IRADES' OUTRAGES COMMISSION. MANCHESTER, Saturday. The Commissioners resumed their inquiry into the operations of trades' unions in the Manchester district this morning ; Mr. Pickering, Q.C., in the chair. Police-sergeant Sutcliffe, of the Manchester de tective department, proved having served a notice on Samuel Wood, landlord of the Crown and Cushion, to produce the boxes belonging to the Manchester Brickmakers' Society. Wood said, " I daren't let them go without some of the men being here, or they'll kill me." He then sent out for some members of the union, and five or six of them came. After conversing with those men Wood assisted witness to remove the boxes. The books produced were found in those boxes. . . Robert Barker was recalled, and examined at some length, but he gave his evidence with great reluctance, even the smallest facts being drawn from him with the greatest difficulty. He said the iron chest of the Manchester Brickmakers' Society had six locks, and there were six keyholders, whom wit • ness, as secretary, used to meet every week ; but the only one of them whose name he remembered was Chadwick. It was the duty of the keyholders to pay the money received from members into the bank, except a small surplus for current expenses. The weekly subscription for members was 6d. in summer and lid. in winter, and for non-members lid. all the year round. Money was withdrawn from the bank by the trustees, of whom there were 16. The trustees acted togetber, in groups of four. Witness was one of the trustees, but could not say who were the other three with whom he was associated. Tl.e Chief Commissioner read from a book the names of Samuel Hare, Joseph Harrison, and W. Scholefield. Witness said they were the trustees with whom he was associated. In January, 1864, witness and his co-trustees drew a cheque for £3OO. That was re quired for loans to members. It was customary about Christmas to lend the members £1 each. The other trustees would doubtless draw a similar amount about the same time. The loan was gene• rally made to 700 or 800 members. The members paid an entrance fee of £l. In 1865 witness and his co-trustees drew £6lO, of which £4OO, drawn in December, must have been for leans. In Decem ber, 1866, witness and his co-trustees drew £450 for loans. The members were expected to repay the loans before the end of the twelve months. There was a dispute between the Manchester and Stock port Unions, which had lasted for three months. Witness did not know exactly what the dispute was about. On being told that he might leave the box, wit ness said he wished to say a word as to his expenses. He had been in court four days, and at this time of year he could earn 12s. or 13s. a day, but he under stood he should only receive ss. a day from the court. _ _ The Chief Commissioner said it was a question whether he would receive anything at all, as he bad admitted having destroyed the books of the society for the purpose of defeating the objects of this in- quiry. John Maybury, chief of the Manchester detective police, confirmed the evidence of Sergeant Sutcliffe as to the bringing away of the boxes of the Man chester Brickmakers' Union from the Crown and Cushion. Henry Green said he was a brickmaker, and was at the present moment secretary to the Manchester Brickmakers' Union. Was present at a recent meet ing of the society, and believed he made an entry in one of the books of a man being fined 2d. for swearing. (Laughter.) On Saturday night last, after the officers of the court had been to the Crown and Cushion, and take away the boxes of the union, witness was so disgusted with that proceed ing that he took the cash-book, in which he had made the one entry just referred to, and stuffed it iu the fire of a brick-kiln on the premises where he was employed. Did not know what there was in the book, and if witness had not been asked about it by the commissioner he should have told the society he had lost the book. Was not advised by any one to horn the book, and took it to the kiln in order that the members might not know what he had done with the book. Remem bered being present at a meeting on Thursday week. Did not know what resolutions were passed ; in fact, he did not know the meaning of the word re solution. Heard nothing said at that meeting as to any money being given to get James Kay out of the way. Did not know what a minute book was. Made no entries except in the ledger. The witness was told his expenses would not be paid after his conduct in destroying the cash book of the union. James Cooley, a member of the Manchester Brick makers' Union, said he was concerned in the de struction of some bricks some years ago in the brickyard of Messrs. Topley and Hayfield, in George's-road, Manchester. Witness was appre hended and tried for the offence, and on conviction was sentenced to four years' penal servitude. Mr. Thomas Shepley said he superintended his father's brickworks at Hyde, which was about 31 miles from Ashton, and in the district of the Ashton Brickmakers' Union. In 1860 there was a wages strike among the men employed by witness's father, and in the beginning of 1861 some non-union men were employed. A deputation of union men asked to have the non-union men turned away, but wit ness's father refused to comply with the request. The result was that in February a notice was posted up in the yard warning the non-union men of what would be done to them if they did not leave the yard, and on the same occasion the tools used in the yard were destroyed. The notice was pinned on the door of a hut in the yard, and it threatened the lives of the non-union men. Shortly afterwards needles, card tacks, and short nails were thrown into the clay, but the men who did this seemed to have been disturbed, as a handkerchief was left be hind containing many hundreds of packets of needles. The needles did not destroy the clay. Witness came to Manchester and bought a pair of mittens for his moulder, and the clay was moulded up. In August two valuable horses were injured in the stable ; one was worth 50 guineas, and the other about 30 or 40 guineas. They were both hamstrung, and had to be destroyed. Witness's father offered a reward for the apprehension of the perpetrators of the outrage, but without effect, There had been no outrage in witness's father's yard since. The watchman, named Wyatt, had frequently been waylaid and threatened by union men. Joseph Wyatt gave confirmatory evidence as to the outrages committed at Mr. Shepley's. The notice on the cabin door threatened that if witness did not leave an attempt would be made upon his life. Was often watched by union men. On several occasions he had found apples and oranges on the road he had to take to his work, and on examining the fruit he found it bored much in the same man ner as cheeses were bored, and something green placed inside. On one occasion there were four or five oranges, and as many apples, all of which were bored in the same way, and stuffed with some green substance. He threw the fruit away, and told Mr. Little, the deputy chief constable of Cheshire, what had occurred. Witness believed the fruit contained poison, and remembered having found fruit stuffed in the same way four or five times. Once he found the fruit at a place where he had seen some men watching him. One of those m.n was named Wm. Barker. These events occurred in the. spring of 1861. In April of the same year Barker told witness that before 200 bricks had been made in Shepley's yard, he (witness) would have a ball put into him, and that the others would remember the corning of the " butterflies"—meaning the men who committed the outrages. Witness was often disturbed when he was watching Mr. Shepley's yard, and frequently bad to be guarded by policemen. Mr. Little, deputy chief constable of ,Cheshire, said he was stationed at Hyde, and remembered the last witness reporting that he had found fruit placed along the road he bad to go, and that the fruit was stuffed as Wyatt had described. Witness did not see any of the fruit, but he believed Wyatt's story, and thinking that the fruit was placed in Wyatt's way for the purpose of destroying his life, witness advised bun _whenever he found such fruit to bury it. Witness did not think it necessary at the time to examine some of the fruit, and submit the contents to a chemist, but that would undoubtedly have been the better course. He believed IVratt's statement, because he knew that the union. men were at that time committing many other out rages, and because Wyatt was particularly obnoxi ous to the union. Mr. T. Blocksage, a master brickmaker at Du kinfield, stated that up to May, 1860, he employed union men, but having a dispute with them about the way in which the work was done he suspended his business for two years. When he recommenced in 1862 he employed non-union men. Soon after that he had about 50,000 bricks destroyed. When he gave up business in 1860 the union fined him £5, but witness declined to pay it. An attempt was made to set one of witness's sheds on fire, and in 1861 a horse belonging to witness was stabbed in the breast, but witness did not know whether it was done by union men. The union men had been very lenient to him since 1862. By " lenient" he meant that they had not destroyed all the property they might have destroyed had they been so disposed. (Laughter.) James Barker said he was a brickmaker, in the employ of Mr. Blocksage, in 1862. Was not in the union then, and used frequently to be called a knobstick," and threatened by union men. Wit ness was formerly a member of the union, but he left it because he did not like their ways, and objected to certain charges that were made for sundry ex penses. James Sidebottom said he was employed by the Lancashire Brick and Tile Company, at the new prison in Manchester, and he and another man were violently assaulted by some brickmakers. Witness was not a union man, and the union men had pre viously objected to his being engaged by Mr. Blocksage, and he had not been engaged in conse quence. Police- sergeant Buckley, one of the Cheshire con stabulary, spoke to having seen a body of men, about twenty in number, in Mr. Blocksage's brick field one night in 1862. He went for assistance, and when he returned found that they had de- camped. The inquiry was again adjourned. Miscellaneous Foreign News. A letter from Rome, dated Sept. 6, says : Garibaldi has gone away. From this fact people infer that M. Rattazzi has promised this hero that by some other course than that of invasion Italy will march on Rome. Will France permit this ? "That is the question." It has already permitted so many things ! It is whimsical enough that Garibaldi, the man of the million guns, should go to attend a Peace Congress ! Here people are quite at their ease ; but the police exercise a careful surveillance over all pas sengers traversing the Papal States, whether from Florence to Naples, or from Naples to Florence. Three Garibaldian emissaries were the other day arrested at Ceprano, just as they were seeking to make their way into the Papal territory. Among these was a woman who had formerly under the Bourbons played the part of a spy at Naples for the revolutionary party. La Giunta Nazionale Romana (the Roman Na tional Junta) no longer gives any sign of life. Everybody believes that it has dissolved itself, or at least is about to do so. M. Rattazzi, doubtless to force the Roman Revolutionists to despatch quickly their business, does not give them any money. Now, you know, that money is the nerve of revolutions. Besides, the absurd loan issued at Florence by the party of action, failed in the very outset. Not more than 1,500 francs were raised. Lastly (and this is the matter of the greatest significance)—the Roman population does not wish to revolt. Except a few desperate men who specu late on revolution with the view of filling their purses, the 700,000 subjects of the Pope are con tent and proud to live under a Government which imposes few taxes and no conscription. The Cardinal Altieri has left by will to Pope Pius IX. the hat worn by Pius VIL when, in 1809, the French carried him away into captivity. The Pope has also received from Valence a no less precious memento, namely, the plain arm-chair on which, in 1799, Pius VI. died in that city, a pri soner of the Directory. These two objects will be placed in the sacristy of St. Peter. In despite of all the efforts of the King of Naples to prevent his Queen Maria Sophia from coming to expose herself to the cholera, this courageous prin cess persists in undertaking the journey from Zurich to Rome. She has begged the Queen of Spain to send a vessel to Marseilles to transport her to Civita Vecchia. The Pope enjoys excellent health. He expects to open the General Council on the Bth December next year. It is calculated that this year the population of Rome amounts to 215,000. This is an increase on last year of 4,700. The cholera at Rome and Albano remains sta tionary. But the extraordinary augmentation in the heat after the storm portends that this scourge will not abate its intensity. The inhabitants of Genzano, Marino, Anagni, Frascati, Palestrina, and other places are a prey to a panic which the authorities are endeavouring to allay ; but they are not always successful in such endeavours. To explain the cause of this panic we must know that within the memory of man the cholera has never made its appearance on those mountain heights. Everywhere the population would wish to be secured by a sanitary cordon, but so imperious is the need of communications that such a measure can rarely be applied. The course of the disease is also so irregular, that the greater part of the precautions recommended by experience become illusory. At Ceprano, for example, where all travellers coming from the infected provinces of Southern Italy stop for the examination of their baggages, not a single case of cholera has appeared. On the other hand, at Piglio, a little mountain hamlet, far removed from all the thoroughfares of com munication, the fatal disease has, relatively to the population, committed as dreadful ravages as at Rome. The sanitary condition of the army is com paratively good. At the military hospital there are scarcely sixty cholera patients under medical treatment. They are the objects of the most anxious care. The Minister of War has received for the Zouaves, from many cities of France, chests of tea, casks of Bordeaux wine, and flannel gir dles. Here is the order of the day published by his Excellency General Kanzler, to announce to the army the recompenses accorded to the gar rison of Albano : " The unforeseen scourge, with which the city of Albano has been visited, has furnished the mili tary there holding garrison with an opportunity of giving a noble manifestation of their zeal and their charity. "The gees-d'armes, every ready to fulfil their duty, have :not failed to display on this occasion all the zeal that was to be expected from them. " The Zouaves, following the noble example set by their superior officer, and shrinking from no danger and no fatigue, undertook of their own accord a work of the most devoted charity. They attended on the indigent sick—they dug graves, and even carried thither and buried there very many dead bodies. This is a fine page to be added to the history of that corps. " The generous heart of his Holiness, so well formed to appreciate like acts of courage and self devotion, has been highly gratified. Wishing to give to the army a mark of his satisfaction, his Holiness has commanded the undersigned Minister to suleit to him the names of the officers and soldie who have the most distinguished them selves on this occasion, deigning to confer on them honorary recompenses as follows :—Six knight's crosses, sixty-four gold medals (to the Bene meranti.) An ex-Zouave, a native of the Ponti fical States, and who was passing the summer sea son at Albano, joined his former comrades in their work of charity. He also has received a gold medal." Quo hundred and twenty ch.dren of both sexes, of Albano, rendered orphans by the cholera, have been received into a hospice, hastily got up by the exertions of his Eminence Cardinal Sacconi, who continues to exercise the functions of Car dinal Altieri. At Rome "La Commisione dei Sussidi," or the Committee of Public Beneficence, distributes a great number of blankets and flannel waistcoats, and medicines to the indigent. It is difficult to fix, day by day, the exact num ber who have been carried off by the cholera. In the; official bulletin those are not regarded as cholera patients who have succumbed to one of those maladies often engendered by this scourge, and which yield to prompt and energetic remedies. His Holiness will assist next Sunday at the Papal chapel held every year in the church of Santa Maria del Popolo, on the occasion of the festival of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin. It is announced that a Consistory will be held in the course of September. If we are well in formed, the Pope will there pronounce an allocu tion against the spoliation of the Italian clergy. The news given by the journals that the Holy See would authorize, or had authorized Catholics to take bonds created in Italy for facilitating the sale of ecclesiastical property, is utterly false. The day before yesterday the Sovereign Pon tiff gave an audience to M. de Sanglau, director of the American photography at Rome, who has had the honour of presenting His Holiness with an album comprising the portraits of 250 of the cardinals, patriarchs, archbishops, and bishops whom we saw on the 29th of last June, gathered around the chair of Peter. The album, magnifi cently bound, is adorned with the escutcheons of Pius LX. in alto relzero. His Holiness has ex pressed a regret that this collection is not com plete ; but this is not the fault of the photo grapher, but was owing to the multiplicity of occupations in which, during their abode at Rome, the bishops were engaged. Such as it is, how ever, the album is a splendid memento of the great festivals of June ; and the Holy Father has given orders that it should be deposited in the Vatican library. It is thought that he will send copies of it to the different Sovereigns of Europe. The .Nation criticises the Queen's book in one aspect most freely, and all the more so, as the English papers, in its opinion, had evidently "been restrained by social considerations, which have, in England, extraordi nary power, from speaking their full mind about it." The Nation maintains that the publication was a political rais-• take, and a very serious one ; and its reasons may be thus summarised. A despot holds real power, but a Constitu tional King reigns only by aid of legal fictions and popu lar delusions. With the educated classes the Queen is a leader of society, the first lady in the land, a person of great influence capable of changing the fashions. But with the middle and lower classes the Queen is a real ruler. Mr. Bagshot points out how the throne rests on the popu lar delusion as to the life and character of Court per sonages, the popular reverence for royal glitter and dis play, and that the danger is in the growing spirit of realism in such countries as the United States and Aus tralia, in which political business is conducted through the understanding, and where the attempt would to derided to conduct it through the imagination. This delusion gone, it would be seen that the House of Commons conducted tho Government with an Executive, called a Cabinet, ap pointed by and composed of its own members, while the Queen was a splendid supernumerary, whose sole mission was to impose on the vulgar. "Now," says the critic, " the tendency of the Queen's book is to destroy this delu sion utterly." It represents the Queen in anything but a majestic light. It strips off from her all her most valuable disguises and paraphernalia, and exhibits her to the world in the commonplace character of a gushing sentimental girl, and then of a devoted wife and mother." The error in this is that the writer does not give sufficient weight to the hold the throne has on the affections of the people. The lapse of ages has made this country essentially a kingdom, and there is a depth of sentiment in the matter which a native American would fail fully to appreciate. Something of the same reverence that the Englishman has for monarchy the American once hold for the Constitution. It may be said that the ono was based on sentiment, the other on reason; the one was a reverence, the other an exercise of the intellectual faculties. But it must be borne in mind that the English constitution is the arc of a bridge of which the Sovereign is the key-stone, and which, how ever patched and old fashioned, has sustained the people in their passage across the river of life for generations upon generations. It is in vain to try and persuade them that the venerated key-stone of the venerated bridge is a heavy, cumbersome, useless block, concealed behind a. stucco ornamentation. John Bull knows that, however the bridge may have groaned and trembled under the tread of marching armies of contending factions, and of an ever-increasing commerce, the only effect has been to shake it more solidly together, and the nation believes that if the keystone were removed, the whole would be very apt to fall in ruin. They have seen bran new structures on all sides, however imposing in appear ance, break down under the first serious trial, which their own structure had borne unmoved. The mis take American writers so often make in predicting the approaching end of monarchy in England is in judging of the Sovereign as a useless show intended to delude the crowd, and this is the error into which the reviewer in the Nation falls. Whoever had to perform a Sovereign's duty in England would find that a very considerable amount rtahowooamß oyal photographs t Ft kitchen,haf oe m sue i nlydd dissipaters in every epo a vutt etg m r yohr more albumi.u•oetf c it o lhl m ue os n kni a oioennnvgspedil every of labour came to hi s s h are.

There is probably no sentiment in Europe so deeply implanted as loyalty to the Sovereign in the British breast. When tho Nation therefore imagines that the leading English papers were restrained by social considerations from speaking their full mind, it is wrong; they are restrained by their very instincts, and, what is of mere weight, tho instincts of their readers. The Nation remarks :--" A more revolting and yet amusing illustration of the hold of great names on the popular imagination we do not know of than the attention paid by the press to Mr. Thomas Carlyle's last rhapsody, " Shooting Niagara." There is hardly a newspaper of respectability on either side of the Atlantic which has not " noticed' it with greater or loss elaboration, and many have solemnly and in sot terms refuted it. And yet, no matter by what standard we judge,it, it is pure rigmarole, the non sense of a foolish and conceited old man, which, if written by a person unknown to fame, no intelligent writer would dream of wading through. The American who has borne . " a leading part" in th e even t s w hi ch have led to emanci pation, and whom he cites as an authority for the assertion that the negroes "are being improved off the face of the earth," is probably a noted feuilletonist, whose share in bringing on the war was about as important as his share in conducting it. Major H. S. Burrage, a recent graduate of New ton Centre Theological Seminary (Massachusetts), is pre paring a volume the design of which is to perpetuate the record of the graduates and non-graduates of Brown University who entered the military or naval service of the United States during the war of the rebellion. Major Burrage will be assisted in the preparation of the volume by Professor Lincoln and Professor Dinman. Professor J. C. Watson, at Ann Arbour Observa tory, Michigan, announces that on the evening of August 24 he discovered a new planet. It rose about 11 p.m., and was invisible excepting through telescopes of superior power. Its position was right ascension 1 deg. 40 min., declination 3 deg. 10 min. south, and at present it is mov ing west and south. It was in the constellation Cetus. General Sheridan was born at Albany, February, 1831, and is therefore over 36 years of age. His parents are natives of Ireland, and emigrated to the United States in 1829. While he was young they moved to Somerset, Ohio, where the father worked as a day labourer on the turnpike. Phil served as a clerk in several stores until he was appointed a cadet at West Point, by General Thomas Ritchie, a member of Congress. Richard Trevellick was chosen by the Chicago Labour Congress as its delegate to Europe to act in beli , lf of the working men of America, and to acquire information on the system of co-operation here. Captain Jeffers, in command of the United States gun-boat Salvatara, arrived at Constantinople, from Smyrna, last Wednesday. Mr. F. W. Prideaux, of the India office, has for warded a letter for publication in the Pall-Mall Gazette, from his son, one of the prisoners in Abyssinia, dated Mag da'a, June 30th, 1867. The prisoners appear to be living in a house, where they have at least enough liberty to culti vate a little garden. The writer describes Magdala as a nasty place for colds and coughs, though the health of the party continues good. He goes barefoot, for the excellent reason that he has not any shoos, though experience seems to have satisfied him that it is the healthiest plan. He writes in good spirits, anticipating a happy Christmas meeting with his father, though he confesses that Theo dore, who, he believes, will retain the prisoners to the last, might in a fit of blind fury be tempted to commit any atrocity. His letter shows him to be full of determination and pluck. Prince Salm Salm has had the sentence of death commuted to seven years' imprisonment. Santa Anna was to be tried at Vera Cruz by court-martial. Losado had abandoned his position to Juarez, and Terriozabal has or dered the arrest of all Catholic priests crossing the Rio Grande into Mexico. The hotel in which Mrs. Truefield was so shame fully illtreated was the Hotel des Colonies, in the Ruo Choiseuil, and not tho Hotel Choiseul]. The News of the Week gives it as the Hotel des Italiens, 29, Rue de Choiseuil, furnishing the following items in the account : Two candles, 2f.; bedroom candle, 1.f.; a bath, 6f.; two din ners, 161.; strawberries, 3f.; four days' room, 401.; four days' ditto, 80f.; service eight days, Bf., &c. We agree with our contemporary in considering that this hotel ought to be marked to be avoided, so long as it is kept by the culprit Lemoine. The meeting of the World's Young Men's Chris tian Association was held at Paris, in the Salle du Con seil Presbyterial, commencing on Tuesday, the 3d instant, and closing on Sunday last. The delegates from the United States, as reported, were the Rev. Dr. Hogarth, Detroit, Michigan ; L. F. Mellen, Cleveland, Ohio (Sec. U.S. Commissioner to the Paris Exhibition); Rev. J. Milton Ifolmes, Jersey City, N.J. ; and 'Henry Wilkes, Now York. The various addresses were of great interest. The names of George 11. Stewart, Philadelphia, as the father of Christian communion in America, was received with great applause. On Friday the delegates were in vited to Versailles to partake of a banquet given to the convention by Madame Andrd. Escobedo has denied the authenticity of the letter attributed to him, calling for the expulsion and slaughter of all foreigners—Americans in particular. This he does through General Gormez, Commander of the line of the Bravo. One of the General's reasons is that General Escobedo knows a Republican should have no prejudices, and that in whoever he sees industry, good faith, virtues civil or social, there he should meet a brother, whatever might be his nationality. Senator Sherman delivered an able speech at Canton, in Ohio, reviewing the whole controversy between the President and Congress, and Congress and the Demo cratic party. He showed that Congress, in exempting national bonds from State taxation, had but adopted the doctrine laid down by repeated decisions of the Supreme Court during the last forty years. Governor Brownlow has taken possession of the Memphis and Ohio Railroad. Obligations to the State, he says, have not been fulfilled. The report that General R. E. Lee has accepted the presidency of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad is entirely unfounded. He has no idea of quitting Washing ton College, Lexington. Ou the 24th of August the Duke de Penthievre, with 16 Imperialist officers and some 250 Austrian troops who had been brought from Mexico by way of New Orleans, sailed from New York for Europe in the steamer Western Metropolis. This vessel arrived at Southampton on Sunday with her main shaft broken. President Johnson has been made honorary member of the " Mutual" Base Ball Club of New York. A murder occurred at the Union Hotel, Sara toga on Saturday evening, August 21th. Mr. Jones, deputy sheriff, in a state of intoxication attempted to take from Mr. Kirby a cane, on which Mr. Kirby remonstrated, when Jones struck him on the face, and stepping back placed his hand in his pocket as if to draw a revolver. Mr. Kirby, under this impression, drew a pistol from his pocket, and shot Jones dead. Sir Roderick Murchison and Sir Samuel Baker have expressed, at the meeting of the British Association, conflicting opinions as to the probable fate of Dr. Living stone. Moosa, Livingstone's companion, affirms that ho is dead. " But then," argues Sir Roderick, "Moosa is an African, and we all know that Africans are terrible liars." " So they are," replies Sir Samuel, " but my experience has taught me that black men, like white ones, seldom tell lies unless they have some object to gain by doing so. Now Moosa has nothing to gain by representing Living stone to be dead if he is alive, and has something to lose if the reappearance of Livingstone should prove him to have told a wanton falsehood." On the wlrile, we think that Sir Samuel has the best of the controversy.—Pall Mall Gazette. Mr. Ben. Wade spoke at Marietta, Ohio, osing his address with an outburst of indignation on the Demo cratic attacks on the integrity of the National debt and credit. General Thomas is suffering from liver complaint, for the proper treatment of which ho is residing at some springs in West Virginia. It is said it, would bo as much as his life is worth were ho to go to New Orleans in his present bodily state. SANDUSKY, Orno, Aug. 30.—0 n Wednesday last John McGreen and Charles Kinney of Kelly's Island, near Sandusky, swain a race on Lake Erie, from Kelly's Island toward the mainland at Marblehead, a distance of four miles and a half. After swimming three miles, Kin ney gave up and was taken into a boat. McGreen accom plished the whole distance in two and a half hours with out resting, and seemed very little fatigued. This is said to be the most remarkable swimming feat on record. General Rousseau telegraphed to Washington that he would sail for Sitka, August 31. The Hon. 0. H. Browning, Secretary of the In terior is becoming worse, and all visitors are forbidden. The Cabinet has decided not to publish the cor respondence between Sickles, Grant, and the President. General Steedman arrived at Washington on the 30th August, and had a long interview with the President. It is thought ho will take the War Department folio. Governor Brownlow has suspended the disband ment of the State Guard, assigning as his reason the dis loyal tendencies of the people of Tennessee. Signor Cerutti, the new Italian Minister, was received by the President on the 30th August. The deaths from yellow fever at New Orleans average 20 daily. General Canby has arrived hi Charlestown to assume command in succession to General Sickles. On Monday, the 2d inst., General Sheridan received the order relieving him from the command of the Fifth Military District. General Hancock has been granted 30 days' delay in proceeding to Now Orleans, on account of the yellow fever there.

This disposes of the last obstacle on that end of through line, and it is represented that 600 miles through the Great Salt Lake Basin can be buiit for less than the last 100 miles of mountain passage. This is an important step forward in the National Pacific Railroad. The New York T r i bune, August 31, g i ves th e following railway accidents :—" The Northern Railroad 8.10 a . m. train from Pierrepont to Jersey City, ran off th e track yesterday, opposite the North River Brick an d Tile Company's premises, near Tappan, and was delayed there nearly four hours. Nothing occur re d more serious than the d e l ay . Th e New York a n d E rie 5 o'clock p.m. freight train, from Pier mont to Suffers, broke down at Munsey yesterday evenin g , an accident hav i ng h a pp en ed to the engine. The Munsey 6.50 p.m. train was de layed an hour in consequence. No harm done." Railroad returns, which for some time past have shown a decrease in earnings, compared with those of 1866, are now again on the increase in every case. The prospect that the Dirge roads will do . a larger freight b us i ness this autumn in Western grain carrying th an l astyear, is certain. The h arves t is just ended, and th e i ncrease of grain sh i pments, though large, are nothing to what they will be later in the season. The largest receipts of wheat at Chicago for one week have been 355,911 bushels, while last year, an unu sua ll y b ad season, t h e y reac hed in a single week in October upwards of 900,000 bushels. The increase from June begins slowly, but will in crease all the time through the autumn. The Ohio and Mississippi Railroad Company are making arrangements to lay a third rail (narrow gauge) from St. Louis to Odin. This will be ac complished this fall, when cars will run through to Cairo and Chicago without change. RAILROADS IN lOWA.—The Des Moines Rail road, already running one hundred and sixty-two miles up one of the riche3t and most fertile valleys in the world, to the capital of lowa at Des Moines, will be extended fifty miles further up the valley next summer, intersecting the line of road already running across the State to Council Bluffs and Omaha. The Mississippi and Missouri Railroad from Macon City via Edina, Knox County, to Feokuk, has been put under contract to have the grading and tieing done by the Ist of May next, and $400,000 county, city, and local individual sub scriptions are already made to it. A bridge to be built by this road over the Mississippi, is, besides its railway track, to be constructed for the passage of wagons, carriages, horsemen, and foot passengers. On August 7th the last rail was laid upon the railroad connecting Nashville, Tennessee, with Paducah, Kentucky. This new . road greatly shortens time and distance between Nashville and Memphis. The track of the Minnesota Central Railroad between Cresco and Owatonna is now going down at the rate of two miles per day. At the present rate of work the road will bo ready for the cars on the 15th of September. The people of South-western Illinois are greatly interested in the proposed Illinois Farmers' Rail road, which is to run from Virginia City, Cass County, South to Du Quoin, Perry County, where it will join the Illinois Central. The route is through a splendid farming country, to which the road would be a great advantage. The contract for rebuilding the Mannassas Gap Railroad to Mount Jackson, in the Valley of Vir ginia, has been awarded to Messrs. Placide and Clarke, of Baltimore, at an estimated cost of $400,000. The contract is given out by the Orange and Alexandria Railroad Company, the present owners. The bridge which the Hartford and Newhaven Railroad Company is building over the Farming ton River, at Windsor, is rapidly approaching completion, and will be the finest structure of the kind in New England. It will be four hun dred and sixty feet long and thirty-five above the water. The track of the Cincinnati, Dayton, and Eastern Railroad, from Sandusky to Dayton, is to be entirely relaid in the course of a few weeks. RAILROAD ENTERPRISE ON THE PAClFlC.—Cali fornia capitalists are taking much interest in a pro posed railroad from Marysville, in their State to Portland, Oregon. The land grant given by Con gress of twelve thousand eight hundred acres a mile, is extremely liberal, while the route is feasible, not difficult, and through a rich agricultural country. The California corporators have begun a survey of the end of the line, which runs for its entire distance through the Sacramento Valley over an unbroken plain. The valley is one of the most fertile regions of the State, the first forty-two miles being an almost unbroken succession of harvest fields. It is estimated that the cost of the first eighty miles will be only twelve thousand dollars a mile. The San Francisco Bulletin thinks that with good management this section of the road could be made one of the best railroad investments in the United States. The serious difficulty would be found further north. The construction of railroads throughout West and South Jersey within a few years past has been of the most advantageous character. That one to Mount Holly from Camden is about finished; an other between Bridgeton and Cape Island is soon to be commenced, and the route of another from Atison to Vineland, and thence to the Delaware river, is being surveyed. Another will be commenced in a short time connecting with the Raritan and Dela ware Bay Road at Jackson, and will extend through Williamstown to Pennsville. The work of extending the Chicago, Rock Island, and Pacific Railroad westward is progressing ra pidly. The rail is being laid to Des Moines, and in a few days the capital of lowa will be connected with Chicago by iron bands, and trains will run through without change of cars. The projected new suspension bridge at Niagara Falls is being pushed forward with great prospect of speedy success. Contracts have already been made for all the materials except the wire, which the chief engineer will soon sail for Europe to procure. The towers will be 105 feet high ; the span, 1,250 feet; height above the water 175, and width of roadway 10 feet. The bridge is intended for the passage of carriages and pedestrians, and will be one of the most substantial structures of the kind in this country. The towers will be completed in about four weeks, and the bridge opened to the public early next spring. George A. Thompson, President of the Western Union Railroad, has returned from Scotland, where he has obtained a loan of $5,000,000 for the corn p!etion of his road, which will effect a direct com munication with Chicago, by way of the Western Union Railroad. Work is about commencing again on the Stam ford and New Canaan (Connecticut) Railroad, a new contract having been made to finish the grad ing, lay the ties, rails, &c., and put the road in con dition for use. The Iron Mountain Railroad, in Missouri, is to be extended one hundred and thirty miles by the first of next January. The Mississippi and Missouri Railroad is to be extended forty miles by the Ist of next May. THE S7EA3I YACHT "QUAKER CI7Y."• The Quaker City with her party of American tourists has returned from the Black Sea to the Bosphorus. The excursionists were warmly re ceive I, and entertained at Yalta, where the yacht proceeded, on ,his Majesty signifying his wish to receive the party. They were escorted from the wharf to the Imperial Palace by the Grand Duke Michael, brother of the Emperor, and Governor General of Caucasus, surrounded by his official cor tge, and received not only by the Czar, but by the Czarina in the most cordial and friendly manner, when, obeying their Anglo-Saxon instincts, they presented an address, drawn up by an elected com mittee : “To HIS IMPERIAL MAJESTY ALEXANDER 11., EMPEROR OF RUSSIA. " American Steam Yacht Quaker City, Yalta, Aug. 26, 1867. " We are a handful of private citizens of the United States, travelling simply for recreation and unostentatiously, as becomes our unofficial state, and therefore we have no excuse to tender for pre senting ourselves before your Majesty, save the desire of offering our grateful acknowledgments to the lord of a realm which, through good and throi'gh evil report, has been the stedfast friend of the laud we love so well. " We could not presume to take a step like this did we not know well that the words we speak here, and the sentiments wherewith they are freighted, are but the reflex of the thoughts and the feelings of all our countrymen, from the green hills of New England to the snowy peaks of the far Pacific. We are few in number, but we utter the voice of a nation. " One of the brightest pages that has graced the world's history since written history had its birth was recorded by your Majesty's hand when it loosed the bonds of 20 millions of men. And Americans can but esteem it a privilege to do honour to a ruler who has wrought so great a deed. The les son that was taught us then we have profited by, and are free in truth to-day, even as we were before in name. "America owes much to Russia, is indebted to her in many ways, and chiefly for her unwavering friendship in seasons of our greatest need. That that may still be hors in time to come we confidently pray ; that she is an' will be grateful to Russia and to her Sovereign for it we know full well; that she will ever forfeit it by any premeditated unjust act or unfair course it were treason to believe. " S. L. CLEMENS, of California, U.S.) " W. Ginsox, of Jamestown, Pa. " T. D. CLOCKER, of Cleveland, Oh. }Committee." "S. M. SANFORD, of Cleveland, Oh. "P. KINNY, of Portsmouth, Ohio. j The reception was marked by its freedom from ceremony to such an extent as to attract the notice of the Russian officers, one of whom observed, " that a delegation from any of the Powers or Courts of Europe would not have been entertained by the Emperor at his palace in so courteous and hospit able a manner as he extended to you Americans on Monday." The Imperial hosts showed the party over the chapel and through the best apartments of the Castle Lividia, pointing out the objects of interest. The Czar recommended a visit to the palace of the Grand Duke Constantine, in whose absence the Grand Duke Michael and Duchess did the honours. There was a splendid banquet afterwards given on board the Quaker City, and the steamer left the harbour lit up with a blaze of fireworks and rockets, salute after salute being fired, till she was far out at sea. The tourists are now on their way to Syria and Palestine, having enjoyed a grand tour, with the single drawback of that awful plague of cholera, which appears now to have seized on both Europe and America, and has checked them at more than one port. PETROLEUM AS FUEL. The Fire Ring, a steamer propelled by steam generated from petroleum, made a trial trip at Cin cinnati on Saturday, August 17, which proved highly successful. A pressure of one hundred and twenty-five pounds of steam was obtained in less 30 minutes after lighting the burners, and the average was one hundred and twenty pounds of steam while under way. The application i 3 the invention of Mr. H. S. Saroni. The boat is lighted with petro leum gas, while it is also used for culinary purposes. The experiment was witnessed by a number of steamboat commanders, practical engineers, and underwriters, who testified to the success of the enterprise, which is destined to produce a revolution in fuel for steamboats, it being deemed more economical, cleaner, and safer than any other kind of fuel. The Cincinnati Gazette says of the new method of raising steam :—" The advantages of this ar rangement are so obvious that it seems almost superfluous, yet we cannot resist pointing out at least a few of them. First of all, we have the economy of the fuel itself—twenty dollars' worth of petroleum being equal to fifty dollars' worth of coal. Then there is the economy of weight and space, which is as one to ten. In addition to this we have the saving of wages of firemen and coal heavers, the saving of time in taking the fuel on board ; and, above all, the perfect control of the engineer over the fire and complete absence of danger from sparks. The explosive qualities of petroleum have hitherto been the great bugbear by which our exterprising steamboat builders and machinists have been scared off. We are not at all surprised at this, for steam itself had to struggle hard ere it could assert its supremacy over every other power in use, and we feel satisfied that coal will give way to petroleum as the tow-path gave way to the railroad. A VISIT TO KING TuJEODORE. The Standard publishes the travels of a visitor to King Theodore, of whom he gives an account, which, though differing materially from that fur nished to the Foreign Office in 1855 by Consul Plowdeb, has yet many points of similarity. The King is of course older, and he appears to have given way to debauchery. The writer speaks of his high intellectual forehead, of the strong deter mination which marks some of his features, and of his wild savage eye, which shows him capable of giving way to passion and committing atrocities. He reached Gondar by way of the Nile, and was not therefore able to sketch the country which must be traversed by the British • force in its in vasion. Although the correspondence in the Times has been shown to be wrong in taking it for granted that there was 300 miles of jungle between Massowah and the capital very extensive forests cover portions of the route traversed by the writer. The road between the Red Sea and Theodore's capital is arid, broken by most irregular surface, without water, and with a climate not only the hottest in the world, but suffocating in its oppres siveness. The following is the writer's description of Gondar, and of his introduction to Theodore : " Gondar is a town of some 4,000 or 5,000 souls, and is built in a straggling manner along the sloping ridge and sides of a hill, surmounted by the gimp, or castle, to which I was at once led. It was a large irregular building, of massive, well hewn masonry, the walls of immense thickness, and some parts of it evidently of great antiquity. Au excellent view was obtained from this eminence over the surrounding country, the broken character of the land, intersected by hills and deep ravines coming out in fine relief. I had not much time, however, to admire the scenery, for a number of soldiers, in rather an Adamite state of dress, rushed out upon us, and demanded who and what I was. Ras Yakoob having informed thorn that I was an Englishman and a doctor, they asked whether I had brought any presents to the King. On answering in the negative, and adding ' bes ana' (only mysJlf), they shook their heads in a rather ominous fashion, and led me through the massive portal into the Court-yard, where I was taken to a spacious chamber, in which Ras Yakoob bade me wait, leaving half-a-dozen men to guard me until he returned. He soon made his reappearance in com pany with a person whom I recognised by his habiliments to be a priest, though I might have looked in vain at his bloated sensual features for any external evidence of internal fitness for his post, or for any Christian duties whatever. This gen tleman in black was the Abuca Salaam in propria persona, and had evidently come to gloat over the heretic Frank, who would doubtless soon share the fate of the other prisoners, or else to satisfy himself as to the probability of extorting something of value, presents or money, from me before his Im perial Master should forestall him. Siete ancora uno di questi maladetti eretici, gii nemici della nostra santa religione ?' (Are you another of these accursed heretics. the enemies of our holy religion, which were brought to us by the holy saints, Frumentius and Aldelins themselves ?) " None cosi, Santo padre' (not so, holy father), I said. 'I have nothing whatever in common with the missionaries ; my business as doctor is only for the benefit of the body, not for the soul ! ' "After some minutes' further conversation, con ducted in the same style, the Abuna bade me follow him, and therewith led me to the apartments of the King, which were situated in a distant part of the building. We had to pass through a number of intricate passages, all built of solid masonry, which, however much out of repair, still bear ample evi dence of the great strength the place must formerly have possessed. At last we arrived at the sanctum sanctorum, where his Abyssinian Majesty was to be seen in all his glory. The room was small, but crowded with articles of luxury, silks and damasks, gold and silver brocades, either used as carpets or laid on the divan. Surrounded by his guard stood the man, stern-named the Abyssinian Wild Beast, but whose appearance at the time by no means struck me as unfavourable. There was a dignity and grace about his movements which may truly be termed Royal, and a calmness which, with his deter mined cast of countenance and projecting under jaw, could by no means be mistaken for want of will. In fact,he is obstinate in the highest degree, and the pierc ing glance of his eye indicative of wild, irresistible passion. He is rather above the middle height, well and strongly built, a frame capable of great endurance, with a high forehead, denoting no mean intellectual capabilities ; but it was easy to observe what ravages a continual indulgence of his love of intoxicating liquors has already caused in his con stitution, and the mild look with which he surveyed me only too plainly showed that even then he was under the influence of some recent orgie. "After staring at me in an uncomfortable fashion some little time, he asked what business I had to enter his dominions without his previous permis sion ; what my object would be in coining to Abys sinia, and whether I was connected with the British Government ? Thereupon I informed him that I was merely a traveller, who wished to become acquainted with the ancient empire of Ethiopia, which bad been so wonderfully restored to its former glory by his great energy and strength of will. However, his Imperial Majesty was evidently proof against flattery, in fact, seemed rather dis gusted with it, and very peremptorily informed me that I was to consider myself a prisoner, therewith giving orders to conduct me from his august pre sence. Oa the whole I was not dissatisfied with the reception I had received, for knowing the pen chant the Negus had for trenching heath, arms, and legs from the bodies of his miserable captives, I considered myself fortunate in escaping, for the time being at least, as well as I did."
