ROYAL LYCEUM THEATRE: THIS EVENING, and every evening during the w eek, the GRAND ELEUSINIAN SPECTACLE of MAGIC and MYSTERY, by Professor ANDERSON, the Great Wizard 'of the North, in 12 acts, with ever-changing variety of incidents, continuous surprises, novel and extraordinary effects. Magi c and Mystery is an entirely new entertainment, pos sessing distinctive characteristics and peculiar phases of amusement. It is not a monologue, for the audience them selves iferform their parts with the principal actor, some of them on the stage and others in front ; it is not an exhibition, for though everything becomes metamorphosed before the eyes of the visitors no one can be positive that he sees any one thing ; but it is a comedy really performed by the com pany : a melodrama replete with startly positions and unex pected denouements a magnificent spectacle, with 2,000 of the public every night to appear as auxiliaries ; and an ex iravagataa, in which all that seems to be is entirely beyond the bounds of probability. Professor Anderson returns his thanks to thronged and fashionable audiences which have nightly filled the Lyceum and by means of whose generous aid he announce Magic and Mystery for con- He believes that no professor of his art in any place been honoured ev'tle an' extensive, so decided, and 'so unusual. hat success to three causes ; first, that inment he has placed before his visitors tdulously devoted to the attainment of peculiar art, and to perfect which he ,e in every clime ; secondly, that he has - _ expense to put this entertainment on the stage in the most elaborate manner, by the employment; of the first mechanicians and artists of the day ; and thirdly, t hat, while endeavourings to provide amusement for those who honour him with their presence; he has not forgotten that i t is possible to afford information also, and that the oppc, tueity should not be neglected of exposing conjuring where ever it has been used for nefarious purposes, or whenever by resorting to the conjuror's arts, in an illegitimate manner, the designing have succeeded in making dupes of the credulous. The 937 letters on the subject of spirit-rapping, which Pro fessor 'Anderson has received, from the time of opening the theatre up to the present date, bear witness to the great in terest eaken on the subject of this singular delusion ; whilst 14 2 3, Y of them bear melancholy evidence to the dangers which end a belief in the superstitious nonsense of the " Spiri tualists." Judging shnply by the correspondence which has resulted, Professor Anderson's expose of spirit-rapping and his illustration of the so-called table phenomena, have pro duced a sensation unequalled by any previous attempt. to ex pose a mis c hievous and impudent juggle. It is impossible 'or PrOfessor Anderson - to reply at length to a tithe of the co mmunications which reach him on the subject. He regrets t hat many of these should come from ladies and gentlemen Who, from their position in society and their well-known in tellectual attainments, he would least have expected to have b een converts to a belief so preposterous in itself, and so easily susceptible of being. controverted and disproved. Every evening, from the Lyceum stage, Mr. Anderson's opinions on Lyreh-rapping are expressed, and every evening, within the eure, how 'tables can be made to rap is exhibited and elucidated. It is respectfully requested that this Public exposition will be accepted generally as Professor Anderson's only mode of replying at full length to his M ultitudinous correspondents. He regrets that the names of the great and learned of the land should have been made to figure in the documents emanating from the spirit-rappers, as for instance the following, ex tracted from the Morning Advertiser of Thufsday, Septem ber 20, and taken by that journal from the New York Spiri tual Telegraph. It purports to emanate from an American a pirit-rapper, Mr. D. D. Hume :—" Sir David Brewster frankly confesses that he is sorely putzled' at what lie has witnessed, and Lord Brougham acknowledges himself to be thoroughly nonplussed. Both of these noted men brought the whole force of their keen discernment to bear upon the solution of the phenomena; but the presence of substantial, actual hands, and the demonstrative strength of the spirits who thus clothed themselves for the time, and moved mate rial objects about the room, proved to be too much of a ques tion fOr them to master." Mr. D. D. Hume, the, author of the above, has recently left England, and the following account of who, and what he is, occurs in the Family Herald, No. 648: —" This young man, who is a Scetchman by birth, and new in Italy, is a remarkable medium for all the manifestations without apparatus. Barnum, who is well-known throughout thitAnglo-Saxon world as a splendidhumbug, offered him 2.000 dollars per annum if he would perform at his museum in New York. Barnum then took it for granted that mediums could be brought. He was somewhat astonished when his offer was r efused. Hume, on telling the fact in London lately, simply and honestly remarked, that the money would have been very acceptable to him, for he was poor, young (under 20), an or- Phan; and in very bad health : but he would have been afraid of losing his power as a medium, and he would sooner lose his life. The refusal, however, made Barnum thoughtful. l ie inquired into the subject; and now Barnum, one of the greatest humbugs in the world, and withal a conjuror, is one of the firmest believers in spiritnalism." It is cer taiely surprising to find such a paragraph as this in the editorial article of an established journal, the editor of whom Might be supposed to be sane. Even if Barnum does believe i n Spirit-rapping--does spirit-rapping gain or lose by this accession to its adherents ? and, with Barnum's endorse tient to it, is this bill, drawn on public credulity, more likely 10 be negotiated ? Professor Anderson would believe not ; b ut, when he finds that educated clergymen of the Church of -England have the temerity to subscribe thelr names to so gross a,svrindle, when he finds that the incumbent of Wortley (the Rev, N. J. Godfrey) positively asserts his belief in it, and Writes a b6ok on the subject, be considers it t be time for hire to state that which he knows of the mechanism by which it is effected, and the mischief to which it tends. In the David Advertiser of October 3 appears a letter from Sir 4 - 1 8.vid Brewster, relative to that which he saw at COx's Hotel, in Company with Lord Brougham. He distinctly states that Which the Wizard of the North proclaims every night—that s pirit-rapping is nothing more than conjuring applied to bad purposes, In the Morning Advertiser of the following day, however, there is an answer to Sir David's letter from ore Who was present when he and Lord Brougham had their I 'fiance with the spirits, in which the writer says, that " the table (a large dinner-table, I believe) moved about in the most extraordinary manner, and, among other things, a largo ac cordion was conveyed by an invisible agency to my hand and then to Lord Brougham's, in which, held by his lordship's right hand, apart from any person, it played an air through out," With such a statement, printed for the edification of the people of the 19th century, with the facts before us that the most talented men of the day are permitting themselves to be deluded by these juggling spirit-mongers—that the greatest novelist of the age is now engaged in making it the Subject of a new work, and that a " spiritual conveaLioa" has actually been advertised to be held in St. Martin's-hall, Professor Anderson trusts that his exposures of the spiritual ists of America, as given by him nightly at the Lyceum, will be received by the people of England as genuine honest at tempts to provide au antidote for the bane of the spiritual Jugglers. In the course of the last five weeks 100,017 persons have 'visited the Lyceum Theatre,—a larger number, it is believed, than has ever before been assembled within its walls in so Short a period. Magic and Mystery is repeated every even. ing, the programme being continually changed.

TO LOVERS -OF FISIL-100 GENUINE YARMOUTH BLOATERS for Gs., package included. THESE HIGHLY ESTEEMED DELICACIES AND CHEAP to : the agricultural interest, . that the anticipations of the agriculturists arising from • the operation of flee trade had altogether vanished, and that agriculture was now presperous. (Hear.) There were; doubtless, a variety of circumstances which caused the greatest de pression to the agricultural interest. The Change to which lie bad referred was effected at a time when they were unprepared' for it, end when' other laws and ens toms which prevented the,overflovelV capital to the land ought to hate bees abolished. Mittens, however, were now changed.. They had high pril4s, they had agricul ture thriving because they had made a number of im provements, and he felt 'quite convinced that, though those high 'prices might have doer them goocl,'yet that .their prosperity was: more .owing to the great itn= provements that they' had madein the cultivation of the land than to any temporary advance in priceS. He could not help thinking, at the same time, that they ought not to rely on those high prices. The,war might last for a time, but he hoped it would be 'bought to a speedy, honourable, and satisfactory coleision. And when that time came, they might rest assuretethhte there would be a reaction, and they must be prepared to meet that change by improvements in the culetation of the land. (Hear.) They must rety upon their own exertions for those improvements, and this was the proper time to do sc. He thought that a. new era was fast dawning fOr the agricultural interest. The time was, when meetings of this kind were first commenced, that they felt a great step was taken to improve the condition of the labour ing classes ; but it seemed tfiebiin they must do something more—they must look higher uP the tree, so to speak, and they must endeavour, if they could, to remove all those laws and abolish all these customs which interfered. to prevent the flow of capital into the cultivation of the soil. He believed that by adopting this course they would do more than by any other means to 'promote the happi ness of the humbler classes—(hear)—asid to forward the objects which those societies bad so much at heart, He always felt that when these doors were' somewhat forci• bly opened for the admission of ferpign produce it was only fair that the principle-of fr4e - trade-should be ap plied also to the raw material—the land itself—and that all these technicalities and difficulties which interfered with the tree 5 - er oftind from a willing owner to - a willing . purchaser should be entirely removed. (Hear.) - -He ap pealed to them whether, in a country like this, where the population was fast pressing on the means of sub sistence, it was right that we should retain any of those l laws and customs which interfered - with the free cultiva tion of the soil, which greatly oppressed the labouring classes, and did great injustice to the whole community. (Cheers.) He found from statistics that there were in Great Britain and Ireland no fewer than 15.000,000 acres of waste land capable of improvement and cultiva tion, but which were not cultivated at all. In England there were said to be about 4,000,000 acres of waste land capable of cultivation ; in Scotland, where the land was hicked up under a close system of entail more severe than in England, there were no less than 6,000,000 acres capable of cultivation; and in Ireland, 5,000,000 acres which still remained without cultivation. He was struck with the remark of Lord Stanley the other.day .to the L;verpool and Manchester Agricultural Associa • Lion. Has lordship said that if any man retained land in his own hands• which he had not the power to im prove, and did not sell,.he was a wrcng-doer to the coin munity. (Cheers.) If that remark was applicable to an individual, how much more so was it applicable to a legi-lature which allowed a number of laws to exist (not obsolete laws, but which were Frictly in force), which compelled a man to keep in his own hands that which it was utterly impossible for him to improve. (Hear.) The hon. gentleman proceeded to coMpare the position of a landowner in these circumstances to that of a soldier who had inherited a machine for making stockings, and which was entirely useless to him* so long 'as it remained in his hands. 'By converting thee machine into money, however, the soldier did that which benefited himeelf, while-at the sam e ti me it becae m'an instrument f or in!. creasing the wealth of the community. The hon. gentle man having made some further remarks on the existing laws relating to the tenure of land; concluded by thank ing the company fir the honour they had done him in drinking Ins health. Mr. DMJMMOND, in replying to the toast of his health, said—With respect t o what had falleri from his hon. col league in the representation of the county'on the sub ject of entails, he might state that from the first moment he had a seat in Parliament he had laboured hard to get-a registry of titles to land throughout the kingdom, which would do away with a great many . of 'the com plaints to which Mr. Locke King hail alluded. That plan, he cat happy to say, was nove in course of being carried out after a long delay, the present Solicitor- General having taken up the subject most Warmly. He assured them the opposition he had met was not from the landowners themselves, but from the laVyers, including old chancellors, half-dead chancellors, and live chancellors. It was a great thing to get a man who had mortgaged his estate to understard that he had really no longer got it. When once you got to understand that, you had gained a great step in the right direction. He would tell them this, that unless they got leases they never would farm their land in a 'satisfactory manner. He would give them one or two itslanees_. One was 9 the case of a - connexion of his.'Oevikitklhelloath of Eland where there were no leases ; and when the tenant' there said to Mr. Cain!, on his visit to them, that dial had no leases, that gentleman omitted that fact in his corn-. municatiou to the public. It did not suit his book. But though there were in that case no leases, there was a regular valuation every year, which in point of fact answered the same purpose as a lease. With regard to. his own conduct in Parliament, he could honestly say that he had endeavoured all alone to look at things and not at sounds. He positively cared nothing about a mea sure which was called conservative, or which was intro duced by a party said to be conservative, if in point of fact its tendency wasdestructive. And if it was destructive, he always voted against it. If, en the same principle, he saw a motion propounded having the factious object of turning out an existing government, without having a better at hand to supplant it, he always gave such a mo tion his most strenuous opposition. He really thought that it would be better to have no government at all than some that' he had . seen. At present they had five-. parties in the House of Commons, any four of which were able at. any moment to devour the fifth. His belief was that their real danger consisted in the propensity of the House of Commons to become the government of the country—to become the executive instead of being sim ply the legislature ; and . against such a system he would always contend. (Cheers.) He would now propose to them the toast of the evening, "Prosperity to the Chert sey Agricultural Associaiion." Lie was e xceedingly glad that this association had continued in force for up wards of 20 years, and sorry that in other parts of the country kindred societies had died away. He could not understand why farmers did not feel it to be an advan tage to them to meet together now and then and talk over the business of their daily lives.. Manufacturers were accustomed to do so, and a farmer was a manufac turer. He thought in the first place they were wrong in not getting leases ; but it was 'no use preaching to a farmer unless you could show him something. The very last time he had the 'pleasure of seeing them in t hat room, even shoeing them something would not do, for he remembered a shoemaker or a tailor bring ing into the room on that occasion a practical illustra tion of a most enormous produce having been raised from a single seed. He mentioned this to show how much might be done by superior cultivation. On that occasion a gentleman at the other end of the room said it was all very well for gentlemen farmers to come and humbug the practical farmers in that way—(laughter) — but there the thing was before his eyes. It was said that seeing was believing ; but this gentleman saw and did not believe. The fact was, if the tenant farmers could not be induced to meet together on those occasions to talk over their own affairs—it the mountain would not come to Mahomet, Mehemet must go to the moun tain ; and if the farmers would not come and partake of such a dinner as they had bad that day, then the country gentleimen must provide a dinner of bread and cheese and onions, and come in smock-frocks to meet them. (Laughter.) They had heard a great deal about the improvement of 'cottages, model cottages, and so forth, but he should be obliged to any one who would tell him how to build a cottage and make it profitable. Te was said, look at the Scotch, and see what they have done in this respect. Why, throughout Scotland there were but two rooms in all their cottages, which , in thei r own language they called a " but and a ben ; and no matter how many children there were, they were stowed, just like herrings in a barrel, all together in the same bed, He must say, howeverenotwithstanding, that the Scotch peasantry, on the whole, were more moral than those of England. He would tell them more than that. He had endeavoured continually to turn small families out of large cottages and to put large families into them. But what was the consequence ? Why, they shut all the children into one room and let the other, IT this asso ciation would tell them how to keep people separate who ought to be kept separate, he for, one would be much obliged to them. The hon, gentleman, in conclusion, urged the advantages of deep ploughing, and the advisa bility of granting leases for 7, 14, or 21 years. After some other complimentary toasts, the company separated. . - GRAND ROWING MATO/I.—The grand rowing match between John Mackinney, of Richmond, and Kelly, of Wham, who contended in August last at the Royal Thames National Regatta, will take place on Wed nee . day next, from Putney-bridge to Mortlake, for 2001. The event is one of great aquatic interest, and large sums of money are laid out at evens upon the result. • DEATH OF LIEUT. JOHN R. OUSELEY.— We regr e t t o bear from Kiel of the death of Lieut. John R. Ouseley, of H.M.S. Pembroke, eon of Sir W. Gore (formerly Bri tish Minister in Brazil and the River Plate) and Lady Ouseley. This promising young officer, aged 21, was landed from the Pembroke on acc mint of the extreme weakness to which . he was reduced by illness, brought on by exposure during th© bombardment of Sweaborg ; and although his father; who had been summoned by telegraph, procured the best medical aid, which for some days gave' hopes of his recovery, the disease when he landed had advanced t)o far to be overcome. His fune ral took place on the 9th at Kiel, in the presence of his father, the British and French Consuls, the captain and officers of the Danish war-steamer Hecla, and some Eng lish residents. There was no English man-of-war in the, harbour of Kiel at the time. The usual funeral honour " w:re paid by the Danish' naval authorities. ATTEMPT ON THE LIFE OF SIB HEN - BY WARD. • The Indian .Mail brings the intelligence that an at tempt has been made on the life of Sir Henry \Yard, the Governor of Ceylon, by a CiugaleEre, WilQ is represented by the local papers to be a wild-looking wretch, the very tout ememble of a ruffian, who w ou ld use th e k n if e with out the slightest compunction. He Lad been known for ms ny years as a notorious thief ; he was originally emplozzed as a canteen man in the barracks, but his thieving propensities and evil .disposition shut him out from any further employment, The Particulars of the attempt are thus giveb ' • • Miss Kate Ward, about gun-fire, on the morning .of the 7th of Svternber, Bearing a noise in her room; where she and her sister' slept, perceived a man bolting her door on the inside. He remained there some little time examining the things on the dressing and about the room. When he left the room, Miss Ward made an alarm,. on which the man picked up a knife, and after threatening her, hastened along the passage, passing the Governor's room, Just as his Excellency was coming out, alarmed by the noise, The Governor, armed with a Colt and stick, pursued him down the passage into the drawing-room, and on coming up to' him the'man turned round and came at him with the' knife. The Governer ' then fired at him, and, not wishing to kill Lim, shot him throu,;ll the shoulder, and afterwards kept him at bay, until be wa,snventually secured by the. Peons, not, how ever, until he had wounded two of tla , mi with the knife, a small table one, belonging to the hiuse, and which he picked up in the passage leading to the bedrooms. He ~only took a sheet used as a table cover, which he found in the passage, and a towel, and from his behaviour seems to be more a madman than a thief. - Had the Go vernor not been. armed with a pistol the consequences might have been very serious. He never spoke a word all the time. The man,' who is now in the hospital, has two wounds on the lower part of the neok on the left side. These do not communicate, so far as the medical men have been .;Ible'e Wascertain. It is dobbtful"Ae ther the wounds have :been produced by a bullet or, the bayonet of a soldier. He has also two other wounde, one on each side' of the wrist. ' He has a stupid look, and the:suspicion has been thrown out that he is insane; but he has been recognised as a gaol bird and as a despe rate character. He has marks on his back of former punishment. In a few days it is expected he will be able to attend the court. • ARTICLE .OF FOOD forwarded to all parts, on receipt of penny postage stamps or P. 0.0.

Y esterday the annual meeting of the Chertsey Agri cultural Association, established for the encouragement of deserving farm servants and agricultural labourers, was held'in the town of Chertsey. The proceedings, as usual on all such occasions, consisted of a ploughing match and a public dinner afterwards. The ploughing took place in fields belonging to the Rev. J. C. Clark and Mr.. J.. Bailey. in the immediate vicinity of the town, and the day being sin4ularly fine for this season of the year, a considerable number of people were at tracted to the spot. Prizes to the amount of between 201. and 301. in the aggregate were afterwards distri buted among the successful competitors. The dinner, with, which the business of the day was appropriately wound up, was held at the Town-hall at 3 o'clock ' • and among the gentlemen present were Mr. Henry Drummond, who acted as chairman, and Mr. Locke King, two of the members for the county ; Mr. Robert Gosling, the late high sheriff; Colonel Sumner, Mr. J. J. Briscoe, and Mr. NV. K. Hesseltine. The labourers also dined at the Bell Tavern. The cloth being removed, Mr. DRUMMOND. in proposing "The Queen," said— We are apt sometimes to forget that it is our duty to drink to the Sovereign, whoever that Sovereign may be; but, owing to the great virtues which surround the pre• sent Sovereign—we are in so much admiration of her virtues as a wife and a mother, that those things which are but the accessories, and which make the ornament, are ready sometimes mistaken for our loyalty itself. The toast was drunk with acclamation. _ _ Mr. DRUMUOND then gave "Prince All ert, the Prince of Wales, and the rest of the Royal family," and in doing so said the royal family was nothing more nor less than like the family of any farmer now hearing him ; and he should like to know what any one in that room would say if an impertineut neighbour, on learning that a young man had fallen in love with his (the farmer's) daughter, were to turn round and remark that it was a very improper marriage. (" Hear, hear," and a lauk„h.) Would he not instantly tell such a meddler to hold his tongue, and mind his own business ? He (Mr. Drum mond) asked simply that the same degree of forbearance should be evinced towards the domestic affairs of the royal family as a man in the position of a farmer had a right to claim. Because Mr. Walter, Mr. Delane, and Mr. Dasant said that a female member of the royal family was not to marry such and such a person, was that a reason why the marriage should not take place ? He (Mr. Drummond) said it was a most abominable act of interference ; and if they (the meeting) would not suffer such meddling by strangers with their affairs, upon the same principle they ought not to allow it in the affairs of others. (Hear, hear.) The toast of "The Bishop Clergy of the Diocese" fol lowed, to which the Rev. Mr. JENNINGS briefly re sponded. Mr. DRUMMOND said the next toast upon their list was "The Army and Navy, and those of our Allies ;" and it was very well in those postprandial speeches and cheers to profess great regard for the army and navy ; but if that was the case, how Caine it that they .(the public) encouraged all the calumnies and slanders that were spoken and published against them ? Lord Raglan was the victim last year of the most scandalous false hoods. He did not say wilful falsehoods, because the persons who uttered them could not know the facts— but they were nevertheless falsehoods ; and when Sir John M'Neill was sent out to the Crimea he made no secret in telling the whole truth, as it really was, and justified Lore Raglan in every single particular for which he was blamed during the last year. They allowed these calumnies to go on without inquiry, and they ran away propagating them abroad, and then they wondered that the people on the Conti nent had no great heart to join them in the war. He happened to be a short time in Germany during the present autumn, and one day he dined at a table d'hote, at which the company were mostly Ger mans, and all more 'or less acquainted with the English language. An English gentleman came hi, and began to talk very big about the war. He asked, among other things, why we did not bombard Odessa The reason, he said, was, that Mr. Sidney Herbert had sent out orders not to bombard Odessa, and assigning as a reason that he had some private property there. He (Mr. Drummond), addressing the gentleman in question, said he would no doubt be happy to hear so gross a ca lumny as that contradicted. He himself, he added, had seen with his own eyes a despatch written by Admiral Dundas to Admiral Hamelin, begging to be allowed to go and bombard Odessa. Hamelin referred the matter to General Canrobert, who refused to allow them to en ter upon the enterprise ; and Mr. Sidney Herbert had no more to do with the fleet not going to bombard Odessa than any gentleman in that room. The very same course was now being pursued with regard to Gene ral Simpson. What would they think of five or six general officers sitting down and dictating to the Attor ney-General, Sir FrederickThesiger, and men like them, how they should conduct a Chancery suit? On the same principle, what could so many tenth-rate lawyers in this country know about military tactics, or how to conduct a great military campaign ? And yet these were the men who had been leading the country by the nose all along. (" Hear, hear," and a laugh.) He said, if our generals and army fought our battles with Russia in a distant part of the globe, it was our duty to fight their battles at home, and to see that the calumnies to which ho had referred received no credence at our hands. (Hear.) Colonel SUMNER briefly acknowledged the compliment paid to the army and navy. Mr. R. GOSLING then gave The Members for the County." Mr. LOCKE KING, M.P., in responding to the toast, said it was a matter of great congratulation to him, see ing that he had long taken a very active par:, in the repeal of certain laws which were detrimental SAD CASE OF SUICIDE BY A MOTHER WITS AN INFANT. HEREFORD, Thur4day Evening.—The good folks of the town and neighbourhood of Kington, -in this county (on the road from London to Aberyswith, and a delight ful spot well known to tourists and invalids), were this morning thrown into a most painful state of sorrow, in consequence of the landlady of•the Oxford Arms Hotel there, an exceedingly lady-like person, and . one univer sally esteemed; hating been found (with her infant child) drowned in the River Arrow, a celebrated trout stream, running at the foot of the eminence on . which the town is built. It appears'that shortly after the confinement of the unfortunate woman, ,having• a flourishing business to attend to, which necessarily brought with it some amount of care, she went to visit a sister at Birming ham, in the hope that c h ang e o f air and excitement would prove beneficial to her health. On Tuesday she left Birmingham on her return home, and had gone as far as Leominster, wh e s h e f e lt h erse lf much indisposed, and sent a message to that'effect at Kington, in conse quence of which Mr. Evans fetched her , in a gig the same day. On Wednesday ev en i ng s h e was o b serve d t o be not so well as could be wished, and at the request of her friends a medical man was Bent for, who prescribed a sleeping draught, as it was thought that the fatigue con sequent upon sucklino , whealty child had superinduced ennui. It is believed that she took the draught shortly before retiring to rest, which was rather earlier than usual. Early this morning a charwoman going to, work ob served the front door open, and thinking, perhaps, that some one had been robbing the house,, sLe aroused the servants, who were sorely puzzled to account for it, the house being very full of company, and no one having in timated any intention of leaving early. Mr. Evans was called, and for a moment he suggested that.perhaps gentleman named Beavan, who was staying in the house, had got up early and was going shooting ; but when he found that neither his wife nor child were beside him in bed, his feelings can hardly be described. He could not guess what had happened, though he felt an indefinable misgiving hanging over him. He rose with haste, dressed himself, and at once insti tuted a strict inquiry, but no one could give him the least intelli g ence of his wife ; in fact no one had seen or heard of. erdeparture. In this state of suspense persons were sent to see if any tidings could bo gained of the unfortu nate woman, who was not heard of until about 6 o'clock, when she was found lying drowned in her,night-dress, with her child about two or three yards from-lser, in the River Arrow ' • the water at that spot not being more than two feet deep. No reason can possibly be assigned for this deed ex cept that it was committed while in a state of temporary derangement, as deceased had an excellent home and was thriving in business. ROUSES FOR THE LABOURING POOR. TO TIER EDITOR OP THE SUP. SIR,—It has given me much pleaiure in seeing that houses for the labouring poor have been brought under public consideration, and that many talented, influen'ial, and amiable individuals have given their decided opinion that better cottages should generally be built for the labourers and their families, in which opinion I most fully coincide. If this should happily take place it would be attended with much less expense than is gene rally imagined, as nearly the same ,expense is incurred in the doors, windows, and gra t es i n small rooms as in rooms of moderate size. The chief difference of expense is in the building of the cottages. I now speak of it in a pecuniary point of view, without giving an opinion of my own, as my wish is to draw the attention of the public to the subject. Suppose, for argu ment's sake only, the whole of the landed and household property of England belonged to one individ ua l, an d he would, consequently, be, obliged to pay all the poor rates, county rates ' all expenses attend ing tr ansportat i on, &c., would he or would he not find it his interest to build them all, or nearly all, larger cottages, as pure air is so conducive to health ; they would then learn more self-respect from their infancy, there would be fewer invalids sent to the differenc unions, less number of persons transported, and fewer cases come before the magistrates ; the head or father of the family, finding his house more comfortable, would become more domestic. I now speak of houses for the labouring poor in large manufacturing towns. There is no necessity for the whole of the labouring poor to live near the manufactories, comfortable houses could be built for them at some distance from the town, and I would strongly recommend, if possible, it should be on or by the side of a hill. Owing to the elevation you would then, in a great degree, avoid the exhalations of the earth at night, which is detrimental to health. The labourer would consequently always have pure water for his coffee or tea, breath pure air after his return home every night and on Sundays, and they and their families would most probably enjoy that invaluable. blessing, good health. The workmen of the different manufac tories could go every morning and return every evening by the railroad, at a trifling expense. I would recommend the manufacturers, merchants, clergymen, &c., to form building societies with limited liability. The houses could be let to the labourers at a fair and moderate rent, and there is a great probability that they would receive a fair return arising from this investment ; but even if this should n o t h e th e case , th e y will have the pleasing satisfaction of knowing that they have increased the comforts, and consequently the hap piness, of so many of their fellow-countrymen. Hoping to hear shortly this desirable improvement has taken place to a considerable extent,—l remain, sir, your obedient servant, MERCATOR. October 17, 1855. STEAM TRAFFIC WITH GERMANY, FRANCE, AND THE UNITED STATES. The American steamer Ericsson left Southampton yes terday for New York, with 150 passengers, a French and German mail, and a large cargo. Bonds were en tered into by the commander to be answerable for da mages which an English court of law might adjudge her liable to in consequence of her coming into collision with a collier in the Straits of Dover, whereby damage was done to the collier, and one of her crew lost his life. The Ericsson belongs to Messrs. Dunham and Son, mer chants, of New York. .Another steamer is abeut to be put on the same line—viz , that of Bremen, Southamp ton, and New York—by the same parties. New steamers are about to be built in America, ini the room of the Wallington and Hermann. These steamers are to be 4,000 tons burden, and to be propelled'by paddle-wheels. They wilt be larger than the gigantic steamer Himalaya, the largest in the world. Vanderbilt is also about to put on a steamer of similar tonnage, to run on the Havre, Southampton, and New York line. There will shortly be eight first-eass steamers running between Bremen, Havre, and New York. The Havre Steamers do not touch at Southampton, hut call at Cowes to drop and take in their English mails, passengers, and cargo. The Bremen steamers call at Cowes for a similar purpose on their voyages to Bremen, and at Southampton on their voyages to New York. The object of calling at Cowes is to avoid the light, river, pilot, and dock clues, charge able on their coming to Southampton. The Bremen steamers are obliged to call, however, at the latter port on their homeward voyages to take on board the large French cargoes for Arnetica which aro there w aiting for them. Small steamers run betwe en Southampton and Cowes to tend on the American one, and to convey to and fro their English mails, passengers, and eargoT he of Americans have now..completely secured a between monopoly Ger the immense passenger and good- , traffic many, France, and the United State. 4, and all attempts to draw it away to Liverpool have failed. //f [PRICE 4D. STAMPED SD• DEPARTL7T OF THE REFUGEES FROM J,.ERSELY. ' The condu3torg of the publication entitled L'Bontine left Jersey ,on. Wednesday night, and took refuge in Guernsey. Previous to their departure a mob, car ryin sticks; assembled before their door. -a large. number of Fret ch refugees were inside,• well armed and prepared to defend themselves, but happily the police in terfered and prevented a 'collision. • At a public meeting, held at the Hall of Science; City road, on Thursday evening, /it r.. - Buott in the chair', .Mr. , ERNEST JONES called the attention of the meet hg to the proceedings at Jersey,. and maintained that the objectiOnal)le passageS in the letter published in L'llomnie had no reference personally to her Majesty, of whom he spoke in the highest terms, his language being responded to by the' meeting, but only 'acre a political sense.

(From yesterday's Monitear.) Admiral Bruat, Cymmautter-in-Chief of ' the French naval forces' in the Black Sea, has Teceided from Marshal Pelissier the communication of an order of the day, in which the Commander-in- Chief of our army in the East addresses his con gratulation's to the landing corps of seamen detached for the siege of Sebastopol. Admiral Lyons has also transmitted to Admiral Bruat the expression of the sentiments entertained by the Lords of the Admiralty of the harmony which has not ceasad to prevail between the Allied Admirals since the commencement of the operations. The following are copies of these documents : GENERAL 'ORDER. • , Soldiers,—The brave seamen of Admiral Bruat's squadron, who landed in order to share our dan gers and labours, are about to leave us. The Russian seamen of flew Black Sea, who bad not dared to contend with them on their own ele- Ment, have come to knoW them before the walls of Sebastopol. As for 'you, you' know very well, during. the whole period of this long and difficult siege, that they, with their oomrades of the land artillery, have given proofs of courage, .constancy, and res6lution in the service cif their numerous and powerful batteries. ) It was with pleasure and confidence that we re ceived them amongst us ; it iS with regret that we see the moment of separation arrive. A reciprocal union and esteem, formed on the field of battle, binds us closely to these brave sea men, to their valiant officers, to their worthy chief near-Admiral Rigault de *enouilly. We shall meet them again, let us hope, and then, as now, : the fleet and the army, the seaman- and the soldier, will have only one thought, the - glory of their country ; only one sentiment, devotion to the Emperor.

It is to this happy good un- ti clerstanding.and to the cordial co-operation of the ci officers and crewel of the two fleets that their lord- -n ships attribute the success which -lies constantly b attended our naval operations in the Black Sea and u the Sea of AzOff. Their lordships charge me to transmit their thanks to your Excelleney, and also to the officers and crews placed under your orders. I have never had, my dear colleague, a more agreeable duty to perform, not one harmonising more with my own sentiments, or with those of the officers and crews of tlio. drat wl4,iseb-,1 have the honour to command. By the following order of the day Admiral Bruat has made known to the squadron these flattering testimonials to our navy : ORDER OF THE DAY. Addressed on the 6th of October to the Mediter ranean Squadron. The Admiral commanding-in-chief hastens to make known to all the ships of the Mediterranean squadron the general order in which the Marshal commanding-in-chief the army of the East ad dresses to the landing corps of seamen the precious testimony of his high esteem and confidence. The squadron most joyfully see those valiant brothers in arms, who have shared with heroic con stancy the labours and dangers of an army of which France is proud, returning to their midst. Shc will thank them for having upheld so high, during the trials of this long siege, the flag of the navy, and will receive with a just feeling of pride the tribute of glory which they bring. These aro, indeed, the noble traditions which make the strength and honour of a corps ; these are the examples which ought to inspire a generOus rivalry. The Admiral commanding-in-chief ad dresses his congratulations to the officers, under officers, seamen, and marines of the landing corps. Ho testifies to their brave chief, Roar-Admiral Ri gault de Genouilly, his entire satisfaction with the energetic ardour which he has infused into all this noble devotion, and he eagerly embraces this op partunity of addressing to him this fresh assurance of his affection and esteem. BRITAT. SPAIN ANIP THE WESTERN POWERS. SPEECH OF GENERAL O'DONNELL. The following is a speech delivered by General O'Donnell, Minister of War, at the sitting of the Cortes on the 12th of October : M. Orense has just been thundering away against France, England, and everybody. I do not wish to an swer these harsh attacks ; I confine myself to observing that great events are taking place in Europe, which may bring on a general war. More than people think or desire, it is undoubted that a day may come when our own interest may compel us to take part in the struggle. If M. Orense imagines that a nation can remain isolated when Europe is engaged in a sanguinary contest, he de ceives himself ; be thinks like the man who believes be has only to be peacefully disposed to avoid the chance of teing involved in an affair of honour. It is with na tions as with individuals, they often cannot avoid fight ing, however pacific they may be. Do you know what would happen if we were to carry out to the extreme this system of isolation ? Sooner or later we should be despised by all, and other countries would make war upon us. When the government shall deem it fitting, it will frankly submit this question to the Cortes ; until then I shall not say another word upon the subject. But I cannot pass over in silence M. Orense's observa tions when speaking of nations that prove every day their attachment to Spain. France has never, even in the time of Louis Philippe, proved more religiously than she is now doing all her sympathies for Spain ; she has always maintained—she now maintains —the s r ictest vigilance at the Pyrenees. England has lately offere d us ships for transpo r ti ng our t roo p s t o Africa. Although t that t offers we do not require them, w e oug ht n ot the lesson account to express all our gratitude for the . and services of friendly nations—nations whom M. Orense never fails to attack whenever he can find a n oppor tunity. In his opinion, the government oug ht to take a very liberal course. I flatter myself t hat lam very end that at a, ~ wa y as M. Orense. liberal, though not exactly in the sam ares, I signed the programme of Manzan liberals returned to their not time when many soi-disant tell treading' in shalllst homes and looked out for the . Messiah. But I will M. Orense that the path , b h e o u l t s el be afraid:. of ' into despotism, follow, because it I did I and at last inarchy, unlbling down a precipice into anarchy; e l, as I do i which I detest quite As 'nu WEST INDas.—The West India mail has brought to rn SY dne Y , la Panama, one day later— namely, th e 6th of JuiY.

Ai'npo rt cc'o‘rding, to the Sydney IlePald, the duty on tobacco is t „ be increased to the extent of 50 per cent. Upon the other articles of the existing tariff the increase is 100 per cent., with the exception of dried fruits, on which the charge is to be raised from Id. to 2d. per 1b... The articles which have been added to the tariff are salt, vinegar, soap, candles, and timber. Upon salt the duty is put at 2s. per cwt. ; on vinegar, is, per gallon ; on soap, 4F, p er cwt. ; on candles, 2d. per lb. ; on timber, in bulk or sawn, 2s. per 100 cubic feet ; on shingles and laths, 2s. per 1,000. The total Customs' receipts under the new system would be estimated at 673,000/. Pub• leans' licences are to be increased in the annual fee from 301. to 601., and the, former light dues charged upon shipping are to be re-imposed. 7 T FORTIFICATIONS I:ODESSA. 4 - - gif A setter from Odessa, of th e 6th, gives the fol• lowing particulars as to the defensive works lately erected in that city, as well as in those of Oczakoff, Kinburn, and the environs : "Our merchants have observed with some uneasiness that, since the Ist of this month, two of the six war steamers uf the allies, which maintained so strict a blockade here all the summer, have weighed anchor and stood out to sea. Tee departure of those vessels was attributed to an extraordinary motive. It was generally believed that they were going to meet a formidable naval force, about - to aptlear before our city, and expose it a second 7 :11r4 %4:) . the horrors of a - bombardment. The greatest alarm is visible on. every countenance, notwithstand- . ing the air of confidence assumed by the military authorities. If this second misfortune should occur to complete the ruin of our commerce, the magnificent palace of Prince Wnronzoff would be the first build' ing knocked to - pieces by the fire of the Allies. - Our military engineers have done their utmost to save it ' from destruction. They have planted six howitzers on a height close to the wall which separates the Prince's garden from the Boulevard. The thickness of the wedi has been doubled, and embrasures bare teen opened i n it • to enable a battery of field artillery plac'ed in the Palace 'Gust to play on the assailants. Besides the large battery of St pieces erected last. April, a second bat tery, !of semicircular form, containing 12 guns, and com manding the roadstead, has been also erected. Iris hoped that the ;atter will be, sufficient to prevent_any hos tile vessel from entering the military pert. Since sum mer the military engineers have constructed a new bat tery of 12 pieces of the largest calibro on the ground to the west of the colonnade, which will sweep all the apPrciaches in the direction of the Peresip. There are hesideS,' at intervals along the garden _terrace; . piece/ of heavy calibre, which may at a moment's policy be brought 'forward and farm a second flying battery of sixteen guns. I have been informed by per sons ,in the rolomiss.triat at Nicelaieff and Kheison that passage between Kinburn and Oczakoff has been 'rendered quite impracticable. Upwards of 50 boats', laden with large stones and fragments of rocks have been sunk along the channel over a space of at 'neat two versts, a narrow canal only having been left, for navigation. Thus vessels wishing to enter the Li man ' ill have to p ass qu it e c l ose to t h e fortifications, • unde the very guns o f Ki n b urn. T he l atter i s re gard d as a fortress of th e fi rs t c l ass , owing; to the im mens Works thrown up around s i nce th e l an di ng of thu Hies in the Crim - ea, The same process has bden igone through at the en t ra n ce o f th e Bug, which is flunked by two _ large_ batteries on either __side, All the vessels the Russians could procure have been 4unkithere, and no boat, however light its draught of water may he, eaal 'enter the river. Only one eery nar row passage now remains open fOr the Russian.. boats ._ which proceed from Nicolaiaff to Eherson, Ki'aaburo,. . Oczakoff, and sometimes even .to Odessa, on ntilitary service ; but on the first appearance of danger, am im men+ mass of stones, rocks, &c., heaped up slot tg the shore, will be thr own i nto the passage in order to ;stock it up completely." 'OWES, ISLE OF WIGHT.--Oct. 19. I (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) CciwEs CAsTLE.-=-The Marquis Conyngham has, am hear, taken this beautiful marine residence of the Go vernment, on a 21 years' lease; but as some of the mem bers of the Royal Yacht Squadron come time back ex presied a wish to obtain it for a club-house for the Squa dron; hittlordAlp hawtMo - stlialidsomely arm - 13d it to the R.Y.IS. As the Castle does not contain half the accom modition that the club requires, it is generally believed that ithe majority of the members will prefer the Old club-house. - COWES HARBOUR.—TO WHOM DOES THE SOIL BELONGS —4' 'r son e y, ar,, the corporation of Newport bas exer c sedi a control over Cowes Harbour, asserting that " thbed and soil of it, from high-water mark on one side 40 high-water mark on the other side, was the pro pert3i of the - mayor, aldermen, and burgesses of the boroigh of Newport." No one (not being a corporation man) could make any erection on it, or even drive a stake into the gravelly banks of the . harbour, without first obtaining th consent of the corporation of New pbrt,l or being threatened with an action by them for trespassing on their- property, though the party or his forefathers might have purchased the sakrproperty years befoie. Tne inhabitants of Cowes disputed this inter ferebce of the authorities of an inland town with the wan s and requirements of a seaport. Some few years ago his corporation brought an action against the late Mr. K. H. Ward or constructing-the landing-place at IG the tt.nntain Wharf, but they could not succeed iu their vishbs to oblige him to remove it, and from that time mylhave confined - themselves to threats and abstained ~ on suits at law. A shbrt time since they threatened ) bung an action against the Trinity Beard to oblige ieril to remove the landing-place they had had eon ;meted to facilitate the landing of the Queen and suite on the Royal yachts, but they have not actually corn lanced proceedings. Now the Admiralty has taken ie inattbt into their hands, and, in consequence of some ' =plaints, have sent an officer (Captain Scott) down to po t on some encroachments, and al s o o n some grave l an s which obstruct the navigation at low wat er . W e tad rstand that a dredging-machine will b e sen t d own f ;0 remove; therbanks. This will put the question to an - Issue. t C OSING OF GRASTYARDg.—In consequence of notices havi g been served on the churchwardens of Northwond tha no interments would be allowed in the churchyard afte the Ist of May, 1857, nor in that of Cowes chu rc h of the Ist of May, 1856,.a,burial board was elected by the entry to purchase a piece of laird for future inter- 3 _wen s, which they yesterday did, very desirably situated onto east side of the Newport-road o at about one mile distance from the centre of West .Cowes. It consists of 3i acres of meado3v land and a quarter of an acre of wood. The price agreed on for the former was 751. per acre, and at the rate of 501. per acre for the latter. It has a large frontage to the main road. THE MONEY MARKET. The aivices frcin Paris this morning state that the advance of the rate of discount yesterday by the Bank of France was not resolved upon until the telegraph re ported the alteration on this side, when it was adopted to preserve the equilibrium between the two countries, no change having other wise been intended. If this be correct, it is an additional proof of the salutary course of the Bank of England, since it is only by the adherence of the Bank of France to those vigorous measures, the early neglect of which has caused much of the present embarrassment, that the danger of further difficulties can be averted. The discount-market in Paris, however, seems to be less unsettled than in London, since, from the mercantile letters received to-day, it appears that good bills can be negotiated a half per cent. below this Bank rate. It is understood that the prevailing high rates of dis count have already had the effect of cawing c-nsiderable amounts of foreign stock to be sent to the Continent for sale. A further favourable circumstance consists in the fact that some portion of the recent drain from the Bank 3f England has arisen simply from a demand on the part of the Scotch, Irish, and .other provincial banks, In this manner a large parcel of sovereigns has been taken away to-day, and it is believed that the total ab sorbed in these channels during the past month or two beyond the usual am .unt is little short of a million ster ling, the means for procuring such extra funds having in several instances been obtained by sales of Exchequer bills or Stock, On the other band, against these re-as suring circunistences must be set a rumour that the B ink of France are desirous of procuring an additional 2,000,000/. in gold, and that the future Australian arri vals are likely to be purchased to supply it. The mode, however, in which the credit is to be arranged is not stated, and. it would be satisfactory if it could be hopEd that the alteration yesterday in the French rate of dis count may be found sufficient to accomplish what is de sired, and that the plan, if it has been entertained, will be rescinded. The peculiar evil of such artificial rnea sures is that in 'both countries the reaction from them must be as mischievous as their first effects, since an unnatural rebound on one side is as mu ch to be depre cated as the ultimate increase of anx iet y that must be felt on the other.—Tinza City Article. --- SHILLIG: ~,p Ay.. 7 Fri- CP.YSTAL PALACE.
