TRIESEMAR No. 1,2, and 3, prepared in the form of a lozenge devoid of taste or smell, and can bo carried in the waistcoat pocket sold in tin cases, divided into separate doses, as administered by Valpeau, Lallemand, Roux, Ricord, &c., &c. TRIESEMAR No. 1 is a Remedy for RE LAXATION, SPERMATORRIBE A, and all the distressing consequences arising from early abuse, indiscriminate excesses, or too long residence in hot climates. It has restored bodily and sexual strength and vigour to thousands of debilitated individuals who are now in the enjoyment of health and the Functions of Manhood; and whatever may be the cause for DISQUALIFICATIONS for MAR- It lAGE, they are effectually subdued by this Wonderful Discovery. TRIESEMAR No. H., effectually, in the short space of three days, completely and entirely eradicates all traces of Gonorrhoea, both in its mild and aggravated forms, Meets, Strictures, Irritation of the Bladder, Non-retention of Urine, Pains of the Loins and Kidneys, and those disorders which Copaivi and Cubebs have so long been thought an antidote for, to the ruin of the health of a vast portion of the population. TRIESEMAR No. 111., Is the great Continental Remedy for Syphilis and Secondary Symp toms. It also constitutes a certain Cure for Scdrvy, Scrofula, and all Cutaneous Eruptions, removing and expelling in its course all corrup tions and impurities from the vital stream, as altogether to eradicate the virus of disease, and expell it with the insensible perspiration through the medium of the pores of the skin and urine, and is a never-failing remedy for that class of disorders which unfortunately the English Physician treats with Mercury, to the inevitable destruc tion of the patient's constitution, and which all the sarsaparilla in the world cannot restore.

Harter, of Broughton Hall, Lancashire, purchas e d i n 1852 an estate of some 1,500 acres, lying for about three miles along the verge of the Shannon, and contiguous to the bridge of Banagher. The estate of Esker was at this time a deplorable condition. Like other properties in the county of Galway, it had been under the manage ment of the courts, and little or no inulgenoe could be extended, who were for the most part living in poverty and ignorance. Mr. Harter paid for the estate the sum of 8,0001, and he has since expended in im provements about 4,C00/. more. On taking p ossess i on Mr. Harter directed that no one should be evicted, though the property was cut up into small tenements, several detached and irregular holdings belonging to one tenant. The farms were all re-mot:lord, and encourage ment in the shape of substen:,ial aid given to every tenant to improve his residence and offices. As a pre liminary improvement draining was extensively set on foot, and a number of leading arteries were at once cut at Mr. Hartet's expense, forming outlets for the super abundant moisture, without which the drainage could not have been effected. New mule have been made, opening up the estate, and giving vrtue to the land which it was impossible forme-iy to reach. Every cottage and farmhouse is neatly whitewashed, and the old Irish habit of collecting a manure heap or a cesspool at the entrance to each hss been entirely discontinued. Par ties who saw this property 20 years ago would scarcely recognise it now, so great a change has been effected in four short years. Ths swamps and morasses have been converted into excellent land, and the callows have been so much improved as to be worth tr- , 1 e their former value. One field formerly let for 251. a-year now brings 701.—Ballinusloe Star. ABDUCTION EXTRAORDINARY.—The abduction of a wife by her own husband is related in the Berkshire Chronicle. Some months ago Mrs. Cherry, wife of the rector of Burghfield (about four miles from Reading), left her husband's house, domestic differences having led to this separation. Mr. Cherry made repeated efforts to induce her to return to his house, but in vain. On Sun day evening, in St. G . iles's Ch urc h, t h e rev, gent l eman attended divine service, sitting a few yards from the pew which the lady and her friends usually occupy. At its conclusion he proceeded to the pew door, and on Mrs. Cherry's egress he took hold of her, and compelled her to accompany him into the vestry. The vicar (Mr. Grain ger) and other gentlemen hastened thither, and Mr. Cherry made an excited appeal to his brother clergyman, as a friend, to use his influence to promote a reunion. This was declined, and the lady retired alone into the vicarage, her husband, after some hesitation, retir ing to go home. So matters stood until Monday morn• ing last. About 9 o'clock Mr. Cherry proceeded with his solicitor (Mr. F. M. Slocombe), Superintendent Peck of the borough police, and two constables in plain clothes, into Southampton•street. The professional gen tleman and the superintendent went up the steps, and knocked at the door. They were admitted, and the door was closed. Presently one of them reopened it, and sig nalled to Mr. Cherry, who rushed into the house, fol lowed closely by his gar d ener . All this could not be done in so populous a thoroughfare without attracting some spectators. They heard a great bustle and confusion in the house, and loud screaming. The gardener came to the door and beckoned to the coachman, who in stantly drove up to the outer gate. In the midst of the screaming the lady was seen to emerge into the pas-age, without bonnet or shawl ; on one side of her was the gardener, on the other Sup er i ntendent Peck, an d b e hi n d Mr. Cherry, assisting, and thus conveyed her, not with out con , idtrable force, owing to her res i s t an ce, down the steps. At this point the l a d y cried out in a d i stracte d manner, " Is there no one to save me ?" but she was hurried through the !rout garden into the carriage. Mr. Cherry followed her in, Mr. Peck mounted on the box, , the coachman drove up the hill towards Whitley, and they proceeded to Burghfeeld Rectory. (:\ o , 20,046.) * PUBLICATIONS.

Mechi and Keats, have resolved that their year of office shall be marked not only by hospitality but by a tasteful splendour in their equipage, wholly denuded of that gaudy display by which they were formerly characterised, The state robes and liveries have just been completed at the establishment of Messrs. J. and D. Nicoll, of Regent-street. The robes aro the scarlet state and violet official for the two sheriffs, each trimmed with costly sable, and the clerical robes for the sheriffs' chaplains. Mr. Sheriff Mechi's liveries are composed of coats of rich Genoa velvet, in colour of a beautiful bright green, and lined with white silk, decorated with massive gold lace and elaborately -worked gold em broidery ; the pattern, branches of oak, with leaves and acorns intertwined with the convolvulus flower. From the shoulder depends a noble bullion aigu'llette,terminated with bulbs and tassels in lieu of the usual pendants. The vests and nether gar ments are of superfine white cassimere, having gold lace borderings to correspond. The state hats are of the finest beaver, fringed with green and white ostrich-feather trimming. The buttons on the re spective garments bear the arins and motto of Mr. Mechi, surrounded by his crest, a plough. The state liveries for Mr. Sheriff Keats consist of oo ats of a brillia n t bl ue superf i ne cloth, having linings of white silk, elega n t b or d er i ngs of s i lver lace, within which are reliefs oVembroidery ln sil 'c'er bullion, tastefully arranged, and displaying branches of laurel with leaves and fruit, further or namented with massive aiguilettes in silver. The state hats, also of fine beaver, have elegant silver loopings, &c., with a border of white and blue ostrich-feather trimming, and the vests, arc., are of white cassimere, decorated with silver lace. The arms, crest, &c., of Mr. Sheriff Keats, are displayed upon the buttons, and are those derived from his ancestor, Admiral Keats. SOMERSET HOUSE.-THE NEW TVING. One of the most important structures now rapidly ad vancing towards completion in the metropolis is the new wing of Somerset House, from the designs of Mr. James Pennithorne, architect, which forms an extensive addi tion to the original work by Sir W. Chambers. The new wing contains the leading characteristics of the ori ginal building, but treated in a more bold and vigorous manner, with the important distinctive feature of an attic storey projected on the same plane as the principal faces of the main walls, instead of being arranged dor mer fashion, as in the old edifice, whereby rooms eleven feet high in the clear are obtained, instead of the low, stifling, rooms in the roof of the old building. The sculptor's aid has also been called in, and, no doubt, Mr. Theed will add to his already acquired fame by the em bellishmente with which he is decorating the new build. ing. The entire length of the new wing from north to south is 225 feet, the centre mass (crowned with a late pediment) being 168 feet wide and 104 feet high. The southern one is 68 feet in width, and the northern one 89 feet. To this must be added a portion of the old building next the river, originally only brick, which nas now been refaced with stone. This measures 22 feet, which, added to the new front, will give a total of 247 feet. The depth of the south wing from the portico to the beck wall line in Somerset place is 112 feet, and the corresponding deptivrat the north is 122 feet. The general depths of the intervening portions is 62 feet, except at the centre, which has an extra projection of 11 feet, and a width of 46 feet. The ground plan forms one half of a hollow square, sunk 31 feet below the level in Wellington-street, forming an open quadrangle. A certain portion of this is to be covered with radiating brick arehe=, covered over with girders, supported by a series of iron columns. ;These arches will he covered with asphalte, over which gravel will be laid, forming a permanent way, having a drive at each end, with. approaches 16 feet w ide, and a foot path 7 feet in width. Underneath this covered level a large apartment, 135 feet long, by 31 feet wide, will be used for the stamping department. The tout ensemble of the building will be highly effective. The whole of the corridors, passages, and staircases are constructed on the fireproof system. Mr. J. Kelk, of Pimdco, has the contract (or the building, and' Mr. William Morris is clerk of the works. It is hued that, during these improvements, tne ug.y rcu tuttuerd - or clay and zinc from the chimney shafts will be removed, and replaced with a better and more useful design in terra-cotta, so as in some instances to harmonise in colour with the Portland stone of which the shafts are composed. It will be remembered that Lord St. Leonardo complained in Parliament, during the last session, of those un sightly chimney terminations, which should certainly be removed forthwith, and not allowed any longer to disfigure the whole of the old buildinv.. A REGULAR FIX.— During a thunderstorm in the town of Berne, says the Albany Knickerbocker, the e'el trio flaid struck an apple tree, against which a young man named Lawrence was leaning. It split the tree from top to bottom, making a gap sufficiently large t let Mr. Lawrence slip in about a foot, immediately aft r which it sprung to, and held him as tight as if Le had b-en in a steel-trap. Before he could be extricated a resort to axes and crowbars became necessary. This is probably one of the tightest places that Mr. Lawrence ever got into. CHOLERA IN MADEIRA.—The committee for affording relief to the sufferers from the cholera at Madeira have, by permission of the Lords of the Admiralty, been en abled to forward to the island in her Majesty's ship Hecate stores of medicine and medical comforts suffi cient to meet more immediate wants, but by the latest accounts received the epidemy was still pursuing a most fatal course in the country villages, and, although the disease bad nearly ceased at Funchal, great misery and destitution prevailed among the lower classes throughout the island. The committee are therefore most desirous to forward by the packet which will sail for Madeira on the 23d inst. as large supplies of food and clothing as tile funds collected will allow. For that object they earnestly invite further contributions.

THE RACE AND THE RESULT. The start was admirably effected, the horses getting away at the first attempt. Ellington was first off, but was immediately pulled back, and Merlin took up the run ning, with Squire Watt second, Warlock third, Roger- thorpe fourth, Bonnie Scotland fifth, Ellington next, and Artitlery last. As they breasted the bill in making to wards the far side of the course Rogerthorpe drew into the second place, and on reaching the top of it way in possession of a clear lead, Squire Watt going on second, Merlin third, Warlock fourth, Bonnie Scotland fifth, Victoria sixth, Ellington seventh, Clarissa colt eighth, and Artillery last, a wide interval separating each. In this order, "Indian file," they ran to the Red-'louse, where Squire Watt was beaten, and he and the Clarissa colt dropped into the rear. Artillery now began to draw forward ; Rogerthorpe maintaining the lead, with Mer lin, Warlock:, and Bonnie Scotland next in pursuit. At the bend Rogerthorpe gave way, and Merlin assumed the lead, when he held to nearly the half distance, when he dropped back and Warlock came out, with Bonnie Scotland and Artillery second and third, in close pursuit. Warlock, however, went in, and at last won by two lengths • Artillery caught Bonnie S co tl an d j ust on t h e spot, and made a dead heat with him for second place. At about three lengths behind them was Rogerthorpe fourth, Merlin and Victoria were fifth and sixth, close up with Rogerthorpe ; Ellington, Clarissa colt, and Squire Watt were pulled up, and passed the post together in the order named.

Although speculation on the St. Leger was stopped by the overweening confidence placed in Ellington, and al though the race in consequence excited little interest, yet it is doubtful whether the streets of Doncaster ever be fore presented a more crowded and busyappeaarnce, and certainly the muster on the course was quite as large as that on any former anniversary of this great northern event. The day was dull and cloudy, but the unpropiti one skiey influences were disregarded by the masses of people—" some on pleasure, some on business bent," who went trooping towards the course. Special trains in connection with the neighbouring towns and the manu facturing districts arrived in rapid succcession. The spe cial from King's-cross, by which people were conveyed from London and back for 10s., proved an additional inducement to many persons to see the Leger run for, and was largely patronised. The Municipal Stakes and the Corporation Plate pre ceded the St. Leger. The first-mentioned event occa sioned some spirited betting and an interesting race. The Corporation Plate was deemed a certainty for Jack Sheppard, who, however, got badly off, and could get no nearer than f ourt h at the finish. An hour's inter val t )ok place between that race and the St. Leger, an interval which was turned to the best account by the bookmakers. Never,. perhaps, wits the latest betting on the St. Leger so limited in extent and insignificant in its operation. The partisans of Ellington evinced un wavering confidence to the let, and supported the horse with increasing spirit unt.i. shout of " They're off" stilled the tumult in the ring. John Scott, who is popularly styled the " Wizard of the North," has prepared a surprise for the ring. ledeed he merely gave a repetition of his Newmarket achieve ment. In the spring, when Fly-by-Night was with drawn from the Two Thousand he was ready with Faz zoletto, and no "i that Fazzoletto, after enjoying conside rable popularity, was "knocked out" for the St. Leger he found a winner in Warlock. The success of his stable created a great sensation, and was hailed by Yorkshire men with loud and prolonged cheers. From our de scription of the race it will be seen that Ellington took no prominent part in the encounter, and was not only beaten, but disgraced. It is argued by many persons that if Artillery had not been so far out of the ground he would have won. The horse, however, evidently wanted the "heart" to finish. The winner and his stable com panion Victoria were well .upported in the market by persons who ever hold the Whitewall stable dangerous. THE IMPERIAL COUNT IH THE PYRENEES. BAYONNE, SEPT. 14. Prince Ada'herb and the Infanta his wife left for Paris last evening. Their departure was accom panied by the same honours from the garrison and the citadel as their arrival. The departure of the Emperor and Empress for Paris, and thence to Compiegne, is spoken of for the 25th or 29th, but this will in a great measure depend on the state of the weather. The fine season, which has continued so long, begins to show signs of a change, and some heavy showers of rain, with a sudden freshness - in the temperature, indicate the approach of a season less propitious for the sojourners at Biarritz. It has been frequently tried to introduce, and even taermanently establish on the French soil the great national sport of Spain, but as yet the at tempt has not been successful ; and wherever the tauromaquia is practised by Frenchmen. exclusively it has proved as unsuccessful an imitation as Pari sian barricade-building would be in Spain. French men surpass Spaniards and all other people in that species of street architecture, as the citizens of Madrid, Cadiz, and Seville beat everyone in the science of the bull-ring. When Spaniards are not the directors and principal actors in such displays the corrida is merely the unscientific and stupid butchery of a noble animal worthy of a better fate. For some weeks past it was rumoured that a dis play of the kind would take place at St. Esprit, which, though officially belonging to the depart ment of the Landes, is really a suburban division of the town of Bayonne. For some reason or other the sport had been put off, but for last Sunday a bull-fight strictly in accordance with the Spanish rule and fashion was announced, and the quiet town was accordingly inundated by crowds of strangers. The Basque country sent its popu lation, male and female ; from Cambo, Haspar ren, Itsatsou, Irun, Fontarabia, Andouins, To losa, and from Bordeaux, the Paris of the south, came not less than 1,500 of its citizens to witness the feats of the Spanish matador. From an early hour in the morning the Adour and the Nive were covered with boats of every size and form, laden with passengers thronging to the point of rend ezvous . Th ey were all, wever, doomed to be disappointed. The sky was covered with clouds in the early part of the day, and tor rents of rain began to fall just at the hour for which the spectacle had been fixed. There was no help for it, and the bull-fight was again put off, to the great regret of all, but particularly of the crowds that had come from Bordeaux that morning by the train de plaisir. This day, •however, it took place in spite of many misgivings as to the state of the weather. Rain fell at intervals from 11. o'clock till 2, but at that hour a brisk wind sprung up, which dispersed the clouds, and the sun once more appeared in a clear sky. A half-past two the gates of the bull-ring were thrown open, and the anxi ous crowds who had for hours braved the incle mency of the weather, and who did not despair of its clearing up, rushed in, and in a few minutes every bench and box was full. Soon after the Em peror and Empress, accompanied by a numerous suite, made their appearance. Their reception by the multitude was all that could be desired. Out of compliment to the Empress the national air of Spain was struck up by the band of the 35th Regi ment as their Majesties entered, and soon after the lively jota of arragon indicated that the bull-fighters were ready. The ceremonial of the bull-ring of Madrid when royalty honours the spectacle with iis presence was observed on the present occasion. The bull-fighters, arrayed in their richest costume, advanced to the front of the Imperial boxsisent on one knee, and the Alguazil asked for the gilt key, which is supposed to open the den where 'the am Dials are kept. It was thrown down to him by the Empress. The Alguazil proceeded to the stall, and the bull-fighters dispersed about the ring to take their places in expectation of the bull. The espada,"or leader of the troop, was the well-known Manvel Egana. He is a man about 30 years of age; his dark eyes, incessantly moving about, give a sin gular expression to his swarthy but not ill-favoured countenance, and his thick eyebrows impart a ferocity which, however, is mitigated by the tranquil and con fident smile on his lips. He is strongly built, broad shouldered, and of moderate stature. He wore a rich green milk costume embroiders(' in silver. A long yellow cloak hung on his left arm ; his right hand was placed on his hip, and he waled.' about foe some as mucia at me ease as if he was in a wine shop in the L tvapies. His companions, who were young and smart toreros, were also gaily dressed. fhree French ecarteurs from the Landes followed modestly in the roar of the brilliant cuadrilla. The Spanish portion of the assemblage, not accustomed to such an intrusion, did not appear to make out why the ecarteurs were placed in the bull-ring, and in fact they did look rather out of place and awkward by the side of their companions. In some towns of the south of France similar sports are held and conducted after a French fashion, and the reason why they were mingled on this occasion was owing to the desire of some persons to see the bull-fighters of both na tions exercise their art in company. To-day, how ever, the public disapproved such an innovation. The Spanish toreros were the only champions to whom attention was given ; and the Landais took but a very small part in the proceedings. The first bull that appeared on the arena was what connoisseurs call of the abanta class—that is, cunning, treacherous, and " hypocritical." The crafty animal did not bound into the ring with precipitation and fury. He crept out, as it were, stealthily, and, when least expected, made a rush at Aguirre, the torero of the blue cloak, who by a slight but skilful movement evaded the dangerous horns, but yet remained still, and allowed the dis appointed animal to rush blindly on until he per ceived that his enemy had disappeared. A cloud of chulos then began to distract his attention. They roused him to fury by shaking their cloaks in his face, and the espada Egana, profiting by the favourable opportunity, for whichl he had remained quietly on the watch, advanced under his very horns, and executed an admirable suerte a la Na varra. Banderillas, or darts, were planted in the animal's neck with much dexterity by Aguirre and Condoya ; and in less than half an hour Egana killed his beast at one stroke, without causing him to shed a drop of blood. The second bull, though fiercer in aspect and more impetuous in his movement, was in realtDr less dangerous than the first. His mode of attack was more open, more "frank," sooner understood and better calculated by the fighters. On his first rush from the den he went bounding round the ring in great fury and leaped the • barriers, but he soon got tired, and showed no great desire to fight. Egana planted in his neck a couple of darts with gunpowder at the points, and the heated weapons soon produced their effecb ; his apathy disappeared, and he was quickly roused to fury. He pawed the earth, and made desperate but useless efforts to fling off his torturing appendages. Barret lethalis arundo. In a few minutes twa French bull-fighters and two Spaniards were sprawling on the ground. A fresh pair of fire banderillas were planted by Baquez, and a third by Condoya. When the mo ment for despatching him came he was killed by Egana at the second blow ; and the public were so pleased that the carcase was given to him as a per quisite. The story of the third bull did not much differ from the preceding ones. But Egana was not so fortunate in his contest with the fourth. When taking his position to kill the animal he was thrown to the ground and trampled on. His dress was torn to pieces in a few moments by the bull's horns, and, though his companions ran at once to his assistance, they could not prevent him from being severely hurt. Egana asked, and of course ob tained, permission to retire from the ring. The fifth bull was killed, though unscientifically, by Condoya, the second espada, who executed what I believe billiard players would call a fluke. Iu fact, the animal was lying dead at his feet before his slayer was aware of it ; a stroke, unintention ally dealt between the horns, and which entered the spinal marrow, killed the bull in an instant. Condoya was applauded vehemently, but it would appear by those who are not thoroughly acquainted with the taurornaquia ; he contemplated the car case with no small astonishment at his own luck, but naturally felt proud of his easy victory. To the admirers of such a display the absence of was went, f the eou s r p s sport r a t p g i r c e a a d t o d r r e a s w , obrackm;oubnutte2dsolafanrceamse it was pronounced to be very fair. The animals, which bad been brought from Navarre, had, it was said, lost much of their vigour by the delay and the influence of the rain of last week, and were therefore seen to a disadvantage. As is usual in such cases the skill of the princi pal artistes in this sort of drama was freely discussed by the learned among the spectators. It was ad mitted that Egana was a very good bull-fighter. He has, however, little experience ; he is ignorant of the finer tricks of his profession ; and of which Cuchares, the celebrated espada, is so consummate a master. It seems he plays the same suertes with • every kind OT bull, and this-it is feared will some [PRICE 4D. STAMPED SD• f day be fatal to him. Egana, we are told, would figure well as second espada with Cuchares, or the Salamanquino, for his chief, but it is doubted whe ther he is competent to take the leadership of a cuadrilla. He has been spoilt by playing first part in small towns of the northern provinces of Spain, and connoisseurs are of opinion that he shOuld "study" in the different bull-rings in Andalusia, and carefully-observe how Cuchares, Salamanquiuo, El Tato, El Rigatero, Manuel Perez, Mendivil, Lucas (el Africano), and others, do their work. With the exception of Minato and Pulga, wh , have not yet been equalled, no one is superior to him as a banderillero. The Emperor and Empress remained to the last. They were applauded on returning-, and the Spanish national air was again played when they took their departure. ENGLISH PRESS AND AMERICANS. If our American brethren judge of English pp - nion by our newspapers, and suppose the Times to be our mouthpiece, they must occasionally stand amazed at our ignorance and inconsistency. b ee day the Times takes the Address of the venerable Josiah Quincy as its text, and exhibits the condi tion of the American Union under the crisis of its sectional difficulties ; and presently it finds fhult with Mr. Quincy for leaving out half the question, and failing to show how the slaveholders ari to abolish slavery. One would think the writer had not read the pamphlet he professes to review;lnot even the title-page. The subject of Mr. Quincy's Address is "The Nature and Power of the Slave States, and the Duties of the Free States." This is what the aged patriot undertook to show, and what he has shown, according to the views which he holds. Mr. Quincy is not an Abolitionist. He ex pressly disclaims the title in the pamphlet before us. lie treats, not of the condition of the negro, but of the condition and prospects of his country. He is a citizen of a sove reign State, which abolished slavery long ago, and which is one of a federation of above thirty sovereign States, which find themselves no* no longer enjoying the equal rights and privileges which are the declared foundation of their Union. The thirty-one states contain a populationl of twenty-six millions. This population is at present suffering under intolerable oppression from a mere fraction of its number. The slaveholders are Only between a half and a quarter of a million ; ;and this number--of whom not more than one thou sand are believed to be active and powerful—con trouls the political and social action and fate bf all the rest of the twenty-six millions. The Free States, which long ago abolished slavery, ' find themselves now made the slave catchers and the political serfs of the Slave States, which are moved by the thousand or few thousands of slaveowners who have usurped the political power of the Fede ration. It is becoming understood now that the slave power, which is thus oppressive and upurp ing, is not that of the Sl ave St a t es a t l arge . Besides that the slaveowners themselves ai creasingly wretched and discontented unde in ; the fin pub- hree- 1 system which had impoverished their fortune paired their social reputation, and made their r licanism a laughing-stock, it is now becoming k that the whole body of slaveholders are only t tenths of the white population of the Sou States. Seven-tenths of that Southern white 1 lation have the strongest possible interest i establishment of free labour. Such is the distri bution of power and of numbers in the United States. Mr. Quincy's undertaking was to nhow how it came to pass that the power resides in the hands of so insignificant a minority, and what ought to be done to chock the usurpation which should never have been permitted. He shows thtit the unconstitutional admission of Louisiana intio the Union, by Southern intrigues, was the fatal " usurpation " against which Washington I had warned his country. Ha traces the progress Of the encroachment of the South upon the rights df the North ; he refers his readers to the territorial ag gressions which have been perpetrated because slavery wears out old soil, and perpetually deniands a new extension ; and he shows how the final usur pation of the soil of Nebraska and Kansas—the free dom of which was formerly constitutionally secured, must occasion the final conflict between the rights of twenty-six millions of republican citizens and the usurpation of 330,000 slaveholders.' An eminent citizen, between 80 and 90 years old, who bas_s " n tjuaeen the fill_ rant' 111 io sold ir,n own its nrst generation a t r i sL igtesmen, stands forth in the crisis of events, not to deliver an abolition lecture, but to exhibit the peril of the republic, and to give his counsel about saving it ; and the Times com plains that he does not show the slaveholders how to de 11 with slavery ! What has he to do with the methods they must use t The citizens of his State have not been slaveholders for two generations ; and they now at length refuse to be made the tools and the victims of those who aro. The first thing that ensues on such a protest always is that the slaveholders demand that the protesters shall show how the evil is to be dealt with. Dr. Charming was assailed in the same way that Mr. Quincy is now, and he nearly fell into the snare. Happily some experienced persons warned him th t the Southern leaders would ride off on objecti ns to i: every method he could be induced to p opose —even supposing him qualified to proposes any. The same dodge was tried in Congress' with John Quincy Adams when he ' was remonstrat ing against the . breach of constitutional safe guards. The Times now attempts to encounter Mr. Quincy in the same way. What Dr. Churning had to do was to assert the principles of human free dom. What ex-President Adams had to do was to vindicate the right of petition. What Mr. Quincy undertook to do was to exhibit the actual position of affairs, and to point out " the duties of the Free States"—not the procedure of the Slave States. No one has a right to make the demand ; and if it were otherwise, the most ineffectual appeal possible would bo that adopted by the Times—urging that the slaveholders did not create their " peculiar in stitution," and intimating that it cannot be mended. There is an answer to such an appeal, though Mr. Quincy is no way bound to offer it. If the slaveholders did not create slavery, they pre ferred it when the crisis of 1820 compelled them to a choice. Slavery was the choice of the South first when the Missouri Compromise was formed ; and again when it was repealed. It is not true— and the Times must know it, unless it is ignorant of the whole history of the case—that slavery is the doom and not the choice of the slaveholders. The North abolished it ; the South chose to pre serve it; and now both must act in accordance iwith their decision. The Northern citizens must guard the area of the free labour which they have preferred to slave industry. The area is now attacked in the form of an usurpation of the soil of Kansas. The Free States must induct free labour into it, and support and protect it there, as the al ternative to the subjection of twenty-six millions of republican citizens to the self-will and self-in terest of half a million. As for the Southern men --i-they may choose for themselves whether to secede from the Union in which they must henceforth bear only their due share of power and privilege, or to yield to the conditions under which alone they can remain in the Union. They must decide for themselves whether to uphold or abolish slavery within their own boundaries. The North will no longer help them to uphold it, nor permit the Con gressional District of Columbia to be peopled by slaves. But within their own frontiers the sove reign States of the South can do as they please about their institutions of every kind. The world sees how poor those States are in wealth—how deteriorated in fertility, how scantily peopled, and how barbaric in morals and manners; and the world therefore thinks it would be wise in the citizens to abolish the cause of their poverty and barbarism. But about this the citizens can please themselves. When the seven-tenths of the whites to whom we have re ferred—the whites who do not hold slaves—obtain a true knowledge of th e i r p os iti on, t h ey will use their majority for the abolition of slavery. Mean while, the South must sub m it t o equa li ty of f e d era l rights with the North, or quit the Union. This is all Mr. Quincy ha s t o sa y, an d very c l early h e h as said it. ;hero ►opu s the Whenever the Southern States find it necessary to abolish slavery, they will find it can be done. What is necessay is always possible. The Times writes as if slavery had never been abolished be fore ; whereas the thing has been done repeatedly, and always with final success. Hayti is not a case in point ; for it was an internecine war between the whites and free mulattoes which incidentally occasioned the liberation of the black, and not any anti-slavery movement. Our sugar production has recovered as high a point of success as it reached in the palmiest days of protection ; and American cotton will be produced by free labour, or ex changed for some. other product. All considera tions combine to indicate that the negroes will work better as paid labourers than as slaves, if only the masters will treat them as paid labourers are treated everywhere. If not so, the world cannot go backward for the sake of a quarter of a million of slave-owners. Cotton is rising in many places, in successful rivalship to that of the Southern Naval and Military Intelligence. Yesterday morning a large detachment of troops, be longing to the 4th Royals, 7th Fusiliers, 13th (Prince Albert's) Light infantry, 18th Royal Irish, 19th and 23d Welsh Fusiliers, 30th, 38th, 41st and 42d Highlanders, 55th and 68th Light Infantry, 72d and 79th Highlan ders, 88th Connaught Rangers, 90th Light Infantry, and 95th Regiment, left St. Mary's Barracks, Chathatn, after having been inspected by Lieut.-Col. Anderson, with Captains Rand and Rawlings, for the purpose of joining their respective depots, the whole of the men having recovered from their wounds or sickness. Four teen non-commissioned officers and meu of various regi• ments also len the invalid depot at Chatham yesterday, under the command of Ensign S. R. Handy, 40th Regt., for the purpose of joining their regiments or depots at the various stations in Ireland. The Hon. Major Yelverton's company of the Royal Artillery were on Tuesday inspected by Major-General Sir W. F. Williams, commandant at Woolwich, and are under orders to remove to garrison quarters at Leith and Fort George. Major Yeiverten, in command, will be accompanied by Capt. Hardy, Lieut. Nicolls, and Lieut. Hall, the officers attached to the company. Instructions have been forwarded to the commandant of Woolwich garrison, by direction of the Commander in -Chief, to take immediate measures for a renewal of the recruiting service for the corps of Royal Artillery. The standard is fixed for ail ages at Eft. 9in., and recruiting parties are to be stationed forthwith in three districts of England and in one of Scotland. The sailing-ship Tudor was off the port of Liverpool yesterday afternoon, and would enter the Mersey in the evening, with a further detachment of the Anglo•ltalian Legion from Malta. After disembarking they would pro ceed to York. Some further experiments with a new description of pontoon, the invention of Mr. Forbes, C.E., were made yesterday at Chatham by the troops belonging to the noyai ....ewerse in sue &est-nee - of a number of officers of the Sappers and Miners and the East India Company's service, with a board of officers of the Royal Engineers appointed to report on the merit of his inven tion. The experiments on this occasion took place at St. Mary's-Creek, and were conducted by Mr. Forbes, the troops being under the direction of Major F. C. Has ;ard, R.E., the president of the board. The newly invented pontoons, it is alleged, have a great superiority over those at present in use by the corps of Royal Sappers and Miners, the invention of Major Gen. T. Blanshard, C.E.; Mr. Forbes's pontoons being of a triangular shape and somewhat less bulky, advantages which the inventor con- Eiders will have the effect of rendering them more buoy ant, more easily managed, and capable of sustaining a greater weight than those nos used. During the experi ments yesterday it was a matter of observation that Mr. Forbes's pontoons were not so steady in the water as General Blanshard's ; and, being triangular, it was considered that they were nose liable to get out of order and sustain injuries by the angular sides coming in contact with any substance either in or out of the water—defects which are less likely to occur to those invented by Gen. Blanshard, which being of a cylindrical shape, present a more even surface. Although the newly invented pontoons will probably bear as great a weight as the present kind, yet, from the experiments yesterday, it was found that Mr. Forbes's pontoons are not so easily managed as Gen. Blanshard's, it being very difficult, if not almost impossible, to perform the opera tion termed " booming out" with them, a manoeuvre easily and quickly managed with the present kind ; so that, on the whole, Gen. Blanshard's pontoons are more readily handled in the water than those of the new in vention. The experiments lasted some time, and were witnessed with much interest. The committee of engi neer officers appointed to investigate the superiority of the invention will make their report to the authorities forth with. The officers and crew of her Majesty's ship Leander, 50, Capt. T. L. Massie, now at Chatham, waiting to be paid off, have just performed a praiseworthy act of bene volence. During the time the Leander was with the Black Sea fleet 17 of her crew were killed in the attack on Sebastopol. On Tuesday, when the vessel arrived at Chatham, the crew raised among themselves the hand some sum of 1361., which they forwarded the same even ing by post to the nearest relative or friend of each of the deceased men, sending the sum of 8/. to each. -- The Goliath, 80, now lying at Chatham, is ordered to be fitted as a screw steam-vessel, and made ready for sea. The transports Amaranth and Heroes of Alma have entered the Victoria Docks, Woolwicl', to discharge medical and surgical stores, &c. The Dm talus has been discharged the transport service. The Ocean transport arrived yesterday morning at Woolwich from the East, and has entered the Victoria Docks to discharge. The engineer department of Woolwich dockyard having been instructed by the Lords of the Admiralty to ascer tain the specific advantages and economy to be obtained in the event of their decision to adopt Mr. Wethered's system of superheating steam on board their vessels, Mr. Partridge, Assistant - Chief-Engineer, was deputed to accompany Mr. Wethered during the late experimental , trip, and to make a careful report on the working of the apparatus. The pipes have been removed, and the Dee was yesterday morning despatched under ordinary steam. Mr. Ward, inspector of machinery afloat, has taken pas sage, in order to compare the rate of speed and the con sumption of fuel, Stc., of the experimental voyage with the present one. The freight ship Voltigenr arrived at Woolwich yesterday morning from the London Docks, where she has shipped a cargo of Ordnance stores for Halifax. The invention of Mr. Bertram (recently a foreman in the factory department here) for welding iron plates instead of riveting, has been tested during several days at the Victoria Ironworks, Greenwich, in the presence of numerous gentlemen, some of whom are connected with large foundries in the north of England. The first trials were not successful, as it was difficult to obtain the proper heat ; but subsequent exp e riments proved the value of the invention, and on applying a test the iron plate broke, but the junction effected by the welding process was perfectly secure. Mr. Ber tram has been offered 5,000/. by the French Govern. ment for half his patent, but has declined these terms. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty ;—Lieut. W. H. O wn i ng , to t h e C urlew ; James H. Kerr, additional master, to the Actwon ; J. E. Scudamore, second master, to th e B ustard ; R . F . F . Thomas, master's assistant, to the Calcutta ; J. A. Collinson, master's assistant, to the Actmon ; George G. Nelson, paymaster to the Shannon ; Richard Drury, clerk, to the Shannon ; J. E. Stanton, assistant clerk to the Shannon. STOCKTON AND DARLINGTON RAILWAY.—A very im portant portion of this railway, called the Tunnel Branch, was opened on Saturday by the chairman and directors. Its object is to form a locomotive line from the north end of the Shildon-tunnel to West Auckland, where it unites with the Haggerleazes line, instead of the great traffic (10,000 tons per week) being, as hitherto, worked by horses and stationary engine to the foot of the Brusselton incline. The directors had offered a 'pre mium for early completion, and this was gained by the contractors, Messrs. To wsdale and Jackson. Until the spring only goods and minerals will be carried, but there will be above 16 trains each way per diem. 1 ' N L
