Further Addition in 1855. Total Addition (From Dr. Ross's Journal, 11!melt 17, 1854.) Left the ship at Ip.m. in medical charge of an expedition letached to ascend the River Chuquanaqua. The following are the names of the individuals engaged in this service : NE., W. C. Forsyth, senior lieutenant ; Mr. Henry Hills, acting paymaster (volunteer) ; Dr. Wm. Ross, assistant geon ; Mr. G. Parsons, gunner ; Wm. Polling, captain of the forecastle; Win. Ashcroft, Wm. Jeffery, Wm. Dunsford, Thomas Aikenhead, Win. Chandler, Wm. Hockey, R. Blake, Win. Behema, R. Kingswell, Job u Walsh, John Tower, and Gallagher, able seamen, with G. Julier, T. Orral, R.M. A. The object of this expedition is to search for a missing party of 27 officers and men who left the United States ship Cyane, in Port Escoces, Caledonia Bay, Atlantic, on the 19th of January last, with the intention of exploring the isthmus in a south-westerly direction to Darien harbour. Theyhave not since been heard of, but are said to have boon traced to the left bank of the Chuquanaqua by Indians, who carried the intelligence to Port Escoces. It is pre sumed that, mistaking this river for the Savanna, they are now wandering on its banks in a state of starvation, as it is known they only took eight days' provision with them; or that they have been destroyed by the same hostile Indians 'who waylaid and murdered our own men. The former supposition is borne out with some degree of probability by the fact, that the course of the latter river is only 20 miles from the former, where it is a considerable stream; and near which, coming from the Atlantic, it is likely they would strike it ; and that the Chuquanaqua, after a very winding course along the centre of the isthmus, it is said of above 150 miles, terminates in the Tuyra, which empties itself into Darien harbour within a mile of the mouth of the SA. vana. As remarked on the 7th Jan., in the description of this river, it opens into Darien harbour after nearly a straight course of between 25 and 30 miles. The latter supposition is not probable, as the party was well armed, and not likely, from what is known of Indian character, to have been faced by treble their number of imperfectly armed savages. The American exploring party had for its object the isthmus, and reporting to Government as to the possibility of cutting a ship canal from sea to sea. The searching expedition returned at 1 a.m. of the 30th March, after the absence of a fortnight. The following is an account of our proceedings, taken from a daily journal kept by me : " We left the ship at anchor in Darien harbour, and em barking in one of the paddlebox-boats, we took advantage of the flood tide, and ascended the river Tuyra, a distance of about 20 miles, anchoring, when the ebb commenced, at 3 a.m. By noon the tide turned, and again getting under a ay, we arrived at the village of Yavisa at 9 p.m. ; this place is 15 miles from Darien harbour, and is spoken of as the capital of the Isthmus of Darien ; it is simply a collec tion of bamboo houses or huts covered with palm leaves, irregularly arranged, or rather strewed, about a level piece of ground on the right bank of the river. Its population consists of 250 or 300 mulattoes, whose language is broken Spanish, and who are presided over by an official termed Jefe Politico,' appointed by the New Granadian Govern ment, which claims jurisdiction over this part of the Ame rican continent. These people obtain a miserable liveli hood, partly by hunting and cultivating maize and plan : . tains ; in winter they saw up trees, the growth of the neigh bouring forest, which they transport to Panama in large canoes in the shape of planks, and there dispose of them for spirits, clothing, Scc. At its mouth the Tuyra is about one and a half or two miles wide, but at Chapigana, a village on its left bank, eight miles up, it narrows to loss than one mile, and gradually contracting at Yavisa, it s only 40 yards aide; it has a depth of from three to four fathoms, which it carries a little above Chapigana ; becom ing shallower at the place where we anchored, it expands into a wide bay, in which are numerous sand and mud banks, rendering navigation rather difficult, except at high or low water, the former carrying you over all these impe diments, and the latter rendering them visible. The deepest part here is close to the sight bank. The mangrove is not so abundant on this river as on the Savannah. It is more common for a distance of 7 or 8 miles above Chapigana than below it. This river extends itself inland on both sides into several creeks, which, in one or two places, spread out and have the appearance of lakes. The only tributary of any consequence is the Molineca, which joins it on its leftbank, about midway between Chapigana and Yavisa. The water here is perfectly fresh, and of a delicious, s meet, and pleasant flavour. "The Tuyra has a very varied course ; ascending from Darien harbour to Chapigana, it is easterly ; it then goes' fer 8 miles nearly due south, and suddenly bends, fur a short distance, at right angles to the eastward ; it. now takes a south-easterly direction for about 5 or 6 miles ; for the 10 succeeding miles it goes nearly north ; and finally bending and turning on itself for almost 6 miles it arrives at Yavisa. Opposite this village is the junction of the Chu quanaqua and Yavisa rivers. At Yavisa we obtained six canoes and 11 natives to assist in navigating them, and at 1) a.m. of the 18th, we started in the canoes, being taken in tow by the paddle-box boat ; assisted by the flood, we rapidly ascended the Chug unaqua, anchoring at sunset in mid-channel, and spending the night in the boat. We hero had a narrow escape from destruction, for about midnight an immense forest tree, growing close to the water's edge, the roots of which had been denuded by the current of sur rounding earth, became loosened and fell with a tremen dous crash into the water, just clearing by a foot or two boat,ocaunroes,w or i f ni t t u s n f a a t l ey l l cutting off the stern of one of our had been moored alongside, but being larger than the boat, projected beyondits stern. This was a salutary caution, and in future, when selecting our bivouac on shore, we did not neglect to examine as to the stability of the adjacent trees. At 6 o'clock on the morn ing of the 19th we again commenced our journey, anchor ing at noon close to the first rapids, which are distant above Yavisa about 18 miles. From the latter place to these the river carries a pretty uniform depth of three fathoms, ave rage 70 feet wide, and has nearly a direot course stretch ing towards the N.N.W. It now became necessary to take to the canoes, not so much from the general shallowness of the!water as from the commencement of the rapids and the numerous snags and trees which obstructed our passage. The boat we left at 2 p.m. of the 19th, the following indi viduals remaining in charge, with directions to await our return—viz., Mr. Parsons, gunner ; Jeffery, Dunsford, Aikinhead, Hockin, Walsh, and Gallagher, seamen ; and, accompanied by the blacks, we commenced the second part of our journey. After much labour and difficulty we were only able to accomplish a distance of about three miles, -owing to the rapidity of the current, before sunset. We moored the canoes to branches of trees, and, landing, pre pared our evening meal, retiring to rest on a dry and ele vated mud-bank, without any protection from the night daw, a blanket excepted. The remainder of our journey up may be briefly condensed by stating that during the next four days we ascended the river a distance of 67 miles that it had a most tortuous course, which reaches approach. ing almost to every point in the compass, but in the mean taking a north-north-westerly direction—that its banks were wooded by forest trees and beautiful flowering plants close to the water's edge, among which were conspicuous palm, mahogany, caoutchouc, and cedar trees; with con volvulus in abundance—that it had in general high banks, bearing evidence of having been recently subjected to the torrent of the river in a swollen condition, and that it re ceived numerous and considerable tributaries, the most important of which, rising in the Cordilleras, opened from its left bank. "In this period we were all exposed to the most fatigu ing exertions— in paddling the canoes in deep water, pul ling them over shallows, and dragging them over trees ; besides, in one or two instances, where fallen trees stretched from bank to bank, digging a canal around their roots. Meanwhile, we were day by day exposed to the intense heat of a vertical sun, and at night to heavy dews and rain, which completely saturated our blankets, and added to the annoyance of millions of the most voracious mosquitos I ever met with. This river abounds in alligators ; but, ex cept in particular localities, fish are rare. The upper part of the Chuquanaqua and its tributaries are inhabited dur ing the dry season by the Indians, who come from the more interior parts of the country to fish on its banks. We also observed numerous evidences, along the banks of their having lately visited these places, in deserted ranchos, and frameworks for drying fish. Thes6 savages are a war like race, well armed, and have never yet been conquered, either by the old Spaniards or their descendants, although their territory is nominally under the sway of the Grana dians. To the Spaniards, as well as the blacks, they have an inveterate hatred, from remembrance of former wrone.s. They aro said invariably to kill the latter when found within their territory ; this was lately carried out in the case of five unfortunate negroo3 who not long ago strayed too far into the wood; they were seized by the Indians, killed, and, some say, eaten. An ancient law exists among them denouncing death upon all white men found without permission in their dominions; this was but too rigorously enforced in the case of our own men. At 5 p.m. of the 231 we were rejoiced by the cry of smoke being seen ahead ; several muskets were fired, and a cheer given ; these were answered, the latter but faintly, from the right bank of the river, a little in advance. Presently several people wore seen emerging from the woods, and crawling down the steep bank. They proved to be of the lost party, and a more wretched set of human beings were never be held ; so emaciated were they that, clothed in their rags, they appeared like spectres ; some had retained their arms and blankets, while others, scarcely able to drag along their own bodies, had thrown theirs away. Our first surmise attributing to them their having mistaken the Chuqua naqua for the So.vana proved to be but too well founded. They had left the Cyane, 27 in number, on the 19th of January, with eight days' provisions ; these were partly destroyed by their having boon upset in the surf in laud ing. They Wicended. the Caledonia river for some distance in search of a gap iu the Cordilleras, said to exist in that neighbourhood, but, failing to find out this, crossed the summit of the range at a supposed elevation of 1,300 feet. On the third day out two officers and throe men strayed from the party and lost themselves ; they were. however, fortunate enough to reach the ship in safety. This intelli gence we received before leaving Panama. The main body, under Lieutenant Strain, continued its course to the Peels fic, being guided by natives engaged from Port Escoces for the purpose, down a stream on which was an Indian vils lags in flames,* to the Chequanaqua, which they were in formed was the Savana. They struck the river on the 28th January, and when they had finished the last of their pro visions. Knowing that the Savana gained the sea after a course of 25 miles, and calculating to arrive at Darien harbour at furthest in three or four days, during which they imagined they could find sufficient sustenance on its banks, they determined on prosecuting their journey, al though now deserted by their guides. They continued following the river, which they crossed, suffering much from want of food and lacerated feet, until the 13th of February, when the marches became so short, owing to the debilitated state of the greater number, that it was resolved to send a party in advance tasobtain assistance. Accordingly on this day Lieutenant Strain and three others of the strongest detached themselves from the party, and after suffering great hardships, sometimes travelling along the banks, and at other times progressing by means of rafts, which they formed, and which in succession were destroyed by rapids and snags, they arrived at Yavisa on the 9th of March, in nearly a perishing condition. " Almost naked, and with their bodies lacerated in a shocking manner from the brushwood, &c., they there engaged several canoes, and despatched them to the aid of their comrades, with provisions and the other neces saries of which their companions were in want. On the 17th this relief party returned• to Yavisa, having ascended the river a distance of 60 miles. Having reached a point on the left bank where they ieuad a. newly made grave, and a letter addressed to Mr. Strain, they returned on their way down. A little below this they picked up one man who had strayed from the main body ; he, however, could give but little account of himself, as he soon became delirious and died. The letter was from the officer left in command, dated the 6th of March, and to the effect that they had followed the river thus far, where one man had died of starvation ; that, seeing no probability of a near approach to the sea, and despairing of aid from be low, they bad determined to make a retrograde movement and attempt to regain their ship. On receiving this Mr. Strain attempted to persuade the people to return in the canoes and follow them, at the same time offering to ac company them, but they declined, from dread of the In dians. Failing of this, and hearing of the Virago having arrived at Darien harbour, he immediately started theuce to ask assistance. We fortunately met him 18 miles be low Yavisa, and he returned with us. The main body we came up with, as they had halted for the night. In addi tion to the two deaths already noticed, they had lost one seaman and two New Grenadian commissioners, who had died of starvation. It was evident to us that i❑ not many days nearly all would have died from the same cause. 'From the 27th of February to the 22d of March they had existed chiefly on several species of palm nuts ; one of these, when roasted, was rather sweet and palatable ; another so in tenEely acid as to have completely divested their teeth of enamel. Of these they ate immense quantities ; but they afforded little nourishment; they were excessively astrin gent in their nature, and caused long-continued constipa tion, lasting, in one instance, 22 days. In nearly all the intellect was in a slight degree affected, as evinced by childish and silly remark, although their memory and the recollection of their sufferings were unimpaired. Individu ally they had given themselves up for lost ; and their excessive joy at being unexpectedly snatched from death was, in some measure, sufficient to account for this. Bodily they had all suffered severely. All, on leaving the ship, had been stout, healthy men ; now they were literally living skeletons, covered with foul ulcers and phlegmons. From retracing their former route, in which they had cut down nearly all the palm trees affording nuts, these were getting scarce ; and, as game is hardly seen on the banks of this river, it is more than probable that a few days would have finished the whole of the party. They were, of course, ravenous for food, and it is singular that their first request should have been for sugar and tobacco. They being handed over to my care, I gave directions that nothing should be given to them except what I ordered myself. I had prepared for them some weak soup and bouilli, with rice, giving them each meanwhile a small quantity of port wine and water. On the morning of the 24th, notwithstanding they ha' „mrtaken of such nourish ment as they had not even hoard of for 57 days, many of them could not move, and had to be carried into the ca noes. They had discovered their own weakness, in feeling now that all necessity for exertion on their part was ended. In our journey down the river we numbered 37—quite as many as the canoes could with safety hold. The same nourishment as given on the 23d was repeated frequently, and in small quantities. Ore the 26th we arrived at the boat. Here one of the party, owing to the mistaken kind ness of those about him, had an epileptic fit, brought on by over-repletion. On the evening of the 27th we are iced at Yavisa, where I regret to say one of the party died ; he was in the last stage of debility, and, during the journey down, had only been kept alive by stimulants. On the 30th we arrivei on board. Part of the Americans are 10. ceted on shore at a neighbouring village called La Palma. They are rationed from the ship, and have whatever else they require from our mess, and are visited daily by my self or Dr. Travan. All are still in a debilitate i state, but, with one exception, are recovering. This individual is a civil engines, attached to the party. " Regarding the effects produced on our own men dur leg this expedition, I have only to remark that, as yet, none of them have complained. Quinine was every morn ing issued to them as a preventive of fever. Purgative medicine he I once or twice to be given for constipation ; from the quantity of vegetable matter contained in the river, of the water of which we drank abundantly, quite the reverse state of the bowels might have bean expected. During our absence a mica of levels have been cairied across the isthmus, along our route from the Savana to the Chuquenaqua, the right bank of the latter being found to be Ir.o fs 3t, and the bed of the river 97 feet above the level of the sea." * Sucubti.

Although several absentees were re ported, and complaints were occasionally heard, yet a large majority of the heaviest accounts were wound up ; and altogether the meeting, regarded from a pecuniary point of view, may be termed "harmless." Although the two leading events—the Great Yorkshire Handicap and • the St. Leger—were won by "outsiders," yet few book makers were large winners—many of them having de termined to "get out" of the money which they stood against Ellington at any price, and others having been great losers by the result of certain minor races. Still the money is pretty well distributed. It is said that the persons who generally support the Whitewall Stable have not thrown in for any very largesum by the success of Warlock, whose owner trusted the horse for a compara tively small amount, which he divided amongst his friends. The meeting was surpassingly successful. During the four days 29 races were centeste.d, inclusive of the decid ing heat for the Queen's Plate on the Tuesday. Two stakes only failed to produce a race, but as a set-offagainst this shortcoming there was the unusual incident of a dead heat for second place between Artillery and Bonnie Scotland for the St. Leger, The aggregate number of starters for the different stakes was 243, an increase of 44 over that brought out lest year. The meeting proved to be unexpectedly strong in an item of sport which had been deemed unusually weak. The handicaps—which had been much criticised, and against which a violent prejudice had been created—produced in nearly every in stance close and interestine races, and the stewards, who were responsible for the adjustment of the weights, had cause for gratulation in the practical negation which the results of their labours gave to fault-fieffergi and cavillers. To allot imposts to a large number of animals, in accord. ance with the preconceived notions of all raci g men, and to adopt a scale of weights which will suit the ideas of every turfite, is a task which even the most expe rienced handicapper has failed to accomplish, for a wide difference of opinion exists as to the merits of many animals, and it is this difference of opinion which produces speculation. The paucity of acceptances fur the Great Yorkshire Handicap, and the seemingly un• !lie leniency displayed in the weighting of Jack Sheppard for the Corporation Plate, were the main causes of the prejudice which was raised. The success ef the top weight Typee for the "Great Yorkshire," and the strong fields which contested the other handi caps, will perhaps convince clerks of courses that a high standard of weight is not incompatible with an interest ing race and a large number of starters. The two-yr-old races were marked by much prosper ' 'lye importance. The result of the race for the Eglinton Stakes brought Tournament from the outside division into a prominent position in the Derby betting. The running of Blink Bonny increased a reputation which was temporarily diminished at York : while Bel Oiseau, who, hal been frequently backed, was beaten by so mo derate an animal, that his name is not likely again to figure in the list of quotations. Amongst the other two sr-olds of mark and likelihood that ran at the meeting were Ignoramus, whose most important engagement next year is he The St. Leger, and Tasmania, a remark • ably fine filly, by Melbourne, that, unfortunately for its owner, is not entered for one of the three great races next season—The Derby, Oaks, or St. Leger. An account of the proceedings at Doncaster would be imperfect without a reference to the sales of blood stock which took place on each race day. Although the Cata logues put forth by the Messrs. Tat'zersatl and Mr. It. Johnson were strong in the number of lots, yet expec tation was disappointed by the comparative shyness of ' , uyers. The foreign market was not so well represented as had been anticipated, and in only a few instances was the bidding brisk, The highest-priced yearling was a bay colt (brother to Lord of the Isles), which was sold -,o Mr. J. Merry for 710 guineas—not so much by 1,000 guineas as was given for Lord of the Hil:s last year. The bay yearling colt, brother to One Act, was knocked dswn to Lord Landesberough for 560 guineas ; and a Brown colt by Annardale, out of Calista, to Mr. J. Day for 330 guineas. Of Mr. Cookson's yearlings the highest prices were realised by Volta, by Voltigeur (400 gs.), and Botany, by Melbourne (300 gs.) The former sold to Mr. Nichol, the latter to Mr. Ilovvard. A bay mare by Pan , taloen, and a filly foal by Melbourne, were purchased for the royal paddocks, Hampton-court. The stud horses did not attract much attention. Dervish, the first fa vourite for the Derby in 1854, was sold for 65 guineas. Voivode, 3 yv, who was purchased at Donna ter when A yearling for the extraordioftry sum of 1,020 guineas, was knocked down for 50 guineas. The late Mee Worthing ton's stud (13 lots) realised 1,145 guineas. The Bay thorpe yearlings (four lots) 230 guineas. Mr. Cookson's y-earlings.(eix lots) 1,086 guineas. Mr. A. Johnstone's yearlings (15 lots) 2,666 guineas ; and Lord Londes borough's yearlings and brood mares •(seven lots) 606 guineas. Such is a brief resume of the leading inceienta of the Doncaster meeting, the business of which was, as we have stated, brought to a conclusion to-day by the settling. During the intervals of paying and receiving soecuiation was resumed on the Cesarewitch and Cam bridgeshire ; fur the former Middleton Wag made the fa vourite, and for the latter Polmoodie, perhaps, had the " call."

(From the'Daily News.) BRUSSELS, SEPT. 20. The Hotel de Suede appears to have been made theheadquarters of the gentlemen who, representing the various nations of Europe, are about to meet for the discussion of the principles of Free Trade. The nations, it would appear, have responded to the invitation of the Belgians with alacrity. Even Spain, generally torpid in these matters, has sent two commissioners ; while Holland has proved, by her representatives, that she is advancing bravely to that style of commercial freedom which we enjoy. It must be confessed that the moment for the Congress is opportune. The King has just com pleted a round of triumphs in the various cities of his kingdom. The principles which he propounded when he stepped upon the throne have been faith fully adhered to. Encompassed by great despotic govern ments, he has been enabled by proper con cessions to public business, to respect the freedom of his people, and to maintain order, when Sur rounded by the clamour of an European revolu tion. A quarter of a century lias shown that the Belgian people know how to govern themselves ; and there is perhaps no stranger contrast upon the face of the earth than that presented to the travel ler who approaches Brussels from the French fron tier. On one side of a railway station you must talk politics in a whisper—you must be chary, in the use of names. On the other, you may talk, loudly about the imperial policy, and, if it so please you, deploy a sheet of L' Homme up on y our knees. Well, it is on this, the free side, that a certain number of gentlemen, interested in the simplifica tion of tariffs, and in the general march of nations towards commercial -freedom, determined to meet to discuss the principleS of Free Trade, and their influence upon the world.. , Since last the question was raised on the Conti nent the world has seen many and astounding politi cal changes. And men have grown on the whole wiser ; because every civilised nation has become daily better acquainted with its neighbours. 'We need not look beyond this city to be convinced of the fact. The prejudiced men who, while crying for political freedom, as loudly called for commer cial bondage, are disappearing. Little knots of clear-sighted men —generally, let us allow, moved by their personal interests—are arising all over the Continent to do battle with high tariffs ; to point to the greatness of free-trade England in compari son with protected France or Belgium ; and to demonstrate the necessity of competing with Great Britain by a loyal rivalry on fair grounds, rather than behind solidly built custom-houses. Among the continental nations where the policy of free trade has been ventilated, we must place Belgium first and Holland second. There are men—and eminent commercial men in this city, in Antwerp, and in Liege—who have openly pronounced in favour of a policy that should end in complete com mercial freedom. Only on the 17th of last Febru ary the Belgian Association for Promoting Customs Reforms met to point out to the public the absurd construction of the Belgian tariff. And absurd enough does this tariff appear when we find that Belgium—after England, the largest producer of iron and coal upon the face of the earth—is com pelled to buy her iron ships from Holland ; that the ship-builders of Bremen and Hamburg can build at 25 'per cont. less cost than the Belgian ship-builder. And why ? Because, in the absence of competition, the raw materials cost the Belgian builder 60 per cent. more than their intrinsic value. If you turn to the article of spun cotton for a second illustra tion—an article without which lace manufacturers cannot exist—we find that while spur cotton above No. 170 English, pays an import duty of on l y ss. per 200 lbs., all coarser threads are kept out of the country by a tariff so exorbitant as to amount to prohibition. .f he consequence is, according to one of the leading Belgian houses, that the man iifac t tire of tulle with threads below N 0.170 is ivapossible in Belgium. The foregoing instances may suffice to give the reader an idea of the state in which the Customs tariff of Belgium remains. It is at once as ingenious and as illiberal as that of France ; for while the French custom-house officer is kept on the look-out fur wolfs' teeth that he may levy a duty upon every hundred, the Belgian douanier is directed to prohibit the transit through the Belgian territory of nightingales and linnets. But it is when the French and Belgian Governments meet to arrange mutual treaties that we discover the ex travagances of which a protective system is capable. In a treaty passed between the two countries on the 27th of February, 1851, we find spun hemp and flax placed upon a sliding :scale of 130 steps. Thus there are no less than 180 distinct duties on these threads. Such ingenious protective ladders re quire exceedingly clever custom-house officers to use them. And the result is significant. The Belgian custom-house officer appears sorely puz zled when called upon to place any article upon the endless sliding scale of the country. He may be seen measuring and weighing, cutting, and apply ing his magnifying glass to cotton threads, to iron, to seed, to tobacco, to pottery, dried fish, &c., sorely puzzled where to class any single object. Indeed, so utterly bewildered wore the Customs authorities on the passing of the memorable treaty to which I have referred that on the morrow of its signature an international congress was held at Lille to endeavour to unravel it. And what is the result of all this protective in genuity ? Why, that a revenue of eleven or twelve millions of francs costs between 25 and 30 per cent. in collection. More, the heavy protective duties , levied in Belgium upon raw material—upon iron and cotton thread, for instance—far from assuring labour to the working classes, limits it. As I have already remarkd, the free ports of the Baltic can build iron ships 25 per cent. cheaper than the Belgian shipbuilders. Holland almost monopolises the iron ship-building of Belgium. Aud why ? Because free trade Holland re ceives English iron at the rate of 10s. per 200115., while protected Belgium has to buy iron raised from her own soil and smelted with native coal, some three shillings dearer I But this is not all. T e o h u e n i t r r o y n m - m e n a s t t o e r p s a o y f u L p i e w g a e r , d t s v h of l f e the 1. 1 ypel their rte c e o n m shillings for 200 lbs. of iron, are able to sell the same quan tity at Rotterdam (where they are not protected) at the English price. Thus the natural richness of the soil is made a curse instead of a blessing. It :s the commerce of Holland—not of Belgium—that the duty on iron protects. If we turn to the coal trade we find the same story repeated. The French man buys Belgian coal between 10 and 20 per cent. cheaper than the Belgian himself can get it. And why ? Because the Belgian is protected—or v;ai protected—against the importation of f treign coal. This glance at the Customs tariffs of Belgium will explain to the reader the eagerness with which many Belgian manufacturers have joined an asso ciation destined, let us hope, to rid them of pro tection altogether. From the organisation of such a national association to the development of an international Congress was a natural stip, more especially in Brussels, where universal peace and penal reforms have already been questions of at traction that have drawn commissioners from various parts of Europe to King Leopold's capital. And, so far as I am able to judge from the names of some of the gentlemen who compose the fixtli coming Congress, I think it will probably result in a revision of Belgian, if not of other tariffs. As already stated, we see even Spain represented. A s the Belgians had a right to expect, England has responded to their invitation by sending about forty commissioners , including six gentlemen weo have come to represent the decimal system pro posed by the active association of the Adelphi. Among other interest i ng papers to be submitted to the Congress are—one from the authorities of Bir ininghans, comparing the tariffs of various nations, and. endeavouring to show their results upon the industries which they respectively govern ; and a history of Free Trade, from Newcastle. Count Arrivabene, the President of the Eco nomistes Beiges, is, I believe, to preside over the sittings of the Congress. I append the organic rules drawn up by the central committee, which it is important to under stand in order to follow the proceedings of the Congress from day to day, and section by section : ORGANISATION. Regulations affecting the sivings and discussion.. Art. 1. Of Members.—Tae Congress is composed of delegated and adherent member... Tho delegated mein-• b , es are these who present thernselye3 furnished with an authority or delegation, either from some con,tiut d p4lWeat or witn4iutrative body, or from a reguiarl.. established corporation or society.

Tee delegated as well as the adherent mend) _rs must sign the minute book of the Congress, which will be deposited in the secretary's office, and during the t-ittings in the meeting ball ; they will receive in exchan. , e a medal, card, or ribbon, which will entitle them to admission to all places where the members of Congress may he inviter). Att. 2. Of Commutiications ,and Wrrespondence.— All communications relating to the Congress, all docu ments, printed papers, books, or lettars addressed titbit; the secretary, ..cded to 48, Rue de l'Eveque, a or t g o a t n e is o n f ti tothe who Fill etea of Brufsee, rect of each in a register kept for the per. S pose. No communication will be submitted to the Congress except after an er.amieation by a committer/ appointed ad hoc. Art. 3. Objects, and means of realising them.—The object of the Congress being to coyest and form an as semblage of all facts, ideas, aryl theories relating to trade s as between nations, and to deduce from them practica conclusiona• or the benefit of the human race in general; and of each nation in particular, all opinions may be freely and fully expressed, as well in the committees as • in the general and public sittings of the Congress. Each proposition, resolution, or amendment submitte l to the Congress, must be supported by at least live members. and will be submitted to the committee to whose depart ment it more especially relates ; in case of doubt the managing committee will decide. Art. 4. Organisation of the Ce"grcss.—The Congress is divided into three principal committees, who will di vide their labours as follows : No. 1. The committee .m legi,lation. No. 2. The committee on statistics. 'iyided into three sub-committees : 1. On agricultural statistics ; 2. On manufacturing statistics ; 3. On cora nercial statistics. No. 3. The committee on proposi tions. Each member of the Congress is requested to in criloo his name on the list of such committee as he believes that he can render most assistance to. Art. 5. Functions and Meetings of the Committees. The members present in Brussels will assemble in general preparatory committee on the eve of the opeu ing of the C,rgress. This meeting will take place at 14, Rue de i'Ecuyer. At this meeting the organisation committee will submit such propositions as it eball deem moat Hie* to insure the success of the undertaking. The committee will meet each day, commencing on the 22d September, at 2 o'clock in the morning, in places provided for them. They will name their president, • secretaries, and reperters. The presidents of the cona naittee will be ex officio, members of the managing com mittee of the Congress. The reports will be made in a conden , ed form, in order not to absorb the time of the public sittings. The functions of the committee will be divided as follows : No. 1 will receive and examine all documents, propositions, and statements relating to the commercial legislation, whether domestic or interna c.in'll, of each country. It will point oat the facts of sucl legislation, the anomalies:, contradictions, and con sequences, favourable or unfavourable, resulting from it, and the modifications which might. be benefi cially introduced. Committee No. 2 will collect in its three sections or sub-committees all facts and documents, statistical or otherwise, concerning the three great branches of human industry, agricul ture, manufactures, and commerce. On the one band, the ehea.wee4q which agricultural or rnanufaetes• leg labour is subject, the cost of production - tweneral, the qu , stions as to credit and transport relating to it, the fiscal or other hindrances which lessen the tendency to production, or the favours which stimulate it. On the other hand, the statistics of international trade, the price o f produce in different countries, expenses of transport, duties, dues, taxes, or exactions to which commerce is subject, &c., so as to enable a general report to bo pre sented, furnishing a picture of the various conditions under which exchanges are effected between-all the mem bers of the human fandly. In conclusion, the third corn nittee will receive the differeat propositions which may be addressed to the Congress, will examine them, and re fer them, io case of neees , ity, to the particular commis;- tee the labours of which they relate to. It will prepare resolutions to be submitted to the Congress, and classify and examine the propositions emanating from individual members]; it will be bound to lay before the general convnittee for submission to the Congress such proposi tions only as shall be suepor,ed ly at least five int sa',ere. Every proposition, nee ution, or amerdenent whichshall not relate to one of the two general questions, to deli- - berte which the Co , gress is summoned, will at at once he rej!!cted by the committee, which will not be leveed to make any mentim of it. It will be compel. tent, however, to sabmit to the Congress for pure and simple consideration such cf these propositions as may be of general interest or utility, having a reference to the principal object cf the Congress. Art 6. Of the Public Sittingslihe general and public sittings will be held in the large Gothic hail of the Hotel de Vile at Brussels ; they will open on the 221, 23d, and 24th of September, 1856, each day at 1 o'clock -in the afternoon precisely, and terminate at 5 o'clock. The managing committee may appoint one or two evening sittings. They will he conducted according to the rules of deliberative assenaldi , -8 of the country. Speeches may be delivered in all hieguages. Speakers are requested to give, in writing, a copy, or at least a summary of their speeches in case they mlionld not-be able to be reported. Art. 7. Maraging Cemmittee—The enanagiug com mittee will be composed of a president, and 24 vice-pre siderite, of whom at least one will be selected from each nation, represented at the Congress, and of eight secr - • taries, including the four.secretariea of the committees. The secretaries will arrange amongst themselves the ne cessary business to he attended to. The managing com mittee will fulfil the functions usual in deliberative assem- blies. Art. 8. Committee for Kliting and Publication.—The managing committee will app , int a special committee of seven of its members, charged with everything relating to publications by the Crmgre• - : . s. Art. 9. Finance.—A finance committee composed of seven members, chosen from the principal nations repre sentod at the Congress, will be appointed at the prep'''. ratory meeting of the 214 September, and will at once 4ssutne its functions. This committee will consult as to ways and means of providing for the expenses of the Cor.gres , , and for producing from it practical results. Art. 10. General Airai.gements.—All propositions which the several CeMmittecl .thall think it right to make within the limits tract 1 for the resent Congress will he submitted to the geuertl assembly, and decided upon in public sitting ; such propositions as go outside the progrpmme of the present meeting will ho reftrred to a suboequent assembly. of which the time and place will b e app iLted by the Corigres3. SERIOUS COLLISION IN THE CHANNEL. LIVERPOOL, MONDAY. We regret to announce the total loss, by collision, of the fine iron ship Imogene, Captain Williams, from this port for Pernambuco, which was run into yester day morning by the screw-eteamer Falcon, bound from Cork to Liverpool. The steamer struck the Imogene on the port bow, and cut her down to the water's edge. The fore compartment of the Imogene was im mediately filled with water, and bad the vessel not been fitted with water-tight compartments she must have sunk instantly, with all on board. The steamer did not stop her engines for some time after the col lision took place. As the steamer left the Imogene, the captain of the latter vessel hailed her, and requested her to lay by him, as he thought his vessel was sinking ; this the steamer did for two home?, by which time it was -evident, in spite of the utmost exertions of Captain Williams and his crew, that the Imogene was fast sinking, and having, at this time, the main compartment also nearly full of water, they were obliged to abandon her in their own boats and take refuge on board the steamer, which they had scarcely done when the Imogene went down head foremost. This vessel had a most valuable cargo on board, estimated to be worth not less than 60,0001., and was commanded by a man of great experience and judgment. She was nearly new, having been built by Messrs. Cate and Co., of this port, about eighteen months since, for Met-ers. C. T. Bowring and Co., by whom she was owned. A passenger on board the Falcon has furnished us with the following additional particulars : "At three o'clock on Sunday morning a fearful con% eien took place close to the Bargy Lights, between the Imeg.me, of this port, Williams, maste', bound for Per nammica in the Braz'ls, with a most valuable general cargo, and the steam- hip Falcon, Hynes, master, on her passage from C..,rk to Liverpool. Up to the very too inent of the collision the passage o the steamer was all that c .uid be (leek: d, tie sea heieg unusually calm, with but a very slight breeze blowing. At the hour ince tioned she was eteamieg away gallantly, under full can wee, at the rate of about eight knots per hour, when, all el . a sudden, a terrific crash was heard, followed by a simultaticouA and heartrending s!-.riek from the emigrants on board (about 80), who tried out, 'The steamer is blowing up,' and ruslici about her denies in wild cook,. sioo. The steamer struck the Imogene on the bow, inakmg a hole of such nia . ;nitude that her forecastle was speedily filled with water ; the steamer had halt her side al:en away, but being uuiejured in bottom or machinery. The Imogene had been railing on the windward tack, and displayed three large lights in her ri,;ging. The A etiner had also lights on board. The moon was shining brightly at the time, and scarcely a wavelet was to be observed on the occasion. The loss of the unfortunate Imogene was soon ascertained to be inevitable, and Capt. Williams signalled the Falcon to come to her relief.. The small boats of the steamer were immediately launched and put off to the rescue of the crew of the Imogene, which was now fast settling by the head. They succeeded in about an hour in lodging every one of the crew on board the steamer. Capt. Williams was the last man to leave hie ship, which he had scarcely done when she sank. Not a particle of the cargo, which was valued at 60,0001., was saved. There were two ladies passengers on board the Imogene, one of whom lost 2,0001., and the other 7001.
