On alighting at the station the Queen was re ceived by Sheriff Gordon, the Lord Provost, and Lord Melville, Commander-in Chief of the forces in Scotland. The entrance to the station was by a finely decorated archway leading to a flight of steps, covered with tartan and crimson cloth, the hall being tastefully ornamented with flowers. The train loft at a quarter to 8 o'clock, Mr. Sey mour Clarke having carefully aF.cert.a.ined that all aU ll ied the Wednesday the details were perfect. The only addition to the Royal party was Sir George Grey, who took the forpla ere Forfar., r. Lord Sheriff Pa. mur Gordone, w accompanied c l o t left Royal train to Berwick-ou-Tweed, together with Mr. Hodgson, of Carham (the Chairman), Mr. Sprot, of Riddel (the Vice-Chairman), and Mr. Horne, Mr. Cheyne, Mr. Barn, Mr. Bowman, directors ; Nr. Nairne, secretary ; and Mr. Itowbotham and Mr. Bell, of the North British Railway. In passing through the Lothians the appearance of the fields contrasted very strongly with that presented by the country through which the Royal train passed yesterday. Here, over a run of 50 miles scarcely a sheaf of corn was to be seen out standing, while the crowded corn-yards afforded pleasing evidence that the farmers had gathered in a most- abundant- harvest. In Wirtt Lothian and to the north of Edinburgh little more than half the crop has been isecured, and it was very distressing to see whole fields covered with stooks, the blackened appearance of which showed but too clearly the damage they had sustained. The train arrived at Berwick at 19.15, and stopped for five minutes for change of engines. The mayor and corporation of Berwick were pre sent, and a guard of honour of the 91st, under the command of Colonel Gordon. A goodly num ber of inhabitants were also present, who loudly cheered her Majesty as she was crossing the border. Alderman Leernan, of York, the deputy chair man of the North-Eastern Railway, Alderman, Maclean, of Leeds • Alderman Hodgson, of New castle; Ald erman kartley, of Sunderland ; Capt. O'Brien, Mr. T. E. Harrison, Mr. J. Bourne, and Mr. A. Christison, directors and officials, accom panied the train. The fields around Berwick, and for 10 miles on either side of it, are not very clear, but the oats exposed are of good colour. Further southward the aspect of the country again improves, corn yards bulking very large, and suggesting some de ficiency in the system of cutting and gathering in the crops in those districts where they are still exposed, and where soil, climate, and farming are equal to the husbandry of the Lothians. At Bilton, where there was a change of engines, and which is contiguous to Earl Grey's property, the Earl attended, and conversed with her Majesty and the Prince. In this part of Northumberland there is a good deal of oats in the field, but the wheat crop is nearly all secured. The train arrived in Newcastle at 11.3, being a few minutes late, owing to the slippery state of the rails in the mineral districts. The Mayor and other officials were present, and a very large assemblage of people were within the fine station. A fresh engine was here put ou, and the lost timo was gradually made up. At Darlington there was a change of engines. The station was crowded with people. The train hit Darlington at 12.8, and reached York at 1.10. ,The weather had now undprL one a very unfa.you-r -able change, the temperature having fallen, and cold, - drizzling rain, with heavy showers, prevailing. Her Majesty's reception at York was of the usual splendid character. The platform was covered with Brussels carpeting all the way to the Royal Saloon, where the Queen was to have luncheon. The 98th Regiment was drawn up in line, the band playing the national anthem. Her Majesty was received by the Lord Mayor (Meek), General Sir Harry Smith, the High Sheriff and the Depnty-Sheriff, Colonel M`Pherson, Major Aansink, the Dean of Ripon, Mr. Beckett Denison (chairman) ' and Mr. Alderman Meek (director) of the Great Northern Railway. The Lady Mayoress and a grand display of com pany were within the station. ' 47 / A 2;', .;terday evening her Majesty, Prince/AWert, the Princess Royal, the Princess Alice, Lind the rest of the Royal fam,ily, with the exception of the Prince of Wales, arrived at Windsor, on their re turn from Balt oral,. after an absence:of exactly seven weeks. His Royal Highness the Piince.of Wales left Osborne yesterday morning, and tra velled by special train from Gosport to Windsor to join her Majesty and the Prince Consort. Yesterday morning the Queen left the Palace of Holyrood, Edinburgh, at half-past 7 o'c!ock - . Her Majesty drove down the Park to St. Margaret's station of the North British Railway in an open carriage, accompanied by an escort of the sth goon Guards. The Queen's drive was lined by the 34th Regiment, under the command of Colonel Kelly, the Royal Artillery having a battery in the Park, which fired a Royal salute as her Majesty passed along, amid the.cheers of a large concourse of spectators. The weather, which had been showery early in the morning, now cleared up and .became very fine. The train left York at 1.40, accompanied by Mr. Denison and Mr. Meek. The first stoppage was at Doncaster, where a fresh engine was put ou. The station was splendidly decorated and completely filled with spectators. The Mayor and Aldermen were present, and Lady Mary Wood, with whom her Majesty shook hands. The weather had now improved, and every possible point of observation was occupied by the people as the train passed. The Retford• station was reached at 3 o'clock, being cor rect time, which was now kept without the slightest variation. At this station 21 fog signals were passed over by the engine, in imitation, we suppose, of a Royal salute, while the people cheered the Queen very heartily. At Grantham there was a display of flowers and evergreens, with monograms and sentiments in scrollwork and various devices in flowers. The band of the Lincolnshire Militia played during tLe few minutes the engine was getting water. At Peterborough, where the train arrived at 4.26 and had a fresh engine, there was a grand display. The station was decorated with flags and flowers. The Earl of Westmoreland was present, and the Lord Bishop and his clergy were on the platform, i w n i g th ton the e principal o a ffici t o p officials g o the town. o f of three O tt u l i t e u s n tot water and grease the axles, none of which have heated on this journey. a m T i h n e u tin reached te ra leavin,,cra il s.4 it w c , h a in nd a a t r s r . i 3 v B being time in , gatthe me to goods station, Maiden-lane, London, at 6.25, five minutes before the time in the bill, the arrangements throughout, over a distance of 586 miles, having , been of the most satisfactory character. The object of drawing up the train at the goods station, instead of the ordinary terminus at King's cross, was to enable her Majesty to pass at once on to the North London Railway, and so proceed direct to Windsor without the necessity, as here tofore, of an inconvenient break in the journey be tween the stations of King's-cross and Paddington. This is a new arrangement, and was tried on this occasion for the first time. Mr. Mowatt, the secre tary of the Great Northern Company, and others of the officials were in attendance at the goods station at King's-cross on the arrival of the train. A few other persons were also present, and the number would probably have been greatly aug mented but for the means of access to the place being little known to the public, and the circum stance of her Majesty arriving after dark. A de tention of about ten minutes, consequent upon a changeof engine and of the line of railway, occurred, and during part of the interval her Majesty and the Prince Consort appeared'at the window of their saloon and conversed with Sir George Grey and Mr. Beckett Denison. They were accompanied by the Princess Royal and the Princess Alice. Sir George Grey and Mr. Beckett Denison took leave of her Majesty at the terminus at King's cross, and, the necessary arrangements being completed, the Royal travellers, amid an enthusi astic cheer from the people in the station, con tinued their jou rne y t o Wi n d sor, w hi c h t h ey reac hed at a quarter to 8 o'clock. e mpire, himself General Passelac, one of the old generals ofthee.„ has just died at the age of 83.

STOCK JOBBING IN PARIS• Apropos of the arrest j.n this city (says the Kew reek Zit Paid) of the Parisian gentlemen who have had to flee from that gay capital on account of unfortunate specula tions on the Bourse, and of appropriating to their own use ' a certain number of shares in the Northern Railroad Com pany of France, an inside view into the management of that great institution—la Bourse,- or the Stock Exchange— cannot fail to be highly interesting. We hasie facilities for 1 supplying that inside view, and we, therefore, proceed to show the mod ns operandi of the French financiers, of the bears and bulls of the Place de la Bourse, and the working of that system of speculation which hasreceived its highest development within the period since the establishment of the Rmpire in 1852, and has withinthat brief space of time made and shattered princely fortunes. At the time of the establishment of the Empire there were many of the Emperor's adherents whom it was neces sary to reward and enrich at any cost. In 1852, when Louis Napoleon was entering on the first months of the new pre sidential term of ten years, which he had decreed to him self, he found himself in the disagreeable position of having all his resources exhausted. His friends and retainers were mostly in the same plight. They had tried and made the 'most of all the expedients they could think of—all except one, the Aladdin's lamp of the Empire—the magic Stock Exchange. They were for some time puzzled to know how they should extricate themselves from their embarrass ments. The old creditors were noisily demanding the pay- Ment of their claims. The new furnishers not having much confidonee in the stability of things, were presenting their little bills. Money was absolutely needed. Itmust be got by hook or by crook. In this pressing necessity a resort to the Bourse was decided on as the last chance to replenish their ' empty treasury. The decision being once taken, they set about putting everything in train that was likely to procure success. This great gambling shop of the French Government was skil fully arranged, in the. most approved fashion, to gull the bourgeoisie and to enrich the blackleg operators, who were allowed a share in the management. Some time before the plan was put in execution, several of the half-famished journals of the capital, who were let into the secret, kept up a continual blare of trumpets about the new road of prosperity opened up to every citizen of the grand nation —this discovery of the philosopher's stone just then made. They directed the attention of the million to the rise of stocks, and to the fortunes that were being made on the Bourse. .They published reviews of all the stocks on the market, and by imaginary calculations they proved that they were all ranging below their value. Two of the editors of these journals, who were at that time in no "sitter condition than our . own oyster-house critics— owing long bills to their tailors and laundresses—suddenly emerged from their obscurity under the influence og the new light. These gentlemen, Messrs. Mires and Milhaud, are now rich enough to found cities or to build endless lines of railroad. Their wives and daughters frequent the most fashionable salons, re-unions, and promenades, and outshine all competitors in the glitter of their jewels and the splendour and costliness of their attire. The effect of the system put in play by these newspapers was that by and by the whole world of Paris flocked to the Bourse. Every one who had 501. laid by in some odd nook or other took it from his hiding place, and rushed in hot haste to invest it in one of those wonderful enterprises of the day that were declaring such large dividends. Fur thelnducements to investment were held out in the argu anti that money was plenty, that it was becoming cheap, and the banks reduced the rate of interest from 5 to 4 per cent. Even the Bank of France was induced to lend iks aid to this scheme of speculation, by lending them all the money they wanted at the rate of 4 per cont., secured on stock ; and by receiving deposits of stock, advancing cash on them at the rate of 800 f. for each I,ooof. of stock. People having these facilities' for borrowing money and for making fortunes, anxiously availed themselves of them. They went to the bank, borrowed, say 1,000 f., for which they had only to pay some 40f. a year interest, rushed to the Bourse, and invested it in some stock which was to in crease in value from 2,000 f. to 3,000 f. in a fortnight. This was the mirage presented to the eyes of the French people. This was the bright side of that scene which to thousands brought such stunning consequences. After all these mea sures had beeri prepared to direct the ruin of the country —if they did not succeed—after all the stakes were laid down, nothing remained to commence operations but to bring all the accomplices together. For this purpose all the half-ruined bankers and brokers of Paris were as sembled, with people familiar with bankruptcy, M. horny (Louis Napoleon's cousin, and now Minister to Russie), and M. Fould (his first Minister of Finance) at their head. Their roles were to buy up stock so as to make it scarce in the market ; and for this purpose they called in the services of some stockbrokers (known there as lame ducks). These gentlemen (Messrs. Morny and Fould) were subsequently decorated wit 4 the Cross of the Legion of Honour, probably for the good services then, rendered on the Bourse. Everything being thus prepared, the meditated journey of the Emperor to the South of France was determined on. Thisjourney was represented as the end of the misfortunes of France, and the beginning of its kappiness. The variable French people were seduced by these fine hopes. Than it was that there commenced at the Bourse one of time rises that have never before been equalled. The railroad shares increased some days at the rate of 20 per cent., but were still subject to enormous fluctuations. In taking advantage of these fluctuations —taking. measures to cause them knowing when exactly to sell and when to buy, consisted all the profits of the business. And it is easy to see how enormous these profits, and consequently losses to others, must have been. The exoitement wrought upon the public mind was in tense. Nothing else was thought of but the Bourse. The spirit of speculation permeated the whole community. As an instance of the temptation to this species of gambling, there was foi; some time an anecdote current at the Bourse, of a wealthy man who, partly in jest s made a little opera tion, as he told his friends, that he might buy a sporting deg. and was so infatuated at the game, that in a few months he lost his own and his wife's fortunes. No wonder that the infatuation should be intense and general. One had only to invest in stock to-day, and to morrow he became rich. The speculator who had made a purchase of stock to-day went home and indulged in golden dreams : but perhaps the first thing that would meet his eye on the morrow would be a report skilfully circulated that the Emperor, then on his southern tour, was badly received in a certain city; that in another city ho was fired at; that in another poison had been placed in his food. The unfor tunate cheated speculator would immediately, on reading thes e re p orts —all of which were got up to order—rush to the Bourse and sell all his stock. Then the managers would buy in, immediately it wouldbe found out that nothing but enthusiasm attended the steps of the Emperor. Confidence was restored. Up went the stocks again. Out sold the managers at much increased rates ; and during the two months of the Em peror's absence this pleasant and profitable joking was car ried on. The Emperor's agent on the Bourse, all this time, was one of those overseers of the ante-chamber who take the name of secretaries, but who really know more about the secrets of the boudoir than they do of the State. His name wa s M. - Chevalier. This excitement and agitation was continued for five weeks after the Emperor's return to Paris. Then the trick of the wizard was played out. The imperial coterie had disposed of all their stock to the multitudes of purchasers, who were becoming more and more excited and intoxi eated, and they retired from the scone. This was thesignal for a fall as fabulous as the rise had been, although the Moniteur was daily announcing the favourable reception given by all the Mates of Europe to the news of the re storation of the empire. This fall did not stop till two or throe months later—after Louis Napoleon's marriage—at which time the enriched gang began to think they might safely buy stock at its then depreciation. The managers of this nice little scheme had, notwith standing, some. cheating among themselves. For a long time it was said that a general high in favour had lost and not paid as many millions as have been embezzled by the cashiers of the Northern Railroad Company, and in spite of a weak article published on that subject in the Moniteur (the Government organ), it was found necessary to sum mon that same general (St. Arnaud) to carry his sword to the Crimea, that some credit might be preserved in France. It was at that time, too, that two or three generals backed up ono another in the saloons of the Tuileries for having exchanged accusations of the robbery of 100,030 f. com mitted in the cabinet of the , Einperor himself. In fine, after the groat fall—far which there was no more reason than there had been for the great rise—a new cam paign was entered on, but this time under the auspices not of such a man as Fould, who had become insane, but of a powerful society, which, by the skilful use of its own immense capital, could elevate or depreciate stocks at its pleasure. This society is known as the Credit Mobilier. Its - capital is sixty millions of francs. It was composed of managers who had become rich in the first campaign, and who added to this immense capital their own fortunes, or fortunes extracted from the treasuries of companies of which they were the grantees. This brought up the dis posable capital of the Credit Mobilier to 120 :millions of francs. This society, formed with the object, as its title denotes, of giving aid to traders who have met reverses, became a grand power in the elevation or depreciation of stocks at its own pleasure, and without apparent reason ; first, by means of its powerful capital, and secondly, by th e nfluence of its managers—an influence acquired by the very weight of success. Then the Bourse of Paris be came nothing more than an immense stock market, subject Y the greatest fluctuations under this influence. The great a nts of the war in the Crimea were oven powerless in eecting that influence. Let any one'imagine to himself an unfortunate speculator, depending on his own counsels alone—turning now to the right, now to the left—doing everything at hazard, and be will soon see what losses he must have been sure to sustain. It is, then, not at all surprising that these two cashiers of the Northern Railroad, who are now in custody in this city, should have lost three millions of francs in four years of operations. They were young men, without the necessary experience, ,and they fell victims of the system we have been describing. Shares have varied 20 per"cent. per week on an average. A person hdlding a hundred shares, and constantly buying and Telling, might, under such fluctuations, lo7e 350,000 f. in the course of the year. A hundred shares is a mere trifle on the Bourse. When it concerns a thousand shares it is easy to see how immense the losses or gains May be. It is impossible to give anytking like a true picture of the extensive ruin inflicted by this Credit Mobilior—a society which found its idea in'the brain of Perriere, the initiator of Rothschild. It has caused ruin and devastation, and not a few suicides.. St. Germain, a popular citizen, committed self-destruction from the effect of dealing in it. It caused 'the failure of the house of Leroy de Chabrol, which caused so much excitement in the commercial world ; and the failure of I'arriguet, a stockbroker. Another person was led by his passions —stimulated by this company and its transactions—to murder his father-in-law who had refused to give him money to pay a differenCe of liquidation. The Credit Mobilier is the origin of the ruin of hundreds of families. Their weiklth is only the reSult.of a robbery skil fully organised on a large scale. To-day it s managers are financial kings. But yesterday they wore citizens is mo dest circumstances. : • . Such is the tendency of things-in Parik-4nah the fashion' of the times., The only wonder is that &faulting cashiers are not more numerous. 21IE WAR IN ALGERIA. The Moniteur of yesterday eon-tains the follow 7 ing report from the Governor-General of A' geria Bivouac do I'Arba des Beni.Donala., Oct. 8, 1856. MonSieur le Marecbal,—After the affair of the sth inst., of which I had the honour to send you details, the Ben-Boughredan, who had persisted' in their hosti lity, presented themselves at my camp, and accepted my conditions. I was informed that .the Beni-Bou-Addou also were about to make their submission. The chastisement which it had been my abject to in flict on the confederation of the . Guechtoules being thus complete, and productive of its fruits, I decided on pur suing my operations against the tribes situated on the left bank of the Oned-Aissy. I had to traverse the mountainous district which sepa rates the valley of Oued-Bou-Assem from that of Sebaou. It being fleet siary to diminish my column, and the con centration of my forces being no longer requisit,i, I cause d Gen, Yusuf s division to fall back upon Bordj-Boghni, giving to that officer the mission of taking up a position near the Maatkm, with the view of holding that tribe firmly to their duty. I then ascended with the division of Renault into the country of the Beni-Douala. This tribe, neighbours of the Beni-Raten, had been the insti gators of the insurrectional movement which it was the object of my expedition to repress. I determined to chastise them severely. I quitted the camp of Bou-Assem on the 6th instant, and after a march which the steepness of the declivities and the length of the defiles rendered somewhat harass ing, we arrived, A ithont firing a shot, at Arba, in the Beni-Douala district, where I established myself. Is the numerous villages through which we passed on our route the population attended us with manifestations of respect for the commanders and good will for the soldier. On the evening of the 6th I was rejoined by four bat talions, which Col. Pelle, of the Oth Regiment, acting on my direction, had marched from Tizi-Ouzon. The rear guard of this column had exchanged some shots with the enemy. At sunset, and for several hours after, our advanced posts on two aides of the camp had to sustain incessant attacks of the enemy, who were, however, everywhere repulsed, with a loss on our side of three killed and four wounded. From the plateau of Arba, where my camp is placed, two long crests descend towards the Oned-Aissy, and on their mamillated brows are built the villages of the Beth- Douala. The Kabyles had covered with an abattis of trees the village which lay the nearest to our camp, on the left of the two crests before referred to. Oa the morning of the 7th a column of four battalions, a division of cavalry (Chasseuris and Spahis), and a sec tion of artil;ery, were directed upon this village, under the orders of General Deligny. The enemy, lying close behind their abattis, made a vain resistance. The abattis was quickly destroyed, and the cavalry,. notwithstanding the barricades, penetrated into the streets, where many Kabyles were sabred. The attacking column, following up this movement, overcame all opposition, and pos sessed itself successively of all the villages, inflicting Considr,asle losses also on the Dou•tins. I gave orders to thecllumn of DJligny to return to the camp. As soon as , ,this movement commenced, the enemy made n vlgorou4 l / 4 attock on our tiraillours who vvera nearest to them ; but, anticipating this onset, rase knowing that otirr oppyreents-4-?-arno•siwed Laurnerous con _ tingenta of the Betti:lta.teti, I ItacriOrnt - Ve - veral to General Deligny. The retreat was made in good order. Several atta.lks of the enemy enab:ed us to meet them with the bayonet, and to precipitate them into a ravine, where they were obliged to pass under our fire. Ia the several contests of this day we hays had to re gret the loss of nine killed, among whom is Capt. Crig flier, of the 2d Foreign Regiment, and 3S wounded, re• ceived into the ambulance, including Capt. Bastide and Lieut. 1-!bey-Taiilis, of the 13th battalion of Foot Chas sears. These officers, am glad to state, are but slightly wounded. lam not able to indicate the loss of the enemy. It must have been considerable, as cur soldiers were on various occasions engaged with the bayonet. Gen. Chapuis, chief commandant at Tizi-Ouzon, had learned on the morning of the 7th that my column would attack the Beni-Douala, and that contingents of the Beni- Raten proceeded to the assistance of that tribe. Taking co u n sel only with his own military instinct and energy, he speedily farmed a light column of 1,500 infantry, 2 squadrons of hussars, and a section of artillery. and di rected it upon the Adonis villages of the 13ani-Raten. A three o'clock this column passed the (Med -&issy, and climbing, without much difficulty, the heights'which abut upon the villages, took possession of the latter after half an hour's combat. The Beni-Raten, surprised by this unlooked-for attack, suffered great losses. As soon as the first shots were heard on that side we saw their contingents, which were with the Douala', precipitately return to their village. - At eight o'clock General Chapuie coliinin had returned to Tizi-Ouzon, with only one man killed and thirteen wounded; among the latter being two Officers (slightly.) This movement, boldly, rapidly, and happily executed, reflects honour on the intelligent initiative of General Chapuis, and. I have expressed to Lim my lively satis faction. On the morning of the Bth a strong column, composed of troops of the brigades of Deliguv and Liniers, was directed anew on the villages of the Beni-Donala, to com plete their submission. This operation, in which the enemy, although more numerous, showed himself much less enterprising than on the previous day, cost ui 2 men killed and 22 wounded, including in the latter Captain Clement, of the 90th Regiment, and Sub-Lieutenant Thevenard, of the.l3ch battalion. The result of these operations is that the Beni-Mah moods, neighbours of the Beni-D oua l a , have sued for peace, to which I have acceded. Thus, the insurrection which, tinnier the influence of ElAladj-Amar, had, at the end of September, begun to assume serious proportions, finds itself already reduced to bounds. To-morrow I shall move forward on Tizi- Ouzon.—Receive, &c., .RANDON. THE lk AVY, ARMY, AND ORDNANCE EXPENDITURE. The detailed accounts of the receipts and expenditure for navy, army, commissariat, and ordnance services for the year ending the 31st March, 1855, have been issued . From this document it appears that the naval expendi ture exceeded by 204,000/. the amount of 14,812,0001. granted by parliament. The total, under the 'different items of increase, was 659,0001., which was, however, reduced by savings in some of the departments to the above net amount. The excess arose principally for victuals for seamen and marines (144,000/.), and naval stores for the building, &c , of ships (435,0000, the latter being attributable to increased prices of hemp and Baltic masts and timber, and the larger expenditure of naval stores in consequence of the war. In the army accounts the grant aiid expenditure meet very closely, the gross excess being 318,0001., and the saving 286,0001., leaving but 33,0001. net Gxcess, which was at the time provided for by a expplementary vote of par !lament at the outbreak of the war. The principal item of increase is 39,0001. for staff officsra, and of the saving 194,0001. for "laud force," Un.ier the bead of com missariat" the expenditure exceeds the amourit of ordi• nary grant by 631,000/., which excess was provided for by a vote of the House of Commong. The ordnance ac counts show that the sum expended fell short of that granted by the net amount of 340,0001. THE BROAD GAUGE RAILWAY Tp SOUTHAMPTON.— SOUTHAMPION, Oct. 16. —This afternoon a meeting was held at the Town-I:all, in accordance with a requisition to the Mayor, signed by the principal inhabitants and owners of property in the town and neighbourhood, for the purpose of advocating and aiding the construction of a broad gauge line of railwayltoconnect Southampton with Bristol and the southern portion of Wales. Mr. R. Andrews, mayor, pres.ded. Among those present were Sir E. Butler, several members of the corporation, and other gentlemen officially connected with the port. Re solutions were proposed and unanimously adopted in favour of the immediate carrying out of the project, and a body of gentlemen selected from the meeting to co-ope rate with a committee previously appointed by the town council have been intrusted with the perfecting of the necessary praliminaries in connection with the under taking. THE LOSS OP . THE . ROYAL MAIL STEAMER TAY. Many conflicting statements (says the Scotsman), have been abroad about the loss or safe arrival of.the Royal Mail stea.merToy. The following. letter from one of the officers of the Tay, whiCh has just reached the relatives (.f the writer at Edinburgh, via New Orleans and New York, will interest our readers : ("Tampico, Sept, 6, 1856. "The purr old. Tay is lost. Thank God, all hut three are saved! and we are now in Tampico, where we are recruiting ourselves after the trials we have undergone, for we are all of ua more or less debilitated by exposure. I hope you will receive this letter as soon as the news of the loss of. - the ship reaches England, to prevent you being uneasy. We struck about half-past son the morn ing of the 30th of August, and were obliged to abandon the ship about four hours atter. I have lost- nearly everything, as also have the rest. We had to pull about 13 miles to an island called Lobos, where we re mained four days. We luckily found two wells of water on the island, or we should all have perished. We were lost on the coast between Vera Cruz and Tampico, just off Lobos. As soon al-we knew that we could not save the ship, the second officer and Admiralty agent, with mails and passenger's, . started for Tampion, which we thought they would reach in twelve hours, instead of which they took 'three days ; and after ail did not get there, as they were obliged to beach the boat, before they got there, in a heavy surf. They started in such a harry that they found, when they had left the ship, that they had only about a -gallon of water amongst thirty people. They landed to look for water, but they were "all so weak that they were unable to ,walk to look forit. When the sun went down the heat was not so intense, and they were able to crawl about ; fortunately they then found some, and also someinchans,, who provided them with some horses to ride to Tampico. The Mexi cans immediately sent down on of their frigates to take us off (from the island of Lobos.) You may imagine our - delight when-we saw ,her heave in sight. We arrived here last night (Sept. 5.) lam now I gnite well—only a little weak. The ladies in the boat behaved admirably. Poor things, they were nearly dead. Imagine testy. eight hours without water, exposed to a sun which no one without compulsion exposes himself to. I took off some of the passengers, and went in one of our life-boats with what provisions we could save, and put them into the other boats outside the surf. We fortunately lowered our boats as soon as we struck. If we had not done so, we should have been unable to do it a quarter of an hour afterwards, as the sea was breaking over us. The life boat behaved beautifully. The captain left the ship last of all ; he behaved in a most noble way. . . I ought to be very thankful it did not happen in my watch ; but I sup pose we shall all have to come home to be examined, but Ido not knew as yet. We _shall not leave here for above a month, as there is no means of getting to St. Thomas sooner. We are sending our letters by a small schooner which will go to Neva' York via New Orleans. I hope you will get this letter safely. We went in the boat from Lobos three days running, to see if we could rescue anything, but the surf was so great that we could not manage it, except on the third day, when we got on board, and found a few eatables and some live stock. Lots of the fowls were dead, and also the sheep." WREEK OF THE BARQUE IRRAWADDY, WITH Loss OF LIFE.—The lose of this vessel has been reported at Lloyd's. The occurrence is described as follows, in a letter dated Wexford, Oct. 15 :—" On Monday night, at half-past nine o'clock, wud S.S.E., strong, with a heavy sea on, the barque Irrawaddy, Captain Millar, of and from Glasgow for Rangoon and Moulmein zith a cargo of 700 tons of goods on beard, struck nesx the south end of the Blackwater Bank, and in a short time bilged. Twelve of the crew, including the captain and chief officers, arrived here early yesterday morning, some of them with very little clothing, being the watch below, but three seamen were washed overboard and drowned." Siace the above was written we have learned that the ship has floated off the bank, and drifted on the main land near to Calcite Point. She was a new ship, built of the best teak wood at Rangoon, and had only made tier first voyage to Glasgow. The cargo also, we hear, was a very valuable one. Mr. Harper, J.P., agent for Lloyd's here, set off early in the morning for the neighbourhood of the disaster, and will, of course, endeavour to save as much of the wreck and cargo as possible. The Board of Trade have ordered a light ship to be placed on this dangerous shoal as soon as possible, and it is hoped this wilt have the effect of preventing any further wrecks thereon. SARDINIA AND THE AUSTRIAN SEQUESTRA TIONS IN ITALY. (Front the Correspondence Italienne ) All the world knows that several months ago the Austrian Government availed itself of the " indiscreti .n" of a Getmln newspaper to convey to the Loin bardic- Venetian emigrants an intimation teak,—trftless they should present before the end of the year a direct re quest for the removal of the sequestrations from their estate, that Government would feel iteelt at linerty to proceed to, the sale of the property. V....nce nn.i gegiand, on the oth , -, ban,/. were aware that the execution of this measure by the Vienna cabinet would compel the Sardinian ministry to take measures of the gravest kind. In order to avoid now entangle ments, the two powers resolved to make a strong appeal to Count Buol, and advise him to abandon an intention perilous to the tranquillity of Italy, Count Buol, if we are rightly informed, intimated that one of the objects of the Emperor's journey to Italy is this very one of proclaiming a general amnesty and taking off the sequestrations ; that his Majesty designed to visit his Lombardo-Venetiau kingdom in the course of the month of November; and that it was therefore unnecessary that any one should press on the Austrian Government a course on which the Emperor had already resolved. France and England had a right to believe that this language was meant seriously. In fact, some time ago the Austrian newspapers gave out that the Emperor of Austria was about to visit Milan in the month of November ' • afterwards it was said that the journey would not take place before De cember ; and now, lastly, the Milan Gazette has just announced that his Majesty will not set out for Lom bardy before the first week in January. What can be more simple than the explanation of this delay ? The masons, the carpenters, the upholsterers cannot complete before the end of the year the repairs and alterations necessary to prepare the palaces at Milan and Venice for the Emperor's use, and his Majesty is, therefore, compelled - to postpone his Journey; But we believe this delay has a cause which the Milan Gazette has not mentioned. On the 31st of December will expire the term of grace granted to the emigrants in which to pray the removal of the sequestrations. His Majesty, by keeping himself back until the month of January, that is to say, until after the fatal day, will hold over the emigrants the menace of the sale of ? their estates in the event of their not presenting their petitions to Marshal Radetzky before Dec. 31. The Austrian Government, it is well known, has never been willing to recognise the right of the Sardinian Go vernment to undertake the defence of the emigrant 4 who have tecome na:a a'.ised in Piedmont. And although the sequestration was nothing but an outrage to Sar dinia, Austria has persisted and still persists in that system, notwithstanding the good offices of France and England, whom Count Boot put off with declarations which the event uniformly denies. If Austria really intends to resolve this question of the sequestrations in the manner which justice has for these four years de manded, why does she leave in all its force the decree appointing the 31st December the term after which estates lying under sequestration shall be sold ? If the Emperor would himself cut the knot, why have orders been given quite recently to the Lombard delegations to have all in readiness fur sales in the month of January ? Either it is true that the Emperor is about to put an end to the present violation of international law, and application on the part of the emigrants would then be come superfluous, for the decree which proscribes them would be revoked ; or it is not true, and in this latter case the bad faith of Austria should not rob it of the courage to say that it persists in its design of throwing down the glove of defiance to the Sardiuian Govern. meat. The Cabinet of Vienna is free to pursue the exeoation of its plan, if that is most agreeable to it ; the Cabinet of Turin, we believe, will know and do its duty. The Nacian says that a wager was proposed and accepted, in one of the political salons of Madras, by an ex-Constituent Deputy of the Moderado fraction and another political personage.

DAVID GIBSON.—We regret to have to record the early death of Mr. David Gibson, a young artist of great promise, who was :s ireqiient exhi- Vtor in the Royal Scottish Academy's Exhitetion, and whose name i; no doubt familiar to those who take an interest in the fine arts. Mr. Gibson was educa , ed in Edinburgh, and although. his early artistic career *as not marked by anything very notable, those who knew him well entertained hopes which were likely to be fully rea lised, when death removed himfrom the scene of earthly labour. His first decided success was in the Royal Aca demy's Exhibition in 1855, when he exhibited tw , i pie. tures of very considerable merit—the largest of which was called "The Little Stranger." Bath of these works found purchasers. About this time the state of Mr. Gibsoe's health induced his medical adviser to prescribe a journey to a warmer climate, and accordingly he pro ceeded to Spain, where he prosecuted his art aOh great enthusiasm. He sent several pictures to the 11,,,yae Aca demy Exhibition of this season, and at the private view the largest of them was puichased by Mr. Cresvtick, the eminent landscape painter, for 150 guineas. This work excited a lively interest among the London artists and connoisseurs, and gained for Mr. Gibson the friendship of Sir E. Landsecr, and several other distinguished men. Commissions for pictures now flowed in upon him from all quarters; but his life was near it; close, and he died deeply regretted by all who know him, just as he bed entered upon a career of fame and fortunes—Scottish Pam THE MOORS AND FORESTS. (From the Banffshire Journal.) The late rains and great dearth of birds have caused sp irtsmen totally to abandon the grouse beats. Those who had not the privilege of deer•stalking or cover shooting have returned south in disgust. The number of game kilted clearly shows that this se a son has been the worst ever seen in the north. Nor need ninth better sport be expected next year, let the remaining stock breed ever so well, as the bags made this year have been almmt entirely filled with old birds. The are princi pally cocks, from which it appears that the tape proves more fatal to the female bird than the male. In the forests, the stalkers are doing excellent avork, although they have had to contend against excessive rains and changenhle winds for the past fortnight. The distinguished party at Glenfiddich have dosed their shooting for the season after enjoying unprecedented success among the deer. On Monday, the 6th inst., Lord Littowel brought down a stag of 9 points ; and the same day Major Armitage had two of 8 and 10 points. Prince Edward of Saxe Weimar was out four days, killing in that time six stags, all of them heavy animals, with fine heads. The Earl of March went out two days, when four stage fell before his rifle. Major Granville was out on Friday, and knocked over a pretty stag of 10 points. The party at Glenfiddich have, in all, killed this season no fewer than 70 stags, and three binds, their average weight being 14 stones clean. Lord H. BentinCk has returned from Ardverikie: Lodge to his shooting quarters at Lagganauld, and en joys good sport at deer-stalking. On Friday, the 3d inst., his lordship went to the forest and brought 'down a royal stag, which has been seen in the forest for some time past, and considered the King of the Forest. On Saturday, the '4th, his lordship was out, and brought down two stags. On Monday, the 6t,h, his lordship had three stags ; on Tuesday, the 7th, three stags, weighing 'front 14 to 17 stones atter being cleaned out ; and on , Wednesday, the Bth, another stag—thus, in five succe?- sire days, bringing down no fewer than ten splendid stags with his own rifle. , In Ross :shit*, in the deer covers, some splendid sport has also been enjoyed. Our enrritspondent in that quar ter, writing on Saturday, stye- John La Touche, EN., is prosecuting this laborious and exciting amusement daily with most excellent allows& In Stratho nnan, on tie 9th, his success was still better. At the first shot he 11 ought down a Royal deer, which had beautiful palmated cups at the extremities of the horns. A second Shot from the same rifle sent its fatal contents through the heart of a noble stag of 10 points. This animal had finely forked antlers, the head being considered superior to the Royals. It was sent the following day to Inverness for preserva tion. Next day the same sportsman shot another 10- pointer. Mr. La Touche's total number of stags up to Friday evening, the 10th, was 42, amongst which a great number were Royal 'ln Mr. Murray's deer covers, at Craigdarrach, some fine spurt has been got. In one day's drive, Captain M'Kenzie, of Ord, shot down 6 head, consisting of 4 roe, 1 stag, and 1 bind. Captain Baring and Mr. Murray shot each a roe deer the same day. Oa the 4th the party at Coul House made a first-rate bag to two guns. They shotjl34 Alpine hares, 4 brace of grouse, 3 pheasants, 5 rabbits, 2 woodcock, and 2 roe deer, being 154 head in one day." THE TYNE SAILORS' 110413.—This noble institution, which is completed and furnished, will be opened at North Shields on Tuesday next by his Grace the Duke of Northumberland, and presented to the port. It has cost his grace between 8,0001. and 9,0001., and will fur nish most ample accommodation for 108 seamen. 2,0001. has also been contributed by the shipowners and mer chants of the Tyne for an endowment. The extension of those institutions to the principal towns in Great Britain promises in a few years to vastly improve the habits of the seafaring population. There are now Sailors' Homes in Well-Qtreet, London ; Poplar Sunderland, North Shields, Liverpool, Bristol, Cardiff, Falmouth, Daven port, Plymouth, Dover, Portsmouth, Dublin, Belfast, Cork, Queenstown, Limerick, Glasgow, Greenock, and Leith; and others are building. LADY NovnisTs.7--The fair writers have evidently never talked to a tradesman except from a carriage win dow ; they have no notion of the working classes except as " dependents ; they think 5001. a year a miserable pittance ; Belgravia and " baronial halls" are their pri mary truths, and they have no idea of feeling interest in any man who is not at least a great landed proprietor, it not aPi ime Minister.. It is clear they write in elegant boudoirs, with violet-coloured ink and a ruby pen ; that they must be entirely indifferent to publishers' accounts, and inexperienced in every form of poverty except poverty of brains. How admirably mid is the following :—Greek and Hebrew are mere play to a,beroine ; Sanscrit is no more than A B Cto her ; and she can talk with perfect correctness in any language except English. She is a polkiug polyglot, a Creuzer in Crinoline. Poor men ! there are so few of you who know even Hebrew ; you think it something to boast of, if, like Bolingbroke, you only " understand that sort of learning, and. what is writ about it ;" and you are perhaps adoring women who can think slightingly of you in all-lhe Semitic lan guages successively.— Westminster Review. IMPROVEMENT OF AIODLCRN LONDON.—Spsaking on this subject at the opening meeting of the Architectural Association on the 31 inst., Professor Donaldson said he recollected London some 25 years ago : there was then hardly a straight street in it. The streets Were so narrow that two omnibuses could hardly go abreast. The streets were dirty and the Thames was filthy, and there was hardly a garden around London. But since that time see the progress that bad been made. The president had said that London becomes more and more intolerable. He (Professor Donaldson) said that it be cern° more and more tolerable ; it improved every day. Look at Cannon-street. Was it not large and broad ? Were not those great mercantile magazines worthy of being palaces ? He might allude to a large number of other buildings of modern structure around London, and ask whether it really became "more and more intolerable as a place of 'residence ?" Regent-street did not exist 35 years ago: the Strand was not then as it is now. Let us have a century or two, as had been passed by foreigners in improving their cities, and London would be able to vie with any c , pital in the world.— The Builder. THE NEW METAL ALUMINIUH.—It will be interesting to both commercial and scientific men to learn that, in June last, Messrs. E. Hald and Rahr, a Danish house, sent out their brig Sonderjylland, Capt. Brocksdorf, to Arksuk Fiord, in lat. 61 deg. 20 min, on the west coast of Greenland, for the purpose of bringing back minerals, and especially cryolite, for the obtaining of which pecu• liar privileges had at different times been granted by the King of Denmark to individual and associated miners ; ann that Messrs. Held and Co. have received intelli genc) from Messrs. C. F. Fisgen and Co., to whom the brig was consigned at Copenhagen, of her safe arrival in that city on the 21st Sept., after a voyage of only 12 days (tie shortest on record), with a full load of cryo liw. This is the first cargo of cryolite received from Green. 'land; which is the only country where, as yet, it has been tound. It is a mineral composed, we believe, of sodium, aluminium, and fluorine ; but the results of analysis are given in Moh's " System of Mineralogy." M. de Lille, of Paris, has discovered a process by which aluminium may be obtained from cryolite, so as to afford it at as low a price per ounce as silver ; and, since an ounce of the former has four times the volume of an ounce of the lat ter, it will of course give us articles of plate of the same size so much cheaper, that is, at one-fourth the price. Besides this metal and crystals of soda, a clay is obtain able, which, will be valuable to calico printers as a sub stitute for a compound of alum and sugar of lead. PLATING AT HANGING. , --A preliminary examination was opened yesterday before Mr. W. 11. Maude, West Riding magistrate, at the Leeds Infirmary, into the cir cumstances which had resulted in the injury of a boy named John Maris, who is now lying dangerously ill at that institution. The examination was opened an the suggestion of the medical man having the charge of Harris; and from Harris's deposition it will be seen that three buys, named J. Firth, B. Preston, and A. Sharp, are charged with having caused him serious bodily harm. The deposition of John Harris was as follows :—" I am 12 years of age. My mother's name is Ann Harris. She is a widow residing at Batley. I have worked at Mr. Jubb's mill at Batley abcut three weeks. On Fri day, the 3d inst., I went t ) work at 7 o'clock. I worked until 8, and then gave up for breakfast. I gotmy break fast in the top storey of the mill, wherel worked, and in which there is a crane. Near the crane is a trap door. There were three boys besides myself, named J. Firth, Benj. Preston, and Abraham Sharp, who also reside at Batley. I have been told that Firda is 16 years old, Preston 15, and Sharp 13. With the exception of Preston, whom I have known about two months, they worked at the same mill with me, and I have known them about two years. About 9 o clock the boys were play ing, and said they would hang Palmer, and Firth said they would hang him with me. I said, 'You shall not bang Palmer with me, and I set off and ran to my work. Preston ran after me, caught me, and brought me back, and then Sharp tied a rope under my arms, round my body, the others assisting him. The Firth tied the rope to the crane. I tried to get loose, hut coniG not. I told them to let rue go, but they never spoke. There was no one in the top storey of the rniil but ue, and I had not time to call out. The mill a-as at work. When t e repo was fastened to the crane some one was drawing a sheet of wool up, and that set the crane agoing. I was drawn up to the beam, about two yards from the floor. The two boys Sharp and Preston then ran away to their work, and after cards Firth went down stairs. The chain of the crane caught me, and folded round me. The chain squeezed my body, and I could nut ca"l out. I was sick with it, and I think I remained an hour, but cannot tell. I was then insensible. I found myself at home afterwards. They put leeches on my head, and brought me down on Wednesday to the infirmary. I am sure I did not play with the other boys, and they tied the nape round rue against my wish. Firth has thrashed me many a time when I have gone for water, but the two others have never thrashed me." On cross examination by Sharp, Harris said that no one had hold of the rope when he got fast. After remaining sus pemied for a short time, Harris was taken down by one of the workpeople, and on examination it was found that he bad sustained a fracture of one arm, and such serious spinal injury as to cause para!ysis over thedower After taking the deposition, the three boys were reman ded until Tuesday next, but admitted to bail. I I
