Tne fine weather had passed away, heavy showers of rain had fallen in the Eas tern States, and in the regions farther west there had been some very cold days and a great quantity of snow. In all probability the campaign of 1893 had come to an end in Tennessee as well as in Vir ginia. The month of October had been spoken of as likely to witness some remarkable events in the grand contest of the Federal army at Chattanooga with the forces of Gen. Bragg, but nothing of im portanca has taken place, although the expectation of some great passage of arms still prevails. Whe ther anything will be attempted will depend on the state of the weather, and judging with the expe rience of the past two years to guide us, we may say that it is most likely the two armies will remain nearly as they are until the return of spring. In deed, this is almost the best that can be anticipated by the Federals. Troops are being hurried up by Gen. Grant, not to proceed with the invasion of Georgia, but to defend the Federal communications. It is success for them to hold their earthworks at Chattanooga, to prevent the Confederate cavalry pouncing on their trains and reducing them to ex tremities for want of supplies, The success of Hooker on .the 28th seems, if true, to be unimportant, for the Confederates still hold the west bank of Lookout Creek, and the situation of the two armies remains unchanged. If, then, Gen. Grant can do as much as Gen. Rosencranz, and maintain his position during the winter at Chattanooga, he may be con sidered as having achieved all that the Federals can hope for. President Davf speaks confidently at Mobile that he will be unable to do this. The Southern statesman declares that Grant will be beaten and driven northward out of Tennessee. Allowing for oratorical exaggeration, it may be presumed that Mr. Davis thinks the chances in the Tennessee campaign are in favour of the Confederates. We may give credence to his assertions, since they coincide sufficiently with the correspondence from the Federal camp and the general tone of the North respecting the etate of affairs. There is such a remarkable agreement that things are critical, such an absence of the usual prophecies of speedy victory, that we may be sure the danger to the Federal army is real and obvious. The best that can happen to the invaders is to be spared an ignominious and ruinous retreat. The Army of the Potomac appears to be almost forgot ten. This celebrated force, consisting of veterans hardened by three years of war, and foamed from the volunteers and conscripts of the highly civilised Eastern States, is now of smaller account than the rough levies which are operating in the Far West. Since their retreat before Gen. Lee they have been engaged in reconstructing the railway, and it is probable that they will have no more active employ ment during the winter and spring. Their num bers have fallen off in a manner most extraordinary, considering the imf ortance of the Potomac Army in the eyes of the Federal Government, the large reinforcements continually added to it, and the rigour with which desertion has been lately punished. It is probable that Gen. Meade has not now under his command more than 60,000 troops ; with these he can do no more than defend Washington against the eminent commander opposed to him. The fall in popular esteem of this portion of the Republican forces is complete. It is hardly mentioned by the American press. All the speculations and predic. tions are reserved for the armies of Grant or Banks.

Through the fractiousness of Persuasion, who broke away and ran to the stand twice before she could be stopped, the start was delayed some time. When eventually they started Persuasion took a clear lead, which she held for halt a mile, when she was headed by Gamma, who came on with a clear lead, and won by three lengths; a length between the second and third, same between the third and fourth.

Prescription made play, followed by the favourite, Telscombe, and Usher to the distance, where Buckland joined Mr. Fletton's filly, headed her at the stand, and won by half a length—two lengths between the second and third, a length between the third and fourth. The winner was bought in for 410 guineas. A Handicap Plate of 50 sovs, for 3-yr-olds and upwards. Three-quarters of a mile. Mr Watt's Birthday filly, 4 yrs, 7st Sib .... (11.

The Birthday filly cut out the work, waited upon by Con fidence, Liston, Pupil, and Bernice, and Fanfreluche and Avongrove lying up. These formed the first division to the distance, where the three placed singled themselves out, the Birthday filly (who lay next the rails on the far side) having a slight lead, which she retained to the end, and won on the post by a head ; the same distance separated the second and third ; Bernice was a bad fourth, Fanfreluche fifth, Lothians' King and Avongrove next; the last three were Pupil, Welsail, and Hopeless. . , A Sweepstakes of 5 sovs each, with 30 added, for 2-yr-olds and upwards; weight for age, with winning penalties and maiden and selling allowance.% One mile.

Damascus led for a quarter of a mile, when the lot closed up and ran together to the distance, where Jessie came out, closely followed by Highland Mary, and won very easily by two lengths ; a bad third ; the others beaten off. The win ner was bought in for 105 guineas. The Hootan Nursery Handicap of 3 sous each, with 50 added; for 2-yr- olds. Six furlongs. 25 subs. Indeed, the invasion of Virginia seems now to be given up entirely. If the South is to be conquered, the Federal armies must penetrate ito huge terri tory in some other quarter. Hence the great efforts to reinforce the Tennessee army and to give it an efficient general. It is most probable that not even next year will an attempt be again made to reach Richmond, but it is quite certain that this year nothing will be done. The weather and the soil in Virginia will now be an effectual obstacle to an advance. The only military event at a later period last year was the crushing defeat of Burnside at Fredericksburg, and the expe rience of that short campaign serves to show that not even if the Northern general had been victorious could he have made much progress at such a season. At New Orleans there are rumours of expeditions, and there are predictions of great deeds, but so there have been for months, and little progress has been made. The scheme of conquer ing Texas is more easily conceived than executed. The Federal troops can hardly hold down the coun try in the neighbourhood of the Mississippi, though its social organisation, with large properties and a great number of slaves, makes it less able to carry on a warfare of resistauce than most parts of the Southern States. But to overrun Texas, a country of vast extent and inhabited by a vigorous popula tion, will be a tar more vigorous task. It is reported that an expedition will land on the Texan coast, and be commanded by General Banks, and that it will form a junction with Franklin, who is ad vancing by Opelousa. But it can hardly be sup posed that these forces will do more, even if suc cessful, than occupy some isolated points of that vast region, leaving it practically as much in the hands of its Southern inhabitants as before. But it is also quite probable that the expedition will come to nothing. The number of troops that can be spared is not large, since even as it is the traffic on the Mississippi is at the mercy of guerillas, who fire on the passing vessels, and General Grant must be weakening the Western armies by the forces he is said to be taking to Chattanooga. Such, then, is the state of affairs at the end of 1863. We may ask what has been the result of this year's slaughter. The Federals have suffered a great defeat under Hooker, and they have saved their capital by a desperate battle under General Meade. They have taken Vicksburg and Port Hudson, in which Pre sident Davis, with a strategy which was criticised at the time, and is now generally condemned, shut up large bodies of Confederate troops. But with these successes the advantages of the Federals cease. No real progress has been made in the war; not one of the predictions of the North has been veri fied. The year began with M. Lincoln's Procla mation, and it was expected that the fear of servile rebellion would soon bring the Southern people to terms. But the act has only increased their hatred and their resolution to be free. It gave complete success to Mr. Davis's conscription, and enabled the Southern Government to place in the field larger armies than have ever before confronted the invader. At the same time, the effect on the negro popula tion has been very sm a ll at every point where Fede ral armies have not penetrated. Though the tenour of the proclamation is well understood by the coloured people. there is no disposition to desert the cause of the whites ; and, furthermore, the idea of conquering the South by means of negro troops, w hi c h was embodied in the plan of Congress for raising 300,000 blacks, has been utterly abandoned. Th e negroes, in fact, though perhaps useful for gar rison duty in places where the whit e population have been disarmed, are not fit to meet the whites in battle, and show very little enthusiasm in behalf of the Union. Thus the campaign of 1863—the year that was to crush the Confederate Government by the overwhelming force of an Emancipation policy—is coming to an end, and will leave matters almost in the same state as at the beginning. It is difficult to see that there is any nearer approach to a pcification since the time when last November brought with it the end of the last campaign. May we not then take the opportunity of an enforced pause in the conflict to urge once more th e p eace f u l ending of this dispute? We have now as a nation no interest in the war beyond that that en av d h w ic a h st a e l . l man kind The have in stopp ia g gap in our trade caused by the failure of the Ameri can demand has b een filled up ; we shall soon be dependent on the combatants neither for our material nor for the custom which makes mannfac turing profitable. w e therefore s p ea k s i mply in the interests of civilisation and humanity, and ask the North whether enough has not been done to prove that the Confederates are determined on indepen dence and strong enough to maintain it. PosT.—At the close of the last session of Parliament there were laid before its members papers connected with the bombardment of Tringana, a fort and place of residence belonging to a Rajah—nominally, tributary to Siam, but often before in direct relation with the local government of Singapore. The bo mbardment arose out of circumstances connected with the suc cession to a c hiefship, at the extreme southern end of the peninsula, which was tributary to the Malav prince from whom awetained Singapore. We had arbitrated - the dispute, andrded the petty claiefship to the elder brother. The younger, who claimed a portion of the territory, as inte nded to be given to him by his father, was dissatisfied, and attempted to assert his rightbyarms Then taking refuge in Tringana, aua'he beganto e collect Tringana fol lowers, and prepare a nother expedition. T h chief was warned to give him up, or send him away, and complaint was at the sam e ra t ime made to Siam. The nuisance, and, in of having it however, was not re°ovil'eicerd of the Singapore Government otherwise remedied, an was sent in a ship of war to Tringana to insist on immediate t i e t d , .the ship bombarded the fort, and caused it to be evac ua redress ; failing to obtain This independent action for , -on with the feudatories, and mischief is an incident e enan ' even public officers, of all the great States and empires of uod there that we have been the gut, aid it lias eft= WIPP Mr 3.

Within a few minutes of the time set down the numbers of the nine runners were exhibited on the telegraph,the last to reach the starter being Blithfield, who, as usual, exhi bited some temper, and was led down with a leading rein, from which he was no sooner released than he broke away, and ran some distance before French and the head lad could persuade him to join his horses. At the second attempt Mr. Marshall effected a capital start, in which Bal ham, next the rails on the far side, obtained a slight ad vantage, with the others lying in a cluster at his heels,with the exception of Laertes, who refused to move, and was left some distance in their rear. Passing the stand Nebula held a clear lead of Balham, whose immediate, followers were the favourite, Golden Pledge, and Fairwater, succeeded by Blithfield, Somersault, and Laertes, but on rounding the stable turn the leader ran out, which left Mr. Morris's horse with a clear lead, closely attended by Golden Pledge, Fair water, and Blithfield, at whose girths came Somersault. Catch-'em-Alive, being unable to act in the dirt, at the same time dropped into the rear, in company with Sea King and Laertes, At the mile-post the :ending horses got upon closer terms, and ran in company to the canal-bridge turn, where Balham once more assumed the command, and came along the bottom ground with a clear lead. The favourite was seen to get nearer at every stride as they approached the turn into the straight, and as they neared the distance Balham gave evidence of defeat; Fairwater at the same time took a slight lead of Golden Pledge, and the pair in a few strides further were joined by Blithfield. Between these three a slashing race ensued. At the stand Blithfield I obtained a slight advantage, which he retainod to the end, and won by a short head, Golden Pledge defeating Fair water by a like distance for second place; Somersault finished fourth, four lengths in the rear, with Sea King at his girths, Balham, whom they passed at the Stand, being next, with the favourite close up; the others were beaten off a long way.

We have just now followed this course in Japan, and the bombardment of the fort ant' place of residence of the Prince of Satsuma must be looked upon as an ordinary and necessary expedient of the policy we are compelled to observe with these Asiatic nations. It is by no means a new thing in our dealings with sovereignties contiguous to Japan. For instance, in our first quarrels with China, we acted against the Gover nor o& Canton, whose measures were the offence of which we complained, and we hoped by that means to obtain the redress we sought. We have now concluded a treaty with Japan which gives us the right of intercourse with the population, and of travel on its highways. Some of the feudal chiefs of Japan were opposed to the policy of this treaty, and they have shown a determination to prevent European foreigners from reaping benefit from it, Among these the Prince of Satsuma is the most powerful and vio lent. The Chiefs, or Daimios, move from place to place with a large retinue of armed followers; they insist upon having the roads cleared for them, and their retinue attack and ill-treat all who don't get out of the way, even though they have to take refuge in a ditch by the roadside. The Prince of Satsuma, with his retinue, encountered in this way a party of Europeans on the high road. The latter were ill-treated, and Mr. Richardson was killed; the rest, mescaped. acme This is the offence pun i shment o Englishoutrage. redress, lady,and The Government of the claim thef Tycoon, at Jeddo, which made the treaty, has shown itself ready to give a money atonement, but has betrayed, indeed a gperpetrators for whom which was a o wel has almost avowed, its utter inability to inflict any punish ment upon a Prince so powerful as the Daimio of Satsuma, or upon his followers. The Prince, in the meantime know ing that the outrage would not be allowed to pass with im punity, made separate and independent preparations for de fence and for war; he built batteries and bought steamers, cast guns and trained artillerymen, evidently taking upon himself a part hostile not only to Europeans, but to the policy of the Government with which they are in peaceful relation. Can anybody doubt for one moment that the time had arrived for seeking reparation for the offence com mitted, not from the Tycoon's Government, but from the individual offender, whose residence and prepared fortress, being on the seacoast, were within our reaeh. It was under these circumstances that the British diplomatic officers placed the affair in the hands of the naval officer in command, and he proceeded with a squadron to Kagosima. He captured and destroyed three steamers and a fleet of war junks, silenced the Prince's batteries, and destroyed his fortified residence. If the enterprise had ended here, not a word could be said against it by any one ; but, unfortunately, in carrying out this operation, the town was also set in flames, and the houses of many peaceable inhabitants were destroyed. If the houses destroyed were those only of the retainers and military establishment of the Chief, or of the two-sworded bravos that attended him on his jour neys, not a word could be said against it; for the murderers of Mr. Richardson were of this class, and that was the out rage which the squadron was sent to punish. But the town destroyed is said to be populous and of considerable size, and doubtless many peaceable citizens were ruined by the evils brought upon them by the hostile attitude and con duct of this feudal Prince. We regret this, and doubt not that the destruction of the houses of such non-belligerents was no part of the original intention ; we assume it to have been unavoidable from the position of the batteries, and close contact of the city with the Prince's residence, It would have been impossible for the naval commander to have allowed the purpose of the enterprise to be defeated, and the offending Daimio and his retinue to escape with impunity, h because they could not be reac h ed without injury to un offendingit residin g 'within th e same prec i ncts, an d therefore has been a deviation in this instance from the precedent of Odessa in the Russian war. It is not likely that our diplomatists in Japan would be blind to the expediency, on every ground of policy, of separating the peaceable inhabitants and general population of Japan from the insolent and overbearing Daimioii and feudal chiefs from whom only foreigners have received indications of ill-feeling and ill-treatment; and therefore it is that we take it for granted that they as much regret the burning of the town and shops of peaceable traders as Mr. Cobden himself, and his associates of the Peace Convention. The fact, hewever, would be justifiable, as we have heratofore maintained, even if it were intentional. But it is with.reference to the future that we should have pre ferred to se e t h e town spared, i f i t c ould have been so ; for it must be our object, in all dealings with a nation circumstanced like that of Japan, to make manifest the difference between our method of war and the indiscriminate slaughter which characterises the operations of an Asiatic army. We did this effectually, and with sin gular benefit, to the operations undertaken in our late war with China, and it is not likely that the lessons of that war will have been so soon forgotten. /e d /A STAMPED ....sd.

All accounts areein nc s w stating that the new King has succeeded in making a very favour able first impression. A lamentable accident occurred dur ing the preparations for his reception. A store of firewors at the Pirteus blew up, killing and wounding five persons. It is not known when the Commander-in-Chief will return to Malta, as Admiral Smart is awaiting orders from the Fo reign -office. The Marlborough will, in any case, shortly come down here for the purpose of giving the men leave, and she is expected before the 20th inst. Should the Coma wander-in-Chief be detained in Greece, he will probably hoist his flag temporarily on the Psyche, or the Gibraltar, 81, Captain Prevost, which arrived yesterday from Eng land, on her way to Greece. Her Majesty's corvette Pelican, 17, left the Piraeus early in the morning of the 31st ultimo, for the coast of Syria, Commander Comber having joined her, and Lieutenant Boger returned to his duty as flag-lieutenant. The Queen, 76, Captain C. F. Hillyar, sailed on the same day at 7 a.m. for Corfu, Malta, and England, and has just come in. The Trafalgar, 70, Captain T. Mason, it was reported, would await her orders from England; but the Meeanee, 89, Capt. Node house, St. George, 86, Capt. the Hon. F. Egerton, and the Orlando, 46, Capt.

Sterling, left Malta on the 31st ult. for the Pirmus, and the Ma gicienne, 16, Capt. W. Armytage, returned thence on the 3d inst. Lieut. Oliver, 22d Regiment, was a passenger on board the latter vessel, which has come down to load stores and provisions for the fleet. The Supply, 2, iron screw storeship, Master-Commander Bowden, arrived from Torbay and Gibraltar on the 2d inst., with stores for the garrison and fleet. The Hydra, 6, paddlewheel, surveying-vessel, Lieut.-Commander Wilkinson (temporary), arrived on the sth inst. from Plymouth and Gibraltar. This vessel has been specially fitted for the surveying service, and has a spacious chart-room on deck. She is very much superior both as regards speed and accommodation, to the old Medina, which she is about to replace. The Growler, tender, Staff- Commander Stokes, went out on the 4th inst. to continue the local survey in the neighbourhood of Gozo, and returned on the 7th. Her next trip will be to examine the new island reported to have been thrown up on the Chcrki Rocks, near Tunis. The following military officers have arrived during the week :—Lieut.-Col.

A day's firing at armour-plates took place yesterday at Portsmouth, under the superintendence of Captain Astley K e y, C,8., commanding her Majesty's gunnery ship Excel lent, and resulted in a most decide hd triump for the plates ove r the gun. The plates were bolted on the sides of the Monarch target ship in the ordinary manner, with 2-inch bolts, and were fired at with the 95cwt. 68 -pounder gun, at a distance of 200 yards. There were four plates, comprising one 41-inch plate from the Thames Ironworks and Shipbuilding Company for the Minotaur, one 41-inch plate from Messrs. John Brown and Co., of the Atlas Works, Sheffield, for the Ocean, and one 51-inch plate from the same firm as an ex perimental plate, being made from Arcadian charcoal iron • one 51-inch plate, and one ft-inch plate from Messrs. Ca mell and Co., of the Cyclops Works, Sheffield. Messrs, m- Tahteerlrea7llY- -- '- Brown's Arcadian iron plate received nine shots, which struck the right lower corner, and broke a Die:: off 16 inches in length by 15 inches in width. were three injured other slight cracks, but the plate was not na • except in its broken corner, and this damage was solely due to the shot striking at the extreme corner, and wh ere th e b ac ki n g also was afterwards fou n d to be deficient. Th e Brown m etal, however, with which Messrs. manufacture th e ir own plates is undoubtedly superior to the Arcadian tried yesterday, the latter being apparently too hard for the ma nufacture of armour pl a t es of the first class. The Ocean's plate, from Messrs. Brown, for a 41-inch plate, could not well, with our present knowledge of armour-plate manufacture, be surpassed. It is almost unnecessary to state that both these were rolled plates, as none others are manufactured at the Atlas Works. The Thames Company's plate for the Minotaur, hammered, was the smallest of the four, but was undoubtedly s. o f its one of sup er io r ma nufacture and metal.

Carame ll o f Sh e ffi e ld were rolled, and gained for their manufacturers a position never before surpassed by any other plates on their firs t trial as test plates. The 51-inch plate, indeed, in its left centre, re ceived six shots in a space measuring 18 inches horizontally and 2 feet 10 inches vertically. Over this space and through the indents of the shot marks there was nothing beyond three slight surface cracks. The plate received 11 shots in all. The 41-inch received eight shots, and was possibly one shade inferior in quality to the 51-inch. The metal of ii these was justt o the been shot throughb't two plates, as well as that of Messrs. Brown's 481eth,e four beautifully fibrous. At the conclusion of the trials o side ure d w 4 i tlb plates several shots were fired at a Frenchorat sahniupf,as inch plate that was bolted on to the targ Arcadian iron bolts.

Authorised Explanation of the Bible. The following important announcement appears :n the Guardian : We are hippy to see that the objections brought against certain portions of the Bible are about to be met by leading theologians of the Church of England in a very practical v,4 - 5 , . It a false and unfair system of interpretation has been applied to the text of Scripture, the best way of con fitting it is to apply a true and legitimate one. The honour of originating the plan is due to the Speaker of the House of Commons, who consulted several of the bishops on tho subject, and the Archbishop of York, at his instance, under took to organise a plan for producing a commentary which should " put the reader in full possession of whatever infor mation may be requisite to enable him to understand the Word of God, and supply him with satisfactory answers to objections resting upon misrepresentation of its contents." The plan has received the sanction of the Primate. A com mittee consisting of the Archbishop of York, the Bishops of London, Lichfield, Llandaff, Gloucester and Bristol, Lord Lyttelton, the Speaker, Mr Walpole, Drs. Jacobson and Jeremie, takes the general supervision of the work. The Rev. F. C. Cook, preacher at Lincoln's-inn, will be the general editor,and will advise with the Archbishop of York and the Regius Professor s of Divinity at Oxford and Cam bridge upon any questions which may arise. The work will be divided into eight sections, the first of which will consist of the Pentateuch, a difficult subject, and will be edited by Professor Harold Browne,the Revs. R. C. Pascoe, T. P. Thrupp, T. E. Espin, and W. Dewhurst, contribut ing. The historical books [ls the Pentateuch, then, not " historical ?"] will be consigned to the Rev. G. Rawlin , son, editor, and the Revs. T. E. Espin and Lord Arthur Hervey, contributors. The Rev. F. Cook will edit, and the Revs. E. H. Plumptre, W. T. Bullock, and T. Kings bury will annotate, the poetical books. The four Great Prophets will be undertaken by Dr. M'Caul as editor, and the Revs. R. Payne Smith and H. Rose as contributors. The Bishop of St. David's and the Rev, R. Gandell will edit the 12 Minor Prophets, and the Revs. E. Huxtable, W. Drake, and F. Meyrick will contribute. The Gospels and Acts will form the sixth section; the first three Gospels will be edited by Professor Mansel, the Gospel of St. John by the Dean of Canterbury, and the Acts by Dr. Jacobson. The editorship of St. Paul's Epistles is appropriately assigned to Bishop Ellicott and Dr. Jeremie, with Dr. Gif ford, Professor T. Evans, Rev, J. Waite, and Professor J. Lightfoot as contributors. To the Archbishop -elect of Dublin and the Master of Balliol is assigned the rest of the sacred canon, This really promises to be a work second only in importance to the LIX., or the English version made by order of King James. Perhaps it will be quoted as "the XXX," The names of the editors and contribu tors, while they ensure orthodoxy , give promise that the comment thus put forth almost with the sanction o t . the Church of England as a body will not be the utterance of any narrow school or section of it. A HOME INTERIOR.—From the charming new Novel of "Janet's Home," published by I\lacmillan. —My dear mother, not having such keen eyes as we had, nor the heart to commit such an extravagance as that of burning more than two candles, was obliged to restrict her e mployments to winding skeins of silk or cotton, rolling tape into balls, or unravelling the string and smoothing out, for future use, the paper in which parcels had been packed. How I wondered at the patience which sustained her over these tasks evening after evening. I used to sit just opposite my father, and the work - with which I was supposed to be occupying myself used to fall on my lap many times and stay there, so interested used I to be in watching him, I fancied I could trace the progress of what he was reading in his face. He sat very upright, his head slightly bent towards his book; the strong light from the lamp fell on his high, b roa d forehead, from which th e d ar k hair was much worn ; his eyebrows were usually slightl knit; the lips pressed in ; the rest of the features and figure y in perfect repose, while the restless eyes glanced rapidly and fro on the page with a sort of fierce eagerness i them, as if they would tear t h e heart out of the book. ot Sometimes f — o nce, perhaps, in an evening, or not so en—the lips relaxes' their pressure, and a slight smile curved their edges, the brows unknit, the eyes rested on a line, or were raised from the book, and I knew by the light in them that my father had read something that had pleased him. In the midst of d, y details he had come upon the record of some noble word or deed that thrilled to his heart. Sometimes I have seen him moved so far as to get up f rom hi s sca t and sou n di ng with rapid soundin steps up and down the room, his head erect, his knewmouth working, He was not with us at . t these seasons,that well enough. I had a dim idea of the ages of dist ance that separated his spirit from us and our concerns; b u t I l onged for courage to go up to him, and tell him h ow I sympathised with him, and longed to be allowed to admire what he admired, and love what he loved, The Pitmen's Strike in the North. The result of a conference between Mr. Love and a de putation of his own workmen was stated in 2he 82411 of Saturday last, and an opinion was expressed that as the members of the deputation were fully satisfied with the terms proposed the strike would in all probability imme diately cease. When the question, however, came to bo referred to the Union delegates, to whom Dlr. Love has a great aversion, and with whom he will hold no correspon dence, a further complication of matters ensued, and the. termination of the strike seems now to be as distant as ever One of the paid delegates, an Irishman named Peter Doyle, has accused the members of the deputation of having accepted a bribe from Mr. Love—the fact being that they merely partook of refreshments at his expense—and, from the warmth of language which has been used by some of the paid agitators, it is more than suspected that they have no very cordial desire to bring these unfortunate dif ferences between masters and men to a close. The masters ttumhopecoanse confiscateuot r lhl e ie , e rp t yi o t oh a aw l en l aonypwe owners, suo t , hb check t e ow p h i p t have acceded t o t h e demand to substitute weight for which a cyth e h n feios t rw o Neav h i lig i lt i h v ho e n vn a ea rns 7 6s man it gh c oh f ef, t employthe i their own upon the pit heap to check the weighman in the employ of b. bwehilaeg agreed d ee measure, ing to substitute weight uponfor as th e s t andard weight. The upon having a st an d ar d tub, because, as the putters, the on-setters, the banksmen, and all the expenses of horses and machinery would b e the same for light tubs as for heavy ones, a seriou s l oss would be entailed upon them if the weight of the t u b s should fall short of a certain recognised standard. Wh at that standard shall be seems now to be the main point in dispute. The men assert that before the strike their tubs were entirely confiscated if they fell short of a fixed standard, a standard so high that the required quantity of coals could not be got into them without rocking and jolting the tubs, in order to solidify the mass, and then filling them up again. The masters are now willing to accept as the standard the average of six tubs, filled in the workings without rocking, and the men demand as the standard the weight of a tub filled " wood-full " on the pit heap. This the masters decline to accede to, inas much as they allege it would practically amount to an in crease of wages to the extent of 9d per score tubs, and this is an advance which, in the present state of the coal trade, they do not feel themselves justified in giving. At the begin ning of the week the men belonging to the Brandon Colliery expressed their willingness to go to work on the terms pro posed by the masters, but as the men of the other pits desire them to hold out and assist them in securing their demands, they still remain on strike. The men connected with the Bitchburn and Houghall collieries,also belonging to Messrs. Straker and Love, have this week struck work. They have not yet issued any manifesto of their grievances, but it is understood that they are similar in character to those which have been announced by the men belonging to the Sunny brow, Brancepeth, and Brandon collieries. For some time past the men at Bitchburn Colliery have been on what is termed the restrictive system"—a system dictated by the agents of the Union with the avowed object of raising wages by limiting the supply of coal. Though able to earn from from 4s to 5s per day of eight hours, the men have for some time past been voluntarily restricting their labours. Re cently they restricted their labours to 2s Gd per day, then to Is 3d per day each, afterwards to one tub per day each, and on Wednesday morning they ceased work altogether. In other collieries the same species of restriction is being carried on to a greater or less extent, and at nearly the whole of the pits in this neighbourhood there is an under current of disaffection at work, produced by tho machinations of the paid agents of the Union. On Thursday a procession of from 600 to 700 of the miners on strike visited Houghall and Shincliffe collieries, near the city of Durham. They held an open-air meeting and numerous harangues were delivered, but the Shincliffe men declined to fraternise with them or acknowledge them in any way. Y ester _ day and the day before a number of the families of the pit men on strike at Spennymoor Colliery, in the county of Durham, belonging to the West Hartlepool Railway Com pany, were evicted from their cottages. Down to Thursday night 58 families had been evicted. The strike at this col liery h as b een going on some weeks. It is directed ma i n l y against an obnoxious overman, named Ralph Parker, who m the masters will not discharge. ST. DOMINGO. SOUTHAMPTON, Thursday. The La Plata brings the following latest intelli gence from St. Domingo to the 25th October. Puerto Plata was burnt by the Dominicans on the 4th October. The town was entirely destroyed, excepting the warehouses of Messrs. Ginibra Brothers. All the merchants left were mined. The fort was held by 1,400 Spanish troops, under Brigadier Rivera, who was anxiously awaiting orders from the Spanish Government, and expecting reinforcements from Ilavannah and Porto Rico. The Spanish were unable to fetch water for the troops from Rio San Marco in consequence of the losses experienced from attacks of the enemy.
