Accounts from Liverpool report that the Cotton Market 'yesterday closed heavily, but prices were unaltered. The sales were estimated at 5,000 bales. The railway Share Market closed with a dull appearance, and the values of all the leading stocks have declined. . _ The Foreign andVolonial Produce Markets since our last report have exhibited rather more activity. Tea is at full rates, and a large business has been done in the better qualities ; about 33,000 packages will be sold at public sale to-morrow when high rates are expected to be realised. Sugar has been in better request and fully late rates are supported for the better grocery descriptions, low refining qualities were in demand, and realised a slight ad vance. Coffee has been quiet, but no change can be noted on quotations. For rice there was amo derate inquiry, and notwithstanding the decline of 3s. to 4s. in Mark Lane, priceshave in most instances been fully supported. The demand for rum has been active, and a large business has been transacted in Demerara and Leewards at fully former quota tions. There was an active inquiry for saltpetre, and prices have advanced about Is. per cwt., and tallow has been firmer, P. Y. C. having realised 595. 3d. for present delivery, and 58s. 3s. to 58s. 6d. for last three months. The condition of some of- the money markets abroad is becoming very unsatisfactory, and the terms of discount in two or three of the principal cities of the continent are already much• abov? the average. In Holland, where 4 per cent, is consi dered a high quotation, money is now worth 5 per cent., and at Hamburg and Berlin an advance to 4 per cent. has just bean notified. In Vienna, also, there is more etringenoy, and it is feared that most of the German Banks will he compelled to impose additional restrictions. In France discount accom modation is still very dear, but the tendency, as far as can be judged from the recent advices, is not unfavourable, and trade is improving. But the Bank of France is still buying gold, and if these operations should become more extensive increased pressure may be anticipated here. A large portion of the .recent Australian supplies have been absorbed, and should the movement continue discussions will soon be heard as to the prospect of the minimum being raised to 6 per cent. The immediate demand for discounts is exceed ingly active, and, although the supply is consider able owing to the high rates of interest offered for deposits "on call," the full charge of 5i per cent. is in almost all cases exacted. It is expected that the gold brought by the Nor folk, from Australia, will be delivered to-day. A part, if not all, will probably be sent to the continent. Several other vessels are due, with Specie, but it must be remembered that the time of Year is not favourable for quick passages. The English Stock Market continues in an apathetic state. Values remain unaltered, and during the last few days the fluctuation has been only per cent. There are consequently no move ments to comment upon, and until later advices from India are received, the market is expected to show no material alteration. Consols are 90i I, and for account, Oct. 14, 901 and The New 2i per Cents. are 75 ; Exchequer Bills, Bs. to 4s. discount ; and India Bonds, 235. discount. East India Stock is 210 to 2121. In the Foreign Market operations are also very -- circumscribed, and the tendency of prices is rather unfavourable, but the changes have been exceed ingly limited. Turkish 6 per Cents. are about 94g 95, and dealings have been recorded as follows: --Mexican 3 per Cents. are 21* ; Portuguese 3 per Cent. 1856 Bonds, 56 ; Russian 4A per Cents. 99 21, and Spanish Deferred, 251. - The following are the n,ominal. prices of Foreign Stocks :—Grenada Deferred Bonds, 5i 6 ; Mexi can, 21i ; Peruvian 4A per Cents., 78 80 ; ditto 3 per Cents., 55 57 ; Portuguese 3 per Cents., 45 46 ; Russian 5 per Cents., 109 111 ; ditto 4A per Cents., 97 99 ; Spanish 3 per Cents., 401 A ; ditto New Deferred, 25g Certificates, 5i 6 ; ditto Passive, 52 Business in the Railway Share Market this morning was inactive, and the few transactions reported have exhibited the following variations : Eastern Counties declined . ss. ; South Western fl etnd North Eastern Berwick, 10s. ; Caledonian," 155., and North Eastern York, 1/. ; Great Northern and North Western advanced 55., and Great Western and Scottish Central 10s. In the Foreign and Colonial lines prices were depressed. Antwerp and Rotterdam, Dutch Rhenish, 1 Namur and Liege, and Great Luxemburg were a shade lower, and the French lines were at quite nominal values. Grand Trunk of Canada declined 1/., and Great Western of Canada, 55. Mining shares were very quiet. Alfred Consols advanced to 13. 1 Joint Stock Bank and miscellaneous shares ex- ' hibited a downward tendency. English, Scottish, and Australian Chartered, London and Westmin ster, Ottoman Bank, and Western of London, each declined about ss. Peninsular and Oriental Steam shares advanced 10s.

Several passengers were much shaken. Had it not been that the engineer got the train in motion the consequences might have been terrific. Our correspocdent says that he was in one of the carriages and had a very severe blow on the face. The accident, according to our correspondent, must have originated either from the train being on the wrong line of rails, or because the signal was not on, or was ne b lected by the engineer. IMPORTANT TO LODGING-HOUSE KEEPERS.— In the . Lambeth County Court, yesterday, an action was brought by a lodging-house keeper at Brixton, named - "hew?, to recover the amount.of a fortnight's rent and a dinner provided for the defendant, an officer in the East India Company's service, named Lawrence. It appeared that the defendant had taken apartments at the plaintiff's house, and ordered a dinnerto be provided, but afterwards wrote a letter declining the apartments. It was pleaded by the eclicitor for the defendant (Mr. Ody) that the plaintiff was precluded by the Statute of Frauds from recovering the rent under the circum stances. His Honour said the .Statute of Frauds was the cause of more frauds being perpetrated than it had ever prevented, and gave a verdict for the amount of the dinner only. THE LATE SIR CHARLES SHABERLEY, BART.--Sir Charles Peter Sleakerley, Bart., who dl d: at Somerford Park, near Congleton, Cheshire, on Monday, in his 65th year, was by maternal descent the head representative of an ancient family settled in that county so far back as the reign of Henry 111. The last heir male of the Sha kerleys left a daughter, who married, in 1764, Charles Buckworth, Esq , of Park-place, Barks, who assumed in 1790, by Act of Parliament, the name and arms of Sha kerley alone. He died in 1834, leaving kwo sons, the elder of whom was the gentleman so. recently deceased, and who, having served the office of high sheriff of his native county in 1837, was created a bayonet in the fol lowing year, on the occar-ion of her Majesty's coronation. He married, lit, in 1819, Marine. Laure Angelique Rosalba, daughter of the Marquis d'Avaray, from whom be was divorced in 1830 ; and, 2J, in 1831, Jessie, the daughter of James Se.itt, Req., of Rotherfield Park, Halite by whom be has left an only dau g hter, and a son, Charles Watkin, born in 1831, who has now suc ceeded as second baronet.

( Before Mr. Prendergast, Q. C. ) MASTERS AND WORKMEN—WHERE IS THE REDRESS t This morning several workmen who had been in the employ of Messrs. Brass, of Silver-street, Aldergates, applied for summonses, under the following circum stances :—They were, according to their statement, dis missed last evening without being paid, and were told to call for their money at 6 o'clock this morning, which they did, but were not paid till seven o'clock. They now applied to his Honour for advice. His Honour said that he could not, as a judge, give any advice ; they most apply to a solicitor. The men generally said it was hard to lose a day's work and not be able to get recompense. As to the job, they did not care about it, although it might be a long one. ' His Honour, being still further pressed fOr his advice, said the best advice he could give them was to go back and settle the difference with their employers ; there must be some misunderstanding. The men were still discontented, and at last hie Honour said that he would not in the least way inter fere until the case came before him judicially.' The parties then retired. No reason was assigned fer the discharge of the men. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (This Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. RUFFIANLY ASSAULT ON THE POLIOECBY A CABMAN. John Ash, a cab-driver, badge 2,723, was charged before Mr. Bingham with violently assaulting police constables Cook, 106_0, and Winters, 115 C, while in the execution of their duty. Cook, 106 C, stated that about 8 o'clock last night be was on duty in the Haymarket, when he saw the defendant standing with his cab by the side of the street, so as to interciplThe — iibule of the thoroughfare. He civilly requested—him to go away, which he refused to do. Prisoner then got off his cab, and said, " There is my cab, I shall go home." Witness then observed that he was intoxicated, and called the waterman from the adjoining cab-stand to take charge of defendant's cab while he took him (de fendant) to the station-house. On their way to the latter place the prisoner' struck him with great forae in the mouth, and thin trippid him up. Witness struggled with him for nearly ten minutes, during which the pri soner tore his coat and trousers all to pieces. The pri soner would no doabt have inflicted further injuries, had not Winters, 115 C, come to his assistance, and lodged the prisoner in the station. Winters said he went to the aid of last witness,•when the prisoner turned upon him (witness) and kicked him with great violence. The prisoner, who strongly denied the charge, was committed to the House of Correction for a month. MARKET NEWS.—(rliis Day.) HAY MARKETS.

TEE INDIAN FUND FETE AT CREIIORNIL—When the subscription was set on foot for the Wellington Fund, the amount realised from the Cremorno fete was no less than 1,1081., and formed a very subtantial addition to the subscriptions. Amongst the numerous efforts being made, in various parts of the country, to raise funds for the purpose of alleviating the distresses of the sufferers by the Indian outbreak, the announcement of a fete at Cremorne on Monday next deserves notice. The com mittee who are to superintend the receipts and the dia ' petal of the money are all influential gentlemen ; and it is anticipated that the public will come forward even more generously than on the last occasion. The enter tainments are of the best order ; and as the numerous artistes have volunteered their services gratuitously, the entire receipts will be paid over by elle committee with out the requisite deductions for ordinary occasion& THE BOILER EXPLOSION AT MANCHESTER.—Three of the unfortunate workpeople scalded by an explosion of a steam boiler belonging to Messrs. Johnson and Com pany, Bradford-road, Manchester, on Friday last, have since died at the Manchester Royal Infirmary. Their names are John Cash, the engine-driver, Robert Fellows, and Joseph Hayes. Mr. Herford, coroner for Manchester, held an inquest on the bodies yesterday. The first witness was the chief engineer of the works, who described the boiler, and said he was certain that at 8 o'clock on Friday morning there was 6in. to Bin. of water marked by the gauge, and that after the explosion he found the feed valve screwed down. The 6in. or Bin. of water might evaporate in three-quarters of an hour. The explosion took place an hour and three-quarters after that. Mr. T. Forsyth, engineer, who bad examined the boiler at the request of the coroner, was the next wit-, ness, and stated in effect that the boiler bad burst through want of water and the plates of the boiler be coming red hot. He believed ,he boiler had been in good ordinary working order, with adequate fittings, and he accounted for the accident in this way—that a small screw whioh fixed the valve of the feeding apparatus to the screw handle under the charge of Cash, the engine. driver, had gradually worked itself out, and bad not been in its place for a considerable time ; that, being so, the valve had gradually become unscrewed until at some time, probably within the the la s t h our an d a quarter before the accident, it had become quite discjnnected and dropped into its seating. The consequence would be that, whatever the m a n in charge might do, he could not cause water to pass into the boiler. There was the clearest evidence that the flue had been red-hot over a considerable amount of surface. The admission of water upon the red-hot iron, causing the accident, he attributed to the fact that the 16 boilers on the premises, coupled together, being a t a higher level, after becoming over charged, had allowed water to fall back through the connexion-pipe int? the boiler that had burst, and so upon the red-hot iron plates. Mr. Longridge, inspec tor to the Association for P reven ti n g B o iler Explo- , pions, concurred in this view of the case, and the jury, after a few minutes' consideration, returned a verdict of 1 "Accidental death." :NTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) S' + P TEMBE IV , 22, 1857 SPO CREMORNE GARDENS. The termination of the Cremorne season with the present week may be regarded as a sort of official declaration ou the part of the more lively portion of the London public that summer is fairly over. People pass down to Cremorne by multitudes as long as the state of the weather renders the migra tion possible ; the heat that makes theatres insuffer able invites to the out-door enjoyments of the gar dens, and from Whitsuntide to the end of Septem ber there is no place of amusement more popular. Circumstances have given the proprietor all the advantages of a monopoly.. Vauxhall, after several spasmodic flickerings, has entirely faded out, nor even if it were reopened by an enterprising specu lator would it prove a competitor equal to Oreinorne. The older gardens, planted with dark avenues, that shut out the light of day, are arranged for night amusements only, and derive their sole brightness from artificial means of illumination ; whereas Cremorne, with its broad lawns, its picturesque points of view, its fountains and its statues, affords a most agreeable lounge in the afternoon, without sacrificing any of its qualifications for becoming a land of lamps after nightfall. • The Surrey Gardens, notwithstanding the excellence of the new Music hall, and the advantages of a lake that afforded an opportunity for the _display of a peculiar descrip tion of fireworks not to be found elsewhere, have not met 'patronage enough to become a permanent establishment ; possibly because a situation " over the water" couterbalances all the good that can be effected by any amount of taste and enterprise. Moreover, the Surrey Gardens from the first beginning, when they made their appearance as a zoological institution, were addressed to a graver class than Cremorne, and even if theyhad flourished they could scarcely have rivalled it in the estimation of the most numerous patrons of out-door amusements. There are, in deed, various public gardens in the different out skirts of the metropolis, and, if report may be trusted, many of them are ably and respectably conducted ; but these enjoy a local rather than a general celebrity, and do not even attempt a com petition with the large gardens of Chelsea. Cre morne is the only place of out-door gaiety that is recognised all over London, and frequented alike by high and humble. Gardens known to all Paris are numerous—there is but one Cremorne. Far from making an undue use of the monopoly that circumstances have thrust upon him, Mr. Sim?son has managed his property with as much zeal for the amusement of the public as if a whole legion of competitors were arrayed against him. Every season the garden is embellished with some new ornament, and enlivened with some now de scription of entertainment. There is an equestrian circus ; there is a theatre for the performance of ballets ; there is a marionette theatre ; there is a cosmorama ; there are opportunities for the practice of marksmanship in all its forms from rifle-shooting and American bowls down to rineing toe bull" and the slaughter of tin stags with a pop-gun • and finally there are refreshment rooms, Which, notwithstand ing the natural tendency of man to be sensitive as to all that regards his palate, have never, we believe, awakened a grumble. In short, it is hard to say what Cremorne does not present in the shape of open-air recreation. The amusement-seekers of London will,'under these circumstances, regret to learn that a cloud is at present hanging over the fortunes of Cremorne. To many of our more joyous readers the Chelsea Elysium will appear such a veritable seat of delight that they will be totally unable to understand that a different view is taken of the matter by the Chelsea vestry. Puzzling indeed to the multitude that go r aetling down to Cremorne in brougham, cab, and carriage will be the explanation that rents are lowered by immediate vicinity to the gardens. " Who would not pay double rent to live next door to Cremorne, and compensate for the outlay by the saving of coach hire l"—so will argue many a wearer of a downy moustache ; buthis argu ment will not convince the small portion of the Chelsea vestrymen who are now invading the privileges of Cremorne. At present the assault merely takes the form of an " early closing movement," and the licensing magistrates are to be requested - 0 shut up Mr. Simpson by half-past 1.1 o'clock. " E trly to ben and early to rise" is, no doubt, a wholesome motto for those who can adopt it ; but its .cogency is slight in the eyes of police men; opera-dancers, West-end oyster-shop pro prietors, manufacturers of fireworks, and many other persons of vii tuous professions, to whom we may add in a body the amateurs, reputable and dis reputable, whocultivate the worship of Terpsichore. We are not aware that there is any Greek myth setting forth some mystic arrangement between Kronos and the most popular of muses in order to account for the connection between dancing and late hours, but certain it is that from the days when Horace could say— " Jam Cytherea choros ducit Venus, imminence Luna," down to the present sober time dancers of every class, whether they frequent the lax casino or ex hibit their predilectionsat the quiet little family ball of a puritanical suburb, seem all to make their con duct a practical expression of that individual liberty which is so often shouted forth in the chorus, "We won't go home till morning." In all probability the cloud will pass over ; but if it should break over. Cremorne, and the monster platform and the sup per-room become solemn deserts at half-past eleven, then will the new joyous multitude that flows through the avenues of 'Chelsea wend sorrowfully home at early .midnight, asking why the mirth of the metropolis is thus brought toan early close. In what form did the angry gods manifest themselves who dashed away the lamps from the Temple of the Muses and the Graces ? Aud Clio, the muse of history, will reply,—ln the form of 18 vestrymen. Times. MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. - - - SIR, —Will you kindly permit me, through the medium of your columns, to correct an impression which is gain - Inv, ground, that the " Victoria Rifles," or Mid dlesex Volunteer Corps, is simply a club of gentlemen, not sanctioned by Government. Such an impression to a great extent frustrates the exertions of those who are endeavouring to raise the corps to its full complement. I therefore wish to state in contradiction, that the Victoria Rifle Corps is enrolled under the direct sanction of her Majesty, with the approval also of Lord 'Pal merston. The corps is governed by the Volunteer Act, is entirely self-supporting, and is, [ believe, the only volunteer rifle corps, with the exception of the " South Devon," whose officers' names appear in the Army List. Ten of its members have received commissions in various militia regiments ; one was gazetted direct from its ranks as Paymaster to the German Legion, and two are now fighting in India as officers of her Majesty's 60th Rifles.—l am, Sir, your most obedient servant, FREDK ABBOTT, Serjeaut, Victoria Rifles. Orderly Room, Kilburn, N.W. Sept. 21, 1857. PAST AND FUTURE. If we are to witness a repetition of the Acrobat and Blink Bonny riots few gentlemen will be inclined to visit a race-course, and it will be absolutely dangerous to keep horses.. A more disgraceful disturbance —a "row" more unwarrantable than that created at Doncaster on Friday—it was never my misfortune to witness. I have no hesitation in stating, from -facts-that have come to my knowledge, that the St. Leger backers of Blink Bonny had an honest ;race for their money, and that the confidence of her owner and jockey were undiminished until the very moment the mare vise beaten. Blink Bonr.y began to tire after passing ' the Red House, .and on reaching the distance she was quite beaten. Ignoramus proved to be an overrated.liorge; but be went to the post with a most suspicious leg, and walked laMely back to the enclosure, that many persons fancied he had broken down. .I was prepared for the utter defeat of the favour ites. In The Sun, on the Monday before the race, the following remarks appeared : " I shall therefore, without extending my remarks, jump at the conclusion that Blink Bonny and Ignore mus'vvill not be amongst the placed horses, and that the double and treble events about the mare will be.spoiled by either Adamas or _ • " IMPERIEUSE.! There are occasions on which a man may blow his own .trumpet as lustily as he pleases, and I think so extraordinary a verification of my prediction as that re corded above, entitles me to &prolonged flourish. As in the years when Vie Sun alone predicted Haco to win the Cesarewitch, Little David the Cambridgeshire, and Whitelock the Northumberland Plate, *xi' in:1857 - it is, the ,only journal that picked Imperieuse for the St.. Leger A satisfactory Settling has been 'announced. Thei winners ha‘ite collected their gains, an'] the list of: casualties is'uninaportant. From" the City ciicle only one, iran will be missed, and from the Corner no important, absentee has been reported. The gentlemen of " the House " had. a rare time of it, and were enabled to retrieve some of those loses on the - turf which they sustained on 'Change. Mr. Perry had the Imperieuse commission, and well did he 'execnte it. I cannot 'withhold my tribute of adhairation from the' manner in which Imperiense was sent to . the post. John ScOtt bad eshauSted the secrets of his art upon her, and well was he rewarded for the skill and labour 'which he had bestowed on her preparation. Imperieuse is his own property, having been taken as a "'set off" against the debt of a nobleman, whose 910771 de course was " Mr. Newland." Flatman, too, rode Imperieuse with consummate jtidgment. He took a,_place at starting which he retained to the end, never quitting it, but going on steadily, whilst his opponentt'dropped one by one behind Lint If any 'Prod of his being the most pa., tient and careful jockey of the day . were wanting, he furnished a conclusive one by the manner in which he rode Warlock and Imperiense at DoLcaster. Before these remarks meet the eye of the reader, the Pontefract gathering will be concluded, and half the races at Leicester run off. I shall offer no apology for not referring to them earlier, because they really excited very little attention, and were, in •fact, totally disre garded by -- turfites until the' iMPeitati business con nected with the St. 'Leger settling was brought to a ter mination. The programme of to-morrow's sport at Leicester 'contains six items, of which three are inclosed. Amelia may win the Welter race, and the Scurry seems likely to be placed to the credit of one of Mr. T. Cliff's nomi nations. Prince . of Denmark ought to carry off the Nursery. The attempt to get up military races at Warwick is likely to he so signal a failure that the scheme will be aban doned for the future. Indeed, racing men do not care to be always running to and from Warwick ; they go there quite often enough as it is. Should Amelia not go to _Leicester, she may win the Balaklara Stakes. Hamlet may win the 20 sovs. Handicap, and Hunting ton the Handicap of 10 sovs. each, one mile. If the Prince of Danmark should be sent t 3 Warwick instead of to Leicester, he will win the Nursery Handicap. Cock of the North ought to carry off the Handicap of 5 sovs. each; five furlongs. On paper the chance of - Poodle and Redemption seem ad attractive as any for the Wind ham Handicap. Monmouth I must pass over in silence, and my remarks on Manchester shall be reserved for Thursday. A FRESH MAN. TATTERSALL'S-MONDAY. If any doubts were entertained respecting the St. Leger settling, they were satisfactorily dispelled by the readiness with which all liabilitieS were met this afternoon. One of the largest winners on the race closed his account with only a 101. balance in his favour. Not a missing man was reported amongst the members of the Ring, and only one absentee from the "outer set" was announced. As we have already'stated, the bulk of the money is distributed amongst the gentlemen of the Stock Exchange. The betting on the Cesarewitch swds not remark ably brisk. The principal movements were those which caused the decline of Victoria and. the ad vance of the Plush colt, December, 'and Sacharissa. A disposition was also evinced to back M. Dobler, Black Tommy, and Warlock. The other horses quoted were merely nibbled at. CLOSING PRICES.

THE RAIL WA THE LATE MURDER IN LEIGH WOODS, NEAR BRISTOL —lt having been pretty clearly ascertained that a pair of stays similar to those worn by the deceased were pur chased on the Saturday before the murder at the shop of Mr. Goodman, Stall-street, Bath, by a person corres ponding in dress, stature, and appearance with the de ceased, who represented that she was living at Keynsham and SaMord, on the road between Bath and Bristol, and that she was about to be married and emigrate to Aus tralia, the police are actively exerting themselves in endeavourin g to trace out whether such a person has left the neighbourhood, and if so, whether she can he identified as the murdered woman. Yesterday morning Mr. Handcock, chief of the Bristol police, received a communication from the master of the union workhouse at Nottingham stating that a short time since a young woman named Cordelia Parker was received into the house, not as a pauper, but as suffering under mental aberration. She had at that time 71. in her possession, which she took with her on leaving the house. After quitting she resided for a short period in the family of Mr. Renshaw, of No. 2, Lenton Sands, near Notting ham, in the capacity of under-governess. While there she received a further sum of about 381. from the sale of some furniture. She left Mr. Henshaw's family and proceeded to Hull for the purpose of endeavouring to obtain employment as a teacher of music, failing which she expressed her intention of going direct to Bristol. The master and mistress of the union both state that the printed description of decea sed exactly corresponds with the young woman in question, and the latter had an of seeing that a ll Cordelia Parker's linen, was marked in a manner similar to that of the deceased. This information has been communicated to the chiefs of police at Nottingham and Hull, by w hom furth(l in quiries are being made. The Court of Assize s o f the A TTE MPT TO NIURDER .— Isere three dors ago tried a man amed Jardi hawker n for an a tt em pt at murder.

Ue subsequently persecuted her incessantly with his ad• dresses, following her from town to town. To get rid of him, she one day announced she was going to Lyons, but instead of doing so [4.vine theweenntto Vienne.

She said that she had no wish to eat, and on her reiterated refusal he be came irritated. At length, after some squabbling, he seized a knife, and plunged it into her breast. She fell bathed in blood, and was conveyed to the hospital ; but though ;he wound was very serious, she after a while recovered. When before the court the man said that he meant to murder the woman because she had rejected him, and had carried on intrigues with other men. The jury declared him guilty, and the court sentenced him to 20 years' hard labour. FROM ED ALEXANDRIA, Sept. 11.—The periodic rise of the Nile, to which this country owes its fertility, is always watched withanxious eyes by its inhabitants during this month, towards the middle of which it usually attains its greatest height. The public Crier in Cairo proclaims aloud each day the number of cubits to which the river has risen, as indicated by the Nilometer in the Island. of Rhoda. During the last few days it has been found to remain nearly stationary, at about the height of 21 cubits, this being a very slow rise at this date ; and as it ap pears to be already receding, instead of rising two to three cubits above that height, it has already caused some anxiety for the next year's crops of grain and cotton, which depend on the extent and continuance of the inundation of the land by the Nile at this season ; for according to its abun dance or deficiency will the productiveness of the land be increased or diminished—a greatly defi cient rise of the river causing a great scarcity of produce, and, as has occurred at stated periods, bringing a famine on the " Land of Egypt." The Viceroy has already manifested some anxiety on this head, and has intimated the possibility, at an early period of the present year, of his being obliged to prohibit the export of grain, as a precautionary measure, to obviate the consequences of a scarcity during the next year. There appears to be, how ever, no positive grounds as yet fqr such a proceed ing. The construction of the railway from Cairo to Suez to complete the line from the Mediterranean to the Red Sea is advancing very slowly, only about 50 miles having been made since it was begun nearly two years ago. It were to be wished that 'a certain powerful and friendly influence had been used with the Viceroy, Said Pasha, to hasten the completion of this work of real and practical utility to Egypt, instead of wasting his resources by the enormous expenses he has been incurring in forwarding M. Lesseps' utopian project of tha Suez Ship Canal, from which Egypt can never derive any benefit whatever, but on the contrary, will be greatly in jured immediately, by the way in which it is pro posed to carry it out, in having fully one-third of her already too scanty agricultural labourers taken away into the Suez desert to workat this monstrous project, and remotely, if it ever should be finished, by its directing the present transit trade to Egypt— which passes through and benefits the country— into the Suez desert, removed so many miles from its habitable confines. It is however, pretty well known now here that Said Pasha has altered his views as regards this famous project of M. Lesseps; and reports says that he is thoroughly disgusted with it, both on account of the heavy expense it entails !upon him, and the complications it has given rise to with the British Minister, whose op position to it he was never led to anticipate ! Said Pasha certainly deserves credit from over land passengers for having, of his own free will, very shortly after his accession to the Viceroyalty, ordeeed that this railway from Cairo to Suez should be made forthwith, and from his own resources, which at time were very limited. Had the making of it been committed to Mr. Stephenson, and carried in the direction he pointed out, continuing the Alexandria line direct from near Beneh through the Wadi Turnala.h to Suez, being nearly a perfect level, it would have been finished long since, and at considerably less expense than the present line, which it is feared will eventually have to be aban doned on account of its running through shifting sands in some I arts, and chiefly from the want of having a supply of water at any part of the line. Said Pasha, with his own ingenieur-en-chef (Mougelet Bey), would make a railroad. and would make it in their own selected direction, and there it is (surely enough 0, on the Suez desert, half finished, dragging "its long length slowly along" towards Suez. But it is n I presume generally known in Eng land that in making this railway to Suez he had. a political object in view • nor would it ba sup posed that in taking up M. Lesseps' project, the most persuasive arguments used with him were political. It was perhaps the instinct of self-pre servation at the time to place himself in a suffi ciently independent position to be able to resist the cabals or conspiracies, as he imagined, formed against him at Constantinople ; and so Egypt was to be isolated from the Turkish territories by the broad and deep ship canal across the Isthmus of Suez, and the Iledggas (Arabias), reeonquered for the Sultan by his father, Mohamed Ali, was to be placed within his grasp by a railway to Suez, and by a fleet of screw steamers in the Red Sea, for which he had formed a nominally trading company with his own paid directors, and for which M. Lesseps got au order to purchase three or four of those large screw steamers built for a French Atlantic company at Havre. There is no doubt that such ideas were put into his head by parties here who sur rounded him from interested motives, flattering his ambition of becoming, like his father, a Euro pean celebrity by his great undertakings. This had been leading him into enormous expenditure in maintaining and equipping in the most expensive way a large standing army, and in various other ways by yielding to the impor tunities of piojsctors proposing schemes in which they are interested, or soliciting orders for the pur chase of various articles, on the execution of which they make enormous profits. And in this way some favoured few have made, and others are ex pecting to make, fortunes in this country. But unfortunately for the latter, and perhaps fortu nately for the Viceroy, his finances appear to be at present at a very low ebb. It is a notorious fact here Viet the pay of nearly all the Government officials, and even of the officers of high rank in the army, is five or six months, some eight or nine months, in arrears. Said Pasha himself has been borrowing money from some of the banks at an ex orbitant rate of interest, and still he continues this reckless expenditure as above indicated in a way that far exceeds the means which the revenue of this country (though larger for its extent than that of any of the smaller States of Europe) places at his disposal. But Egypt is a country of wonderful resources, and Said Pasha is a noble minded, en lightened, and generous Prince ! So says M. Les sops, who has had, no doubt, good reasons for asserting it, as he had " the honour of approaching and appreciating his Highness." The yearly increasing trade of this country with Great Britain, both in its exports of the staple arti cles of cotton and grain and in its imports of cotton manufactures, &c., is so great, and the political im portance of preserving Egypt as a dependence of the Ottoman Empire —thereby ensuring the overland. route via Suez to India from being interrupted—is so evident, that it is really a matter of surprise to some that the active influence of England, through her representative here, has been so little felt, merely because seldom or never exercised on the councils of the Viceroy, while he has been left wholly to the guidance of other more energetic European func tionaries. This is the more to be regretted, whether it arises from indifference or a laisser faire principle on the part of the British Government, or the apa thy of its representative here, because the present Viceroy, it iswell known, would readily lend his ea and be easily led to act on the disinterested advice which would be given him from that quarter, and which, it is said, a more thoughtful review of late events and of his present position has made him latterly better able and more disposed to appreciate than ever. However, tho transit of the overland mails and public are at present, pEagysspeiti,geinrswbhoitchh othuetw.Barridstishandhomewa,rds through most interested, is really effected very efficiently • under the administration of this Government ; though one of your London contemporaries com plains very fairly regarding it, particularly refer ring to that of the previous mails—the fact being num that on that oc casion the dela y complained of was una voidable from the lar g eness of the mails and th e great number of pa ssen g ers, Indian and Aus tralian, un expectedly arr iving be at Suez at the samaree time. The difficulty of finding camels suffi c i en t a t a re q ui r ed day ' s for the when an an arr extraordinary the transit across som e 90 m il es o f ct desert, can be easily appreciated; but the active ethaego advantages sd that t the w u gl agent hero of the Peninsular and Orie n tal Com fiaainlyh administration adsonietim derived from making use of the portion of the rail road already made, to which they at once assented; yet, strange to say, some routine official objections were made to us i ng it f or the mails u n t il the whole line of railway from Su" to Cairo was opened ! This appears incredible, but is only on a par with what has just taken place here regarding the forwarding of the Bombay mails this time, which were sent by a slow French steamer leaving here for Marseilles, i ns tead of sending them by her Majesty's despatch s t ea mer Carado c (lying iu this harbour, togeth er with her Majesty s steam corvette , the Desperate, awaiting the arrival of the Siamese A m bassador), by which the intelli g ence from India by t hi s mail, so anxiously expec ted, wou ld h ave arrived fullyn dyet w two daysecomplain of an a sooner th than by this accidental e F i a r e e nt nc al h s teamer ; a n d delay of a few hours across the desert on the part of the Egyptian transit administration ! Cannot, then, the Admiralty really spare a despatch steamer, while so many are cruising about the Mediterranean accompanying Lord Lyons' fleet, to await the arrival of th 3 Indian mails here, and obviate such delay in their transmission to Egg land as must occasionally occur from accident or rregularity of arrival here of the m ail steamer, on so long and dangerous a sea voyage as thatfrou India to Suez ?
