SIR RICHARD MAYNE AND THE DOGS.----Up to yesterday between 11,000 and 12,000 dogs have been ap prehended by the police under the orders of Sir Richard Mayne. Of these between 8,000 and 9,000 have been destroyed ; the greater portion at a place a few miles from Berkhampstead. Those that were allowed to live have either been claimed or sold. At the Marylebone Police court, on Saturday, a constable incidentally stated that since the issue of Sir Richard Mayne's edict against the canine race he had captured no fewer than 270 dogs. His hands were covered with black marks, caused by the bites of vicious animals and the subsequent cauterisation. The Hartford Live Stock Insurance Company of Hartford, Connecticut, has been suspended. The com pany has sustained losses within the last twenty-two months of $llO,OOO. The capital of the company is $150,000, $lOO,OOO of which has been deposited with the Treasurer of Connecticut. The Second National Bank of Des Moines, located at Des Moines, lowa, is closing up its affairs. Tho Banking House of Messrs. E. W. Earl and Co., Reading., Pensylvannia, has suspended opera tions, having met with reverses which it was impossible for them to withstand. A notice on the door of the bank ing house announces that their a , sels aro sufficient to satisfy all interested. SHEET IKON CHlMNEYS.—Minneapolis, Minnesota, has produced a sheet iron chimney which is made of three sheet iron cylinders, the space between the outer and second one being filled with ashes, thus securing safety from fire. It is lighter and safer than brick. Among the lectures to be delivered before the American Agricultural College this fall will bo a course of ten by Dr. Calvin Cutter, author of the well-known school physiology, o❑ the Laws of Health ; by Mr. Flint, secre tary of the Board of Agriculture, ten lectures on Dairy farming ; by Dr. Jabez Fisher, of Fitchburg, ten lectures on Market Gardening; by the Hon. Marshal P. Wilder, lectures on Modes of Hybridizing and Improviug Orna mental and Useful Plants, besides a large number of other lectures on various important topics. A newly patented German whaling gun is being exhibited in New Bedford, Eastern Mass.; it is double, very heavy, mounted on trunnions, and fires from one barrel a harpoon, and from the other a bomb lance with admirable accuracy. A correspondent of the Naples and Florence Ob server thus writes from the Dardanelles :—" The Ameri can of the port at Scio—an Hellenic subject—has been sent up hero under arrest by the Ahmet liaiserli Pasha, governor of the island, for alleged share in the recent riot on the occasion of the rejoicings for the birth of the young Greek prince. The man is said to have protested, on the double ground of his nationality and his Ameri can office, but neither availed him, and he is now a prisoner in the fortress. It remains to be seen what steps the American and Greek Ministers will take under the circumstances." We are able to answer the suggested query of our correspondent. On receiving the news, Mr. Morris promptly demanded satisfaction from the Porte, claiming the man's immediate release, his conveyance back o Scio in 'a Turkish man of war, and an apology from the Pasha to the American Consul. We have reason to believe that the incident has already induced a visit of Admiral Farrigut in the Franklin to the island. The re sult has not reached us up to oUr going to press." Timber planting is going on ostensibly at lowa, and a simile? movement begins to be apparent in the prairie States generally. The woods preferred are ash, maple, walnut, chestnut, and some evergreens. A one-horse power paper steamboat is being built at Ballston, New York. The British Medical Journal has the following : —An American physician, Dr. Ayres, of Fort Wayne, In diana, addresses a contemperary as follows :—" A ruinous and fatal idea of beauty prevails to an alarming extent, among the young ladies of the United States. Any cos metic producing a pallor of the face is profusely applied; any substance which will rob the blood of its vitality and red globules, and send debility throughout the organism, is greedily swallowed and sent on its de structive mission. A small waist is considered the per fection of form, when in truth it is the opposite, and only a distortion of that development which nature would give. Where such deformity cannot be induced by a listless, sedentary life, it is brought about by the sacrifice of hap piness and health. This fanaticism, or monomania, is yearly carrying runny of its votaries to premature graves, or rendering them sad images of degenerate women." He relates the case of a young lady, accomplished in mind, and vigorous and healthy, who, to reduce her body to paleness and delicacy, took sulphate of mag nesia for upwards of a year. The result was an utter deterioration of health in mind as well as of body, and ultimately death. Dr. Ayres intimates that this case is only one of many. We are accustomed to speak of the Chinese custom of deforming the feet of their ladies, and of the flattening of children's heads by some savage tribes, as barbarous practices. But those are small barbarities, in comparison with those disastrous practices which, if Dr. Ayres speaks correctly, aro allowed not only to deform, but to destroy human life, in a country which boasts of high civilisation. Sales in Chicago, as shOwn by the books of the assessor, amount to the enormous sum of over $325,000,000. The actual figures, however, it is believed, fully come up to $350,000,000, from the fact that a large number of the resident merchants have not as yet made returns. From the list, as published, we find that 78 houses report sales in excess of $1,000,000, nine exhibit transactions exceed ing $2,000,000, and four furnish statements in excess of $3,000,000. Two other houses report an amount over $7,000,000 each, and one makes returns exceeding $9,798,000. REDUCING EXPENSES.—TheSecretary of the Trea sury is engaged in reducing the expenses of collecting the customs, by discharging the useless force employed in the different custom-houses. The special agents for the cus toms branch have been instructed to examine and report where retrenchment can be effected, and orders have al ready been issued based upon these reports, which will effect a saving of a quarter million dollars annually. The Secretary signed an order cutting off $98,000 in yearly expenses of the New York Custom-house. When the work is finished the reduction of expenses in the Customs Department will amount to over a million of dollars per annum. The Pall Mall Gazette says :—General Frank Blair, the Democratic candidate for the Vice-Presidency, once distinguished himself by making a speech on Fenianism. He told his audience, which consisted chiefly of Irishmen, that he hoped to see the day when Ireland would be independent. Ho promised to assist the Irish in every way he could to accomplish the undertaking. "May you," he is reported to have said, "lift the British lion out of his boots, and wrest from his grasp the emerald gem of the sea." These sentiments drew down rounds of applause, and the General was the most popular man in the city for the moment, until he added, "May you each and all remain in Ireland or else where, and never again set foot upon those shores. You are wanted there, and we can got along without you." Public feeling here changed towards him, and ho was hooted down. The report is given by a Boston paper, but among the practices of election leaders is that of forging a speech in order to injure a man; and as this has been carried on extensively of late in reference to all the Southern leaders, it may ba that General Blair never said the good things attributed to him. The following are the dates respectively when the several provinces of the Dominion were established as colonies of the British empire : —Nova Scotia, 1621 ; Now Brunswick, 1716 ; Lower Canada, 1750 ; and Upper Canada, 1760. The number of immigrants who arrived in New York from January 1 to September 2, 1868, was 151,041, as compared with 171,619 arrivals during the same period last year. The total number of immigrants who arrived in the United States during the year ending Juno 30, 1868, was 273,C&7, as compared with 311,996 the previous year. At the Court of Admiralty, yesterday, before Mr. Commissioner Rothery, Mr. Robarts (Westall and Robarts, renewed an application from Tuesday, on the part of the Great Eastern Ship Company, to remove the vessel from Liverpool to Sheerness. It was understood that the great ship was to be employed in laying down the French American cable. Mr. Crawley, from the office of Messrs. Lefroy, Row , cliffe, and Co., for Messrs. Forrester, whp had a suit against the ship for £36,000, objected to the removal ; unless policies were expected to recover any loss. The ship had been fitted up as a passenger ship. The learned Registrar, after a discussion, considered the application an important one, and directed a commission for the removal of the ship from Liverpool to Sheerness on the deposit of policies to £40,000. The removal was tc be at the expense of the company, and an undertaking given as to the care of the articles on board. Order accordingly. FATHER IGNATIUS IN THE CITY. The attempt made at the close of the service yester day week to mob Father Ignatius in consequence of the fierce denunciations he had launched against the money-getting practices of Lombard -street, attracted a larger congregation than ever to St. Edmund's yesterday afternoon. The doors, kept by an efficient body of the City police, were opened at half-past one o'clock, within ten minutes of which time every seat in the body of the aisles of the building was occupied, the proportion of men to women being at least three to one. At a quarter to one, the Father, wearing a monastic-al habit, passed through the church to the vestry, stopping on his way to prostrate himself before the altar. The Litany having been read by the assistant clergyman and a hymn sung, Father Ignatius, wearing a surplice and hood, ascended the pulpit, and preached from the Bth verse of the 50th chapter of Isaiah : "He is near that justifieth me." The discourse founded on these words, delivered with intense earnestness of both gesture and voice, was listened to with almost breathless attention. It was manifest that the curiosity of his audience was greatly excited to know if the preacher would make any allusion to the demonstration of last week. Not a word, however, on the subject dropped from his lips in the course of the sermon, which occupied exactly thirty-five minutes. The moment the service was over it was apparent that the large crowd gathered outside intended mischief. Some six or seven hundred persons, for the most part well-dressed men, crowded the narrow thoroughfare of Lombard - street, awaiting the ap pearance of the Father, whilst his friends lined the door of the church to the street to protect him from violence and insult. As soon as the church was emptied of the congregation the doors were closed, amidst the mingled hisses and cheers of the crowd. These marks of popular feeling were renewed as every few minutes some well-known follower of the popular preacher emerged from the building, and were interspersed with exhortations couched in anything but polite language to Father Ignatius to "come out like a man." In the excitement of the scene several free fights occurred between the rival factions, and hats and umbrellas were sadly damaged. When the crowd had waited with noisy impatience for about an hour, it was rumoured, much to the disappointment of its mem bers, that Father Ignatius had made good his retreat through a window at the back of the church. DR. LEE v. " VERITAS." The following loiter his been addressed to the Globe : Sir,—A frequent end well-known correspondent of the Guar dian, who now styles himself " Veritas," having been bold enough in last Wednesday's impression to deny the accuracy of certain statements made in my public letter to Mr. Gathorne Hardy, I must request you to be kind enough to publish the following extract from the actual letter received by me from a dignitary of position at Rome, in March of the present year. In the note to my public letter referred to, I was content to give, and I believe to give fairly and impartially, the substance of it. Below, however, is the text, with a few names (which I have not the permission of the writer to make public) left blank. I have also inserted the word "Irish" in brackets to make one sentence in it more plain.— Your obedient servont, FREDERICK GEORGE LEE. 19, Colesbill-street, Eaton-square, S.W., September 18. " The Liberal party with you appears more disposed to do justice to Ireland, England's difficulty, than my Lord Derby and his followers. Even-allows this;---tells mo that quite recently-spoke frankly to-on the present position of Catholics there, and says that Gladstone, who can certainly reckon on the support of Lord Clarendon, Lord Granville, and possibly of Mr. Fortoscue, is fully prepared to endow and give an established position to the Church. This need only entail at present the partial disendowment of the (Irish) Establishment. I know that the Cardinal distrusts this policy (at least he did so when here), question ing the wisdom of the Whigs in making an attempt in which it is known that they are certain to be opposed by the Duke of Argyll, Sir It. Palmer, and Sir G. Grey. But if the conditions sketched out by - (which were sub mitted to -) are unreservedly withdrawn, his Eminence would sanction the scheme, and render every support in his power towards accomplishing it. As for repudiating the principle of Church and State, believe me that neither here nor elsewhere has the Church ever done so, nor, whatever may be maintained to the contrary, is she likely to do so now for Ireland, if the people should, as they would, be prepared to hail the boon with grateful enthusiasm. - has misled you on this point by giving more weight to -'s pamphlet than they or their author deserved. Of course - could not have acted in the matter, nor on the other hand could -, unless each had been authorised to do so from head quarters, which I feel certain was the case. We have no confidence whatever in -. His opposition to the Plenipotentiary Bill or pro posal was a mistake which he is now said to feel, A ROMANTIC LAW CASE. The courts of law will in all probability be occupied early in the ensuing session with one of those remarkable cases which so often occur in romances, and so seldom in real life. It appears that about a hundred and twenty years ago a large estate close to one of the most important of English manufacturing towns was in the possession of the great grandfather of the parties to the present litiga tion. Since that time the land has been built upon to a great extent, and now forms the most wealthy suburb of the town in question. At the death of the owner, his eldest son, finding that there was no will, naturally claimed the estate. The children of a second marriage, however, who had never lived on good terms with their half brother, protested against his title on the ground that his parents had never married, and that he was consequently illegi timate. It seemed at first that there was no ground for this statement. The parents had always been received in society, and no one had ever heard of any scandal in con• nection with them. On making inquiry it was, however, found impossible to discover any trace of the marriage, and the eldest son was forced to submit and to leave the home he had always considered his own, without a shilling. He went into town and embarked in trade, apparently without much success, for his grandson is at the present time a shoemaker in a back street, and in a very small way of business. The tradition of the lost estate has, however, always been preserved, and some time since this descendant of the elder son recommenced the search for proof of the marriage in question. After much trouble he succeeded in getting at the copies of the registers which are preserved in the Chancery of Chester, and there, in the index, he discovered, somewhat earlier than was expected, the names of the original possessor of the estate and his first wife. There was, however, no such entry in the body of the book. At last, however, on going through it for the last time it was discovered that two leaves had been fastened together, and on their being separated a copy of the entry of the marriage from the books of a Manchester church was duly found. On referring back to the church itself the book was pro duced, but the entry was not there. Further examina tion shewed, however, that this book had also been tampered with, but in a different way—a leaf had been cut out with scissors, and the marks were even then distinctly visible. On these facts the action will be brought, and when it is remembered that the present family have been in possession for nearly a century, and that they are highly respected, and their members married amongst the wealthiest people in the county, it may readily be imagined that the matter is creating a good deal of interest. The value of the property at stake is between one and two hundred thousand pounds. A man at Bradford, suprosel to be insane, has cut his own and his wife's throats.
