The great question at the present moment, how appears to be, when and by what means Prosperous as the whole career of the Industrial can the movement be arrested ? We fear Exhibition has been, should be while it is unfortunate ortunate that so much that it will be exceedingly difficult to return satisfac obduracyance for yet a brief evinced longer, to its continu- tory responses to these interrogatories. It is much as in ref:- easier to excite a popular feeling than allay it.

' AI _I :- TEEE SUN, v'eason, it would appear, that the authorities are re- 1 solved.to terminate the duration of their responsi bilities at the preciae moment stipulated in the agree mc alt. Now, we must protest at once in so doing we conceive that the personages intrusted with these regulations are acting upon an extravagant principle of pertinacity rather than upon a laudable anxiety to be true to their prdmises. They cannot by any possibility mar the good already effected by the Exhibition in keeping it open during one or two weeks longer in compliance with a wish very generally expressed throughout the population. They cannot enhance the merit of their previous course by refusing to comply in a particular of this kind with the hopes expressed by the community. They cannot in any way increase the reputation already acquired by them as the conductors of the most gigantic enterprise of the kind ever adventured upon by gainsaying the advan tages that might accrue from the acceptance of this very prevalent suggestion. But by taking the hint thrown out to them by the public, by following the advice tendered by the leading journalists of the United kingdom, by yielding to the dictates of their own good judgment, they might, and would, unquestionably, advance their fame in the estimation of Europe as the most energetic and far-seeing body of men that has ever superintended any similar undertaking. We speak thus not with any intention whatever of ren dering our argument more palatable by sweetening it with complimentary phrases. We co mmend the Royal Commissioners in these words o f eulogium, because we look upon them as eminently entitled to such commendation. Their entire proceedings have been characterised throughout by a spirit of liberality, of activity, and of unprejudiced ardour such as com mands in their favour our most cordial admiration. All that we are s olicitous to witness in their regard by way of improvement is the evidence of a little less resolution at a time when that reso lution amounts to nothing less creditable than obdu racy. Therefore it is that we still flatter ourselves with the hope that they may be ultimately induced, on a little further reflection, to yield the boon demanded from them by a considerable sec tion of the community—the boon of that sup plementary month or furtninght which should appropriately crown their most arduous exertions, with another token of their very generous considera tion for public convenience. Several among the exhibitors appear to have che rished an expectation that a month such as the one above suggested would be resolved ,upon by the Commissioners, and that the proceeds of those four weeks additional would be appropriated to their own especial advantage, for the payment in some measure at least of their very heavy expenditure. The notion, it must be allowed, is in every respect sufficiently ingenious. It would have defrauded no one and would at the same time have removed the only subject of complaint cherished in any quarter in relation to the conduct of the Exhibition—namely, the supposed slights passed upon the exhibitors by the Royal Commissioners. Possibly it is not even now too late to alter the system previously resolved upon, so as to carry out in some way the hopes and sug gestions of those parties to whose skill, and industry, and enterprise the whole of this great Exhibition is indebted for its success. Of course it may be argued that if the exhibitors have incurred the expenses here alluded to, they have done so with their eyes open, and upon their own responsibility. Correct though such an argument un doubtedly is, we cannot but regard it as also most un deniably ungenerous. With such an enormous sur plus in hand it would be magnanimous on the part of the Commissioners to endeavour by such means as those which have been here indicated to diminish in some measure the large expenditure incurred by the exhibitors in the manufacture of show contribu tions, and in their transmission to the Crystal Palace. In many instances the cost of carriage has necessarily and obviously been very great, more particularly in the instance of our own colonists and of the foreigners. It would be graceful, therefore, as well as magnanimous to decrease the onus of this ex penditure. Our convictions, indeed, upon this head are earnest enough to render us still sanguine of wit nessing the announcement of some such supplemen tary arrangement in obedience to the decision of her MAJESTY'S Commissioners. The Irish " Exodus," as it has appropriately been termed, now forms the topic of chief interest on the other side of St. George's Channel. That the inhabi tants of a country, which has already been so deeply and so severely t.fil:cted, should regard with astonish ment, not unmingled with alarm, a movement that is rapidly transferring to another hemisphere the labouring population, the thews and sinews of their native land is by no means surprising. They sae those who, under more favourable circum stances, might be the creators and producers of national wealth, day after day, flying from their shores, and seeking refuge where there will be a more fitting appreciation of human labour, and fairer remuneration for those able and willing to work. Those who were previously the most strenuous and indefatigable advocates for a wholesale system of emi gration—for driving the " surplus population"(! !), as they impiously termed GOD'S creatures, their equals in every respect except the adventitious circumstances of rank and wealth, forth to seek their fortune in other climes, ar e beginning to think that the matter is going rather farther than they had anticipated to reflect upon the mischief that may arise from no longer having "hewers of wood" and " drawers of water" to answer at the first " beck or nod" of the task-master. The almost miraculous natural capa bilities of the country and the necessity of " cheap labour" for their thorough development are at length taken into consideration. The wages of working men must be very largely increased, when the demand will be for labour and not for employment, when the difficulty will be to find "a man to undertake a job," and not to find "a job for a man to undertake." It is manifest that the long talked-of improvements which were only talked of when " labour was a drug in the market," but which were never even at tempted to be carried into practical execution, must be wholly relinquished, when the wages of those by whom they were to be effected will have been more than quadrupled. or by extraction now form no inconsiderable portion of the citizens of " the United States." We speak of our American brethren as an Anglo-Saxon race. Perhaps " ethnologists " may discover that " a Celtic race" would be a more correct descrip tion. The most hackneyed scribes cannot ac cuse the inhabitants of the new world of want of energy or determination, or speak of them as a "doomed nation." They will reserve their revilings for those who still linger on their native shores—who have yet preserved their allegiance to our most Gra cious SOVEREIGN. They are still "the most degraded of their 'species," reproaches are still showered upon them, as if the degrees of comparison could only be discovered in Ireland,—the peasants being " bad," the occupiers " worse," and the landowners the very worst of human beings. These scurrilous caluynnia tors forget the old adage— " Ccelum non animam mutant, qui trans mare currunt." The triumphant success of those who have passed the Atlantic show that the unquestionable evils that have existed in Ireland must be ascribed to other sources than those arising from any alleged moral or physical deficiency of the Irish people. THE FRENcH REPUBLIC. Welhave received the Paris journals of yesterday. It is considered certain that MM. LEON FAUCHER and CARLIER will quit office, and that their resigna tions will probably be accompanied by that of M. BUFFET, of the office of Minister of Commerce, and that of General RANDON, of that of Minister of War. M. ROMIEU, the author of the " Era of the Ceesars," who declares that military despotism is the best form of government, is spoken of as the successor of M. CARLIER. General SANTA. Cxuz, Minister Plenipotentiary of Bolivia, returned to Paris last evening, after six weeks' absence, employed visiting in England and Belgium. Count BATTUTANY has taken a small apartment in the Champs Elya6e.s, and proposes to live in the strictest retirement. The Assemblic Nationale has the following brief remarks on the Ministerial crisis :—" All the reports in circulation relative to Ministerial combinations should be received with great reserve. If we are well informed, the PRESIDENT is more undecided than ever, and the nearer the day approaches when he is to an nounce his final determination the more he desires to postpone any decision on the law of May 31, and on the change of Ministry. It must nevertheless be admitted that a conviction is felt at the Elysee, that the Cabinet is much shaken, and that, under any cir cumstances, the opening of the Parliament cannot arrive without material modifications being made in it." The Journal des Debats, in a few words, confirms the above account so far as to no decision having been come to. The Journal des Debats says that it is authorised to declare that there is no truth whatsoever in the state ment of some of the journals that the Ambassador of the Ottoman Porte, in a recent interview with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, presented a note, setting forth that, as ABBAS Paola had refused to satisfy the Porte, it was determined to employ force to pre vent the execution of the railway from Alexandria to Cairo. _ _ An election of a representative of the people for Senegal took place in that colony on the 17th August N. SLEITII, deputy mayor of St. Louis, was elected by 1,150 votes, against 990 given to N. LEFOILT GONSSOLIN. The Bourse was feeble, with little business doing. The Fire per Cents. opened at 91f., and closed at 90f. 60c. for the end of the month; the Three per Cents. closed at 55f. 50e.; Orleans Railroad Shares, 855 f. ; Rouen. 5651.; Havre, 2121. 50c.; Great Nor thern, 4551.; Vierzon, 422 f. 50c.; Basle, 146 f. 25c.; Bordeaux, 382 f. 50e.; Paris and Strasburgh, 350 f.; Tours and Nantes, 2601.; Amiens to Boulogne, 2601. BUSINESS bONE . IN FOREIGN RAILWAYS AT THE LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE, Ocr. 13. Namur and Liege, 7—Northern of France, 14—Orleans and Bordeaux, PA . SPAIN. Madrid journals of the Bth have arrived. The Herald() states that a Ministerial crisis has arisen owing to the Minister of Marine, General ARMEE°, having offered his resignation ; but it adds in a postscript that the General has, on the solicitation of the Marquis DE MIRAFLORES, Minister for Foreign Affairs, consented to retain his portfolio for the pre sent. The cause of M. ARMENO'S wish to retire is said to be his opposition to granting certain recompenses demanded by the Captain-General of Cuba to the persons who distinguished themselves in resisting the invasion of the bands of LOPEZ ; the Minister of War and the majority of the other Ministers being of opinion that the recompenses ought to be accorded. There is no other news of political importance in the Spanish journals. The English fleet arrived in the port of Rosas on the 30th ult., and was to remain eight days. Admiral PARKER and his family had frequently landed. MADRID BoLsa, OCT. B.—The Three per Cents. were done at 36 3-16 for time, the Five per Cents. at 16a, the Debt without Interest at 6 3-16; and the Coupons at Bi. PORTUGAL. Accounts have been received from Lisbon of the 9th. The QUEEN was confined of a still-born child on ;he 7th. The Duke of TERCEIRA still continued a member of the Cabralist Election Committee. No fresh cases of yellow fever had occurred at Oporto for ten days. GERMAN Y. The Frankfort Journal of the 10th denies in the most positive manner an assertion made in one of the London journals, that Baron KOLLER, Austrian Charge d'Affaires in London, intends to demand his passports in the event of KOSSUTH being allowed to disembark in London. The Journal remarks that Baron KOLLER is not Charge d'Affaires, and, besides, that he is at present at Vienna. Austria has not a Charge d'Affaires at London, but an envoy extraor dinary and minister plenipotentiary, namely, Count DE BUOL-SCHAUENSTEIN. The Rostock Gazette, under date of Frankfort, 6th instant, says that, in its sitting of the 31, the Ger manic Diet had named a commission, composed of Austria, Prussia, Bavaria, Saxony, and the Grand Duchies of Hesse and A.lcklemburgh, charged to examine the constitutions of the different states, and to make propositions on the subject. ITALY. The Piedmontese Gazette of the 10th publishes the convention entered into between the Holy See, the Grand Duke of TUSCANY, AUSTRIA, and the Dukes of MODENA and PAUMA, for the construction of a railway line, to be denominated the Railroad of Central Italy, which is to connect Reggio with Bologna, Modena, and Pistoria, or Prato ; from Reggio it is to branch out in two different directions, one branch leading to Pia cenza, the other to Mantua. The execution is to be granted to one or more companies, with privileges to last not more than one hundred years, and the gua rantee of a minimum of interest on the capital. The companies are to allow the contracting Governments to establish telegraphic wires along the line, and are to bind themselves to transport at least one waggon per train for the account of the post-office. KOSSUTH. The Iberia arrived at Southampton, last evening, but did not bring any news of KOSSUTH. She left Gibraltar the sth, Lisbon the 9th, and Vigo the 10th, but had not seen anything of the Mississippi. " WHAT ARE TRIBUNALS OF COMMERCE ? "4 —The question is one that is now generally asked by many who have had their attention directed to a subject brought forward under the auspices of a very influ ential committee, who are desirous of obtaining a cheap and expeditious mode of dealing with such questions of mercantile and commercial law as may from day to day arise throughout the country. The object is undoubtedly good. The parties wish to have pure justice administered according to the real merits of every case, and without its being possible that it should be defeated by technicalities. Such is also our desire and that of every legal reformer through out the length and breadth of the land. We shall not, however, say that the proposed plan is that best calculated to attain the great desideratum. That is another question which will demand closer dayconsidera tion,i,ir : Tribunals well will i: le 1:i. repay permit. o f perusal. and a more lengthened notice than our space this * " What are ta nt Tribunals Wecan, however, recommend Mr. Stanley's brochure to all who are anxious to form a just conception of the suggestions thrown out.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated at 8,000 bales, of which 3,500 were taken for export. The sales comprised 5,500 American, 800 Pernam and Maranham, at 52d. to 71d.; 400 Bahia, at 6d. to 61d.• 500 Egyptian, at 511. to 8d; 500 Surat, at 3id. to 4-4-d.; and 100 Sea Island, at is. id. to is. sid. per lb. ' The market closed firmly.--Railway Shares were flat at lower prices. The following is from Messrs. Schroeder and Mummy's Circular, dated New Orleans, Sept. 20, and published by Mr. James Irvine, of Liverpool:— " CoTTON.—In our review of the let of September, we mentioned that prices were sustained at that time by a very animated demand for the North and France. The same good inquiry continued during the week ending oth instant, and the supplies being scarcely adequate to the demand, prices were pushed up as high as 9c. for middling, with sales of about 5,500 bales. Last week opened rather more quiet, under the influence of more ample supplies, and prides declined considerably from the above quotation. Towards the middle of the week, however, owing to the continued favourable accounts per Franklin and Niagara, a more animated demand sprung up, buyers for the North, France, the Continent, and Great Britain, entering the market more freely, and the week closed with 8:1c. for middling, sales about 7,500 bales. In the beginning of this week, the receipt of the less favourable accounts per Pacific, and still more so per Europa, caused buyers to be ess anxious, and in many instances concessions were made by holders ; the demand, however, has continued generally very good, mostly for the North, with a moderato portion for France, Great Britain, and the Continent, and the sales amount to 8,200 bales. " In giving the following quotations, we would remark ' that the middling qualities are paid comparatively higher than the finer grades:—Ordinary to good ordinary, lie. to Bc. ; middling, B:}c. ; good middling, Bc. ; middling fair, 9c. to sic.; fair, 9ic. to 92c. " The receipts have been unusually heavy so far, which might lead people at a distance into error as to their bearing on the extent of the crop. The unusual drought had the effect of ripening prematurely, in many instances, the fruit very early; adding to this the ex tremely favourable weather for picking, and the desire on the part of planters to meet the good demand prevail ing in this market, the early shipments aro easily ex plained. " With regard to the prospects of the crops, however, the same unfavourable accounts continue to reach us from the interior, as were mentioned in our last. The drought has undoubtedly shortened the crop on the up lands very materially, and even with the increased plant ing, it is generally believed that the yield from those lauds will not exceed, if it does not fall short of last year. Everywhere, it is said, there is an entire absence of top crop. From the bottom lands the accounts are still favourable, although by no means so much so as they were. Plantations which were not overflowed last year, made as much then as they are likely to do now; but of course a great gain will be made on the plantations which were submerged then. The general impression seems now to fix upon two and a half million of bales, with an average favourable season hereafter. " According to the statement of the New York Ship ping and Commercial List,' the cotton crop of last year amounts to 2,355,257 bales. Sales since the Ist of September, 19,200 bales. Receipts at this port since Ist of September, 30,410 bales, against 9,555 bales last year. The Produce Markets are rather quiet, but consump tion progresses steadily. The Lisbon mail has arrived, and brings rather more satisfactory intelligence upon monetary affairs. The circulation of the Bank was reduced by 1,600 contos, being only 400,0001., and the discount on its notes was 2 per cent. The rate of exchange was depressed, being 52} for 9U days on London ; and unless paper was re ceived from Brazil or Cadiz, there was not likely to be an improvement. One piece of news, that must prove disagreeable to the bondholders is that the Minister of Finance was stated to have the idea of capitalizing the floating debt of the arrears of salaries of the public employes and the pen sions. Perhaps, however, it may be fairly urged that if a debt is due, the sooner it is put in a train for settle ment the better. The vintage around Lisbon is better spoken of. It may be interesting to those who have mercantile relations with the 'United States and California to know that alterations have been made in the regulations in re gard to goods upon which the import duties shall have been paid, transported from one port of the United States to another within the same, via the Isthmus of Panama. It is ordered that where any goods, wares or merchandise, of the de scription before•mentioned, are intended to be trans ported from any port of the United States, situated either on the Atlantic or Pacific seaboard to any other port within the United States, to be conveyed or carried across the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, the Isthmus of Panama, or over the San Juan de Nicaragua route, to wit:- Ist. It is to be distinctly understood that the law does not authorize either drawback or warehouse goods, under bond, to be transported by the routes before in dicated and become entitled to the privileges of the Drawback and Warehousing Act. 2d. Parties wishing to ship goods for transportation by the routes above mentioned, must before lading the same on board the vessel at the port of shipment, give at least forty-eight hours' notice, in writing, to the col lector of said port of his shipment, describing the goods, and their place or places of deposit; whereupon the col lector will direct an inspector of the Customs to examine and superintend the boxing, packing, or casing, as the case may be, of the goods, which must be securely corded, and a lead seal attached thereto by the said officer, to prevent the boxes, bales, cases, or packages from being opened. Strict precautions will be taken to examine the goods subsequently and on their arrival. The meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Spencer, Ashlin, and Co., held yesterday afternoon, was ad journed, as the offer of 3s. 6d. in the pound was not deemed satisfactory without some further explanation as to certain preference claims recently discharged. It would appear, however, that there is every disposition to restore the amount to the general account. The balance-sheet made up by Messrs. Quilter, Ball, and Co., to Sept. 11, may be interesting to parties in the grain trade its which the losses have been sustained, and we therefore append it:— MESSRS. SPENCER, A.SHLIN, AND CO.

Who cliyideuds ore this Pawling beiPg plaid to the public at the Bank of England, and there is a fair at tendance of annuitants. It frequently occurs, however, that immediately upon the re-opening of the Transfer books, sates of stock are made, and there is a change of investment or a determination to keep money lying unemployed and await a favourable opportunity. At present the very unsettled state of the French Ministry militates against the influence of the favourable revenue. A serious question begins alio to be now mooted by the speculators for a fall, viz., the probable abolition of the income•tax, and a consequent excess of national expenditure. There is, however, ample time to consider all this, and judicious reduction of expendi ture would partly, if not wholly, meet the case, allowing that Parliament abolished the tax instead of modifying it, as many expect. We regret to state that a large failure has occurred this morning, that of Mr. Thomas Allsop, esteemed, and no doubt until lately, really a wealthy member of the Stock Exchange. Mr. Allsop is stated to be a Bear of Consols and a Bull of shares. The event has caused unfeigned regret.

AND AN IRISH BOG.—At 8 place called Knock-a-naugh, about 73 miles from Cork, the engineer of the Great Southern and Western Railway of Ireland met with a bog, which for a long time defied all his ingenuity. His attempts to fill it up with firm earth totally failed. It swallowed up every one of the numerous loads cast into it, and gaped for more, making nothing of the energetic measures thus taken to destroy it. A locomotive engine fell a sacrifice to its insatiable nature, for having ven tured too far it was taken in by the bog, and has never been seen since ; it now lies in the bog at some unknown depth below the railway. At length the engineer overcame the difficulty of the bog by stratagem, not force. Finaing the bog was too much for all the loads of solid stuff he could put upon it, and was not to be filled up, he compassed his object by floating the rails across it, which was done by wooden rafters. By this means the bog is made to bear the rails as firmly as any other part of this extremely well-laid rail way, and the great trouble it once gave is now only matter of recollection. MEXICO.--NEW ORLEANS, THURSDAY, SEPT. 25. —We have received news from Mexico to the 25th of August. The country generally was quiet. The papers notice the death of General Carrosas. General Morin had been censured for surrendering the Almagre and Sarabia, the two American vessels seized at Tehuantepec. An in surrection has broken out in the central American states of San Salvador and Guatemala. General Carrera, with a force of I ,500 men, had attacked the enemy in San Salvador, who mustered 4,000 st , ong, and defeated them, with a loss of four men killed. He then evacuated the country.
