The King of Sardinia arrived at Tortona on the 15th, after having witnessed the military ma noeuvres executed in the vicinity of that town under the command of the Duke of Genoa. His Majesty was received with loud acclamations by the inha bitants. Chevalier de Burger, the new Imperial Lieute nant of Lombardy, arrived at Milan on the 13th. The Corriere Mercantile of Genoa of the 14th announces the arrest of a priest of that town, named Maineri. The police also searched his lodgings very minutely. A letter from Rome of August 31, in the Augs burg Gazette, says :—" It is officially confirmed that thu Governor of Tend has been the victim of popu lar fury. The increasing dearness of bread has produced great uneasiness in the town. Four per sons seized on the Governor and threw him from a window into the street, where the people mal treated him by stuffing his mouth with straw. He died in consequence of the ill treatment which he received. Eight carbineers who hastened to his assistance were obliged to fly from the crowd. A company and a half of infantry have been sent from Rome to Terui to re-establish tranquillity." RUSSIA AND TURKEY. The following is one among many of the placards stuck up in all parts of Constantinople : " 0 most powerful Padishah, for the love of your "gust person, all your subjects are ready to sacrifice their lives, their property, and their families ; but it is 'cur duty to draw from the scabbard the sword of the victorious Mahomet, which you put on in the mosque of 'Youb Ansari, in imitation of your illustrious ancestors id predecessors. Your ministers display hesitation, becau se they are dominated by the passion for plea urea, and the desire not to be deprived of them , A great danger menaces us. In such a state of things, may God Preserve us all ! Your victorious army and all the nation demand absolutely to combat for the defence of your in contestable rights. 0 Padishah ! open your ears and listen to the voice of your children H !' " Eyoub Ansari is an illustrious personage in Mus !Allman history. A contemporary of Mahomet, he Powerfully aided in the propagation of Islamism, and was killed in the first expedition of the Mus sillmans against the Greek empire. , The news received from the camp of Schumla are (0 the effect that the soldiers were an imated with the most warlike spirit, but that unfortunately good °facers were wanting. At Schumla the artillery Well horsed consisted of 250 pieces, without count-. i ng those of the other camps and the forts. The Constantinople correspondent of the Con stitutionnel says— ,, The Porte either from convic tion or neces ity is irrevocably fixed in its resolu tion to maintain its modifications, whatever may happen, and not in any way to go beyond the limit of the concessions which it has only made out of deference to its august allies." He adds that— "ln the present state of things, it would be im- Possible for the Porte to go farther than it has already done. The excitement of the people goes on increasing, and it has arrived at that point, that the slightest hesitation on the part of the Ministers would place the throne of the Sultan and public security in the greatest dan g er. N ume rous pla cards are every night posted up in the streets of Constantinople. In one of h amongst other thin gs , th at at voiceth t e emit of is said, amongstthe saisove reign, the soldiers of the redif have quitted their families and their fields at the moment of the har vest, and that they will not return to their homes without having fought to revenge the insults offered to their country. The Egyptians, on their side, who leave for th e camp o f Omer Pacha, de clared to the Sultan, during the fête which he gave to their officers, that they had come to fight, and that they would not return to Egypt until they had done so. The exasperation of the country against Russia shows itself in every way, without their appearing any means of appeasing it except by war. The Ministers themselves are convinced of it, and although well aware of the weakness of Turkey, which would not allow her to carry on successfully a struggle with Russia for any length of time, have now decided on incurring the chances of it, hoping that Europe, which has encouraged them in their resistance, will not abandon the Porte." The Journal de Constantinople of the 4th con tains the following, in reference to the relations between the Porte and the hospodars "In reply to the recal sent them, the princes stated to the Sublime Porte that the divans ad hoc having sup plicated them not to depart from the principalities, in the interest of the country, they would remain at their Post until the imperial government had come to a deci• !ion concerning the situation which they submitted to being ready, however, to conform to that decision, Whatever it might be, as soon as it should be notified to t hem. On Sunday last the council of ministers delibe rated on the reply of the princes, and after having taken t he orders of the Sultan, decided that the imperial go 11..ernment, full of solicitude for the principalities, and taking into consideration the reasons laid before it, con sented not to insist on the order of recal given to the princes, provided they were completely free to perform the ribute of these provinces. If not, the imperial go ''ernment would take such measures as should appear to . suitable to protect its right and its dignity. This de elsino, marked with the impress of great wisdom, was d ispatched on Tuesday to Bucharest and Jassy by the Galatz steamer, and we have no doubt that, through gratitude, the princes will do all they can to conform to It scrupulously." Several boyards have been arrested at Galatz, in hatin g been found in their houses. Amongst them 7ere copies of letters to Omer Pacha, informing . of the minutest details on the state of the Russian army in the principalities ; and one from A mer Pacha, directing them to enrol as many f oreigners as possible, as he hoped soon to be able t o Second them openly." A letter from Bucharest of the sth says :—" Ac- C ording to all the indications received up to this • 311 otoent, it appears certain that the Russians are to a king preparations to pass the winter in the ~t'L l ncipalities. The troops will not leave be fore n ext spring. In Bulgaria the Turks ca n no lon g er encamp in the open air, for the winter h as alread y arrived., In three weeks the Russians wi ll be ob liged to change their tents for barracks." The Peg Ampt Gazette of Frankfort, under Z i te of Vienna 15th, says :—" In rejecting the 7 :, ° , c hfications introduced by the Diva n in the pro -Ilie' of Austrian mediation, the Ca binet of St. e tersburgh formally declared that the army of v ec tiPation in the principalities would retire on the o e l'Y day that the acceptance by the Ottom an Porte f he non-modified note should be rec eived." General Prim has departed for Schu mla. He Wa s b accompanied by the officers of his missio n, and his mihmanda Savfet Effendi, one of the profes sors of the Polytechnic School.

HER MAJESTY'S FLEET AT QUEENSTOWN. The arrival of upwards of twenty vessels of the royal navy in the somewhat secluded naval station • of Queenstown has made a great excitement among .the inhabitants. Such a spectacle was never be fore - witnessed by the present generation. Queenstown has long been known as a naval station, and seems, indeed, to have been fashioned by the hand of nature expressly for the purpose. Here the river Lee, just before mingling its waters with the ocean, broadens out into . a wide and ample estuary, deeply indenting the land towards the south, where, however, finding no outlet through the high and rocky barrier that intervenes, it turns northward again, and at last finds a narrow channel seaward through a gap in the hills to the west. The result of this configuration is, that the estuary is land-locked in the ample embrace of high ground on all sides, except at the entrance to the westward, which is not more than a mile and a quarter across, from point to point, at the narrowest part of it, while, as if to complete the security of the shelter, Spike Island lies opposite to, and not more than a mile from, the narrows, acting as a natural breakwater against any sea that a west or south-west wind might send through the mouth of the harbour. It must not be forgotten that the entrance is as easy as the harbour is secure. There are no shoals nor sunken rocks in the way; and the largest vessel in the British navy, entering at all times of the tide, may be certain of finding secure anchorage within. While nature has been thus bountiful to the place, in protecting it against the war of the ele ments, the resources of art have not been neglected to seal it against the hostile approach of the fo reigner. As already mentioned, the width of the channel at the narrowest point is only a mile and a quarter. At that part two batteries have been erected, nearly opposite to each other, Fort Cam den and Fort Caroline, each mounted with upwards of 30 heavy guns ; while a third battery is also erected on the seaward side of Spike Island. So have come down ; and the river steamers which I are plying round the harbour and making the tour of the fleet are crowded, deck and paddle-boxes, with passengers. The boatmen, too, are driving quite a brisk trade, in taking parties of ladies and gentlemen off to the ships, which, through the courtesy of the officers, are open for general in spection. The Duke of Wellington is the favourite vessel selected for inspection, upwards of 200 boats, all crowded with passengers, having been alongside of her at one time in the course of the day. A great many of the officers and men of the fleet are also ashore, so that the little town is quite alive with bustle and animation. Up to five o'clock on Sunday there was no ap pearance of the other vessels of the squadron. It is still uncertain when Sir James Graham and his colleagues will be here ; some say his visit will be postponed till Tuesday (this day). that, supposing a hostile fleet to be rash enough to attempt the passage, they would be exposed to the destructive fire of two forts on each flank ; while the guns from Spike Island would pound them in front. It may safely be said that the defences of Queenstown are complete. The people are dissatisfied with the compara tively small use to which the Government of the country have hitherto turned this magnificent har bour. Lying out of the usual track which our ships of war traverse, it has not been frequented by them with that frequency, or iu those numbers, that the security of its roadstead might be sup posed to invite. But now that the great question of a western packet station has sprung up, and in creases in importance every day, the inhabitants are making a vigorous effort to secure the prefer ence of the authorities for this port, and they are not without hope that the expected visit of the Lords of the Admiralty has reference to this very question ; or, at least, that when they come here and examine, with their own eyes, the splendid natural capabilities of the port, they will be impressed with a due sense of its value, and of the necessity of conferring upon Queenstown the boon which they so anxiously desire—that of being the point of departure for the mail packets to America. It is well known that the contest has hitherto been between Queens town and Galway. But the people here say that though Galway is some seventy or eighty miles more to the westward, and by that distance, there fore, the nearer to the western shores of the At lantic, yet that advantage is much more than counterbalanced by the inconveniences attending the approach to Galway Harbour, which, in winter especially, is dangerous to approach in certain states of the weather, and might oblige the packets to keep off for days together ; whereas Queenstown can be made at all times and in all weathers ; so that in point of fact the mail could be transmitted with nearly as much speed, and with far greater regularity and accuracy on the average, from Queenstown, as it could be from Galway. It is now considered that the presence of the Lords of the Admiralty in the harbour, where they may see with their own eyes the advantages it possesses, both by nature and art, is the harbinger of better and brighter days, both for the town and its port. Among the other Government works at present in progress here, there is a pier, which has been in the course of construction! for some time, and is just beginning to rear its head above high-water mark. When finished, it will serve as a landing-place for passengers, but its principal use as a Govern ment work will be to facilitate the supply of water to her Majesty's ships that may call here, as pipes are laid down from a tank at the top of the hill, which is supplied from some springs in the vicinity —thus superseding the tank at Haulbowline, which is supplied only by rain -water, and is unable iu consequence to supply such a large fleet as is now collected. As this pier has now attained a height when mortar may be safely used in its construction, it was thought a good stroke of policy by the Cork. town council to invite the First Lord of the Ad miralty to lay the first stone on the occasion of his approaching visit, and afterwards to accept of a banquet to be given him in honour of the event, and some of the councillors were indiscreet enough to add that they would take the opportunity of calling his attention to the capabilities of the har bour. They had reckoned without their host, however. The invitation was forwarded, and in due course an answer was received from Sir James Graham, intimating, as we understand, that he would be very happy, if his public duties would allow, to assist at the ceremony of laying the stone, but that he must decline to attend the subsequent banquet. Four vessels have been for some days in the harbour—the London, the Blenheim, the Impe rieuse, and the Terrible paddle-steamer, whicni ast is at present doing duty as flag-ship for Sir Wm. Carroll, the port-admiral. So matters remained till about midday on Saturday, when the towering hulk of the Prince Regent, bearing the flag of Admiral Corry, blue at the wizen, was seen enter ing the harbour. All her sails were furled, and as sh is unfitted with a screw apparatus, she was towed slowly in by one of the attendant steamers, and anchored near the centre of the " man-of-war roads," as nearly as possible on the spot where she anchored when here last year. She was followed soon afterwards by the still more gigantic form of the Queen, 120 guns, which was also towed in with all sails furled by one of the steamers. Several of the smaller vessels followed in her wake, and then there was a cessation of arrivals for about an hour, when near two o'clock a salute fired outside the harbour, and replied to by the Port-Admiral's ship, the Terrible, announced that the Duke of Welling ton was entering. The arrival of this ship excited the greatest interest of any, and as many persons had by this time come down from Cork by the mid day steamers, the heights above Queenstown were covered with people, and boats were swarming in the harbour, all anxious to catch a glimpse of the magnificent ship as she came round Spike Island, when her proportions came full into view. She anchored farthest outside of anv of the squadron. She was closely followed by the Agamemnon and the Arrogant, all three propelled by their own screw -machinery, and they anchored near each other. The rumour now in town is, that the other vessels are cruising outside the harbour, awaiting the arrival of Sir James Graham and the Lords of the Admiralty, who are expected here in the Black Eagle, though it is not known with certainty what time they may arrive. When the Black Eagle makes her appearance, it is said, the vessels outside will form her escort into the harbour. The ships now assembled are as follows : The Prince Regent, 90 guns, bearing the flag of Admiral Corry, and commanded by Captain Hut ton. The Duke of Wellington, 131 guns, screw, Com modore Martin. The Queen, 120 guns, Captain Mitchell. The London, 90 guns, Captain Eden. The Agamemnon, screw, 90 guns, Captain Sir Thomas Maitland. The Blenheim, screw, 60 guns, Captain Hender son. The Imperieuse, screw, 50 guns, Captain Watson. The Arrogant, screw, 46 guns, Captain Fre mantle. The Amphion, screw, 34 guns, Captain Key. The Tribune, screw, 30 guns, Hon. Captain Car negie. The Highflyer, screw, 26 guns, Captain Moore. The Terrible, paddle, 22 guns, Captain M'Cle verty. 22 guns, Captain Goldsmith. The Sidon, paddle The Valorous, paddle, 1.5 guns, Captain Buckle. The Leopard, paddle, 15 guns, Captain Gifford. The Desperate, paddle, 8 guns, Captain Cham bers. The Vulture, paddle, 6 g uns, Captain Gl asse . Among the vessels expected are La Hogue, the St. Jean d'Acre, the Edinburgh, and th e Odin steam-frigate. It is not certainly known what manoeuvres, or, indeed, whether any, are to be practised by the fleet. The intentions of the Admiralty in sending them here at a time when they themselves visit the port on their tour of inspection, have hitherto been k ep t w ithintheir own breast ; and, as a consequ ence , all sorts of rumours are afloat. The people, how ever, have determined that, whatever may be the indecision as to the displays intended for their gra tification, no uncertainty shall exist on the , point of their readiness to fête and amuse their naval visitors. The weather during the last few days has been delightful. Many thousands of people from Cork SPAIN. M. Soule left Paris yesterdaylevening on his way to Madrid. The deposition of the Queen is a topic pretty generally discussed in political circles at Madrid, and persons who have been hitherto no very warm friends of Marshal Narvaez express a wish for him to return and place himself at the head of affairs, as he perhaps, is the only man who can save the tottering throne. The Queen mother is expected back to Madrid the end of this month or the beginning of October. AUSTRIA. An English company has offered to establish a submarine telegraph between the lonian Islands and some point on the Austrian coast. Proposi tions on the subject have been made to the Austrian Cabinet. Should the telegraph be established, the news from the East would arrive two days sooner. PRUSSIA It is said the King has determined not to go to Ohnhtz to confer with the two Emperors, on the ground that, under existing circumstances, such a step on his part would have too much eclat. The life of Radowski is despaired of. HOLLAND. OPENING OF THE STATES-GENERAL. Yesterday the States-General were opened at the Hague by the King of Holland in person. In the same evening's Sun we published the royal speech extenso, having been enabled to accomplish that extraordinary almost unprecedented feat by means of the Electric Telegraph Company (Loth bury), who have a direct line of wire communica tion between the Hague and the metropolis. The speech reached us within one hour and forty minutes after it was concluded. Too much praise cannot be awarded to the company for the wonder ful rapidity and accuracy with which the transmis sion of the dispatch was effected. The speech was as follows : GENTLEMEN, Again, after a short time, I see myself in the midst of you. With pleasure I address myself to the Representatives of a people who give me the most decided and cordial proofs of fidelity and attachment. Now that you are going to re commence your ordinary labours I may repeat the assurance that I continue to entertain the most friendly relations with the other Powers. During the last month I have received proofs of interest which I highly appreciate. The pacific policy followed by Government gives it every opportunity not to neglect anything for the extension of free commercial relations between the Netherlands and other States. St. St. St. St. The naval and military forces still continue to perform their duties in a satisfactory manner, so far as their limited means admit. Our naval forces are seen in various seas, thus aiding to establish our relations, and to protect our national flag and navigation. Experience shows more and more the necessity of extending the manoeuvres and exercise of the army on the one hand, by keeping the mili tia under arms, and on the other by uniting the forces together. The position of the Colonies and the Govern ment possessions in the othei parts of the world is generally satisfactory. The tranquillity of the interior of the island of Sumatra has been dis turbed, but it has been restored by trifling efforts on the part of our forces. In the same way, also, we may trust that an end will soon be put to the renewed troubles of the Chinese in Borneo. I deplore the frightful ravages caused by the earthquakes and the actions of the sea in the Malacca Islands. From the measures taken by the Government, and the assistance of the public, this calamity has been considerably lessened. The great works un dertaken for the improvement of our principal rivers continue to be actively carried on. The present results are highly satisfactory. Agriculture, manufactures, and industry are in a favourable condition. The spirit of enterprise de velopes itself more and more among the people, inducing them to give their attention to various new enterprises, by which the communications by sea and land will be much augmented, and which will give to agriculture new territories to cultivate. Where the general interest requires it, the efforts of the people are supported by the Government. The works for connecting the Netherlands with the neighbouring states extend more and more. The railways already conceded approach com pletion. Applications for new concessions are en courged as much as possible. The electro-magnetic telegraphic lines are in creased and continually improved. The lately com pleted line to England, undertaken by private in dividuals, is of the highest interest for our commerce. In rejoicing at the great success of the magnifi cent enterprise of draining the Haarlem lake, we may also be gratified at the successful sale of the redeemed lan. So far as an opinion can be formed on the partial reports received, the harvest can only be reckoned upon as an average one. Although the uneasiness caused lately by this state of things seems to have been somewhat exag gerated by some people, I have, however, taken measures to suppress the very trifling impediments which opposed the free importation of the principal articles of food. Commerce, navigation, and ship buiincrease.lding b ar r a e Tnh a c l eh l e p fia 1. 3 :o oa s fn p tc e he r i es n public f th t h i s e y w e e e o a l r i f i a . n r t e r y c o a n r ti e n i u n e a t n o equally desirable position. The hopes which we had of the favourable issue of last year have not proved fallacious. We have every reason to expect that the present service will also be satisfactory. Unforeseen circumstances have prevented the entire completion of the laws for reducing taxa tion. New propositions for the reduction of the Na tional Debt will soon be submitted to your de liberation. This session will, as I trust, and as it is the serious desire of my Government that it should, afford the opportunity of settling legislative ques tions. All our efforts will tend to one and the same end—to assure by every means in our power, and with the blessing of Divine Providence, the wel fare of our dear country. I now declare the session of the States-General to be opened. The King concluded his address at twenty-five minutes past one. - - THE BISHOPRIC OF GLASGOW.—The Hon. and Rev. R. Liddell, M.A., brother to Lord Rs,vensworth, and incumbent of St. Paul's church, Knightsbridge, is likely to be appointed to the bishopric of Glasgow, in the room of Dr. Trower, resigned.

THE LATE COLONEL BALVAIRD. —The deceased gen tleman was engaged in most of the famous actions of the last war, in several of which his pers ona l prowess and gallantry are matter of historical record. C o l one l Balvaird entered the army in March, 1803—the dates of his commissions being, as lieutenant, April 17, 1804 ; as captain, May 16, 1805; as major, Nov. 22, 1813; as lieutenant-colonel, June 21, 1817 ; and a s co l one l , Jan. 10, 1837. Through the Peninsular w ar h e served with the Rifle Brigade. For the battles of Nivelle and Nive, he received a gold medal and a clasp ; and the silver war medal, with six clasps, for the battles of Busaco, Fuentes d'Onor, Ciudad Rodrigo, Salatnan , .%, and Pyrenees. In each of these battles the deceased distinguished himself ; and, with the Rifles, took part in almost all the hard fighting which that celebrated corps w en t t h roug h . H e w a s also present at the siege of Copenhagen. At Badajoz he was severely wounded. PROGRESS OF THE CHOLERA. The Report of the General Board of Health upon cholera in Newcastle and the neighbourhood is as follows : NEWCASTLE. Cholera. Diarrhoea. 17th lOl ISth (up to 12 p.m.) 93 GATESHEAD. Total deaths from 2nd to 17th. Gateshead Heworth Whisk ham Winlaton 167 195 The proportion of the mortality in corresponding pe riods of the outbreak of 1831 and 1353 is as follows : NEWCASTLE 1853. During the first 19 days (from 31st August to 18th September) there have been Deaths from cholera and diarrhoea 1831. During the first 19 days in 1831 9th De cember to 27th) there were 19 days (1853).. 19 days (1831).. ............... 557 ............... 91 Excess in 1853 The mortality for Saturday, it will be seen, is but little in excess of that of the day before. The complete record for Sunday has not yet reached London. A very important steps has been taken to-day by the authorities in London. It has been found that, in a part of Newcastle called Sandgate, 4,000 people are living in a state of such filth, overcrowding, and absolute want of the common est convenience for either decency •r cleanliness, that the only hope of effectually checking the progress of the epidemic among them, is to remove them from the locality. The inspector of the General Board of Health has recommended acting on the experience of 1849, when in the small town of Mevagissey, in Cornwall, where the habitations of the poor are closely packed, and where the whole site is described as one mass of filth which could not be removed in time to avert the most disastrous consequences, the inspector advised the im mediate removal of the population. In thisinstance there was no local means of providing houses of refuge ; but the Board of Ordnance, on the application of the General Board of Health, kindly granted the use of tents, in which 360 of the population were accommo dated. Besides these, upwards of 600 people left the locality, and dispersed themselves elsewhere. Amongst the people drafted into the tents not a single case of cholera occurred, whilst 126 additional cases took place amongst the population which remained in the houses. There were no means of obtaining accurate information as to the 600 of the population dispersed, but it was reported generally that they experienced similar immu nity. Another consequence of this great thinning of the population, amounting to the withdrawal of nearly one-half of the whole inhabitants, was that the fatality was diminished in a greater ratio among those who were left. Tents were supplied by the Board of Ordnance in several other instances, at the request of the General Board of Health, with similar beneficial results. Application has accordingly been made, on Mr. Grainger's representation, to the War-office and the Board of Ordnance. The latter board have promptly sent the order for the immediate despatch of 200 tents, and the former office promise the aid and. co-operation of an experienced officer. The directions and regulations of the General Board Health, under the order in Council, are prepared, and will be printed for issue by to-morrow. In reply to objections expressing apprehensions from being tented out during this weather, it was stated that at Chobham, during excessively wet weather, the sick ness amongst the troops was less than usual in barracks, and that, on occasions of epidemic, troops had been re moved from barracks to tents always with great advan tage, where the site of the tents was good. The following is from Newcastle yesterday at noon : —We have the finest morning that we have had during i the week past. The atmosphere is clear, and a fine 1 breeze is sweeping the town from the west. The deaths, it will be seen, ran up to 110 on Saturday evening, the cases having been very sudden and violent during the afternoon. - Tents are - being erected on the Town Moor this morning, to which people from infected districts will be removed. The church-yard of All Saints', St. Andrew's, St. Nicholas, and St. John's, have been closed by the churchwardens, the necessity of which may be appreciated from the fact that in St. John's yard, in Cie midst of a populous neighbourhood, during last week a grave was made 23 inches deep to contain a coffin 22 inches high. St. Ann's, Jesmond Cemetery, St. Paul's, and Westgate Cemetery are open. The guardians have appointed two additional gravediggers to each of the three first-named places, so that the poor may be interred in decency. Dr. Gavin has been sent down by the Board of Health to relieve Mr. Grainger. Dr. Gavin was to visit the infected districts this morn ing, to close those dwellings which he considers unfit for human habitation. The following are the deaths in each district during the past two days : SATURDAY. Cholera. Diarrhoea. Total. All Saints' 23 3 26 St. Nicholas' 32 1 33 St. Andrew's Byker l2 1 13 Westgate 101 9 SUNDAY. Cholara. Diarrhoea.

On Saturday Mr. Pattison registered 31 deaths ; 19 yesterday ; and to-day, down to about half-past 11 o'clock, 14 deaths. SHIELDS (YESTERDAY FORENOON). There has been one fatal case at South Shields this morning. A little boy, aged six years, was taken out of St. Stephen's Church last evening, during divine service, and died during the night. A seaman belonging to the Amagis, of Harwich, died after 14 hours' illness, in the vessel, in South Shields harbour, on Saturday night ; his name is Jonathan Lord. Another seaman was ill, but he has recovered. The vessel was brought down from Newcastle. Under the Common Lodging-house Act, the inspector in South Shields has reduced the inmates ' one-half in those he thought thoroughly clean. He closed two others. The process of washing the back lanes and alleys with thousands of tons of salt water from the Tyne is being proceeded with : a large force o` men are engaged with the river engine for the purpose. About a score of men are also engaged whitewashing I am happy to say that the poor people are heartily as sisting them. LIVERPOOL. The Liverpool Albion says the several cases of cholera which have occurred at the German "Emigrant's Home," Moorfields, have caused some uneasiness to be manifested in the populous district in which it is situated. An in spection made by ourselves on Saturday night enables us to assure the public that there is no cause for fear, as far as the arrangements and condition of the Home are concerned. No cases of cholera have occurred since those reported to the health committee, and it will be remembered, the sufferers in both instances had just arrived from Hamburg, where they were attacked by the disease. The health of the town is in an unusually satisfactory condition ; the number of deaths registered during the past fortnight being less than has been known in a similar period for some time past. Between two and three hundred German emigrants are expected to arrive at the Home, in Moorfields, during the week. EDINBURGH. The Scotsman says there is reason to fea r th a t cholera has at length made its appearance in this city. Last evening it was reported to the city paro chial board that a young woman, residing in Maconochie's close, Cowgate, had been attacked 'oy the disease, and, on examination by the medical officer, she was at once removed to the cholera hospital in the Infirmary. The case presented all the appearance of Asiatic cholera ; and such it has been pronounced. It may possibly be only a very bad case of ordinary cholera ; and as this is the only one of the sort which has yet occurred, there is still room for hope that the scourge has not actually broken out here. tut, looking at the fact that it is fast spreading hi England, no time should be lost in adopt ing the requisite sanitary precautions with reference to our own city. IRELAND. A Privy Council was held at the Castle on Sa turday evening, at which were present the Lord- Lieutenant, the Lord Chancellor, Baron Greene, Sir Thomas Estnonde, Sir Edward Blakeney, and Judge Moore. An order in council was agreed upon, putting in force throughout all Ireland immediately, and for the next six months, the act 11th and 12th of Victoria, "for the removal of nuisances and prevention of con tagious endemic and epidemic diseases." An Extraor dinary Gazette, containing a proclamation to the fore going effect, was issued on Saturday night. As yet there has been no well-authenticated case of Asiatic cholera having appeared in Dublin. The common, or English cholera, is, however, rather prevalent, and no one can say how soon the dreaded real enemy may be upon M. TRE .t3tEDITE.RR. Ulf. ' The Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Com pany's chartered steamer City of London, Captain Jahn Cargill, arrived at Southampton last night, with dates * from Constantinople, Aug. 27 , Smyrna, Sept. 2 ; Mal Sept. 6 ; Gibraltar, Sept. 11.

The Levant news brought by this steamer has been anticipated by intelligence via Malta and Marseilles. She passed the combined fleets, which were lying in Besika Bay, Unr-Bellerophon being moored abreast the town of Tenedo, on account of fever being still on hoard. From Gibraltar oar accounts are to the 11th inst. The French steamer Honlleur, 20 days from Nantes, and two from Lisbon, arrived on the 6th inst.

THE NEW MAIL STEAM -SHIP SOLEA'T.-lx• TRAORDINARY SPEED. This new mail (paddle) steam-ship, built for the Wee India Company by the Messrs. White, of Cowes, of 1,800 tons, with oscillating engines of 400 horse-power by Messrs. Miller, Ravenhill, and Salkeld, of Blackwall and Newcastle, was tried in Stokes Bay, for the purpose of sending to the Government surveyor the result of her steaming powers. There were on board Captain Liot, inter-colonial in spector and manager ; Captain Vincent, R.N., super. intendent to the company ; Mr. G. Mills, engineer to ditto ; Messrs. Waterman and Hughes, Government inspector s ; Captain Austen, R.N., Admiralty super intendent of packets ; Messrs. Ravenhill and Salkeld, constructors of engines belonging to the ship ; Lieu tenant Austin, R.N., nav a l exam i ner , & c . Upon completing her four first runs, the result was as follows : Time. Knots. 4.31 ......... 13.284 4.10 ......... 14.400 4.38 ......... 12.950 3.59 ......... 15.063 Showing an average of 13.945, or little less than 14 knots per hour. Revolution of Engi ne . 20 20 20 20 Thus giving the surprising average of nearly 14 knots or 16.148 statute miles an hour. This is a most extra ordinary speed from the proportion of horse-power to tonnage which the Solent possesses, and fully maintains the increasing reputation which the eminent firm of Miller, Ravenhill, and Salkeld has achieved in the On dine, Llewellyn, Prince Arthur, sea-going vessels, and their matchless river boats, New Star, Jupiter, and Mars. There can be no doubt that the Solent is by far the fastest vessel belonging to the Royal Mail Company, and of her tonnage the fastest ship of her class afloat. SCREW STEAMING.—The Peninsular and Oriental Com pany's screw steam-ship Cadiz was also taken a trial in Stokes Bay, having had the common screw replaced in the stead of Griffith's patent. The result attained at this trial was 11.597 knots, or one knot more than the speed gained by the last trial of Griffith's screw-pro peller. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALTUS -MONDAY. The remarks contained in our report of the partial settlement which took place at Doncaster were fully justified by the business which was transacted at the Corner to-day—the pecuniary supply was for the most part equal to the demand. In a:few instances a little breathing time was asked for, and it was granted with a ready compliance, which showed the resources of the applicants were to be de , pended upon, although not immediately available. One of the city division, it is said, was " hit, and gone," but eventually with him things may not be quite so bad as rumour paints them. Yery little betting came under notice until late in the afternoon.
