It may be remembered that the New York Herald some time ago stated that Sir James Fer gusson, the member for Ayrshire, had acted the part of a spy, and had conveyed messages from this country to Jeff. Davis, the President of the Confe derate States, Sir James, who has just returned home after a tour through Canada and the States, thus rebuts the accusation : i "Ayr, N ov . 12 , 18el. "Sir,—Since my return from Ame r i ca my atten tionavng has been called to the fact that a p aragraph from i a New carried York despatches e newspaper, spate h e o rin chargingtel g me with ence to or h from the Government of the Southern Confederacy, has been noticed by the journals in this country. It even seems to have been imagined that I had committed some acts which, in the present excited state of public feeling in the Northern States, might have subjected me to detention or annoyance. Had I not the honour to hold an office in connection with this county, which entitles the public within it to an interest in my good name, I should not have thought it necessary to notice publicly such idle tales, nor shall Ido so elsewhere. But al though I feel confident that to all who know me here no contradiction is requisite, lest any may think it due I beg to state explicitly that, in the whole course of my interesting andinstruotive tour, I meddled in no way in the affairs of the Northern and Southern States. Travelling solely with a view to inform myself upon the momentous ques tion at issue, I committed no act which did not be become a foreigner and a private individual. I complied with every regulation, however excep tional, and did not attempt to cross the frontier into the Southern States till 1 had called upon the Federal general in command of the department, and obtained his free and willing sanction to my doing so. It is not my fault that. a New York journalist was incapable of understanding that a gentleman could enjoy the confidence of the commanders on. both sides without abusing that of either. I would, however, add that the libel of the New York Herald was the only exception to the uniform and remark able courtesy which I had the pleasure of receiving from every person, of whatever rank, with whom I came in contact, whether in the ' United' or ' Con federate' States.—l am, &c., " JAMES FERGUSSON." THE GALES. The returns received at Lloyd's show that the gale on Wednesday evening told with serious effect on various points of the coaet. l An intimation has been received to the effect that another storm may be expected to sweep the northern part of the United Kingdom about Tues day nest, and the usual notice has been forwarded to the harbour authorities in order that shipmasters and fishermen may be warned. A correspondent from Shields, on Thursday afternoon, says :—The sea is rapidly rising on the coast, and from the manner that small craft are making for the harbour, bad weather is being ex perienced out at sea. The Britannia steamship and about half a dozen small vesselihave.reached this port. Yesterday forenoon about half a dozen small collier vessels sailed hence for London—others of a similar tonnage were ready, but it is stated that their masters, from the appearance of the weather, refused to go out to sea. There is a large fleet of colliers lying in the Tyne ready for sea. The col lier vessels that left the Tyne the night before the gale of this month, and have not since been heard of,: were the Friend's Good-will, of North Shields (not Whitby, as before reported); the William and Thomas, of South Shields ; the Stella' of North Shields ; the Perseverance, of Scarborough, and the Emma, of Staiths. Not very far short of 40 hands of all sorts woald form the crews of those vessels, and there is too much reason to fear that every soul of them has perished. At any rate the least thread of hope is becoming more and more attenuated every day, and if no news come of the poor fellows by the end of the week they will have to be given up. And at eight o'clock he writes— Since I sent of my despatch the storm has become worse, and the sea has increased in violence. It has been a fearful afternoon. At our harbour's mouth, the Phoenix, of Aberdeen, with coals from Hartlepool ; the Albion, of Aberystwith, with wheat from Stettin; and a Dutch ves sel, the Anna Catharine, have been driven ashore. The Tyne pilots, with lifeboats, at great risk saved the crews of the two former vessels, and the coastguard the crew of the latter with rockets. All were saved except the mate of the Phoenix and the mate of the Anna Catharine, the two latter poor fellows being drowned. The storm is as violent as ever. It is likely to be an awful night at sea. A correspondent from Hartlepool (Thursday) says :—A strong gale from N.E. prevails. The vessels Forsythe and Concord, of South Shields, ashore. The crews safe. A schooner, name un known, down, gone and all hands lost, in sight of the harbour. The billyboy Willan, of Hull, ashore at Seaton Carew; crew saved by the lifeboat. Other vessels are making for the harbour. The Euxine brig, of Hartlepool, is on her beam ends, and the crew is supposed to be drowned. A Sunderland correspondent says about noon on Thursday a brig was seen making for the harbour, and she got up safely to within a short distance of the entrance when a heavy sea struck the rudder. The captain, who was steering, was pulled aside, and struck with great violence by the tiller, which hurled him against the vessel's bulwarks. Being thus deprived of her steersman, the vessel was at the mercy of the wind and sea, which immediately swept her past the piers and drove her on shore a little to the south of the entrance. She proved to be the Messenger, John Snarp, master, of Sunder land, from Hamburgh, in ballast. A rocket was fired by the Commissioners men, who were in attendance with tho apparatus, but the line fouled and broke. The crew then threw overboard their life-buoy, with a line attached, and the buoy being washed ashore a cable was made fast in the usual way, and the men drawn safely to th e s h ore . The first man saved was the captai n , who was found to be very much injured. Hi s l egs were b ro k en , an d his head and body very much bruised. He was conveyed to his ewn home. The vessel had her hull and sails damaged, and was very much strained. REJECTION 0.? CHURCH-RATE AT 71 7 .1 7 1310ED1L127L The proceedings at the Wymondham Vestry meeting on the Bth inst., when a Church-rate was rejected by an overwhelming majority, reflect credit on both parties :—on the voluntary party for mustering in such strength and displaying so much union and determination, and on the vicar and churchwardens for the conciliatorya minn and e pe d ac t e h ab es l e e spirit which they evinced. We co proceedings to the imitation of other parishes, far and near, Let Dissenters be everywhere as prompt and as o utspoken, and Churchmen everywhere as unwilling to keep up discord, and Church-rates will be speedily abolished, to the great relief and satf e ac y tio ic n ar of o a f ll m p , y ar tnn ti o es aham will learn, as others of his clericil brethern have learned, that it is not to the interest o f th e Ch urc h o f E ng l an d t o vex andirritate Dissenters, nor is it consistent with the generous and free spirit of Christianity for its ministers to assume lordship, and ride roughshod over other communions. Dissenters arc too strong, and in regard to their fundamental principle of re ligious liberty, too much in the right to succumb to intolerance, or to permit Churchmen to treat them as an inferior caste. If in other towns Church-rates IA ere as earnestly resisted as they were at WY mondham last week, Sir John Trelawny need not trouble himself to bring in his Bill again—the people would have accomplished for themselves what Parliament has hitherto refused to do for them. WERE THEY PIPERS?—The Temps informs us that " Six Scotch gentlemen who had the honour to receive her Majesty the Empress during her trip to Scotland last year arrived recently at the Palace of Compiegne, where they were presented to the Emperor. They, as likewise their servants, wore the national dress." [ADVERTISEMENT.j—HoIIoway's Pills. Weakness, Wasting.—How many persons suffer from debility without patient was daily knowing the cause !

The object of this undertaking is to provide means of trans port at the terminal and intermediate stations along the lines of the Indian railways and steamers, similar to the establish ments of Messrs. Pickford and Co. and others engaged in, connection with the various lines of rail Ways in Great Bri tain, collecting for despatch by rail, and distributing on its arrival the enormous amount of merchandise and produce conveyed upon these lines, for which the existing primitive native means of conveyance bybullock hackery are totally in • adequate, and the native carriers possessing neither the capi tal, skill, nor enterprise required to organise the system necessary for the purpose. Messrs. Picktord and Co. have liberally placed at the Board's disposal all the valuable information which their long and successful experience enables them to supply, and have otherwise rendered to the Company and promised to continue all the assistance in their power. Estimates, carefully prepared, based on a comparison of the outgoings and returns of similar establishments in Eng land, with the present Indian rates, after making due allow ance for the additional expense of European superintendence and improved stock, and liberal deductions on account of de preciation and renewals, show a profit fully equal to 25 per cent. upon the capital employed. These estimates have been made upon the safe principle of calculating the expenditure in excess of what is anticipated, and the returns at the lowest existing scale of charges ; and they are based upon the as sumption that only about 104,000 tons are carried annually by the Company at all their stations, while the export trade of Calcutta alone, for one year, exceeded 725,000 tons. A deposit of 10s. per share must be made on application, and 10s. on allotment. If na allotment is made, the deposit will be returned without deduction. Payments may be made at the Head Office of' the London and County Bank, or at any_ of its Bran c h es.

" Dr. rickford is known to English readers by his frequent practical contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the last, if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his power to correcf."—Londo n Medical Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on 'the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrheea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular. " We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pfckford ; but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."— Dublin Medical Press.

On the signal being made from the flagship "Man gunboats," each one told off will col lect together his sea kit, and, whatever may be the duty upon which at the moment he may be engaged, will at once proceed in the ship's boat to the gunboat on board of which he has been warned to hold him self in readiness to serve. The two first manned will then immediately take in a month's provisions, which will be held in readiness for them, and when complete will be succeeded by the remainder. As soon as the provisioning is completed. the whole force will be at once ready for any service, home or foreign. Each boat carries a 40-pounder Armstrong forward, and a 100-pounder Armstrong aft; with shot and all the necessary stores, except powder, which will be sent to them on the signal to man the boats being made. The Comus, 14-gun sloop, belonging to the first division of the sailing reserve ordinary, was yester day removed from her moorings at the Rochester reach, Chatham, and towed down to the dockyard, where she was placed alongside the hydraulic crane in order to have her ballast and heavy stores re moved, previously to her being broken up by the convicts. The Comus is a very old vessel, and for some time has been considered unfit for further ser- vice. The work of fitting the iron steam frigate De fence, 18, is progressing very fast at Chatham, a numerous body of mechanics and artisans being employed in completing what remains to be done in connection with the various departments of the vessel. The work is being performed by the dock yard hands, the Admiralty having entered into an arrangement with Messrs. Palmer Brothers to complete the fitting of the steamer, in order that as little time as possible may be lost in getting her 'to sea. Yesterday the screw steamer Normandy arrived from the Tyne with stores for the Defence, and afterwards shipped a quantity of superfluous iron from on board that steamer. A number of painters yesterday commenced painting the exte rior of the Defence, in No. 3 dock. The following notification has been issued from the Admiralty . " There exists a vacancy for the admission into Christ's Hospital of the son of a lieutenant in the Royal Navy, between seven and ten years of age, and born in lawful wedlock. Preference will be given to the sons of such officers as have been killed ty the public enemy or in the ser vice; but, if no application be made on behalf of a son of a deceased lieutenant within six months, the son of a living lieutenant in low circumstances will be selected within the next three months. All applications to be addressed to the Secretary of the Admiralty, Whitehall, S.W." The following appointments were made yester day at the Admiralty :—Commander Edward Lacy, of the Castor, as additional for service in the Presi• dent; Mr. Ge.o. W. Allen, sub-lieut., to the Marl borough; J. H. Keane, chief engineer, to the Phaeton, vice Miller, superseded ; S. Harrison, first class assist.-engineer, vice Nurse, to the Asia, for hospital treatment; Joseph Halpin, assist.-surgeon, to the Rifleman ; Peter Comrie, assist.-surgeon, to the Edgar ; William Warburton, paymaster, to the Castor, for the President ; Frederick B. Williams, assist.-paymaster, to the Revenge ; Robert Dim widdie, clerk, to the Emerald ; and Alfred G. Roberts, clerk, to the Nile, as supernumerary. THE A.RMI . The Earl de Grey and Ripon, Under-Secretary of State for War, accompanied by Major-General Tulloh, Director-General of Ordnance, and Sir W. Armstrong, K.C.8., yesterday paid an official visit to the Royal gun factories of Woolwich Arsenal. Having been receives by Mr. J. Anderson, resident superintendent of the department, they proceeded to the forge, and witnessed the process of winding and welding one of the coils used in the formation of the Armstrong guns. They next visited the finish ing shops, whence the guns are now being turned out at the rate of 30 per week—namely, 10 100- pounders and 20 12-pounders. Atter examining the sighting of the guns, they proceeded to the store, and inspected the new shunt gun fitted with the wedge breech-loading arrangement, by which the gun is fired three times per minute. A 20-pounder gun, made by the celebrated Krupp, of Essen, in Prussia, and which burst at proof, on Saturday last, at the second round, was pointed out to his lordship. The bore and rifling of this gun are on the Armstrong principle, but the breech arrange ment is similar to that used in the Prussian guns. the visitors, before returning to London, attended the proof of a batch of 100-pounder guns at the butt. The War-office authorities have issued a circular with reference to smart money paid by recruits, from which we extract the following :—" With re ference to the regulations quoted in the margin, regarding the release of recruits from their enlist ment on payment of smart money, the Secretary of State for War has decided that from this date the distribution of smart money shall be as follows : To the recruiting party, 9s. Gd., to the public 10s. 6d., the difference of ls. being intended to meet the charge for the fee payable, under sec. 44 of the Mutiny Act, to the magistrates' clerk for reporting the smart. The smarts should, however, be brought to credit in the public account at the full rate of 20s. each, the payment to the recruiting party and the fee to the magistrates' clerk being charged under the proper headings." We understand that in a few days a grand dis play is likely to take place at Aldennott. A com bined attack is to be made on the fortifications at Hungry-hill, which will be mounted with Arm strong guns. Pickets, patrols, and outposts will be thrown out, extending from the Royal Arms to the Lower Farnham Road. Tho present strength of the camp at Colchester is 66 officers, and 1,600 non-commissioned officers, privates, and drummers, and 100 men in hospital. The number of officers absent from the camp on leave is about 100. The prisoner Henry Warder, who was recently tried by General Court-martial at Chatham, on a charge of having deserted from the 17th Lancers in the Crimea, in 1855, during the war with Russia, has been released from custody, the Court before which he was tried having, it is understood, acquitted him.
