The Ist of October has passed over and as yet, we are rejoiced to say, the military surgeons in the Bri tish service remain undegraded. The execution of the infamous and atrocious order issued by the military authorities for the purpose of degrading medical officers of the army, by devolving on them the duties which in civil life are never performed save by the common hangman, has been deferred, and those who aimed at insulting the medical profession generally, by thus wantonly seeking to degrade the military por tion of it, have been signally disappointed. The de ferring the execution of this order enjoining medical officers in the army to mark deserters with the letter D until further orders, is, we consider, tantamount to an absolute rescinding of the obnoxious document, and are content for the present to let matters remain in state q uo ; but should any attempt be made to deg ra d e the medical militar s y u o c ffi cfeurrsthaenrdoirndseurlst, we the medical profession by issui ng h know that the membersofthe medical profession vindicate e es t s h i e o i n r are fully prepared and determined in sulted dignity. The concoctors of this precious docu ment have unwittingly conferred a great boon upon the members of the profession whom they sought to degrade—they have taught medical men the power, the political power which they possess when acting together, and they have forced them to learn the methods by which they may organize themselves so as best to exert that power. We urge the medical men of the kingdom to still continue their organization, it is not alone sufficient to have secured the suspension merely of one obnoxious order on the part of the mili tary executive, there are other grievances to be re dressed, and although the members of the profession may be content to forego indemnity for the past, they should not cease their exertions until they shall have at least secured indemnity for the fu ture. The wrongs of the Assistant-Surgeons of the Navy still continue, in too many instances, unre dressed ; in some cases the resolution of the House of Commons is openly set at defiance by the naval officers in command of her MAJESTY'S ships and vessels, and by the Lords Commissioners of the Ad miralty. whilst, in others, the letter of the resolution is complied with, but its spirit is evaded. Now the members of the profession generally, owe it to their medical brethren in the naval service not to cease their exertions until they shall have secured to every assistant-surgeon not merely a cabin to himself, but that to which he is entitled by his education and by his position in society, the respect and the treatment due to a gentleman. But it is not to the military or naval services that the wrongs of the medical profession are confined, the treatment which the medical officers of poor-law unions bare uniformly received, both from the Poor-law Commis sioners and from boards of guardians, has been such as no member of a learned profession ought to sub mit to. The unfortunate medical officer of a poor law union has to undergo in any one day as much physical labour as any two labouring men in his parish, whilst his pay, after deducting the necessary expenses, is not much more than that of one, and is not nearly that of a journeyman mechanic or handi craftsman, or of a person employed in a factory; he is snubbed by the Commissioners for doing those things which, should he leave undone, he is snubbed by the guardians, whilst the unfortunate medical officer is held by the public responsible for all the faults that may be committed by the other officials. Should the relieving officer neglect or refuse to obey his orders for giving relief, or should the master of the workhouse neglect his duty, the public blame the unfortunate medical officer, who is thus made the scapegoat of the establishment. These are grievances which should be redressed, and which could be redressed if the members of the medical profession were to exert themselves for that purpose. No men possess such power of influencing the votes of the electors both in town and country as do the medical men, and if they exert that influence by ex plaining to their friends and patients, who may chance to be voters, the wrongs and grievances under which the members of the medical profession labour, and by endeavouring to induce those electors with whom they are thus intimately acquainted to exact a pledge from every candidate for their suffrages at the next election that he will, should he be elected, co-ope rate with those Members of the House of Commons who possess the confidence of the profession in endeavour ing to procure a redress of those grievances, there can be no doubt but before the first session of the new Parliament shall have closed the members of the medical profession will be placed in the social position which they are justly entitled to occupy, not only by their talents and education, but by their unwearied devotion in comforting the afflicted and by their unbounded charity to the poor and distressed, for whom they make daily greater sacrifices than all the supporters of all our charitable estabtishments put together. As might readily have been anticipated, a strong memorial has been prepared at Liverpool for presen tation to the Earl of CARLISLE, as Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, calling for the most stringent investigation into the recent extraordinary and al most unaccountable proceedings of the Judge of the County Court of that important town. This docu ment, which has already received numerous and in fluential signatures, contains a simple and straight forward statement of the treatment of Mr. WRITTY by the Learned Judge, which it justly describes as being " pre-eminently harsh, vindictive, and oppressive," while the conduct of the defendant, under all the trying and painful circumstances of the case, was "patient, respectful, and forbearing." It then truly declares that the construction put upon the clauses of the Act (9 and 10 VICTORIA, c. 95, a. 113 and 114), in reference to cases of contempt, is unconstitutional and illegal, and alludes t° "his unprecedented assumption of au thority," and " the temper which he displayed in attempting to enforce that authority," as demon strating that be has not " the moderation and equa nimity" essential to the character of a county court judge, and slightly alludes to the alienation of the trading community, in consequence of the " violent and unexpected measures" resorted to for the purpose n upholdingthatt b t u h al dignity eom p a o r a f t i h v i e s l y c a u ret less,' w which render re of he is suffered to preside therein. metropoli s . protest of impartial of Eog_We are quite satisfied that this the inhabitants of the commercial land will receive the prompt and attention t of the accomplished and amiable noblemana it is addressed, and to which it is so eminenotlwyheonm. titled. We cannot for a moment suppose, that be cause the family of Mr. RAMSHAY had been connected in business relations with that of his noble patron for many successive years, or because it was on the no mination of the Earl of CARLISLE that he received his appointment, there would be any attempt on the part of his present judge to shelter him from the con sequences of his outrageous proceedings. Far from it. i We are convinced that the subject will receive the most and that the ultimate decision will b°ind calm and attentive coneidera . tiou of . that Noble accordance with what his Lordship honestly and conscientiously believes to be the real merits of the case. .We must also emphatically protest against the assertions that his Lordship w as i n fl uence d b y any un d ue favouritism t i t h er in his selection of Mr. RAMSIIAY for the important office, or in his subsequent acquittal from the charges preferred against him. We do not assert that Mr. RAMSHAY'S was the best selection that could be made from among .--17•1147 en Z. r c i gr t S ---7rl CtA___E•l4l: WEDNESDAY the many experienced and talented gentlemen of the northern circuit, who might have been willing to accept the situation, but from what we have been enabled to ascertain from those competent to form a sound and accurate opinion on his pretensions, we believe that if in good health (of mind and body) he was fully qualified for the efficient discharge of its duties, and that he might bear comparison with a large proportion of his judicial brethren with out suffering any injury from the result. Unfortunately, however, his health was ex ceedingly enfeebled, and he got into a state of ner vous excitement that led to a degree of irritability and eccentricity in his conduct, that strongly attracted the public attention, and led to the first complaints and the previous inquiry before the Chancellor of the Duchy. From the charges then preferred he was acquitted, or, at least, it was decided that "nothing had been established to warrant his removal from his situation." Had the Learned Gentleman de rived a salutary lesson from this escape it would have been fortunate for himself. 'Un ha ,ppily, however, he took a different view. He brooded over his supposed wrongs until be lashed himself into a state of_frenzy, and, in the words of the memorial, viewed everything in which his name was at all mixed up " through a distorted and dis tempered medium." He assumed that there was a conspiracy against him, and thought himself bound to crush it, and to vindicate the majesty of the law, attacked in his person. This fatal error induced him to institute those wild proceedings against a highly respectable and innocent individual, to whom he should have felt himself bound in gratitude, if capable of correctly judging how matters stood, in stead of looking on him as a bitter and implacable opponent. The temperate and admirable article which we extracted from the Liverpool Journal in our impression of Monday sufficiently indicates the nature of Mr. WHITTY'S feelings, and affords the best answer to a letter from a correspondent, which, in accordance with his earnest appeal, and with the noble principle of ' audi alteram partem, we have inserted in our columns, although by no means agree ing in the views entertained by our correspondent, or for a moment assenting to the proposition that Mr. WHITTY did anything to merit the treatment which he received. We certainly had no prejudice against Mr. RAMSHAY previous to the account of his proceed ings ; if anything, our leaning was on the other side. But on perusing the account of these proceedings our views were in accordance with what, but for our correspondent's letter, we should have supposed to be the unanimous feeling of every disinterested and im partial person in the entire kingdom, viz., of deep and earnest sympathy with Mr. WHITTY in his un merited persecution, and of the imperative neces sity of affording speedy redress, so far as practicable, to that injured gentleman; and also immediately depriving his oppressor of the extensive powers which he has so shamefully and deplorably perverted: Mr. DISRAELI has made a second appearance before his constituents, and has repeated the opinions which so strongly excited the ire, or, to use an Americanism, " elevated the corruption" of the illustrious PAUL FOSKETT. Aye, and horribile dicta, he has been re ceived with as enthusiastic applause by the sturdy farmers of South Buckinghamshire, assembled at Salt Hill, as had previously been accorded to him by their more northern brethren at Aylesbury. It is thus manifest that the agriculturists of England have ar rived at a correct idea of their true situation, and that, in common with their leaders, they at length perceive the utter inutility of any convulsive and frantic efforts to resuscitate the departed monster monopoly. They now hear—it may be with regret, but also with patience and even approbation—the an nouncement that " protection to a particular class, irre spective of all other classes, is quite out of the question ;" that " it is perfectly clear that the system which has been abrogated, or any system similar to it, cannot be restored unless there is an almost universal feeling in the country, unless the various classes of the country by sharp experience arrive at the conclusion that the principles on which our commercial system is founded are incorrect and injurious ;" and also that "it is quite clear that if this country arrive at that conclusion, it will not be in a haste or hurry." Hear this, ye CHOWLERS and FOSLETTS, and stand aghast with horror. The restoration of protection is ad journed sine die by its most chivalrous and puissant champion, and the "traitor" is greeted with rapturous and enthusiastic applause in what was once one of your strongest holds. 'What can be done to avert the calamity, to restore the impotent agitation, and to prevent our commercial legislation—the public re cognition of free- trade principles, from being regarded as un fait accompli? Cannot GEORGE FREDERICK YOUNG be brought to the rescue? Where are BALL and BENNETT and their illustrious coverires? Some thing must be done, and that right speedily, or the agriculturists may relapse into' common sense, and begin to prepare themselves for the competi tion that must inevitably be encountered. It is a painful, a melancholy fact, but one unhappily but too well founded, that hence forward farmers must bestir themselves, must have a practical knowledge of the business in which they are engaged, and steady application to bring that know ledge into execution, before they can hope for success. Agriculture will no longer be a royal road to wealth ; the farmer cannot hope to devote his time to rural amusements, to hunting, shooting, or sporting, to the total neglect of his farm. If he should try to follow in the footsteps of his pre decessors, practicable only in " the good old times," when they were levying a " black mail" on their compatriots, he must inevitably go to the wall: But with experience, judgment and acti vity, accompanied by a reasonable amount of capital, success is still practicable, and if he cannot acquire wealth very rapidly, he may at least achieve independence and the enjoy ment of every reasonable comfort. What other class in the community is more favourably circumstanced ? Let farmers contrast their positions with those of any of their friends engaged in trading or commercial pur suits, or the practice of the learned professions, and they will find that so far from having cause for re pining, theirs is perhaps the most enviable condition of any. Let them, then, set their shoulders to the wheel, steadily and energetically. Let them remember the evil counsels of the professional agitators, and attend to their own affairs; and if they enter into the po litical arena, let them direct their attention to some thing practical, where they have a prospect of a suc cessful termination to their exertions. SUDDEN DEATH OF COUNT REVENTLOW.—We learn with deep regret that his Excellency Count Revent low, the Danish A m b assador at St. James's, expired sud denly on Monday morning about three o'clock, in the Star Hotel, Glasgow. His Excellency, it appears, had been pay ing a visit to Sir James Matheson, at Lewes, during the last five weeks, and arrived at Glasgow on Saturdayeven ina, accompanied by th e Countess Revent l ow, an d his two daughters, the Ladies Hilda and Malvina Reventlow en route for London. His Ex ce ll ency at that time seeme d t o b e i n good health, and he remained so, we are informed, until Monday morning about three o'clock, when he became suddenly ill, and expired almost instantaneously. Dr. Macfarlane and Dr. Clark were called in without delay, but it was of no avail. So far as could be ascertained without a particular post rnortem exami nat i on of the body, a spasmodic affection of the heart was the immediate cause of death. Count Reventlow has been for a considerable time the Danish Ambassador at the British Court, and was highly respected in that capacity by those with whom his official duties brought him into communication. During Monday fore noon Sir James Anderson and the Danish Consul, Mr. Westenholz, called at the Star Hotel, to offer their services to the Countess Reventlow ; but her Ladyship and her daughters had left for London by the express morning train. The body of the deceased followed by the evening train. GREAT EXHIIIITION.—The Engligh exhibitors of watches and c l ocks yesterday evening held a meeting at the Freemason s ' T avern for the purpose of protesting against certain alle ge d irregularities in the proceedings of the jury appointed to determine the awards in their department. As these awards have not yet been made public, the proper time for action, if good grounds of complaint exist, has not arrived. The meeting, nevertheless, is stated to have been numerously attended, and the censures. pronounced were strong and unanimous. It was resolved to bring the subject before the notice of Lord Granville, as Vice-President of the Royal Commission. EXTRAORDINAR Y LARGE MACKEREL.--A few days since one of the fishing smacks engagedm in the mackerel trade quality, and of off the coast of Dover succeede . capturing a large quan atuv.unayusuallz large all ibited at Mr. quan tity of that fish, of the finest to ondon dimensions, which were dispatched on S by train.

Wh a t is more remarkable, they were perfectly in season, the siz e of the respective roes and the weight of the offal not being greater than ordinary flab. ( nearly f m ou e r tropolis. The length of each exceeded 20 inches LONDON, EVENING, OCTOBER B, 1851. TUE FRENCH. REPU.V.L.W.! We have received tne Paris journals of yeses day. The over-zealous partisans of Louis NAPOLEON BONAPARTH are overstepping the bounds of prudence, and throwing off the mask too soon. One of them, Colonel DE BOISSE, commanding the 6th regiment of the line, has brought upon himself, in consequence of his awkwardness in blurting out the truth, a severe snubbing from the Minister at War. It appears that the colonel, a few days since, issued the following order of the day to his regiment, then in garrison at Meta:— " The Chief of the State, who is not ignorant how much the 6th regiment of the line since 1830 has shown itself devoted to order and the country, does it the honour to call it to Paris. The 6th is the only one of the four regiments charged to practise firing which makes a movement this year. The colonel has made himself responsible to the Prince President that it is worthy in every respect of that unexam pled favour; he did that with the certainty that, under all circumstances, the 6th will justify his promise, carry high its flag, and not compromise the responsibility which its chief has felt pleasure in undertaking. Officers, non-commissioned officers, and soldiers I—`V e will remain men of duty and devotedness—all France may count on our patriotism. Yes, we will march as a single man, and your Colonel, who swears to show you the road, to plant the flag of order on the barricade of anarchy, as formerly he planted, amidst the dead and the dying, bullets and grape shot, that of the nation on the breach of Contantine, only demands of you to avenge him, if he should fall beneath the shots of the parri cides of our beautiful country. This order is to be read at two consecutive appeals. " DE GARDARENB DE BOISSE, 4 4 Colonel commanding the 6th Regiment of the Line." The Minister of War has caused the following " communicated note" on this order to be inserted in the Moniteur de l' Armee of yesterday : " The Minister of War has only known by the news papers the order of the day of Colonel de Gardarens, of the 6th of the line, leaving Meta. The formal expres sion of his dissatisfaction has not been delayed. From this order it might be supposed that the movements of troops are decided out of the pale of the action of the Minister, according to preferences without motive; it might be believed that the Government attributes pecu liar bravery to certain corps. These are two errors. Reasons of service always weigh in the movements of troops, and the Minister of War knows that he can have equal confidence, for the defence of order and the laws in all the corps of the army." The funeral anniversary service for the late Queen HORTENSE was performed yesterday in the church of Rueil. The PRESIDENT of the Republic and the officers of his household, and a lark') number of officers and privates of the Imperial army, were present.: Public securities were again heavy at the Bourse.

SPA IN. Madrid journals of the 2d have arrived. The Heraldo , which had proposed a subscription on behalf of the Spaniards wounded in defending Cuba, has the following announcement : Subscription in favour of the wounded of the Island of Cuba. " His Excellency, the Minister of her Britannic Ma jesty in this city, Lord Howden, as a soldier who has served with the Spanish troops-5,00 0 reels." The name of no other subscriber is given. The Heraldo, in announcing his Lordship's donation, publishes a long article in which it expresses the warmest gratitude to him. A decree, in the Gazette, enacts that the remains of Lieutenant - General ENNA, who was killed in Cuba, ahall be brought to Spain, at the expense of the State, for in terment, and that his wife shall receive a pension of 20,000 reals. Another decree confers the ribbon of the Royal Order of Maria Louisa on the widow. By another decree a credit of 5,000,000 reals is accorded as a supplement to the regular budget of the War department, for purchasing Paixhan guns, and for arming the coasts of the Peninsula and the colonies ; and by another, the Minister of Ma rine is authorised to purchase two steamers of from 100 to 150 horse-power, for the service with Cuba. A royal order, addressed to the Captain- General of Cuba, is also published in the Gazette it gives the warmest commendations to the troops for their conduct in the invasion, and also thanks the in habitants for what they did. It concludes by direct ing him to send a list of persons who may be worthy of receiving recompenses from the QUEEN. The Nation says that it has been decided by the Council of Ministers that the Cortes shall meet on the Ist of November. MADRID BOLSA, OCT. 2.—The Three per Cents. were done at Madrid on the 2d at 36 cash • the Five per Cents., at 16 k; Coupons, at 81; Debt without Interest, 6 5-16. GER3IAN Y. The Official Gazette of Berlin publishes a tele graphic dispatch from Frankfort of the 3d, announc ing that the Germanic Diet has unanimously resolved that Prussia may withdraw her non-German pro vinces from the Confederation, in which they were incorporated in 1848. This decision will, it is sup posed, have the effect of cresting an additional obstacle to the demand of Austria to introduce all her non- German States into the Confederation. On the latter subject the Journal d e Frankfort publishes a note, which intimates that Austria will not for the present insist on her right so to do ' • but it maintains that England and France have no right to make any opposition to the design, as it merely a defensive alliance between two other power. The Prussian Gazette of the 4th contradicts the s t a t emen t of the Cologne G aze tt e an d th e Correspon denttoconsentGovernments of Hamburgh, that Mecklenburgh had refused to respecting her admission to the enter Zollv intore. n negotiations The Bank of Vienna had in hand on the 30th ult. 43,116,121f1. in specie , and the amount of notes in e circulation was 229,268,7301 The economies effected in the War budget of Austria during the present year amount to 15,000,000 florins ; and in the cours e of the present month 80,000 men are to be allowed long furloughs. The own instead of abolishing of its of Hamburgh, the funda mental right of the German people, referred the matter to the Legislative Assembly. That body was equally divided on the subject, and, consequently, the authority, t S h e o n r a i t t y e , o f l e Lubeck, that proposition was negatived. But in a few days the citizens themselves are to meet to decide on it. The Chambers of Bavaria re-assembled on the Ist, but it was expected that several days would elapse before they could seriously proceed to business. M. DE BRUCK, ex-Minister of Commerce in Aus tria, has returned to Trieste, and resumed the direc tion of the Austrian Lloyd's. DENMARK. The National Diet of Denmark was opened at Co penhagen on the 4th by the KING in person. In the KING'S address to the Chambers it is stated " that the Government is exerting its utmost endeavours to have the boundaries of the Monarchy and the succession of the Crown definitely and securely fixed, in which en deavours it has been met in the most friendly manner by all foreign Powers, who continue to be on the best terms of amity with the Danish nation." ITALY. --- Accounts from Leghorn state that two individuals were shot there on the 30th ult., in pursuance of the sentence of an Austrian court-martial. Letters from Florence of the Ist, in the Genea Gazette, state that the communal elections of that city have failed from the abstention of electors. A new election will consequently take place within a fortnight of that date. Letters from Rome in the Risorgimento of Turin, state that the old regulations concerning the Israelites have been revived i—viz., that they cannot travel within the Roman States without a permission from the Inquisition, nor stop in any place without a new permission. The Roman Government has guaranteed six per . cent. upon the capital of 20 millions of Roman scudi (120 millions of francs) for the Rome and Ancona Railway. The line which is to connect Tuscany with Bologna and the Lombardo Venetian provinces is also to be commenced without delay. CLOSE OF THE EXHIBITION. -- A notice has been posted at the doors of the Great Exhibition building in Hyde-park, stating that the Exhibition will positively close to tho public on Saturday next, that the doors will be opened at nine o'clock on that day, instead of twelve, as hitherto on Saturdays, and that on that occasion no wheel chairs will be permitted to enter the building. This last regulation was, no doubt, necessary, in consequence of the large number of visitors who may be expected on the closing day, and in order to prevent inconvenience to the general public. STATE OP TRADE, MANCHESTER, OCT. 7.—Our market exhibits no change to-day, there being an almost complete cessation of business, owing to the alterations of the exchange, and the general preparations for the reception of the Queen.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at 8,000 bales, of which 1,000 American were taken for export, and 1,000 American and 750 Surat on speculation. The market closed tamely. The sales comprised 6,000 American, 1,000 Egyptian, chiefly at 64d., and 1,000 Surat at 2td. to 4d. per lb.—The Share Market was steady, and prices generally well supported. The Produce Markets have opened this week rather heavily again for Sugar, but Coffee and Rice have been in improved demand. Messrs. Wilkinson and Jewesbury give the following report:— " The quarterly sales of Indigo commenced yester day, consisting of 21,389 chests (including 8,586 chests of old goods, bcught in at, or withdrawn from, former sales, and 1,415 chests on second hand). com prising the following, viz. :—Catalogue A, 13,346 chests of Bengal, Oude, &c., 1,216 Madras, 1,047 Kurpab, 6 Bimlapatams, 23 Salem, , 245 Calcutta. Fig. 48 Madras, 4,026 not printed and withdrawn up to the time of sale, and the rest in second hands. The dualities of Bengal are about two-thirds good and fine, and one-third middling and ordinary; the Madras, mostly ordinary, with a very small proportion of good and fine ; the Kurpah one-third good and fine, and two-thirds middling and ordinary $ the Bimlapatam and Salem good middling ; the Oude ordinary. The room presented a very full attendance, but there were but few of the home trade present. After the announcement of 313 chests withdrawn, in addition to those before advertised, the sale opened with a parcel of fine Bengal, of the mark J. and R. W., withdrawn from the July sale, to which strong support was given, but without producing the desired effect; a small parcel of Kurpahs which followed was taken out after trying a few lots at high rates; sub sequently, where there was more disposition to sell, some competition took place, and a fair quantity was sold. The rates ruled for fine Bengal, last sale's prices; consuming sorts about 2d. per lb. lower. Kurpah par to 4d. per lb. higher for good and fine, and par to 2d. per lb lower for middling and ordinary. 33 chests Madras in to-day's sale were withdrawn, the rates required being above their value. 1,159 chests have passed to day, of which 384 were withdrawn." The steamer Clyde has arrived with the West Indian and Mexican mails. Jamaica was healthy again, :gene rally speaking. Trade was dull, but the weather was favourable. An alteration of the " injuriously heavy tonnage dues" was being brought on the tapir by in fluential parties in the island. The Coffee crop in Hayti would be very large. _ _ _ From Mexico there is a remittance of about 41,000 dollars for the dividends, but in other respects no favour able information. The committee of Mexican bondholders have received advices by the Clyde from Mr. Falconnet, dated Mexico, the 3d ult. He had obtained Messrs. Manning and Mackintosh's acceptances, due at various dates up to January, 1853, for the balance due by them to the bond holders, about 250,000 dollars, and had been promised securities to that amount, as soon as Messrs. Manning and Mackintosh should be able to bring them into a tan gible shape. The Governors of the Federal States, who had been called together to meet in Mexico, had not come forward to assist the President's Government, and all his Ministers had, in consequence, resigned. Mr. Ramirez, said to be a man of talent and integrity, has been named Minister of Home and Foreign Affairs, and charged with the formation of a new Cabinet. The Ministry of Finance had been offered to Mr. Estava, but it was not known whether he had accepted. There was tolerable steadiness yesterday afternoon in the rates at which Bills of Exchange were negotiated on the principal continental cities. Ninety days' paper was taken at 12.15 to 18 on Trieste, being higher; but Paris was the turn lower, viz., 25 . 45 to, 478.

TELEGRAPH ACROSS THE ATLANTIC.--A Mr. 11 . e 41 1 , nolds, of New York, proposes to construct a telegraph rnunication across the Atlantic at a cost of 3,000,000 del He thinks the plan practicable and safe, and sets forth col the distance between Cape Canso, above Halifax, 00, 10 1# American coast, and the nearest point in Ireland, near way, is but about 1,600 miles along the banks of Newledig i , land, which are known to extend within 160 miles 0. coast of Ireland, at an average depth of 800 f e et. A this length, consisting of ft,ur wires perfectly insulated 1,0 good gutta percha, of the size proposed, would last huud r 1. 0 of years, as the insulating substance is indestructible 0, water, and has a strength almost equal to iron. Such e ho ir would weigh about 10,000 tons, and would require e`i,„` 1,500 tons of iron anchors. The cost of everything, 11 ,, 00v:`, in complete working order, would be less than 3,o°'' ,0 61 dolls. Such a line would do more to advance intellig i e M: true liberty, and the interests of the people, than suY t , hitherto achieved in the way of " obliterating tune space." , NOTION OF A JUDGE'S DIITY.—A writer 1 11 ;0 1' Daily Wisconsin says :—" When I first came to Wiscorni chanced to meet an enemy of Judge Hubbell; and bo. / 13 Dr A stranger, and no doubt a little inqui s itiv e , I asked hie','.iftr, were the grounds of his dislike to the judge.
