment of material comforts and of an amount of solid prosperity unattainable at home, and neither sufficiently prized nor frankly acknow ledged in the colonies. THE ALABAMA CLAIMS. The publication of the further correspondence on the Alabama claims, which followed on the advent to power of the Tory Government, will clear away some misapprehensions both in England and the United States. Her MAJESTY'S present Ministers are prepared to submit the claims to arbitration ; and in the event of the decision being against them to adjudicate those claims by a mixed commission. The readiness of Lord STANLEY thus to meet the points in dispute appears to have been unexpected by Mr. SEWARD, who had evidently no intention of drop ping a weapon he was so well qualified to handle, and which at any moment he could use to embarrass and annoy the British Government. He, therefore, skilfully introduced another question which he knew would for the moment settle the controversy. He insisted on the whole correspondence being sub mitted to the umpire, which brings in the question of the conduct of the British Government in so early recognising the Confederacy as belligerents. The despatches show to the American people that Great Britain is prepared fairly and honourably to meet any reasonable claims they can advance to compen sate for injuries sustained, if, in the opinion of an arbiter, remissness could be proved in allowing the escape of cruisers from British ports. The case has been fully stated on both sides, Mr. SEWARD handling his arguments with the most consummate tact and ability, while allowing himself the fullest latitude. Whatever may be the intention of the Washington Secretary of State, he will be upheld only by the American people in demands they consider truthful and fair. It may suit politicians to keep up this grievance as an aid in their canvassing schemes, but those do but scant justice to the mass of the nation who attribute to them complicity in any such intention. Americans wish to settle and have done with this dispute, as they have no desire to imperil the growing kindliness of their relations with their kinsmen to satisfy the crotchets of Mr. SEWARD, or to enable that statesman to make a grand display of his argumentative powers. The world is responsible for the injury inflicted by the premature recognition of the Confederacy as a bel ligerent. Every maritime nation was equally culp able, and this part of the controversy therefore should be conducted with Christendom, unless Mr. SEWARD elevates England into the champion of the world, or intends her to answer f.or what was certainly the sin of all nations. It is probable that Mr. SEWARD'S career in office is drawing to its close, and it would well become him before retiring from power to settle a question the details of which he so fully understands, and which in the hands of a bungler might hereafter be productive of serious evil. We trust that the reply of the PRESIDENT to the address of BLACQUE BEY, the Turkish Minister, when presented to him on the 23d August, is not significant of a hostile feeling on Mr. JoiDisoN's part towards Great Britain. If it be, his enmity will be the fitting reward of the support extended to him by English writers, who have overlooked all his shortcomings, and put the most charitable construction upon his acts. He said :—" The American people appreciate and are happy in all cases to acknowledge acts and demonstrations of amity and friendship. Our traditional sentiments towards France, Russia, Holland, and Switzerland are proofs." Why should Great Britain be omitted ? As usual in such cases, the controversy has drifted into all manner of irrelevant channels, and the further it proceeds the wider becomes the scope. The ad vantage that England would derive from a successor to Mr. SEWARD would be that the controversy might be commenced between two men who had no part in the original dispute. Both nations are getting heartily tired of the interminable subject, and it cannot be profitable even for filling up the voluminous pages of our daily contemporaries during the present dull season of the year.—Anglo-American 7 imes. The Management of Public Companies A board of directors is chosen, or, in the first in educe at least, usually chooses'itself. A board, the well-known action of which form of association is to bring into prominence the worst features of each individual member and to cast his better qualities into the shade, is usually a compound, inconsistent, and irresponsible artificial personage that under- takes the management of a large business, with the principles and details of which he is necessarily un acquainted, and deals with a large capital of which it owns an almost infinitesimal share. The real in- terest of the proprietors, and the " policy" of the directors, are thus materially dissociated, and very frequently opposed. It will be remembered that the men most anxious for the dignity or for the re muneration of directors are for the roost part those who desire thus to fill up the time because it is not better employed. The anatomy of one board might throw light on the structure of scores. Here you have the respectable country gentleman, engaged for his name and for the weight that ho may add to his less known colleagues,— anxious to keep name and weight, but seeing little further over the green cloth spread before him than it is convenient for the secretary to allow. Then comes the active, shrewd, director on, or some how or other closely connected with, the Stock Ex change. His influence goes to decide measures that may be expected to affect the price of shares, to tide matters over a crisis, or even to bring on that shock which " must come" before affairs can mend. Then follow two or three gentlemen, whose names are down on many lists, and who are continually consulting their watches and their pocket-books in order to be in time to earn the next guinea at some other board. You may sometimes add to these the obstinate and .stupid director, who may in other re spects be a most estimable man, but who is accustomed to make a great hole in the available working time of the Board by insisting on an explanation of what is patent to everyone else, though sometimes he is not without value. Among these, or besides these, as secretary, director, manager, or what not, may be found the real wire puller, the man who, unseen and irresponsible, moves the whole ; and who, if he were the known and responsible manager, avowedly and equitably paid for his services, and responsible, at least iu character, for the con. duct of the undertaking, would give it the best chance of success. With a machinery such as this how can we be surprised to be told one day of a company which, " having taken legal advice," has " suspended the proceedings" to which they led their shareholders to look for sol vency; another, of one which, having paid a dividend of 51 per cent. upon eight millions of capital in 1854, has since that time spent another eight mil lions without producing a shilling of additional profit in the shape of returns; in short, from day to day, of the scandalous results of the most imbecile or most wanton mismanagement. A famous French financier is said to have gained the first capital of which he made such active use by the simple expedient of annexing to the list of deaths which were chronicled in a local newspaper with which ho was connected the name of the medical attendant on the defunct. So intolerable, after a time, did the attention thus excited to the results of the practice of his prey become, that a large purse was made .up to buy off the nconvenient chronicle. A shareholders' manual, giving in a, legible print the names of directors of failing and faltering companies, pointing out the date of their services, and giving adequate indica tions of the state of capital account, of dividend dis tributed, and of dividend earned, from year to year, might be of service to the next crop of eager pur chasers of " something really reliable." A better and more business like plan has been adopted by another large company, which, while involved in the struggles and the expenditure of the time, has kept to some extent out of the slough which has engulfed its most active rival. The chairman hav ing intimated that the affairs of the company were now in such a state that he could leave them with out peril, and that he must attend to his own in terests, the shareholders very wis.Ay secured the services of a man who seems to know what he is about, and to carry out what he put poses, by voting him an annual salary of £2,500. A step of this kind is true economy. The true cry for the mass of helpless shareholders,—the only point to be kept, in the first instance, before every half yearly meeting, is, " Wanted, a Manager."—Builder. 7ARL VANE AND HIS WELSH TENANTRY. On Saturday Earl Vane returned to his Welsh seat, Plas Edwards, near Machynlleth. His lord ship, accompanied by Countess Vane and Lord Sea ham, arrived by a special train on the Cambrian Railway (of which company his lordship is chair man), and at Oswestry, Welshpool, and other sta tions, salutes were fired in honour of the event. On the arrival of the train at Machynlleth his lordship was met by the principal inhabitants of the neigh bourhood. The station was decorated with flags, evergreens, &c., and loud cheers of welcome greeted the Vane family on their return to their Welsh estates. When the cheering had subsided the rector of Machynlleth read the following address :—" To the Right Hon Earl Vane.—We, the inhabitants of the town and neighbourhood of Machynlleth, beg to offer our hearty congratulations to your lordship on your return from St. Petersburg, where you had the distinguished honour of representing our most gracious Sovereign Lady the Queen on a mission of friendship and goodwill to his Majesty the Emperor of Russia—a mission calculated to strengthen and perpetuate the peaceable and friendly relations now happily subsisting between the two great countries. It is also a matter of felicitation, apart from this gratifying proof of the confidence reposed in your lordship by our beloved Sovereign, that it has been your good fortune to win the esteem and respect of the Emperor, which his Majesty has deigned to mark by conferring on your lordship the order of St. Alexander Nevsky, which is the highest but one in the empire, and only given on rare occa sions. We cordially welcome your arrival this day at your residence here, and pray that you and Lady Vane may live long to enjoy the honours you have received." Earl Vane said that on his arrival at his maternal home in the north he had felt overpowered by the reception he had met with there from those with whom his earliest days were spent ; and if he felt a difficulty then, how much more must he feel it when he had to return thanks to those whom he was not connected with by ties of birth, but by those of a nearer and dearer character. The kind ness they had exhibited towards him should not be forgotten, and in days yet to COlll3 he hoped to look back with feelings of the :greatest pleasure to the principality, associated as he was with Wales by one who was nearest and dearest to him. He need hardly tell them that it was a great pleasure to him to be accompanied on his mission to Russia by his wife and eldest son, and it was a curious coinci dence that he (Lord Vane) had in 1836 accom panied his father to St. Petersburg, when the same age as Lord Seaham was now, and it was a plea sure for him in 1867 to be welcomed by some of the familiar faces of 1836. His reception in Russia, from the Emperor downwards, had been most gra tifying. It was true that they went at rather an inopportune time, when most of the nobility were at their country eetates, but many of the principal families remained specially in St. Petersburg in order to do honour to the mission sent by her Ma jesty, of whom he was the unworthy representative; and he trusted that the entente cordiale now existing between the two countries would never be dis turbed. (Loud cheers.) His lordship was then escorted to his residence by the friendly societies in procession. MR. DISRAELL o-- In the new number of the Revue des deux Mondes M. Forcade pays the following tribute to Mr. Disraeli and the Tory party, apropos of the pass ing of the Reform Bill. He says : Mr. Disraeli displayed singular skill and courage —the skill of being ever ready to avail himself of the co-operation of the House in the manufacture of the Bill—the courage of placing the electoral franchise on a broad and simple basis, unmutilated by arbitrary electoral qualifications, the damnatory feature of all previous proposals of the Whig Government and the Liberal party. Whoever shall have resided in a borough for one year, and paid the poor rates, shall have a vote. The Whigs, in their projected additions to the constituencies, were ever bent on dividing the electors into cate gories. They wanted, so to speak, to take the cream of the working populations by a franchise sufficiently high to show that the voter was an industrious artizan, and comparatively well off. More liberal than the Whigs, Mr. Disraeli rejected this arbitrary classification, and by the generality of his principle has established an equitable equality among all voters Will the Reform Act pro duce any important changes in the Government of ? The most prudent shake their heads ; ,toid Derby, in the House of Peers, like the carica turist in Punch, spoke of taking " a leap in the dark." The " dark " here is not so very dark ; and the leap is not likely to be a dangerous one. A few hundred thousand voters more or less in a country which is in full enjoyment of all in dispensable liberties will not in any way modify the national character. Mr. Disraeli encountered in his own party a small number of refractory members who have severely criticised him ; but his influence has grown, and the circle of his friends and admirers has increased. The tact and urbanity with which he manages men make him henceforth an unrivalled leader in the British Par liament. Last year, by heat of temper and im patience of manner, Mr. Gladstone allowed a secession to take place in the Liberal majority. Mr. Disraeli, on the other hand, has only been de serted by a few of his party, and has rallied to his colours a large Liberal following. Mr. Disraeli has been reproached with having reverted to the Radical tendencies of his youth, and having de serted the Conservative cause. The accusation is unjust, and, moreover, Mr. Disraeli never meant to consign his party to that statue-like immobility which the word Conservatism would seem to de note. Conservative is an awkward and unfortunate designation for a political party ; in the first place, because it repels those who have the consciousness and feel the want of life and motion, and next because it defeats its own object, and generates destructives by appearing to consign the party it covers to a condition of permanent superiority. Mr. Disraeli has never been a Conservative in the retrograde sense of the word. He has always de signated the party to which he belongs as the Tory party ; the Toryism of Mr. Disraeli is the Toryism of history—that of Bolingbroke, for instance, and of Lord Shelburne, who introduced Pitt into the Cabinet, and afterwards became the first Lord Lansdowne. No doubt the eminent men of the Whig aristocracy do not deserve the reproach of not being Conservatives ; neither has Toryism ever been inconsistentwith enlightened Liberalism. The Tories have always shown themselves less exclusive, more ready to admit men of talent than the great patrician league of the Whigs. Men of talent, without aristocratic connections, have always found their natural level more easily with the Tories than with the Whigs. The example of Canning is there to prove that merit of the Tories, and Mr. Disraeli's career confirms it. In the ranks of the Whigs, Mr. Disraeli would never have been Chancellor of the Exchequer and leader of the House, and he has retained on the subject of Toryism, allied with public interests, a youthful ideal, which only a few days ago he did not hesi tate to set forth, amid loud cheers, at the Mansion House banquet, "THE TIMES" ON THE NEW YORK STAGE. Tho "London Playgoer" continues his notices " On the Stage of New York." He informs us that the old Park Theatre, taking its name from the City Park, was once the national theatre of New York. This has ceased to exist, and the chief now open are the Broadway, Barnum's New Museum, Niblo's Gardens, the Olympic, the New York, and Wallack's; the Winter Garden was burnt down a short time ago. At the Broadway the production of " Caste " has caused litigation. Mr. Lester Wallack had purchased the right of acting it from the author, Mr. Robertson, but found himself anticipated by Mr. Florence. He therefore moved for an injunction to stop him. After much discussion the case was decided in favour of the Broad way, Mr. Florence deposing that he did ❑ot surreptitiously obtain a copy of the work but that during a visit to London he had attended the Prince of Wales' Theatre on several successive occasions; and had taken notes with sufficient accuracy to enable him to bring out the comedy at his own house; but the decision of the Court was based less on this deposition than on the difficulty of so ii.ter preting the international law of copyright as to confer an exclusive privilege on Mr. Wallack. The piece is highly praised by the " playgoer" as a perfect reproduction of the performance at the Prince of Wales' Theatre in London. Ile remarks that the decision of the law courts, nullifying the copyright, as bitween England and America, of an English drama, which, though not printed, has been acted on a public English stage, must be mortifying enough to Mr. Robertson and the British dramatists, whose interests are identical with his own ; but if artisti cal pleasure can be accepted as a compensation for material loss, such an exhibition as the one referred to might afford comfort even to Ur. Robertson. Mr. Ira Aldridge, the negro tragedian, who recently died in Poland, was to have appeared next month in one of the principal theatres. Barnum's New Museum is de scribed as conspicuous from an enormous picture of an alligator, extending from one side of the road to another. This is not only a museum, but a comic theatre for the per formance of pantomimes. Niblo's Gardens is not devoted to any particular class of drama, but is the "starring" theatre of New York, where actors of every school ensconce themselves for a while before a tour through other great cities. It is compared to the Adelphi in London, which completely changed the character of its performances as Mr. and Mrs. Dion Bouiconit, Miss Bateman, and Mr. Jefferson successively became the ruling stars. At pre sent dancing reigns supreme at Niblo's, with no other in tervals than that which separates the acts of the " Black Crook." Ho gives the following amusing answer to his own question, What is "Black Crook ?" "Some half dozen words are uttered before a picture placed in the front grooves, and when this is drawn aside the serious work of dancing begins, to be interrupted by similar infini tesimal gaps. All this the New Yorkers consider not only delightful, but astounding, as, indeed, it is. They have never seen a big ballet before, and now they have begun looking at one they seem determined not to leave off. The most extensive memory declines to recall the date when "Black Crook" first began, and the most far-seeing prophet ven tures not to foretell when it will leave off." Another great attraction, in addition to the dancing, is a " transformation tableau from one of the London theatres, and a picture, rendered marvellous by a real cascade, purchased from the Alhambra." The third notice of the "London Playgoer" is chiefly devoted to "Lotto," who is described as " a very young lady, diminutive for her age," whose avowed peculiarity is her versatility, there being scarcely limit to her range of characters. The principal attraction of the favourite piece, the " Pet in Petticoats," is said to be the unhesitating manner in which Miss Lotto swears ; and of "Family Jars"—the elaborate performance of that lady on the banjo. It is surmised that after a tour on the American continent she will probably visit London. At present the principal actor at tho Olympic, New York, 10 Mr. John Brougham, who represented O'Grady in " Arrah na-Pogue" during the successful run of that piece in Lou don. Mr. E. Coleman is described as an excellent actor lately arrived from Liverpool, and now acting " Urnih Heap" at the Olympic. The remarks in this paper con clude with the following words : " There is one fact with respect to which the English ought to be thoroughly disabused. When a Lond on actor visits America, and after a sojourn of two or three years, comes back to the old country, and is not so much liked as he was before, it is commonly assorted that he bps been 'vulgarised' in the United States. Now, there 10 nothing 'vulgarising' in an American audience; on . 111 7 contrary, its fault lies in the opposite direction, and if I were an actor just from London, I should feel that there was not enough 'go' in my patrons, and that if 114 showed rather less decorum their plaudits would be 131. more inspiriting."
