This is a perfectly uncalled-for re- ground than to hold it against loss. mark, and its significance is such that it has already been resented in France. The quick witted commentators of the French press have recognised its meaning ; and to take one illus tration of the effect produced we may refer to the remarks in the Temps, which declares that the Circular in reality is equi valent to a denunciation of the Treaty of Prague. This journal adds, " Why should Count BISMARCK speak with such provoking hauteur ?" and adds very truly that he must have known this Circular would create in France a painful and irritating impression, and hs evidently desired to produce such an impression. Why? 'rile Presse observes that there is but one answer to Count BISMARCK'S fanfaronade, and that is " sure to cross the Maine, as we shall see." Now the wily Minister of Prussia is quite sufficiently acquainted with the opinions of French politicians not to know that his language could not be palatable to them, and why, therefore, we may well ask, should he employ such terms ? Why does he seek to imitate those whom he pro fesses to honour, and whose alliance he declares to be a gain to Prussian interests. These are questions which may well be asked, and, perhaps, the answer is not so far off as some may imagine. It is, at any rate, rather strange that BISMARCK should go out of his way at this critical juncture to talk about " our own concerns," and the necessity for foreign changes to avoid everything that might give rise to jealousy and cause disquietude concerning national independence. Ile must have some motive in the back ground, and that not of a very pacificatory character or complimentary meaning. It must have been a relief to Mr. DISRAELI to be able for once to appear in public without discussing any topic of a political kind. The celebration of harvest home in the parish of llughenden allowed a favourable opportunity for the discussion of domes tic subjects, which are in themselves of interest and importance to all who rightly appreciate the well being of the country. The Chancellor of the Exchequer has always been distinguished for the 1 interest he has taken in those matters which i relate to agricultural concerns, and he has shown a just discernment in appreciating the importance of protecting the comfort and happiness of the labourers. It is satisfactory to learn that of late there has been improvement in the residences of the peasantry of that parish. Mr. DISRAELI said that he was himself in favour of building new cottages for the labouring population, but that pro cess could only be gradually carried on. Without entering into the controversial point of this matter, the right honourable gentleman said very truly that those took too narrow a view of the question who "in building cottages for the labouring population look only to the immediate return of rent ; there is an immediate return far more valuable than rent, which is to be acquired by giving the labouring population dwellings which conduce to their strength, happiness, and health." It would be well if this sentiment were more gener ally entertained among those who have the oppor tunity of effecting improvements in the dwellings of labourers, for too much stress is laid on the mate rial character of the affair without reference to its higher end. It was hardly to be expected that the Manchester authorities would be fortunate enough to recapture their liberated prisoners within so brief a period, though we may be sure there is no lack of vigilance or energy in the search. The event itself is suffi ciently remarkable to give us ground for considera< tion, and the manner in which the attack was carried out is still more startling. The fact that an organised body of armed men should be able within the suburbs of a large populous city to overpower the ordinary precautions of the law, and set at nought the resist• ante of the civil force, shows us that there is something more in Fenianisin than many were dis posed to believe. We need not certainly fear any really dangerous or disastrous consequences from its manifestations, however violent or unexpected. It is not very likely that under their most skilful leaders these mischievous political fanatics will be able to accomplish their cherished scheme of taking possession of a stronghold like Chester Castle, and of shipping from thence arms and ammunition enough to enable them to effect a rising in Ireland. Even in Ireland itself, where many circumstances strongly favoured their cause, and where the body of the people in the wilder parts are easily in fluenced by any excitement and active demon stration, the whole Fenian movement collapsed in a very short space of time before the vigororis efforts—not of the Imperial troops or of thou• sands of volunteers—but simply of the Irish con stabulary. In England, where, whatever our griev ances, we certainly do not look to Fenianism for a remedy, it is in the highest degree improbable its heroes should ever give so much trouble. Still it is very undesirable that they should be able even to effect so much as they have done ; to startle the peaceable population, to encourage the dangerous c!asses, and generally speaking to unsettle those social relations on the due order and observance of which we are in the habit of priding ourselves. The mischief of Fenianism lies in its very absurdity and extravagance. We may smile, indeed, at the notion of establishing a Fenian republic, of putting Head Centre STEPHENS or ROBERTS in the place of Queen VICTORIA ; but there are American Irishmen among us crazy enough to think such events not only possible, but desirable. In pursuance of these visions they are ready to make any attempt, however desperate, to form any design, however impracticable. Their natural and national bravery, and also, we must add, the love of excitement and reckltssncss of copse sequences characteristic of their nation, make them ready to run any risks a - 1 , 1 dare any are compromised. Thank God, for France, those valuable benefits, placed under the protection of his patriotism, are sheltered from every attack." Another deplorable gun accident is recorded. M. Edouard Brame, who had been for a few days on a visit to the Chateau of Fontaine, near Lille, was shooting on the ground of the chateau, when he by accident killed the game-keeper, who was walking about, but who was unperceived by M. Brame when LA TEST INTELLIGENCE. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) AMERICA. (1j Atlantic Telegraph.) NEW YORK, Sept. 19, 6 p.m.—Sir Frederick Bruce has died of diphtheria. The steamer Arago has arrived out. he fired_ A project, which will shortly be carried into exe cution, is the creation or establishment of a military port in the North Sea. It is almost decided upon that the port of Gravelines shall be extended very materially, and by means of the prolongation of the canal of Mardock it will be rendered accessible to large vessels. This enlargement of the port of Gravelines will not only be of importance for the military marine, but it will be very useful to the commerce and navigation of France. The Princess Clotilde, who has for some time been taking the waters at Eaux Bounes, has re turned to Paris with renovated health. The last of the Vendeeans has just terminated a long and honourable career. The Countess de la Bouere, the widow of the general officer of that name, has expired in her 90th year. The Countess was present at all the terrible campaigns in La Vendee, and one of her children was born on the field. Her husband suffered a long imprisonment for having given refuge to an emigrant. She was the eldest of three sisters, who lived together for nearly a century. It appears, from the authority of the work upon Abyssinia, to which I have already referred, that the prevailing passion of the Emperor Theodore is pride, particularly in regard to his descent. A re port having been spread that his mother was a woman of low origin, and once sold a vegetable purgative in the streets of. Gandoor, the Emperor addressed a circular to all the French residents, giving a pompous narration of his genealogy. In this document it is said—" In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, one God, the King of Kings, Theodore, created by the Trinity, installed servant and made Prince by it, he has chil dren given by God, all the Franks. By your God and the God of your friend, Theodore, who appeared to Moses at Sinai and upon the Red Sea, who with appeared to Joshua at Jerico, who was seeking goa nf bdGy his father, lost vhfiadadt, h a a te s h c r s c e :o s f r t . a d hN i o, n o r u r u g g h rh e to same o Af anointed the sign of Samuel Saul, who also i w a nu sosa nation, Solomon withoutmat onhntei twashe prophet )i i l n l the d t h ° e was proclaimed king by it.

Now, they who insulted me by calling me beggar beg their bread themselves day by day. Without the will of God neither strength nor wisdom save from ruin. But it is not necessary for me to give you advice, for the proverb says, "Do not recom mend wisdom to the wise, and do not cut meat for the lion." If in your countries you should meet Negousie, the brigand who says that Ethiopia is governed by the son of a beggar, make a bet of a plain covered with gold, that I, the present Em peror, who am upon the throne of my fathers, Abraham to David and David to Fasil, and bring him here, that he may be confronted with me. It is God who humbles the powerful and raises up the humble." The weather is much improved. There has been warmth and sunshine to-day, and the strong north , wester is gone.

President Johnson's amnesty proclamation was issued yesterday. After a lengthy preamble, it says :—Mr. Davis, Vice-President Stevens, all heads of Departments, agents of the Confederate Govern ment, army brigadiers, naval officers, Governors of Confederate States, persons who cruelly ill-treated Federal prisoners, persons convicted and in custody, and all persons directly and indirectly concerned in the assassination of President Lincoln, are excluded. General Sheridan received an enthusiastic recep tion from the Democrats at St. Louis, but declined speaking. Mr. Wendell Phillips, writing to the New York journals, says that President Johnson will be im peached after the reassembling of Congress. He considers the amnesty treasonable and rebellious.

Admiral Tegetheff arrived at Vera Cruz on the 26th August en route for the capital. Santa Anna's son was organising an expedition at Havana to invade Mexico for the purpose of liberating his father, who was still imprisoned. All Generals condemned at Queretaro have been pardoned. Juarez has asked the Mexicans to hold the election for President. The Spanish squadron was at Rio de Janeiro, and intended sailing for the River Plato. Advices from Panama to the Ist September state that the principal adherents of Mosquera in Bogo to had resolved to support him. He was still in prison. Lopez had submitted. Affairs between Peru and Bolivia were in a critical state. The Bolivian army, under the command of the President, was encamped at La Paz, and was assum ing a hostile attitude towards Peru. Cholera was disappearing in Nicaragua. The British brig Cuba, from Matanzas to Boston, has been wrecked on the Hatteras lights, and six seamen lost. The Royal Mail steamer Cuba, from Boston and Halifax, arrived at Queenstown to-day (Sept. 20) at 2 a.m., with 71 cabin passengers, and $5,106 in specie. She landed 114 sacks of mails and 10 passengers, but carried on a portion of the Scotch mails. She proceeded at 2.20 a.m. for Liverpool. All well.

Many meetings are being held, and many more advertised, condemning the proceedings of the Legislative ►'hen it was that my father first visited Sir C. Barry and saw his designs ? When it was that my father wrote the letter of disavowal at his house ? When it was that he was at Salisbury ? Whether be ever saw Sir C. Barry at St. Mary's Grange ? His recollection of the circumstances he details is so vivid that it cannot be difficult to attach a date to them. Will Mr. Wolfe also inform us what was the date of my father's assistance being first obtained by Sir C. Barry. These are plain straightforward questions, to which I have a right to expect an answer. I shall then be enabled to complete a letter which, I trust, will end the correspondence. I have been reminded that I have not yet answered Mr. Charles Barry's challenge to refer my father's claims to have been substantially the designer of the Houses of Parliament to a committee of the Royal Council. PRUSSIA. BERLIN, Sept. 20. The sittings of the Schleswig-Holstein Notables terminated yesterday. The result arrived at is satisfactory to the Government. RUSSIA. ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 19 (Evening: The Grand Duke Nicolai has been appointed Commander-in -Chief of the St. Petersburg Military District. Finance Minister Reutern has re-entered upon his duties. The Bourse Gazette has received a warning from the Government respecting several financial articles lately published by that paper. Institute of British Architects. I think it will be time enough to answer any such challenge when Mr. Barry produces the 76 letters from his father to mine, which, as I stated in the Times of the 7th inst., Sir Charles Barry got from me under a promise to return them immediately, and he never did return them. The Messrs. Barry have quietly passed over this statement uncontradicted and unnoticed. They know better than I can whether these letters still exist or have been destroyed. If they do exist the Messrs. Barry must be aware that they are my pro perty, and they are professing to challenge me to a reference to arbitration while they are illegally withholding both my property and my evi dence. If, on the other hand, the letters have been destroyed, I believe that I need not write another word on the subject, but leave Sir Charles Barry's reputation and my former statement to the judgment of the public. No proof that I am likely to discover now can be so decisive as the destruction by Sir Charles Barry or his family of all the letters on the subject which he could get hold of—first, all my father's letters to him (as Sir Charles himself confessed to me), and then all his own letters to my father which h e could get out of my hands under a promise, and a repeated promise, to return them.--I am, Sir, you rs obe diently, E. WEL BY P uGIN. Ramsgate, Sept. 19. P.S.—Five thousand letters like Mr. Ru mble's, describing what was do ne by my father a t Sir Charles Barry's office, w ill n ot disprove what he did at Salisbury, Chelse a , or R ams gate. I dosin cerely wish, however, that all who are detailing these personal recollections of the c ircumstances to which they testify w ou ld g i v e dates. Surely it 15 not more difficult to g i ve one than the other. Will Mr. Rumble be good enough to give mo t he date of the time when he was wor king at Sir C. B arr y 's office at the same desk withmy father? It is per fectly immaterial to me w h e ther he gives it o r not ; but it will save trouble and time.

The boat is to be publicly exhi bited in Stockport on Monday next, 23d inst., which will be kept there as a general holiday, it being the anniversary of the opening of the Stockport public parks, when an interesting demonstration is expect - A to take place. CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Thursday Evening. The Moniteur, in its weekly explanation of the position of foreign affairs, says :—" The Reichstag Or Confederate Parliament now assembled at Berlin, which is composed of 297 Deputies, of whom 236 are elected by the colleges of the kingdom of Prussia and 61 by the other States of the Confederation, constitutes one of the great wheels of the Federal iet T s h u e fir m ag e e m , b a e n rs d are of by N un or v h c e r r s n a German a an d d y r e . systemelc te d sittings are public. The Reichstag has the right to propose the laws within the limits of Federal com petency. It makes its own regulations, and pro vides for its own internal discipline. It appoints is president, vice-presidents, and secretaries. The duration of the Legislature is three years. There can only be a dissolution 1 efore that period by virtue of a decree of the Federal Council given with the consent of the presiding authority—that is to say, the King of Prussia. The Reichstag decides by absolute majority. To give validity to its votes the presence of the majority of its members is indis pensable. The deputies do not receive any indemnity or salary. " The Austrian journals are occupied with the negotiations which the Court of Vienna is about to commence with the Pontifical Government with a view to the revision, by mutual consent, of cer tain articles of the Concordat of 1855. They involve various questions relative to matrimony, such as causes of nullity of marriage, separations, &c., which are now within the province of official per sons, but which it is proposed to transfer to law jurisdiction. Reforms are also proposed in the system of public education, now under the direction of the Church, and with the view of enlarging the principles which regulate Dissenting sects—for in stance, mixed marriages." At the banquet after the inauguration of the statue of M. Billault, M. Rouher made a second speech, which was of more importance than the first, inasmuch as the minister dwelt earnestly and eloquently upon the benefits of peace. in reply to the toast of the prosperity of Nantes, the Minister said that although the Government could not take measures to favour any particular locality, yet it had at heart the general prosperity of trade and commerce, and the legitimate interests of Nantes, which would flourish under the auspices of peace. For the execution of great works, as well as to in sure activity in business, the first condition was peace. All the efforts of the Government, the whole policy of the Emperor, had for its object the main tenance of peace, and its long duration. " Believe me, and I am happy to say it at this meeting of the representatives of the hi t her class of commerce and great industry, the Emperor will not become weitry of endeavouring to increaze the fruitful glories of peace.

The proceedings connected with this outrage prove to have been more serious than we stated in yesterday's impression ; and the attack upon the police was evidently a well-concocted scheme, and was well carried out. The occurrence of such a daring rescue on the very outskirts of the city, and where there was a dense population, naturally caused intense excitement in Manchester yesterday. The neighbourhood of the Albert- street police-station, where the prisoners were lodged all night, attracted great crowds of people, and the outrage was the prevalent topic of conversation throughout the city. Up to last night 33 prisoners had been taken into custody. With the exception of three men, who were taken during last evening, they were, up to yesterday neon, lodged in the Albert-street station, under the guard of a detachment of the 57th Regi ment, consisting of about fifty 'nen. All was peaceable throughout the city during Wednes day night ; indeed, but for knots of three or four persons in front of some of the police stations and the Royal Infirmary, the night was in no way dis tinguishable from any other. As soon as possible after the outrage officers of police were dispatched in the districts which the Fenians are known to frequent and to the outskirts of the town, and other officers were sent to neighbouring towns, with a view to apprehending the fugitives who took part in the outrage. The following are the names and descriptions of the men in custody up to the time of writing : Charged with the murder of Brett and with shoot ing at the other men : William O'Mara Allen, Sudell-street, joiner, 20, imperfectly educated, out of work, Irish; Michael Larkin, Eliza-street, Hulme, tailor, 32, of no education, Irish.

Charged with being in the possession of an unlawful weapon, for an unlawful purpose : John Francis M'Auliffe, of no residence, lecturer, 26, well educated. A glance through the above list of names will show that most of the men who have taken part in this outrage give local addresses. We believe that ill this occurrence the police had very little idea at the Fenian movement had many promoters iu anchester. The appearance of the streets yesterday in the neighbourhood of the Police-court was such as has seldom been witnessed. Long before the hour at which the business of the City Police-court com mences a vast number of persons had assembled in Bridge-street and the neighbourhood, ex pecting the arrival of the prison van ; but it was for some time a matter for consideration whether the Fenian prisoners should be brought up at the court, or examined and formally re manded at the Albert -street police station. The magistrates held several meetings at the Court-house on the matter, and at noon it was determined to have the hearing at the Court-house. A still larger throng, numbering many thousands of persons, also gathered in front of the police station, and such was the desire to have a sight of the prisoners that many persons paid for accommodation on lurries, carts, and other vehicles, which were for the time brought to a stand-still in the street. Not a few persons, too, drawn by the same curiosity, occupied perilous positions on neighbouring house-tops. The duties of the military guard during the night bad been confined to parading in front of the cells occupied by the prisoners, among whom no disturbance whatever had arisen. About ten o'clock yesterday morning, a detachment of the 57th Regiment, consisting of 48 men, under the command of Capt. Clarke and Ensign Matthews, reached Albert-street, in order to relieve the night guard. The cheers which then arose from the populace at first caused some ap prehension within the police station, and a little stir among the military who were parading the yard. But the entry of a soldier, with the announcement that the relief -guard was approaching, set the ap prehensions at rest. As the guard came nearer the station they were more enthusiastically cheered by the crowd. The doors of the station-house, which • h a d hitherto been partially closed , w ere at once t h rown open, and the soldiers, with their bayonets pointed, entered the stat i o n amid more cheers. The omm anding officer was received by Mr. M. Ken nedy, one of the city magistrates, who had been at the station from an early hour. Within the police yard the fresh guard went through a number of evolutions. The night guard, a like number of men, under the command of Captain Hasted and Ensign Hornidge, of the 57th Regiment, then prepared to leave the station-house. It was necessary that the prisoners who had been brought in on ordinary charges of theft and drunkenness should now be removed to the police-court, and it was decided that for purposes of safety the military who were about to leave should accompany the van thither. The 'prisoners, five or six in number, were marched out and placed in the van. The soldiers, who had severally charged their rifles, marched out of the station, and took up their position in front and rear of the vehicle. No oppo sition was encountered, and the van soon reached the Court-house, and the hearing of the ordinary business was proceeded with. In addition to the military and police -the station was crowded by a large number of witnesses who had seen the attack on the police officer, and who attended to identify the persons who were from time to time brought in upon suspicion. The prisoners were ranged during the morning in the main corridor into which the cells open, and the witnesses, a numerous body, passed singly along the corridor, for the purpose of identifying such as they saw in the affray of Wed nesday. Many of the prisoners were recognised, particularly Allen and Larkin, who were spoken to by several persons. The former, who is a tall, simple-looking young fellow of 20, dressed in shabby black trousers, dirty light coat and waist coat, and brown billycock hat, and without necker chief, seemed much concerned during the process of identification. Many of the prisoners are hang-dog looking fellows, and it required a good deal of resolution to pass down au alley with 25 such men on one side and only about a yard of retreating room on the other. On several occasions witnesses hesi tated to walk down the line, and had to bo urged forward by the police. One of the prisoners, James Woods, stood on the cold pavement of the corridor, as he had also passed the time during which he had been in the cell, without boots. The ex planation given was that, when a pprehended in Ashton-under-Lyne on Wednesday evening, his boots were bedaubed with clay, and as they afforded a presumption that Woods had been crossing the country, it was determined that they should be preserved in their then condi tion. Woods at first refused to give any address, but ultimately he stated that he lived at Pendleton. The majority of the prisoners seemed quite uncon cerned at their position, and from time to time seve ral of them stepped out of the line to look through the window at the military in the police yard. Tho demeanour of these fellows towards each other was most familiar; and the courteous manner in which a jug of water, provided for their common use, was passed at times along the line was sugges tive of fraternal feeling. About half-past one they were removed from Albert-street station under guard. As many of them as possible were placed in one of the police vans. The throng who had so long waited outside were here very much dislppointed, as the van received its load within the police yard, and as the doors in Albert-street had been closed not even a glimpse of the proceeding could be obtained. A body of sol diers, with fixed bayonets, immediately followed by a number of the city magistrates and members and officers of the Corporation, preceded the van, which was followed by a cab containing several other pri soners, and guarded on each side and in the rear by other soldiers. Not the slightest demonstration was made as they left the station, and in a few minutes the back door of the Court-house, in Somerset-street, was reached. There the soldiers formed on each side • of the van, and one by one the prisoners stepped out • and were led into the court, greeted by nothing be. • yond derisive laughter and shouts of ribaldry. THE EXAMINATION BEFORE THE MAGI STRATES. When the prisoners reached the police court they were taken into the upper room, which was crowded with spectators. There was a full bench of magi strates, and the stipendiary (Mr. Fowler) presided. The Mayor (R. Neil, Esq.) was also present. The prisoners were arraigned in the body of the court, the number present being 29, and M'Auliffe. In reply to queslions by Mr. Fowler, all the prisoners except two stated that they wished to call witnesses. It was determined to take the case of M'Auliffe separately. M'Auliffe was charged with being a sus pected person, and stabbing a policeman near the City Police Court on Wednesday. Before proceeding with the hearing of the case Mr. Fowler said : Before entering on this case I wish to say one word as to the great loss sustained by all connected with this court in the death of Sergeant Brett: For many yea rs, as officer of that dock, he has performed most difficult duties with admirable temper, firmness, and credit to himself, and he carries with him to his last resting-place the universal respect of all with whom he has been associated. Mr. Superintendent Gee said the whole of the prisoners except one, M'Auliffe, were charged with riot and murder. In consequence of what took place in Hyde-road on Wednesday, police were sent in pursuit of the men who made the attack upon the police van, and from inquiries and information cir culated, the prisoners had been apprehended on suspicion of being connected with that proceeding. He should have to ask for a remand, because there would be, probably, others to be brought up, an d because some of the witnesses had not yet seen the whole of the prisoners. He, nevertheless, believed that the whole of them would be identified as having been concerned in the attack. Charles Thomas, a plumber and glazier, identified Allen, Larkin, and two others. He had observed them before, during, and after the affray. Before the attack he was watching them from over a wall, standing on a dog-kennel. He saw one of them run from the Hyde-road Hotel, and give the word to the others, and immediately afterwards the van came i n sight. Two of the men, whom he is able to identify' he saw drawhig a revolver each, and they appear ed so deliberate that he said to a neighbour," Goo d God, these men are going to fight a duel." He observed line g n baud, w and ay at Allen, who was dressed in a light coat, with a p istol in a each when the lh,ae.e.wasnenosatl‘fifing he 11 1-114 hammering him shot into the van.

He was well d ressed, wore a hat, and the lappels of his coat were bor dered with worked silk. He also ha d a light moustache. After the rescue this witness joined iu the pursuit, and, while others chased Allen, he wen' after the well-dressed man. He came up with bin' at the wall near Ashton-road, and helped to capture him. He also identified three others. James Mayer, a barman, identified Allen and two others.

Two of the men, whom he now identified, were trying to turn the horses' heads towards Manchester, aud, as they plunged a good deal, one of the Inca fired his revolver into the animal's nostrils, and then both the men tried to pull the brute on his haunches. Allen at this time was keel ) " ing guard, daring the crowd to interfere. After Allen had fired sever al shots witness saw him go to a man on the other s ide of the arch and chng° pistols. Two other men,whom the witness identified, took a leading part. One of them, cautioning hil comrades, said, " Don't shoot, or you'll hit Allen. (At this time Allen w as in the van.)
