We expect to hear as we write of the result of the election in California. When the mail left, the Re publican victory in Vermont had not taken place, but as Vermont was an acknowledged Republican stronghold little interest was excited, except in a faint way, as to the number of the majority. The currents of opinion most clearly seen are on the sur face, and do not indicate as much as their appear ance might lead one to suppose. Since the Tammany platform and ticket the present is the third phase. At first the Republicans spoke of the Demo cratic chances with pity and contempt. They re garded the nominations as a mere empty honour, and this feeling was at the time pretty general with the Democrats themselves. The ratification meet ing produced an enthusiasm, and the currente-began to move swiftly (at least on the surface) in Demo cratic favour. In a few weeks the party was raised from its despondency, and became confident of vic tory, and the Republicans were driven from con tempt into alarm, and from the apathy with which they had hitherto looked on in the complacence of overwhelming strength into strenuous exertion to hold their ground. The news this week makes it more than ever difficult to predict, for it is clear that the Republicans have stemmed the Democratic cur rent, and even they allow only in the nick of time. If the Conservatives are to be believed their chief means of doing this has been by putting speeches into the mouths of leading Southerners which they repudiate. The Tribune, the Times, and the herald are all accused of these forgeries, published with the intention of creating an impression in the North that the old leaders of the rebellion desire to renew the civil war, and in sist now as much as ever in ruling their States, and wallopping their niggers. The Hon. Howell Cobb denies the truth of the Tribune's report of his speech, asserting that his words of hope and peace have been distorted into war and revolution ; and this complaint has been so general, its effects so striking, that it, probably led to the gathering of Southerners at the White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia, where a conference was lately held between Gen. Rosecrans, the newly-appointed Minister to Mexico, and Secre tary of thelnterior Browning as Government officers, and Generals Lie, Beauregard, Longstreet, Ewell, and Echols, Hon. Alexander H. Stephens, Hon. A. H. H. Stuart, Hon. John B. Baldwin, Governor Stockdale, Governor Pickens, and others on the part of the South. Rosecrans is known to have bad long interviews with Mr. Seward, and public curiosity, which is excited towards the conference at the White Sulphur Springs, connected these in terviews with the meeting, while the fact was that Rosecrans was merely receiving the elaborate in structions the Secretary of State desired to give as to his conduct in Mexico. Gen. Lee has steadily refused to take any part in whatever has even the semblance of a political interview. The meeting was followed by an address to the people of the United States, signed by Generals Lee, Beauregard, and Echols, Lion. A. 11. Stevens, lion. A. H. 11. Stuart, Hon. L. E. Harris, Governor Letcher, Governor Pickens, Judge W. J. Robertson, and many other leading men. This acidmna wao avid fully and freely to accept on the part of the South their defeat iu arms, of which the result was recognized in the abolition of slavery and negro suffrage. In the name of the Southerners they guaranteed these privileges to the negroes, adding that they had a common interest with them, while both their humanity and selfishness prompted to kind ness. At the same time they protested against concentrating political power exclusively in the negroes, who were not yet prepared to govern, and the exercise of such functions would check the spirit of reconciliation, opening the way to a cala mitous hostility likely to end in the extermination of the Freedmen. They desired only the rights of the people under the Constitution and the Union, of which in the whole Republic there were no more thorough friends. The statement that they desired to revive the civil war was a malicious invention, for far more than to the North was peace necessary to the shattered South. This address, embodying sentiments generally accept able to the citizens throughout the Republic, was immediately announced to be itself a forgery. General Rosecrans returned to Washington ou the 28th August, and while admitting his in terviews with the Southern leaders, and that the address substantially embodied the sentiments they expressed, he asserted that no such address was drawn up by them. At the same time he stated that he might himself publish an account of what he gathered from these representative Southerners. The electioneering interest at present centres strongly in Maine, where the best speakers of both parties have been on the " stump," including Judge Kelly of Pennsylvania and Senator Wilson for the Republicans, and Mr. Pendleton, of Ohio, for the Democrats. The speech of the latter gentleman at Bangor was remarkable for a change of tone, which has been hailed with satisfaction in the United States. The following is his language about Grant and Colfax : "I shall speak with no partisan bitterness. Not accus tomed myself to yield anything to harsh words, I seek not to apply them to others. Confident in the purity of my motives and the sincerity of my convictions, I am ready to admit the same integrity of purpose in all my fel low-citizens. I shall not disparage the ability or character of our opponents. I would not if 1 could pluck ono loaf from the laurels of General Grant. Whatever may be his ability as a soldier he has stood the test of success, and so far as I have known he has borne himself with moderation and magnanimity in his high office. I have known Mr. Colfax well for many years. I have seen him iu possession of great power. He is an amiable and estimable gentleman, and would perform with dignity the duties of the high office to which ho aspires. I have had pleasant associations with the members of Congress from your State, and 'remember with satisfaction that we passed through ii.any years of service in that body, inter changing the courtesies which soften the asperities of political excitement. Indeed, gentlemen, my observation of such has led me to expect the most erroneous opinions coupled with the purest motives and the most destruc tive policy, associated with the loftiest aspiration for the public good." At the same place Senator Wilson delivered a speech on the 27th, which lasted for hours. He dwelt on the fact that the Democrats are directing their efforts to the re. establishment of the Southern Confederacy, citing the words which the leading Southerns declare they never uttered. The address did not contain an allusion to the finances of the country. Mr. Pendleton spoke at Hartford on his way home. General Grant is still at the West doing nothing to forward his election, but wisely holding his peace. He is announced to be more than ever dististed with speech-mak ing. Frank Blair is " stumping" the South, and spoke at Montgomery, AlAbatna, on the 20th ult. General E. M. Lee, of Connecticut, will stump Indiana until the October election. The lion. E. M. Stanton has agreed to speak in Michigan for Grant and Colfax (luring the present campaign. General A. Logan is announced to speak in Indiana as fol lows : —Fort Wayne, Oct. 5 ; Delphi, Oct. 6 ; Lebanon, Oct. 7 ; Osgood, Oct. 8 ; Mitchell, Oct. 9 ; Wheatland, Davies county, Oct. 10. The Democrats and the Republicans are now equally PRICE. 4d. STAMPED confident. The Round Table gives the following as appearing to it sufficiently plausible to show the final result, omitting the States of Virginia, Mis sissippi, and Texas : GRANT. Alabama 8 Florida ... ... 3 Illinois 16 lowa 8 Kansas 3 Massachusetts ... 12 Michigan ... ... 8 Minnesota ... ... 4 Ncbraska 3 INew Hampshire North Carolina ... 9 Ohio ... lihode Island 4 South Carolina ... 6 Tennessee ... 10 Vermont 5 West Virginia ... ... 5 ... ... 3 ... ... 8 1641 Total ... SEYMOUR. ... 5 •.• ... ... 5 Arkansas... California Connecticut Delaware... Georgia Indiana ... Kentucky Louisiana... Maine Maryland... Missouri ... Nevada Now Jersey New York Oregon ... Pennsylvania Wisconsin ... ... G ~ 3 ~ 9 ~ 13 ~ 11 .. 7 Total ... The Nation, on the other hand, anticipates very favourable results to the Republicans from the October zlections. It says Seymour may carry Pennsylvania (doubtful), New York (not certain), Connecticut (which will go Republican if Pennsyl vania goes so in October, and possibly will go so in any event), Delaware, Kentucky, Maryland, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey (a State which there is a chance of Grant's carrying), Oregon, Alabama (which is as yet doubtful), Arkansas, Mississippi, Texas, Georgia, and Virginia, and Grant will still have more than he needs." Of all the modes of calculation which have as yet appeared the most ingenious is given by a gentleman who numbers the letters of the alphabet, then takes :e each ticket, and triNealdition of all is the total number of electoral votes, counting the three excluded States. Of this number the alphabet gives the Democratic ticket 177, and the Republican 140, which is a confirmation of what BB air asserts, that Heaven has decreed Democratic s cress : A ' 1 S l9 G 7 B ' , 2 E 5 R .lB 0 3 Y 25 A 1 D 4 M l3 N ...... ... 14 B 5 0 l5 T 2O F 6 U 2l G 7 R lB A 1 H 8 N l4 I J K ll D 4 C 3 L l2 0 l5 Dl l3 B 2 L l2 N l4 L l2 F 6 O l5 A 1 A 1 P l6 1 Q l7 It lB - - It lB - - 140 S T 2O 140 The remainder of votes U 2l in the Electoral Col- V 22 lege. W X 24 Y 25 Z A Republican caucus on Monday evening, Aug. 24, at Northamptonshire, 'Western Massachusetts, chose delegates to the State Convention as fol lows :—W. Hill, Webster Herrick, B. S. Johnson, C. S. Crouch, W. F. Arnold, Luke Lyman, H. S. mere, S. T. Spaulding, Arnold Barson, Christopher Clarke. They were specially instructed to urge the calling of future conventions on the basis of Republican votes, instead of that of polls, without regard to party. A Grant and Colfax club was formed with Colonel Luke Lyman as president, as vice-presidents, L. G. Dudley and Bela Gardner; secretary, H. S. (-ere ; treasurer, N. B. Hussey, and executive committee, Colonel J. B. Parsons, J. C. Ames, and Enos Parsons. The largest Republican gathering of the season was held at Bath (Maine) on Tuesday night, when E. A. Storrs made a two hours' address, and Henry Tallman renounced his connection with the Demo cratic party, with which he has acted for 40 years, and gave his adhesion to what he believed to be the party of progress and of peace. The Congressional nominations in Maine are as follows :—Republicans—First district, John Lynch ; second, S. P. Morrill; third, J. G. Blaine; fourth, John A. Peters; fifth, Eugene Hale. Democratic —First district, Charles A. Shaw ; second, Alonzo Gareelon ; third, E. %V. Farley ; fourth, George W. Ladd; fifth, Amos Wisewell. The Republican majorities in 1866, in all the districts, were as fol lows :—First district, Lynch's majority, 3,958 ; second district, Perham's majority, 6,421 ; third district, Blaine's majority, 6,581 ; fourth district, Peter's majority, 5,485 ; fifth district, Pike's ma jority, 4,378. The day for holding the Connecticut Republican State Convention in New Haven had been postponed from Sept. 2 to Sept. 10. The Republicans were called to meet at New Ha ven on Sept. 2, to nominate candidates for Presi dential electors. The Westfield Democrats had chosen as their delegation to the State Convention at Worcester, September 2, to nominate Presidential electors : Reuben Noble, Henry Fuller, George Rose, Leo nard Atwater, W. W. Shepard, John Avery, E. P. Parks, Munroe W. Perkins, J. H. Wessels, and Thomas Horrigan. The Pittsfield delegates to the Democratic State Co nvention,to assemble Sept. 2, w ere—C ebra Quack enbush, John C. West, George Y. Learned, D. C. Munyan, W. M. Root, T. E. Cole, Thomas F. Plunkett, P. Allen, A. E. Goodrich, John E. Mer rill, Owen Coogan, and J. N. Dunham. Apparently the campaign in the Southern States gets more and more bitter, despite the somewhat less vio lent language which the orators have been warned to em ploy. Not that they do not allow themselves full swing on all subjects but that of open war against the present State Governments. They make up for their enforced silence on that point by gross abuse of their opponents. Wade Hampton says, in a speech made in Anderson District the other day :—" These scallawags and traitors should be branded with infamy and eternally stigmatized. . . The word scallawag is used by drovers to describe the mean, lousy, and filthy kine that are not fit for butchers or dogs. . . . They have dis honoured their State, and heaped everlasting shame on their families . . . There are no words in the English language to express the utter contempt entertained by me for these renegades and traitors"—white Unionists, namely. For a year or so after the war a ma n suspected of being a Yankee took his life in his hand when he went into Anderson district; it is ono of the darkest corners of the South. Possibly speeches like this last one from Hampton may do something towards bringing back tne halcyon days of 1865. Another gentleman, speaking at the same meeting, says ;—" Who is Scott, before kigh (leaven? He is the best-looking omnibus driver I have seen in some time." " Scott" being General Scott, a hard-headed, sensible Western man, a brave soldier, and probably gentlemanly enough to think meanly of himself if he should foam at the mouth and call names when discussing the character and claims of his political opponents.

On Monday morning an accident of a very alarming nature took place at the Edgehill station of the London and North-Western Railway Company, near Liverpool. It appears that the train which leaves Rainhill generally about 9 a.m. arrives at Edgehill in ten minutes or a quarter of an hour, where the engine is uncoupled, and the carriages descend the tunnel by the aid of brake-vans to Lime street station. On Monday morning the train approached Edgehill more rapidly than usual, and the points at the siding for shunting being open, the engine dashed through and struck some empty waggons. There was a regular smash of the waggons, the buffers of the engine were broken, and the engine itself badly damaged. The pas sengers in the carriages at the fore part of the train were severely shaken, and several of them were cut and bruised, but none dangerously. As soon as the debris was cleared away, the train proceeded down the tunnel to Lime-street, where greatly exaggerated rumours concerning the acci dent were afloat. MISS ELIZABETH CHUDLEIGH. The story of Miss Elizabeth Chudleigh constitutes on, of the most notorious and long-continued scandals of Eng lish society in the last century. The memoirs and corre spondence of the period teem with allusions to the strange doings of this extraordinary woman. Born of a good Devon shire family, and of great beauty, she obtained, through her father's interest with Mr. Pulteney, afterwards the Earl of Bath, the post of maid of honour to the wife of Frederick, Prince of Wales. Wooed by the Duke of Hamilton, she became clandestinely the wife of Mr. Augustus John Hervey, the third son of the Earl of Bristol. Quarrelling with her husband, whose name she had never assumed, she destroyed, as far as she could, the legal evi dence of her marriage. Twenty years later, upon a rumour of the dangerous illness of Mr. Hervey's brother, who had succeeded to the earldom, she changed her plans. It was nothing to be the Hon. Mrs. Hervey, but it was worth while being called Countess of Bristol, and her husband was the next heir to the the title. She endeavoured to restore to its former condition, therefore, the register of her marriage. Her labour was wasted, however. The earl recovered—did not di. until ten years later. By mol lusks?, with her husband she then instituted proceedings in the ecclesiastical court for the jactitation of the marriage. By virtue of a process of this nature, when one of the parties to the suit gives out that he or she is married to the other, whereby a common reputation of their marriage may arise, the party injured " libels" the other yin the spiritual court, and unless the defendant offers actual proof of the marriage, he or she is enjoined perpetual silence thenceforth on the subject. The decree of the court, ob tained by distinct fraud and conspiracy, decided that the marriage was supposititious, and had never really taken place. Thereupon she held herself free to marry again, and in 1766 became the wife of Evelyn Pierrepont, second Duke of Kingston. In 1776, after the death of the duke, she was tried by the House of Lords for bigamy, and found guilty almost unanimously. She escaped being "burnt in the hand," however—the old punishment for her offence. She pleaded privilege of peerage, which exempted her from the indignity of corporal punishment. The verdict which took from her the title of Duchess of Kingston pro claimed her Countess of Bristol. She quitted England in possession of a large fortune, purchased a house at Calais, wandered about the Continent leading a life of extraordi nary luxury and splendour, and died in Paris of a ruptured blood-vessel in 1788.—Cassell's Maga:inc. THE NEW HOP AND MALT EXCHANGE. On Monday the handsome new Hop and Malt Exchange, which has been erected in Southwark-street, Borough, was publicly opened without ceremony, and in the most unostentatious manner. At one time it was expected that his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales would have been able to be present at the opening, but the previously arranged movements of the Prince rendered this impossible, though it is anticipated with good and sufficient reason that his Royal Highness will pay a visit to the building at no very distant date. The want which this exchange will supply is one which has long been felt by all who are in any way connected with the large and important interests represented in the hop and malt trades. The general body of metropolitan merchants—the corn, coal, and other leading mercantile trades—have each their separate exchange for the concentration and despatch of business. In this respect, those carrying on the hop and malt trades were deficient until the movement for erecting this building was commenced. In 1865 a limited liability company, with a nomir al capital of £120,000 was started, and the list of directors and other official persons con nected with it was a sufficient guarantee that the under taking would be properly and efficiently carried out. The first stone was laid in August 1866, and the result now achieved must be such as to exceed the most sanguine expectations. The building, viewed from a merely archi tectural point of view, is one of the handsomest in London, and as to its practical utility, those most intimately con nected with the trades designed to be benefited speak in the highest terms. Under the roof of this exchange growers, merchants, dealers, and buyers will have all the advan tages of a complete and well-attended market close to the termini of the chief railways which pass through the hop growing districts of Kent, Surrey, and Sussex. Some idea of the extent and character of the building may be formed from the enumeration of a few figures. The street frontage extends to something like 340 feet, and the architectural elevation is about 100 feet. The interior exchange consists of a square 80 feet long by 50 feet wide, the whole being lighted at an elevation of above 100 feet by a large glass . roof. This secures ample light and ventilation. On one aide of the square, to the right of the entrance, is a magnificent room, fitted up for the use of the sub scribers alone, writing materials and other suitable articles being provided. Arranged on the sides of the square are four storeys of public offices, which will afford accommodation to something like 120 different firms. These rooms are built in the most approved and modern style, and are replete with all the necessary requirements. We believe that half the stands on the ground floor and half the offices have already been taken. The opening of the building drew together a large number of merchants and gentlemen connected with the hop and malt trades, and all were loud in their praises of the admirable manner in which the whole design has been carried out. Unquestionably the building combines great beauty and architectural effect, together with the greatest amount of practical usefulness to secure the object in view. The cost of the building itself has been about £65,000, while the freehold land was purchased for £60,000. EXPECTANT.—Lord Norbury, while on circuit, being attacked with a fit of the gout, sent to the Solicitor- General to require the loan of a pair of slippers. "Take them," said the Solicitor to his servant, "with myrespects, as I hope soon to he in his lordship's shoes." ANTIPODEAN WlT.—During a recent debate in the Victoria Legislature a rather good thing was said by ono of the members. An unfortunate loyal Liberal, whose education had been sadly neglected, was reading out a document to the House, and vainly endeavouring to decipher an obscure letter; turning to his next friend, he asked anxiously, "Is that a hem or a ben ? " " Oh, replied his friend, " call it a hen, and move that it lay on the table." THE FRENCH ATLANTIC CABLE.—The manufat ture of the new Transatlantic submarine telegraph cable for the French Company (Societe du Cable Transatlantique Francais, Limited) was, according to the contract with the Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Company (Limited), commenced at the Gutta Percha, Works, Wharf road, City-road, on Monday. It is understood to be intended to submerge the cable next summer, between Brest and the United States, rid the Island of St. Pierre (Gulf of St. Lawrence). The Great Eastern steamship has been chartered by the contractors for the purpose of assisting in the operation, and arrangements are perfected for mooring her in the Medway, where she will be brought round from Liverpool directly after the equinox, so that she may receive the cable as manufactured, and shipped at the contractors' Greenwich works, where the process of putting on the outer covering, or sheathing, is carried on. SEVERE TRIAL FOR THE KING OF PRUSSIA.-- The German journals, in announcing how the King of Prussia was to employ each day during his visit to Dres den, stated that after a review on the 9th his Majesty was to attend a grand banquet in the ancient hall of the palace at Moritsburg, a residence famous for the fetes which Augustus the Strong gave there in honour of the Countess of Konigsmark, the mother of Marshal de Saxe. They then add : " King William will have to undergo a singular ceremony on this occasion. In the chateau there exists a cup made of a stag's skull, still adorned with the horns, and deep as an ancient Gothic vidrecome. This vessel is filled with champagne, and every guest has to empty it as adroitly as he can—a difficult task, howevi r, in which many a drinker has failed. The King of Saxony„ while the guests take their wine, takes note of their address, and draws up a report of the trial in an antique register, which dates from the first days of the Saxon monarchy. The most illustrious names figure in it, and that of Frederick the Great amongst others. The Ger mans, who are fond of pleasantry at times, are curious to know how the conqueror of Sadowa will extricate himself from the difficulty, and whether the misfortune will occur to him, as to so many others, of spilling some of the con tents on his glorious uniform.". , v.,
