HOWARD, burgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet street, has introduced an entirely new description of ARTI FICIAL TEETH ,tixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the original by the closest observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication ; and that Mr. Howard's improvement may be within the reach of the most econo mical, he has fixed the charges at the lowest scale possible.

The Mon treal papers are severe upon the banks in that city, and I doubt not the same tale will be to'd all eve: the province ; but still it is satisfactory to know that every one of the great banlaitig institutions Canada enjoys the confidence of the com munity, and hopes are entertained that, in suffi cient time before the close of the navigation to al few of our surplus pro:ince being shipped for Europe, they will again be in a position to offer neosssary accommodation to the large mercantile exporting houses, who are now seriously affected by the impossibility of obtaining the discount they ab solutely require. What is wanted here is a bank of issue, or of accommodation, such as Mr. Hin - ks, seine years ago, proposed to establish. Our mer chants now see the great advantage such an institu tion would be to basiness ; but, as is usually the case, they recognise too late its utility. lam in cliued to believe that 1 - •efore long the necessities of our commerce will cause the people to demand from the Legislature the carrying into effect of Mr. Hincks ;- enlightened project for the facilitating of taisiness, and the s..herue will not, it is to be hoped, he opposed by the existing banking institutious of the country. The whole crops of the season are now locked up for want of proper banking accommodation.

Nugent, adjutant of the Royal En gineers, whose examination was concluded the pre vious day, was recalled, and in answer to the pre sident stated that the prisoner was first placed under arrest on the Bth of September by order of Col. H. Sandham, the commanding officer of the Royal Engineers. The witness further etated that although the prisoner was several times absent from parade he did not report him until lie embo died the whole in one general report. Capt. H. Y. D. Scott, superintendent of surveying and prac tical astronomy at the Royal Engineers' establish ment, Chatham, was the next witness. He stated that the prisoner was frequently absent from th) officers' hall of study, and produced the daily re. ports of the attendance of officers in which the pri soner was frequently returned as absent. C.)l. H. Sandham, director of the Royal Engineers' est t blishment, was also examined in support of the charges against the prisoner. At 4 o'clock the Court' adjourned till this day. On Tuesday upwards of 300 recruits joined the Indian &pots at Chatham. Yesterday a party of non-commissioned officers joined the Indian battalions a 4; Chatham, from the school of musketry at Hythe, for the purpose of assisting in the instruction of the large number of troops who are daily arriving at that garrison in the use of the Enfield rifle. During the absence of Brigade-Major C. S. S. E. Gordon from Chatham, the duties of brigade-major are ordered to he performed by Captain J. J. Bourchie r, 52d Light Infantry. The New Military Hospital at Sheerness, built by Messrs. Kirk and Parry, has been opened. Captain Leonard, Woolwich division of Royal Marine Light Infantry, has obtained permission from the Board of Admiralty to retire on half-pay under medical certificate, and First Lieut. Willson, of the Portsmouth division, has been appointed Captain in his stead, while Second Lieutenant Sims, of the Woolwich division, has been appointed First Lieutenant. Quartermaster Thomas Cooper, Royal Marine Light Infantry, promoted in July 1856, at Wool wich, for meritorious conduct, has, m consequence of his long and faithful services, been permitted to retira on the ray of 10s. par day, with the nominal rank of Captain.

" T;:e month of o.:toi)er is passing rapidly away— , hardly six weeks of navigation remai❑ to U 9. No por tton of our vast crop has yet been ; none of it has yet left our ports. And what if the present state of things shall continue, winter come upon us without r€- lief, and the entire crop be left in the granaries to await the opening of navigation next spring Are we told the railways can take it during the winter ?—the railways have not capacity to c.irry it ; and if they had, the co=t of transport at the low prices now ruling would forbid their aid being available. Unless a large portion of the crop goes forward by shipping before the close of navi gation, inevitably the vast bulk of it must remain unsold and unproductive for six months to come. Then what follows I The farmer cannot pay the merchant and the mechanic ; these cannot pay the importer and manu facturer ; and they, in thenr turn, cannot ply the banks. The whole Cana lion fabric rests on agriculture. Get out the crop—sell it—and the whole machinery moves ; leave the crop in the barns, and the entire sys tem is stagnant. . _ The Victory, guard ship, Captain George Henry Seymour, C.B.—Although this time honoured ship is in dock repairing, the anniversary of the most memorable naval engagement on record, and the death of England's greatest" naval warrior, was not forgotten on board. At an early hour the good old ship was decorated with unon jacks, ensigns. and laurels, from stein to stern. Her figure IP2ad had supports of the best bunting, crowned with laurel. The old salts belonging to the Victory dined together, and fought their bathes afi • 11). One hundred shipwrights are to be withdrawn from the Topaz, building at Devonport, and placed on the Aboukir, 90, screw, to hasten her repairs, and clear No. 5 dock. Twenty engineer fitters are to be discharged from Keyham, their services not being required at present. Vie le an from a private letter that the screw steamer Carth , ge, which left Kingstown on the let of August with a portion of the 38th regiment, under the command of Major Farrer, was coaling at St. Helena on the let of September. The Carthage had experienced a succession of head-winds since her departure from St. Vincent's. No news from England had been received at St. Helena later than the Ist of June, and the first intelligence of the Indian revolt was communicated by the Carthage. A Malta correspondent, uritaig on the l6th instant, says : " We a . ie persuaded that all that is now wanted is harmonious and united action by the banks to release the crop and enable all parties to meet their indebtedness by the only means within their command. Nor should this be difficult of arrangement. The solvency of any banking institution in the country—the ability of every one of them to meet all demands is beyond a question. Why cannot they come to an arrangement that a certain axed proportion of specie shall be retained by each bank according to circulation out—that a certain rate of accommodation shall be extended to the public ac cording to capital--anti that draf7s on London shall be received in payment of balance ! Let the presidents and cashiers of the several banks agree on some such basis as , this, and all fear of financial troubles in Canada will be at an end. But let the present fear of each other con tinue a few weeks longer—let them continue to strive who can squeeze the hadest and draw heaviest on their andcn:ui neighbours—and ueras—re before.a nnedWit we w no hi r le th it e i l s .n y d e u t c t e i m m e e n . s Tie t palliatebaia li se s f u N c h e New course .: r r ske here o e r r c e e d w h sl3 : O w o i o g , b o t o O h a I v r e o :I ,m :h i fi e ,d mer chantsitpts:haeakl l fteh h au a rsa v e times not seen in t . i I of New York in a few wee!is, but they have already lived long enough to repent of the operation in the great commercial mart of the United States." Private acco un t s f rom the Red River expedition have reached ree, and I am happy to say they aro of a more satisfactory character. The I udiais, or a portion of them, who were employe 1 on the expe -1 dition, returned home afier the party had arrived at Riling Lake. It was rumoured that these Indians had abandoned the party on account of. an Indian war raging in the interior, but the truth is, they were only hired to proceed as far as Raing Lake, and on their arrival there were of course allowed to use their own discretion in regard to going further or returning from whence they came. Te ey chose the latter, and have now gone back to Caughna waga, or elsewhere to their squaws and wigwams. The remainder of the party, with one or two ex ceptions, have since safely arrived at the Red River Settlement, and very shortly it is expected that a report from the officers who accompanied the expe dition will be made public. In the meanwhile lam rejoiced to be able to state that in every respect the anticipations of our people have been fully realised, and it is now proved, beyond the possibility of a doubt, that there exists, between Lake Superior and the Red River Settlement, an immense tract of mag nificent country, admirably tiwb,2red and watered, and in all respects adapted for se: thenent ; and that, instead of the route being impracticable, there is every facility for opening both laud and water com munications, and that at an inconsiderable outlay. I am informed that the scenery is really b.rauti tiful ; and one may judge of the fertility of the soil in the neighbourhood of the Dog River and the Lake of the Woods, by the fact that hardwood tre s were found which measured upwards of nine feet in. girth, while the vegetation, and the nature of the soil, gave additional evidence that the labours of the husbandman would be abundantly' blessed in such a region. In regard to the great swamp or savanna, across which Sir George Simpson seems to think it impo esible to carry a road, it has been dis covered that the whole of the tract covered by water can easily be completely drained, and at very lit [le expenditure of money or of labour, by cutting through a slight ridge which would then enable the waters to form a deep channel for themselves, and leave the country not only dry, but in a state the best adapted f, r the plough, and likely to yield the richest harvests - if any part of the country. An attempt is about to be made to establish a woollen factory on the Red River, where there is plenty of water-power, and I am informed that two parties aro now in Montreal (who lately arrives from Red River), engaged in hiring French-Cana dian labourers for the fa,cory. This is a fresh in dication of the enterprise and progress of the settle ment, and shows that the Red River colon , sts are well aware of the natural advantages their country . that a county meeti g ii d n e tdsor? accou .ts of th s into: eating settlement.

LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 22, 1857. THE VISIT OF THE DUKE OF cAm-- BRIDGE TO SHEFFIELD. Yesterday his Royal Highness the Duke of Cam bridge visited Sheffield for the purpose of laying the foundation-stone of a monument to the memory of the soldiers from Sheffield and the neighbourhood who fell in the Crimea. The monument originated with a few working men, who formed themselves into a committee and appealed to the gentry of the town and neighbourhood for subscriptions. The appeal met with so liberal a response that fundswere at once raised sufficient to carry out the project in a manner worthy of the town. On competition, the design of Mr. Gouldie, of Sheffield, was adopted, and the monument is to be erected on a triangular piece of land called Moorhead. It is in a central part of the town, and the point upon which no less than six streets converge. The laying of the foundation stone was an event in which the greatest interest was manifested by the town. At noon all the shops and places of business were closed, many thousands of persons assembled in Norfolk Par; and formed a procession in honour of the occasion. All the pub is bodies were represented, as also various institutions, Odd Fellows, and sick socie ties. The procession was headed by a body of about 60 Sheffield men who had served in the Crimea ; it left the park at 12 o'clock for the Great Northern station, and there halted to await the Duke of Cam bridge. His Royal Highnes., acc'nupanied. by Lord Burghersh and Colonel Clifton,arrived at 12.35, and was received by Lieut.-General Sir Harry Smith, G. C. 8., Colonel Hodge, C. 8., the Mayor of Shef field, the Master Cutler, Mr. Overend, and others. A. guard of honour of the 10th Hussars was in wait ing outside the station. The Duke, who with Sir H. Smith was most loudly cheered, entered the carriage of the Mayor and fell into the ranks of the procession, which then moved through the principal streets- to the site. The whole route of the procession was perfectly gay with ban ners, the streets -were crowded, and every point where platforms could be erected and every avail able eminence were occupied by eager spec tators, who everywhere greeted his Royal Highness with demonstrations of enthusiasm. The ceremony was performed by the Duke of Cambridge iu the presence of assembled thousands, and the proces sion afterwards moved to the Market-place, and there broke up. _ _ At 4 o'clock a cold collation was given at the Cutlers'-hall, at which the Mayor (Mr. J. W. Pye Smith) presided, supported by the Duke of Cam bridge, Col. Hodge, Col. Wilkie, the Master Cut • ler (Mr. W. Hutchinson), the Town Regent, (Mr. W. Butcher), the Rev. Canon Sale, Messrs. Over end, Jeffcock, Ellison, Phillipes, etc. The toasts of " The Queen," "The Prince Con sort and the rest of the Royal Family," were given by the Mayor, and most cordially received. Mr. W. OVEREND, in proposing " The Health of the Duke of Cambridge," said it was impossible there could be a more popular Commander- in-Ch ief either with the army or the public. Sheffield always welcomed the military with enthusiasm, and they had especial pleasure in doing so to day, when they had among them a member of the Royal family who, as General, led the Guards with a coolness rarely equalled up the heights of the Alma—(cheers) —and who headed the Guards for five hours in their band-to-hind fight with the enemy at Inkerman. (Loud cheers.) The Duke of CAmmtinar,—(cheers,)—Mr. Mayor and gentlemen, the toast has beeM proposed by Mr. Overend in so flattering a manner that I feel some difficulty in responding to it, btrt, how ever flattering the terms which have been used with regard to myself, I am happy in having this op portunity of expressing my satisfaction in being present to-day in your excellent t own o f Sh e ffi e ld. The reception which I have had the honour of re ceiving during my progress through this town—a reception which was not confined to any particular class of society, but to the whole population —was such as to be highly gratifying to any individual to whom such a compliment was paid. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, I had great pleasure in accepting your invitation. I am aware that this was specially a movement of the working classes—(cheers)—and I thought that the feeling of Sheffield towards the army was so laudable, so handsome, and so satis factory, that it would ill become me in my position to have for one moment hesitated in accepting the invitation. (Applause.) I have not had any reason, gentlemen, to regret having done so. (Cheers.) On the contrary, I have received that hearty welcome which has been gratifying to myself, and which has convinced me that the decision I came to was a c•r rect and righ r one. (Applause.) But since I accepted your invitation events have taken place in India which no one could foretell, and which have pro duced a feeling throughout the country which has been especially manifested in this excellent borough of Sheffield. You have set a noble example by en deavouring by every means in your power to fur nish recruits for the army. (Cheers ) Well, a were accident has brought me here at this period, but I consider that accident a fortunate one, be cause it enables me to express to you the sense I feel of that movement, and my anxious hope that it may be followed and extended in various parts of the country. (Applause.) Now, the only subject which of late has g iven me anxiety was the recruiting for th e army. I must however tell you —for there is nothing like being frank and open with you—that th e or di nary recru i t i n g for the army is progressing in a manner w hi c h i s perfectly in credible. (Loud cheers.) The ordinary means of recruiting have in two days alone produced 800 men. (Renewed applause.) That is a great fact ; it is a result which was never obtained during the Russian war ; a result whish was never °quilled in the military history of the country. (Cheers.) Gen tlemen, I put this forward to prove that it is not a mistake to say that we are recruiting remarkably well. There is no doubt that all parties, especially myself, must have felt considerable anxiety as to the result. The number of men required is very considerable. How were they to be recruited ? Ordinary recruiting, I leave no doubt, would in time have produced them. The circumstances are extraordinary, and extraordinary efforts must be made ; it is of the very greatest consequence that the feeling which has obtained in Sheffield should be spread and extended throughout the country, and the example which Sheffield has in that respect given is very valuable. On my part it has been felt very sincerely, and we feel very grateful to you for it. (Loud cheers.) And what has been done by Sheffield might be done by other towns, and not only by towns, but by individuals. Gentlemen read of these events in India, and say, " how sad it is," and w i s h t h ey could assist the Government in their suppression of the mutiny. Gentlemen, you can assist ; every country gentleman could, every community, every individual can assist if you will take the pains and trouble to explain to men who, from their peculiar position, live very humbly, live from hand to mouth, and say, " Why do you not go into the army, where you will be well cared for, and do the country service 1" If you do this you will be benefiting the country, and the army will receive great benefit from getting an in crewed number of good recruits. (Loud cheers.) Therefore, I am anxious to impress upon you that the more that spirit is fostered, the more it is en couraged, the better. I, as the responsib'e head of a la ge profession, shall be pleased, and the more will you benefit the institutions of your country. (Applause.) Gentlemen, as regards India I feel great delicacy in speaking ou that tupic in presence of my gill:int friend on the left (Sir Harry Smith), who has had so much experience there, but from what I know I may state that I have no fear of failure ; that 1 have not the smallest fear for the result. (Applause.) The struggle has been a despe rate one, but it was nobly and gallantly sustained by that portion of our army which was present— , by every Englishman, yea, by every Englishwoman and every English ethild. (Applause.) I feel confi dent that the turning point is passed, and that the period is arrived when by degrees vast reinforce ments will reach India from this country. When they have, as my gallant friend (Sir H. Smith), who knows more of India than I, will tellyou, they will be able to sweep through the land, restore and replace the proper authority. (Cheers.) I trust that no undue leniency will be adopted. (Cheers.) That may appear a very harsh and unfeeling re mark. (No, no.) It is nothing of the knd. What does it mean ? We have an army of 70,000 men who leave mutinied nobody knows why. Are these 70,000 men to be allowed to go broadcast over the country ma - sacreing men, women, and children without receiving the punish ment due to such crimes? ("No, no.") Just so, gentlemen ; therefore let us have justice. (Cheers.) Not undue, indiscriminate vengeance, but justice, and stern justice. (Cheers.) We have a right to ex pect that those men shall Le brought before proper tribunals a n d d u l y pun i s h ed for the atrocious deeds that tot punishment. ehus b one e ihos d abh o vsu a n ee ere the l e. (Cheers.) laehl S)teSheaeorinllco u ntryadig.tweLriliteliss all e tions, for I know that they are sentiments which pervade the Ur( acts of every person in this great' empire, which exists by its prestige—by the im porta c 3 it holds throughout the world. There fore its authority must be vindicated ; that accom plished, and then it may be for us to consider what may be don e t o i mprove our pos i-i on in India. (Hear, hea r .) I h ave no doubt tha t on man y occa sions fault s , grave errors may have but, I ask y ou , gentlemen, if in t h e hi s t or y o f na tions ext en di ng over a perio 3 of been committed ; 100 years it is not a natural consequence that errors should have been committed ; and the only thing is that when they are discovered thy should be rectified—that we should take care Lc); to f 1t into those errors again. That is the lesson which we should. derive from these sal misfortunes wh;ch have now befallen us. How this is to be doue I am not able to say, nor do I think this is the proper place for its considera tion. It would be folly to suppose that we may not have committed some mistakes, and those mistake; ought to In corrected ; and it is just as great a fault to say that becausewe have committed such mistakes it has served us right, and that we ought to have known better. (Applause.) We might have done better, but it is very easy to find fault after the disaster has happened ; but the coun try at large has another lesson to learn, which I also trust will not be long after the peace. I have on all occasions in my p ower adrisel my colleagues by saying, "WI aLv er you d o, h a ve the country pre pared for any emergency." (Cheers.) It was not for me to say what should be done in India, but I do say that this great empire must always be to a certain extent prepared for such disasters as that which has now come u .)ou ite What has been our principle of action ? We have cut down our estab lishments exactly to the point where we could go on wol king. (Cheers.) We have kept nothing for an emergency. Ask yourselves—is it right thata great country like this sh ,uld be in that position ? (Loud cheers.) lam not for extravagance, but I will put a case. Suppose you require 50,000 troops for duty, surely s nsible men would have at least 55,000, in order that 5,000 should be ready for any emerge/11y that might arise and for which the 50,000 would not be availthl e , b e i n g em ployed on their own special duty. (Ch eers .) You cannot have efficiency if you have net the means at a moment's nonce to vindicate th e honour and P9sit'cn of the country. (Cheers.) Now, gentle men, we have had two important leAsons, one after the other.

(Cheers.) The tide is India had turned, and with the powerful army which would now be collected events would rapidly rush in our favour. Speaking from experience, he said the army of India was justly treated, and had no cause for the c.induct of which they had bsea guilty. No man, civil or military, ever had taus to pred;ct this misfortune ; it was too much tle fashion to blame the East India Company, but ha maintained that the rule of that Company had bekn one of jus tice in every respect. India was won by the sword, and had to be maintained by the sw4d, but that word must be one, of justice. He sawao difficulty in the future management of India, finless there was treachery among ourselves in ulland, and a continuance of that twactile and mock iiiilanthropy which is too much the rage of the day The tide of Christianity would flow more rapilly by our simply endeavour a; to prove its correctness and its justice than by attempts to force it upon Mahommedans and Hindoos.

'THE POTATO CROP. An experienced agriculturist r3ports to a Kil kenny paper that the potato crop in two large districts of that county is turning out very light, not giving more than half last year's yield. The tubers, however, are much more free from dis cave than he bad expected. This report, it is addedlapplies pretty generally to the condition of the crop in the whole county, the returns not being more than hilt* of 1856, but the supe rior qullity of the new crop over that of last year very largely makes amends for the decrease in bulk. THE ADMIRALTY PROVISION CONTRACT. The Evening Post contains the following infor mation upon this subject : " We understand that a fair proportion of the beef and pork contract for the year 1853 has 13feri taken by the leading Dublin houses. We have not yet learnt the full particulars of the allotments ; but we believe that the respectable firm of Messrs. C. Wood and Sons, Bow-street, and our enterprising fellow-cit'z3n, Mr. M. Smith, of Copper-alley, are among tho'4e most of whose tenders were accepted. We should not be surpr'sed if the greater portion of the pork wore taken by the Belfast houses, while mast of the beef contract has fallen to the Dublin firms. A day or two, however, will telt all about it." RAILWAY INT ILL bIGENCE. GRAND TRUNK OF CANADA. The adjourned annual meeting of this company was held on Sep'. 29th at Toronto—the Hon. J. Ross in the chair. Mr. GRANT , the assistant-secretary, read the re port, which stated that the primary object of the directors bad been to open the line for local traffic as the sections were finished, as they considered this accommodation due to the people of the pro vinces after the aid extended to the company by the Legislature. Motives of prudence also rendered it good policy to do so, and every season's experience would indicate what requisites were necessary to secure the legitimate share of the enormous go xis' traffic passing from east to west at the various Inter cepting points on the lake as well as on the river. The success a'tending the Canadian mail steamers had acquired for them a prestige whin). has estab lished the St. Lawrence and Grand Truck route as the shortest and quickest to the Western and South- Western States. When the Grand Trunk Railway is finished, Quebec, Portland, Montreal, Kingston, Toronto, Hamilton, London, Datrol, Sarnia, Col ling wo pd, Peterboro', and Ottawa, will be connected by railway without a break, and as a commercial en , erprise the directors feel confident that it will ultimately fulfil all the expectations which have been entertained of it. With regard to that por tion below Quebec which forms part of the colo nial chain of railroad originally contemplated, the directors entertain the most sanguine hopes, confi: dently believing that no lengthened period can elapse before the New Brunswick Government will have run its road to the frontier, and one unbroken Elie of communication will have been effected be tween the western waters of Lake Huron and the south-eastern extremity of Nova Scotia. Owing to the restrictions contained in the Relief Act of 1856 with respect to the application of the preference bonds for 2,000,0001. to meet existing liabilities, and for additional rolling stock, station, and other accommodation, it is necessary to obtain the sanc tion of the shareholders. It is only intended to issue an amount not exceeding 1,500,0001., the balance of 500,0J01. being intended to be in substi tution of the C debentures created last year, and which will be cancelled. The directors recommend that these debentures rank immediately after the existing debentures of the company, and bear in terest at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum, and that one-third be repayable in five years, one-third in 10 years, and one-third: in 15 years. In 1856 an independent company obtained an act for the con struction of a railway frpm the Grand Trunk line at St. Mary's, a point nine miles west of Stratford, to London, a distance of 22 mile and it was consi dered desirable that the sanction of the shareholders ouldbe given to ti oamalgaa a ion of the two com panies at par, and to an agreement which has been made, for the construction and equipment of the railway, with responsible Canadian contractors, at a cost of 8,0001. per mile, including rolling stock, and which is included in the sum available under the Relief Act of 1856. The report of Mr. S. P. Bidder stated that since the date of the last report no additional mileage bas been opened, and the shareholders will bear in mind that the line still remains in unconnected sections, a fact which fully accounts for the business of the road being almost altogether of a local charact'-r. Out of a total of 663,028 passengers 555,012 were local ; and out of 355,221 tons of freight 316,599 tons were also local. The links now wanting in the main chain of communication from west to east are the esplanade in front of the city of Toronto, the lengths between Strafford and London, Stratford and Sarnia, the extension east of St. Thomas's, and the Victoria bridge, all of which are now being pushed forward 6e i Ba s r8 84 1.h 1 9 c vu m errb i e l e e ne e en . y ,2TlBe9h:ev4i leaving ,al and bal receiptsathnec forbalance xo f with the utmost vigour. The total length of rail 41)twh, ex penditure pastl. uwr t eohoa2ptbefhi open is credit of revenue. The expenses would have been much less were it not for the very large outlay necessitated by extraordinary repairs on the leased lines from Montreal to Portland, in the rerolling and relaying of lengthy sections of rails, and in the entire renewal of bridges, which re newals are still going on, and will require nearly 50,000/. to complete them. During the past few months 30,0001. has been expended in renewals of stations, bridges, and rails. The working expenses would not have exceeded .the estimate of 10/. per mi!ei per week (suf ficient to earn 20/. per mile per week), but for these extraordinary repairs. The sum of 31,0001. of that extraordinary expenditure ought, in the opinion of Mr. Bidder, to be charged to capital. He stated that the emigration arriving at Queb.c has received, during the past year, his especial at tention, and that the through-booking arrange ments, as completed by Sir Cusack Roney, in Eng land, have been productive of the most beneficial results as regards the comfort and expedition with which emigrants have been conveyed to their place of destination after their arrival in the St. Lawrence. The number who have availed them selves of through-tickets has been nearly one-third of the total numherbf emigrants who have arrived, and over 100,000 books, maps, and general infor mation circulars with reference to Canada as a home for the emigrant, have been gratuitously cir culated from the London office of the company. Mr. A. M. Ross, the engineer, stated in his re port, dated the 22d of September, on the Victoria bridge, that by the 12th of November last year the two abutments and nine piers were completed, the dams for seven additional piers were commenced early in the season of the present yea' ; two of these piers have been completed, the masonry of two more is in a forward state, and the masonry in the other 3 clams had been commenced, and would be completed by the middle of November, making 16 piers completed out of 25. The iron work for one tube was now in course of erection, and would be finished by the let of November. On the motion for the adoption of the report some discussion ensued in respect to the proposed amalgamation of the Grand Trunk Junction Com pany at par with the Grand Trunk Company, the length of the Junction line being 22 milea and the cost 176,0001. Resolutions were passed, adopting the report, electing Mr. T. G. Blackwell, a director, at the request of the English board ; accepting the Act of last session to dispense with the Government direc tors, and to facilitate the completion of the company's works to Sarnia ; re-electing the Hon. J. Ross, Mr. Crawford, Mr. Baring, Mr. Glyn, Mr. Hodgson, the retiring directors; and electing Major J. F. Campbell, a director, in the room of Mr. B. Holmes, who retired. The meeting was then made special, and resolu tions were passed, authorising the directors to raise 1,500,000/. on bonds bearing interest at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum, repayable in 5, 10, and 15 years ' • approving the amalgamation of the Grand Trunk Junction Company with the Grand Trunk Company ; increasing the number of direc tors to 15, and fixing their remuneration at 5,5001. per annum, including 2,500/. per annum for Mr. Blackwell. The proceedings concluded with a vote of tanks to the chairman. • THE VACANT CANONRY AT ROCHESTER CATHEDRAL. —A statement has been going the roand of the press, that the canonry in Rochester Cathedral, rendered va cant by the death of the Rev. Dr. Irving, is to be m - ferred upon the Rev. Robert Whist on, M.A., head master of the Rochester Grammar-school. However gratified the numerous friends of the reverend gentleman would be to find that the Government had at length recognised his claims, yet on the present occasion they will be disappointed, as there is no truth whatmr in the statement, the vacant canonry at Rochester being one of those suspended, and therefore will not be filled up.— Soutk Eastern Gazette.

The Dublin coutributio s towards the Indian Relief Fund is no w 11•1 e I, (sort of 8,0001., and the subscriptions continue to pp rin *di that before long the fair amount was realised ' gross osslllwill l ap b i e lathe Protestant churches on the Day of Humiliation, an d it is to be hoped the donations of the uutne rival church. As yet, ho to vo u s s f no sign from that quarter ; but, at ver, th is never too late to it mend, who knows what way come out of the sit tings of the conclave of petl Y 4 now assembled in Marlborough -street Presloss;y v es s It might be that among the several matters of fraporta,nce which are to form the subjects of deTh e t . n the question of Roman Catholic ra io . ic synapatlef with the unhappy vic tims of Indian cruelty would not be lost sight of. At all events, it would besatisfactoryto leas n whe ther every Roman .. . Ireland Catholic bishop in adopts the views set forth by Dr. Cullen in the • celebrated letter t) one of his vicars-general. After taking more tim e f o r meditation than seemed necessary for a place of its commercial im portance Belfast has awoke fron its trance, and a meeting is to be held th,re to-day, under the auspices of the Mayor, for the i mpose of aiding the great work of relief now in i rogress throughout the three kingdoms. y swelled A o -v the el:7 In reference to this meeting and its objects the Northern fffibig has the follow ing excellent words :—. " We cannot comprehend the loathsome party spirit which insists on identifying half.olad women and hungry children with what are called tte 6 English oppressor of the Hindoo.' There may 1 , 6 a good deal to say. at the right time, about the infamies of the East India Company, and the general criminal c illousness of the English people in regard to Indian politics. We can also understand, as an i n telligible absurdity, the Young Ireland point of view it Indian politics; and we do not see that any one should be surprised at the Nation 1 Tically gloating over disasters to the ascendiint race. Bat we hope there is nothing of this kind of insanity in the north of Ireland. Here at least we are rational men when not engaged in local politics, and we thoroughly realise that the British are conquering, must conquer, and will conquer India, and that the victims of our own blood, to our own polioy, are at least entitled to our succour. In truth, all attempts to blink or evade the nen. cess;ty incumbent upon the comfortable and the affluent to subscribe in this matter are of the very shabbiest kind. Dr. Cullen's conditioning that the money shall not go to proselytism is very acute but very supererogatory, f n• the ostensible object is stated distinctively ; and, if we make bargains while we give alms, other gentlemen mig • ht step in and say —lmake the proviso that, in case shallgo of surplus, the money P.ilice, a North-west expedition, or something else sub lime or silty, according to sake. Let D r . C u ll en su b scr ib e and take the risks, just a pays his taxes, though he knows a Protestant hierarchy and a decidedly anti-Papal set of people get the benefit of his punctual loyalty. Then, we hear people say—These British in India are of the well-to-do middle.class ; why do not their relatives e provi'df)r them I Well, the answer is—That is an as sumption. We only know that in Calcutta there are hue dreds poor and in want, and their countrymen are the relatives that they are entitled to look to for immediate help. Another set of objectors urge that the East India Company should take charge of those who were in their employment. No doubt; but a corporate body in such a positiin takes time, bears claims, discusses, and awards, very tediously—mean white the cry is far help. The most general and most plausible sneer is that there are sufferers at home, and it is a pity we do not expend our benevolence on the very poorest in our own streets. This is a sneer which assuredly comes from gentlemen who by no means devote themselves to the dom est i c poor, and who do not believe that charity diverted from India would flo w into the channels which they impartially negl ect. For home miseries there are all sorts of organi,ations, the S'ate'. and society's ; fir the British in India there is no organisation, and the emergency i 3 sharp and sudden. And Irishmen, who should not forget the world's mercy to their own country 10 years ago, ought not to be strin gent in putting a bitter export duty on charity." THE PRESIDENTSHIP OF MAYNOOTH COLLEGE.
