We have had canards in abundance of.,late to there can be no necessity for making imple provi teach us caution, and nowhere do the adepts in sion for future contingencies by hoarding or keep the manufacture of this article flourish in greater ing locked up in his strong box the money which luxuriance than in the United States. Consider- ;in the hands of the different banks would be avail ing the time that must necessarily elapse before the results of the polling in the various States could be totalised, and the result conveyed to this country, the announcement seems somewhat pre mature, and there remains reasonable ground of hope that a denouement, which all Englishmen worthy of the name have long deprecated, has not come off, but that a choice worthier of our transatlantic cousins has been made. Should the election have actually fallen on Mr. BUCHANAN, it is not we, but they, who will have reason to be ashamed, while both countries will have cause to look with apprehension to the future. By the election of Colonel FREMONT a pledge would have been given for the moral resurrection and the unbroken prosperity of the United States. By the election of Mr. BUCHANAN the future is enveloped in gloom ; and whether his career will be marked by internal retrogression and external piracy and conflict, must for many months be matter of doubt. We may be pardoned under all the circumstances if, in a casein which so momentous an issue is at stake, and in which so many sacri fices have been made, we are reluctant to believe the worst. The election of Mr. BUAHANAN were so painful, so discreditable a result of the great American struggle, that doubt on our part as to its truth is but homage in disguise to the might of enlightened opinion and political virtue across the Atlantic. It becomes us, however, to look at such an event as a probable evil, and while con templating its dimensions, and the mode in which it is likely to affect us, sound the note of prepara tion, so that, "come whatc ome may," this c..untry shall be found in an attitude at the very least to command respect. Whoever is elected Great Britain has duties towards herself and her allies to discharge, and it behoves her to make special provision where the discharge of those duties seems likely to be attended with risk. It is by affronting danger, and not by cowering before it, that the continuance of peace is in such able for general use, and, judiciously circulated throughout the country, would completely remove any commercial panic, the teterrima causa mall. We see that this effect has been equally pro duced before, as well as since, the resumption of cash payments under the Act of 1819, and even more decidedly so since the fatal measure of 1844. An increased issue of paper brought back to the Bank the bullion, that had been withdraten under more stringent regulations. The efficacy of a prin ciple diametrically opposed to that of the Bank Charter Act is thus clearly established, and yet, with a perverse obstinacy that would be Ina- crous but for the fearful amount of suffering and privation thereby occasioned, our rulers cling to the enactments that have produced such wide• spreak misery and destitution, and the people, Insensible to the (muses that have brought so many families to poverty, remain indifferent and apa• thetic with respect to the all-important question. We shall adduce a few cases which, as we conceive, fully establish the accuracy of the above assertion—viz., that every former commercial crisis has been arrested or alleviated by an en larged issue of bank notes. Exactly what the existing monetary code expressly prohibits, giving in lieu thereof a most unwise and ruinous con traction of the circulating medium, at the critical moment when a totally opposite course is impera tively required, and we shall in each case adduce authorities which cannot be controverted or im- peached by the most enthusiastic builionist. The first epoch to which we think it useful to refer is that of 1793, on the breaking out of the war with France, and we learn from the report cases to be insured. Should the election of Mr. BucnANAN prove a fact, the slaveholding power has achieved a great victory, which there can be little doubt it will push to the utmost. The struggle has justly been regarded by it as one of life or death, and its worst passions and most unscrupulous prac tices have been brought into exercise. Much allowance must, doubtless, be made for the heat of conflict—the fact * however, remains—the struggle was to the Southern.ers of vital importance, involving no less than the fate of slavery ; and if they have succeeded, it is only by the most desperate exertions. To look, there fore, for any generous forbearance on their part would be simply idiotic. They cannot afford it. Nothing but the danger of carrying their victory too far for their own purposes is likely to deter them from requiring more than is compatible with any pretence of Northern freedom. The fate of Kansas is already sealld, and the retention of Cuba has become matter of immediate concern to the Court of Spain. Those who may be disposed to look for any decided steps being taken by the. North to ignore the election of BUCHANAN will be disappointed. Possibly the majority in his favour may not turn out so great as the law requires, and another candidate may ultimately be elected. We do not count much on this chance—if elected —we imagine the majority in is favour will be found sufficient. The prospect, however, is by no means entirely gloomy. Mr. "RUCH &NAN is neither a fool nor a political fanatic, and has a reputation to win. Hitherto he has shown him self possessed of a certain amount of sagacity, it not of scrupulosity. It is by no means improb able that what he won by exceptionable arts, he may wear with some degree of credit. Nothing could be more full of promise than the advent of PIERCE ; nothing more full of falsifica tions than his career. The reverse of this may with so much warrant be predicated of BUCHANAN. The lion may -go out a lamb. History is not without such precedents. Be this as it may, in BUCHANAN himself is the best reliance in America for thefuture. He is toopractised and too expedient a politician to go the whole hog with the Southerners, if by doing so the danger of a rising in the North would be imminent ; and we cannot think that they who have declaimed so loudly before his election will be mute and motionless, do what he may afterwards. After all, the slaveholders may be doomed to consider able disappointment. were : As we write, the announcement of Mr. BUCHA NAN'S election has been confirmed. We do not the less believe the first was a guess—as it turns out, a lucky one. We have therefore to deal with a certain, instead of a probable event in con templating what may be that gentleman's foreign policy. With respect to it, our hope is in the attitude of this country. It is well known Mr. BUCHANAN was the chief spirit at the Ostend Conference, where doctrines at utter variance with international right were agreed to. It is also believed that Lord CLARENDON'S endeavours to promote a good understanding between this coun , try and the United States, on more than one im portant occasion, were baffled by the same agency. It is hardly likely that one who sets. his sail so readily to the wind will hesitate long to push on, or leave untouched, the acquisition of Cuba, as either course may be deemed likely to be attended with popularity, and the presump tion is the temptation will be towards the for mer. In that case, as in others of a like aggressive character, a conflict may be anticipated with more than one European Power, and espe cially with us. If, however, we are prepared and show a bold front, JONATHAN will think twice about it, and may be found lowering his tone, and foregoing the coveted possession at last. The United States have got a slippery President, " that's a fact "—consequently it is not very pro fitable speculating further. We must make the best of it, and we can only do so by making such naval preparation as the honour and dignity of this country seem to call for. distress ha ve There i s no t a s i ng l e i ns t ance w ithi n th e me mory of man in which commercial difficulty and Notes, at the time when not been greatly alleviated, if not altogether removed, w b h y e n a n th e e nl s a p rg e e ci d e issue b o a f en ßank Notes, at the time when the specie had bsn Un duly reduced, either f rom th e e ff ec t s o f l arge foreign impo r t at i ons, loans to, or investments in, other countrie s , or any considerable outlay ex , ceedinz the national income.

E xperi _ duce- teaches us beyond the possibility o f di4pu te that all that is required is to satisfy the people that any man of unquestionable solvency - can obtain, on sufficient security, the amount of paper currency which he requires fir the tramaction of his ordinary business, and that Directors, by affording a more plentiful circulation, removed the cause, and with it the grievance. There was then the transient prosperity Of 1817- 18, which was, however, brought to a speedy termination by the Act of 1819—the operation whereof soon renewed the calamities of 1816, and brought the people of this country to a state almost of insurrection. We have thus traced the causes of the various commercial crises that happened previous to the abolition' of inconvertible bank paper. We must defer to another opportunity a similar investiga tion of the various emergencies that have arisen since the introduction of that unwise and impo litic measure. They will all be found, on cairn investigation, to have proceeded from similar causes, and to have been cured by the like means. No matter what might have have been the state of our trade and commerce, whether there was undue speculation or not, dis tress was occasioned by the undue contraction, and removed by the judicious expansion of the Bank circulation, and yet that wise and politic course was prohibited by the Act of 1814, which completely took away the discretion, previously examined by the Directors, and rendered the remedy the same, no matter what might be the cause of the mischief. " The self-acting regula tor of the currency," as it has been termed by its admirers, has proved a decided and unequi vocal failure. It has been weighed in the balance, and found wanting. And now that money has advanced to the famine price of 7 per cent. at the Bank itself—or 10 or 12 per cent. to those who have not discount accounts with the Bank, it is time that the People should be awakened to the magnitude of the emergency, and bring the pres sure from without to bear on Parliament, which can alone produce an adequate remedy. We cannot conclude without inviting attention to a communication, signed C. W. S., "an Eng lish merchant, likely to be ruined by the scarcity of gold." It will be found well worthy of perusal, and if we would avoid the consequences which he so graphically describes, we must, while there is yet time, endeavour to help ourselves. We pro mise our correspondent that we shall not relax our exertions. We only hope that they may excite corresponding efforts on the part of the People, who are so greatly interested in the satisfactory solution of the all-important problem. of the celebrated Bullion Committee of 1810 that "In the year 1793 distress was occa sioned by the failure of confidence in the country circulation, and a consequent pressure on that of London. The Bank of England did not think it advisable to enlarge their issues to meet this in creased demand, and their notes, previously issued, circulating less freely in consequence of the alarm that prevailed, proved inefficient for the necessary payment. In this crisis Parliament applied a remedy, very similar in its effect to an enlargement in the advances and issues of the B ink. A loan of Exchequer Bills was authorised to be made to as many mercantile persons, giving good security, as should apply for them ; and the confidence which this measure diffused, as well as the increased means which it afforded of obtaining Bank notes, through the sale of Ex chequer Bills, speedily relieved the distress, both in London and the country ! " Here, then, we find that which the Com mittee considered " very similar in its effect to in enlargement in the issues and advances of the sank," followed by instant relief, and the emer 4ency overcome, by a j udicious supply of that which was alone required by the trading popula tion—viz., an adequate supply of the recognised measure and representative of value. Again, in 1797, we learn, on the same autho rity, that " an alarm of invasion, a run upon the eountry banks for gold, the failure of some of them, and a run upon the Bank of England, pro produced a crisis like that of 1793, for which, oerhaps, an, effectual remedy might have been pro vided, if the Bank of England had had the courage to 04end, instead of restricting, its accommodations and issues of notes. - Few persons, it appears from the Reports of the . Secret Committee of the Lords, were of this opinion at the time, and the late Governor and Deputy-Governor of the bank stated to your Coratnittee that they and many of the Directors are now satisfied, from the experi ence of the year 1797, that the diminution of their notes in that emergency increased the public distress, an opinion in the correctness of whir h your Committee entirely concur." Here was the cause of the evil graphically explained! But how was it removed ? Simply by the order in Cm neil which superseded cash payments, or, in other word s, rendered the Bank paper inconvertible. One pound notes were issued in abundance, which answered all domestic purposes. The consequences were immediately apparent. Credit was restored, industry reanima ted, and the nation was enabled to meet all the expenses of the war, which, ac cording to the evidence of Lord ASH BURTON, be fore the Committee on Agriculture in 1836, must otherwise have been brought to a premature con clusion. The ipsii slam verba of hi 9 Lordship ." But in truth the war must have come to an end ; you would have been forced to peace in 1797 but for that measure." Next came the crisis of 1810, which led to the Cormation of Mr. HORNER'S Committee. This was occasion ed by the great demand for the precious metals, produced by the subsidies we were paying to German friends, and the vast expenses of our own armaments. But we weathered the storm by the judicious liberality of the Bank of Eng land, which inc reased its discounts, to the pre viously unprecedented sum of twenty millions—an addition of four and a half millions to the accom modation afforded during the preceding year— end by a simultaneously increased issue of Bank notes, which, for the Bank itself, reached twenty.. one millions—An amount more than doubled, when the provincial circulation was taken into account. That paper currency reached the enormous amount of forty-eight millions sterling ; and by that means, and that alone, we were enabled to carry on the war and bring it to a triumphant termina tion, and to raise sums, between loans and taxa tion, to which the heaviest expenditure during the late contest was a mere bagatelle. Notwith standing all that enormous outlay the nation was prosperous. There was ample employment, at remunerative rates, for every man able and will ing to work, and the industrious population of the country were certain of that great desideratum —" a fair day's wages for a fair da y's work." Such were the events during the war, when the burdens of the nation far exceeded anything before or since exacted from the pockets of the people. The Income and Property Tax was no less than 10 per cent., and extended to all incomes of GO/. and upwards, and many imposts were then in operation which have aince been either completely abolished or greatly - mitigated. And yet the people bore all pati'ant'Ly, and enjoyed comforts almost unknown to their children, and simply because there was a, circulating medium adequate to the wants and exigencies of the country, and the industrial population " had a sufficient sup. ply of straw for the bricks they were compelled to produce." But thethe eAs ation of hostilities, in place of add- gto 'rational prosperity, p ro d uce d a nother monetary Taxation was reduced, but still the deepest, commercial and agricultural distress was occasrioned. Working men were thrown out of employment—the national industry was para lysed— -reasonable wages could no longer be ob taineik—the very means of subsistence were want ing, and many families that had previously en joyed comparative comfort were enduring an artificial famine in the midst of plenty. And why ? Because the Bank contracted its janues with a view to the early resumption of sash Pinner-Its, and the evil was not arrested until the The Russian war has been of untold and un utterable value to England. Not the conferences, not the peace, but the war. We do not mean that it has compelled army reform or navy reform; that it has obliged obstinate old fogies to adopt reasonable clothing and Minie rifles, screws, and gun• boats ; the war has saved the nation from sinking into the arms of commerce, and aroused it to deeds of suffering and daring. It gave the country other and nobler work than cottenspin fling and sharebroking, and interested it in the rights of nations more than in 3 per Cents, at par. Not that we despise or decry the loom, the forge, or the plough, HEITEN forbid ! They are noble implements rightly used, and one day, not for us to witness, they are to supplant the sword and the spear. But the manufacturer, and the artisan, and the agriculturist, confined in thought to their own pursuits, become mere sons of toil, and on .f the soil. Whatever awakens generous and expansive interest in things beyond our little circle, so far ennobles and elevates our minds. In this sense the war has raised our country. Allowing that mere malice against innocent Rus sians, and pleasure in their destruction, wer• in deed unworthy—we should say that fact showed it was also ou-13nglish. Througliuut all the War the people generally heard with sorrow of the death of thousands of the CZIR'S helpless sheep, while they rejoiced in the diminution of the CZAR'S instruments of aggression. The sends of Hango (who have never yet received their due) could but be execrated, yet all justice was done to a MOURATIEPF and a TODTLEBEN. The whole nation burned with a noble indignation against itself for having sold Hungary and Italy to Mr. COBDEN and Lord J. RUSSELL in 1848. In every workshop, every farm, and in most country houses in the kingdom, the feeling was that we had borne too long. Poland, Hungary, Italy, had all been crushed by foreign intervention, mad the agents of our Court bad only said " the English I people do not like it." I ', But the insatiate Moloch of the Russians had at length gone too far. Even Courts were uneasy when Constantinople was likely to become the capital of all the Russias, and to convert its de pendent provinces into a fourth or fifth Russia. The very Ceburgs were annoyed at the thought of Aui tria beingso surroundedby her Great Northern Pa tron; England saw her opportunity; she determined that the Ministers should no longer say "England does not like , it," but "England will not have it." Looking back upon the general sentiments when ever and however expressed—Death to despot oppression was the universal feeling. The whole nation, we believe, would gladly have spent an other hundred millions to complete its work. The rights of Poland were nowhere asserted without eliciting enthusiastic cheers. The Circassians, and the Fins, and the Swedes, too, all had a deep share in the general sympathy. Anything to free them all ; a bold stroke and a rectification of the map of Europe, Russia-wards at least, was what all desired. And these were ennobling sen timents. They made the farmer something more than a farmer, the weaver something more than a weaver. They enrolled those who held them with those who bled at Thermopylae and Chago nea ; with the WALLACE; and HA.MPDENS, and CROMWELLS of Britain. They all knew that war took something, took much, from their fireside comforts, or from their incomes ; but they would have spared double to see the CZAR, brought to his knees, Prussia reduced to Russia, the down. trodden raised up, the bound freemen emancipated, and the thrones of all despots shaken. True, these noble feelings have been unworthily disappointed ; but they have been aroused, and they are still as strong as ever. The ABERDEEN Cabinet sold the grandest opportunity ever offered to a Government of preventing a war by threaten ing the aggressor 'with the wrath of the English People—of at once maintaining pease, and raising their nation in the eyes of all Europe. Had that timid Minist r y b u t a ppealed early to the country , such a response would have been given as would have made the heart of a NIOROLAS quail ; for the nation had lain almost crouching fur a spring at the CZAR ever since the brutalities of 1833 and 1849. Again, when the soul of tho country was in the great obj?ct, the people once more saw in the For e i gn-office themselves sacrificed to that odious hypocrite Austria ; gold have been when he might G.oeffirmeeanayt, ;,uacrlisp,erghaaipnsedßuassrieapnrieve for the enemy of Europe, just Convention of Cintra, while our armies and fleets held Russia at our mercy, even this has not prostrated for a century. This second changed the sentiments of Englishmen, or de prived them of hope. The addresses of KOSSUTH at Manchester, and Mr. : 'ROEBUCK at Sheffield, are • a proof of this% Every representation of the duty L and , right of England to lay its injunction on the ) restlessness of despotism, and to prohibit its in- tervention for the tottering despots of the mal treated nations, was cordially cheered. Non-in tervention was not objected to if the hoary oppres sors were bound to observo it also. But with Russia in Warsaw, Austria in Milan, and oven in Parma. and Ancona, and France in Rome, the cant of non-intervention is perceived to be the mere cuckoo cry of forbearance with despots. Surely England has as much right at Syracuse as France at Rome ; and order is no less wanted at Naples than in the Papal States. The people of Manchester and Sheffield are eager enough for non-intervention, but they de mand that the principle shall be enforced on all. We think nothing would tend so much to bring France and Austria, rather FRANCIS JOSEPH and Louis NAPOLEON, to their senses, as for England to act in Sicily the part which France and Austria are acting in Continental Italy. We owe it, as we are sorrow fully aware, to Sicily, but we owe it to the cause of non-intervention. If the despots found that England would intervene as much in the cause of liberty as they do in that of oppression, we should soon hear no more of intervention. BOMEA. and the Porn, and the young tyrant of Vienna, would be left to square it with their subjects as they best might, and. interventions of this kind on ous. part, which none could complain of or resist, would thus be the surest guarantee of the nations getting their rights. EFFECTS OF THE SCARCITY OF GOLD, TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. am an English ni-rchant likely to - be ruined by the scarcity of gold. Yes, sir, likely to be ruined by the disgraceful way with which those wh ) are selected to watch over the interests of the community allow them selves to become the tools of the bankers and money lenders. Of course the circulating medium of the coun try should be increased with the increase of trade. The want,s of a nation are precisely the wants of an individual, As our customer increases his business he necessarily requires more credit and always obtains it. It is perfectly legitimate that as the trade of the country is developed there should be a simul taneous addition to the circulating medium, and 'if the precious metals cannot be obtained, then bank notes, which are the best substitute, should take their plane. If gold and silver are wanted at any price by the continent, and we find ourselves being drained of all we possess, we should instaotly issue bank notes for domestic purposes. Are the mills of England—those gigantic sources of employment to the people—to close ? Are thousands of families to starve I Are the mighty throes of commerce, which are spreading life and civili sation over the world, and reflecting grandeur to Eng land, to be bound and fettered by such a trumpery cause as an absence of circulating medium ? Am I to sit down famished with hunger before a roasted capon, and allo myself to starve becauie I cannot borrow a knife and fork, except at an exorbitant price, to carve it en regle ? This is too ridiculous, and it is wonderful that the in telligent members of the mercantile community should allow themselves to be inconvenienced in this way by a few selfish capitalists. The trading class have not forgotten how the bill to limit the liability of a partner to the amount of capital actually in►ested in the concern was emasculated in the House of Lords by Lord Overstone and the noble money lenders to suit their own purposes, at the ex pense of the industrious young men and of the smaller capitalists. The alteration referred to has had the effect that was expected—it has started a number of bubble companies in England, and as p )werless to pre• vent the large investments of English capital in foreign railroads, which, I believe, if not checked, will at the first appearance of general revolution, which is hourly expected, be a terrible loss, not only to the holders of shares, but to the nation at large. In 1847 the loss of one Englishman was a gain to another, but a panic on the continent will be like the 70,000/. lost by Messrs. Fox, Henderson, and Co. by a Danish Railway—a dead loss to this country. In conclusion, sir, I hope you will persevere in urging the immediate necessity of wan in creased paper currency, and an alteration as soon as possible in the Law of Partnership.—Yours, &c., C. W. S. LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANIES. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Ctirwen-street, Workington, 16th Nov,, 1856.

THOMPSON, Solicitor to the Harrington and Shipbuilding and Ropemaling Company. DRURY-LANE THEATRE. On Saturday night the opera of "Don Giovanni" was played to a house crammed to the ceiling, and the opera fully merited the audience. Signor Lorini ac quitted himself so well that, but for the .recollec tion of the prince of tenors, no one would have thought a better Ottavio essential to complete success. The opera was beautifully put upon the stage, in every respect, no expense having been spared, either in dresses or scenery. Grisi was the Donna Anna, and almost surpassed herself. Madame Rudersdorff's Donna Elvira is one of the best, if not the best, we have seen. Herr Fot saes acted with his nHual scrupulous care, and sang as few can sing the mole of Mozart. Madame Gas sier's Zerlina is a complete success, and, if M. Gassier is far behind the unequalled Tamburini in his Don Giovanni, he ' at least, one of the very best Dons now to be found nn the Italian stage. The clioroue was excellent through out, and the orchestra all that could be desired. " Don Giovanni" is to be repeated next Thursday, previous to whicb,that is, on Monday, and Tuesday, the "Trovatore" will be presented, with Grisi as Leonora, and Signor Graziani as the Count di Luna, for which he comes ex pressly from Paris. In fact, the lessee evinces every de• terminal ion to leave nothing wanting that can tend to the completeness of these operatic representations:, It is announced, also, that Meyerbeer's opera of the Hu guenots " is in rehearsal, and that the splendid lyric drama of "Le Prophets" is to be given shortly on a scale of unequalled grandeur, for which all the ample resources of this theatre will be employed. THE Mill , RECORDER OF LONDON. The Hon. S. Wortley having accepted the office of Solicitor-General, the Recordership of the City of Lon don becomes vacant as a matter of course. The hon. and learned gentleman will in a few days officially no• tify his resignation to the city authorities, and there is every reason to believe that Mr. Bodkin, the well-known criminal practitioner, will be his successor. Such an appointment will no doubt give universal satisfaction to the bar and the public. Queen Christina of Spain has arrived at Marseilles. There were rumours in Paris on Saturday of a Minis terial crisis at Naples. Gonzales Bravo is definitively appointed Spanish Am bassador to London; On Saturday night the barque Lee, lying in St. George's-dock, Liverpool, was nearly destroyed by fire. A convict, named Butler, effected his escape on Friday afternoon last from Portsmouth Dockyard. Colonel Crabbe was on Friday last elected chief con stable of the West Riding of Yorkshire. The retail dealers of tobacco this morning increased the prices a halfpenny the ounce. The Christmas Cattle Show will take place at the Baker-street Bazaar this year on the 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th December. The Hull Packet says that some expectation is enter tained that the Rev. Dr. Whiteside, of Scarbro, will be elevated to the see of Ripon. The specie by the West India steamer La Plata yest( r • day is 156,5007., of which 108,0007. is gold. The Alham bra, from Lisbon, has brought 8,8221. The Portuguese financial agent in London has issued a fresh notice, detailing the progress of the conversior. The total amount converted up to the 30th of June last was 6,320,8917., and since that date 2,519,519/. DEATH OF ADMIRAL FREDERICK WATKINS.—We regret to announce the death of the above venerable admi ral, the oldest admiral in the navy, his commission as lieutenant bearing date as far back as November, 1790.

THE Loss OP TAB ROYAL MAIL STEAMSHIP TAY. The report of Mr. Train, the Greenwich Police-court magistrate, who was recently appointed to inquire iiito the loss of tha royal mail steamship Tay, near Cape Roxo, in the Gulf of Mexico, was presented to the Lords' Committee of the Privy Council for Trade on Saturday. It sta'es that the loss of the ship is to be attributed to as extraordinary current which retarded her progress after her departure from Vera Cruz, and was not within the meaning of the act of Parliament, caused by the wrongful act or default of Cip:ain Strutt, and that the conduc - , of Captain Strutt at, and subsequent t the time of the wreck, both in the attempts he made to get the ship off, and the means he used for the safety of the passengers, orew, ak vas, was marked by judgment, skill, and self-pOSsee 0!?: LATEST NC WS. THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. We learn from the agent of the New York As sociated Press, at Liverpool, that Mr. Buchanan has been elected President of the United States.— Times, We(Times) have received th© following confirma- tion of the election of Mr. Buchanan to the Pre sidency of the United States from our own corres- pondent : BOSTON, Nov. 5. Buchanan is returned. He has obtained 174 votes in the Electora College. Fremont, 114. Fillmore, 8. CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 6. The Porte is preparing to fortify Giurgevo. A camp of 25,000 men will afterwards be esta blished in the environs. The Correspondence Prussienne of the 16th inst. publishes an Article directed against the Swiss press, in which it gives ground for believing that Prussia will exercise her direct authority over the Canton of Neuchatel, and that the Government of Berlin will exact a recognition of its sove reignty. A letter from Frankfort, in the Debats of Sa ,urday, says it is confidently rumoured that Aus ,ria is about to contract a new loan abroad—the capital to be large, and the conditions offered to subscribers to be " most advantageous." FRANCE. PARIS, SUNDAY EVENING. Faithful to its traditions the Assemblee Nationale favours its readers with another violent polemical article on English rapacity and general misbehavi our. The article is headed, "Let us be the ally but not the tool of England," and, to give more force and appearance of truth to what follows, commences with a formal denial of any desire to disparage British institutions, or of being possessed of any feeling of jealousy or party spirit. Sentiments of sincere admiration are professed for our country, for its greatness, for the genius which for nearly two centuries has presided over its destinies, for its power, patriotism, and political intelligence. But unfortunately we turn all these to the realising of one fixed idea, and that is nothing short of the domiiation of the entire globe. The Assembles asserts that— " There does not exist an Englishman who is not firmly convinced that his country is destined to go vern the whole world. In the midst of all our political changes, of all the double-shuflies and wea thercock twists of our home policy, let but the Foreign-office give the word, and every person, from one end of the British empire to the other is suddenly found precisely of the same mind with regard to what should be done abroad. . . . Never in any opera have the scenes been more suddenly shifted than has British policy—to-day Liberal, to-morrow Absolutist — now taking the part of nationalities, and now ready to oppress them—in turn encouraging and interdicting religions propagandism—humble towards the strong, and insolent towards the weak—the ally of all Powers and all rebellions, according to the interest of the year, the day, and of the hour even. Still, whether just or unjust, right or wrong, the acts of the Government as respects foreign nations find a united phalanx to sup port them. One might imagine that England had bor rowed from the two great rivals of antiquity their dis tinctive characteristics. Carthage has bequeathed her Punic faith, and the oracle written by Virgil on the cradle of the people's King has been taken for her motto : " ' 'fa regero imperio populos Romano memento. " It is this desire, thiß thirst of dominion and univer -9.1 Preponderance which are the causes of the feeling of union which exists between tale pilvpla tho mint of England; and, a though there is much in Ea;- history which merits eternal condemnation, we can not help admiring this harmony which is thus able to resist all the chances and changes of political life. In deed we not oily admire it—we would wish to inoculate Fra❑ce with it." AMERICA. LIVERPOOL, Nov. 1. The royal mail steamship Arabia, Stone, com mander, arrived here at midnight from Boston and Halifax, with dates from New York to the 4th inst., 64 pazsengers, and $758,936 in specie on freight. The Royal 111411 steamship Asia, hence, and the mail steamship Edinburgh, from Glasgow, arrived at Now York on the 31st ult.; and , he screw steam ship Vigo, from Havre, on the 3d inst. The result of the Presidential election had not been officially declared. The returns from the in terior of New York State showed large Republican gains in almost all the counties, but it was ques tioned whether they were sufficient to overcome the Democratic majority. The Tribune estimates the Fremont majority at 25,000, and that of King (Republican) for Governor at 15,000. Fcr Con gress the city is said to have gone Democratic. From Pennsylvania the returns favour Buchanan, as do those of New Jersey, which has gone strongly in his favour. ISewall, Republican, had been elected Governor. Tirginia had given a Demo cratic gain over last year of 157. The returns from Delaware showed a Democratic majority. From Connecticut the returns were favourable to Fre mont, as were those from New Hampshire. Maine and Rhode Island had gone strongly in favour of Fremont. From Vermont the returns wore gene rally in favour of Fremont.

In the Council of Ministers to-day extraordinary credits for divers services have been granted to the Mi nister of Finances. The Madrid journals of the 11th state that the Archbishop of Toledo had ordered prayers to be offered up in all the churches of his diocese for the cessation of drought. The Epoca says that the Government was about to order the construction of two ships of the line, three frigates, and three corvettes on the screw principle. The Epoca says that the salary of members of the Royal Council is to be 60,000 reads. It is now said that M. Pacheco has sent in his resignation as Ambassador at London, and that it has been accepted. The intelligence from Madrid is not cheering. Espartero is completely decried, and the Glamor Publico, the oldest Progresista organ, has published l an article against him, which, under all circum stances, is positively cruel. There is no doubt that Narvaez and Pidal wish to keep up at least the ap pearance of free go vernment, but they are opposed by their colleague Nocedal (a renegade Liberal), and the Court faction. The English Ambassador is supposed by the Court to be promoting this con stitutional march, and the result is that the ultra journals are furious against him, and actually re commend that he should be sent out of the country. Herewith is a specimen of the manner in which Lord Howden is treated by an absolutist journal called La Regeneracion:— " We should like to find a patriotic explanation of the satisfaction with which some persons hear of the manoeu vres of England with the view of bringing back among us anarchy and disorder by means of a parliamentary system The patriotism which we recognise in Gen. Narvaez in spires ns with the certainty that he will know how to reject with all the indignation of his Spanish heart every foreign intrusion in what belongs to ourselves only to settle. The Duke of Valencia has not forgotten the great and impor tant act of 1848. ,Such is the line that ought to be fol lowed, and which will be followed, however distasteful it may be to bad Spaniards." The meaning of the foregoing is that Lord How den should be treated by General Narvaez as Sir Henry Bulwer was in 1848 by the same person. This, if carried into effect, would make three expul sions within eight years. Civis Romanue sum might with advantage be proposed as a subject for an essay in the next competitive examination. EGYPT. ALEXANDRIA, Nov. s.—The transit trade through Egypt, with an apparent tendency to greater deve lopment, has already attained proportions which at one time were looked upon as highly improbable. The cargo in transit to and fro by the last mail, although rather under the average, amounts to 4,150 packages and 2,054 cases, containing about 557,0001. in specie ; and, when it is considered that camels as yet constitute the only means of transport for heavy goods across the desert bet ween Cairo any Suez, but little room is left for surprise at the de tention of the steamers almost invariably amounting to the full time allowed by the mail contracts. W e may, however, soon look for improvement in this respect, as the Viceroy appears determined to urga the speedy completion of the Cairo and Suez Rail way. He has signifie d his intention of having half the line from Cairo completed and opened for traffic in January next, when, therefore, passen gers may hope to bo conveyed by rail across that portion of the Desert. In order to avoid inter veiling high ground, the lino passe:; to the north of the existing road, but a short temporary branch will connect it with the half-way house long k nown to overland travellers as the " cen tre station," whence the remaining portion of the journey will still have to be performed in vans until he sp the entire line of railway he com ted. Teedy realisation of this eve nt will be looked upon as highly desirable, not only by those directly concerned in every improvement tending to facilitate or shorten communication be tween Great Britain and her Indian empire, but also by all who feel an interest in viewing the on ward progress of this country towards the attain ment of the arta and civilisation of the 'West, for although the mere commercial advantages accruing t o Egypt from the transit trade are, perhaps, fre quently overrated, still when the numerous collate ral benefits it confers are taken into consideration there can be none to question the high importance of promoting and encouraging it by every possible means.
