This vessel brought 503,333 dollars in specie. The adjournment of Congress was to have taken place in a day or two _ the Arabia's departure from oston papers contain no political news of importance The cheering accounts of the harvest in all parts had helped to strengthen public confidence. The quantity of wheat gathered wa s estimated at 142,836,000 bushels. The money and produce markets were in a healthy state. Our Paris Correspondent gives us some informa tion of rather a discouraging character, with regard to the existence of secret societies in the French capital. A considerable number of persons had been tried and condemned to various terms of imprisonment. The import revenue returns of France, which have just been published, are satis factory, on the whole, and will, no doubt, increase with the continuation of peace. It was reported in Paris that the Russians had evacuated the Isle of Serpents. The Pays announces that King Bomba has consented to the convocation of an European Congress, before which he will vindicate his cause, and explain the reasons of his conduct. From Hamburg we learn that cholera had 1 of the Stat A N THE broken out with great severity at Stockholm. It is said that General Bodisco, the Russian military envoy, was one of its first victims. From the same source, we are informed that the elections in Sweden have returned to the Diet a Liberal majority. The session ensuing will be much occupied with railway projects. The government proposes a complete system of railways connecting the North Sea with the Baltic, and the towns of Christiani, Gottenburg, and Upsal, with the capital, at a cost of 128,000,000 fr The Cologne Gazette publishes a letter which says:—" We learn from a good source that Russia " will not consent on any condition whatever to " the cession of Bolgrad." This intelligence was fol lowed by a telegraphic despatch, which reached us late last night, dated Constantinople, August 15th, stating that " the Russian reply gives hopes of the " surrender of Bolgrad." Which of these versions is to be believed, we must leave the reader to decide• Meanwhile, letters received from the Black Sea report that nine of the thirteen battalions of the 14th division of the army of the south, which occupied Ismail and the other fortresses on the line of the lower Danube, had just quitted the country. There remained only four battalions, whose departure was imminent. The continental papers announce the arrival of the King of Greece, at Darmstadt, on the 19th, from Ludevigshof, in company with the Dowager Empress Caroline of Austria. Their majesties are on a visit to the court of Hesse The news received f of general interest. Prince Adalbezt arrived at the Madrid contains lit received with great pomp. The nuptial ceremony was to have taken place on Monday, the 25th. The Gazette publishes the decree defiuitively disband ing the National Guard. The government will render an account of this measure to the Cortes at its next session ; but when this " account" is to beirendered, our informant saith not. In recording current events of to-day, nearer home, it is our painful duty to announce the demise of the Hon. Sir William Temple, brother of Viscount Palmerston, and late Minister Pleni. potentiary at the court of Naples. The melancholy event took place at nine o'clock, a.m., on Sunday, at his temporary residence in Dover -street, Piccadilly. When he left his diplomatic post at the close of the past month, his health was in a very precarious state, and since his arrival in London, a fortnight back, he continued to sink gradually. News reached Southampton yesterday to the effect that the schooner yacht Viking, belonging to Colonel Sterling, was run into by the barque James Holmes, bound for Loudon from the West Indies, and cut down to the water's edge.. The yacht made for Newhaven in a sinking state. Fortun ately, all hands were saved.

THE COURT OSBORNE, August 24.---The Duke of Cambridge left Osborne yesterday morning for London. Major-General Breton, commanding the South W es t ern di str i ct, arrived on a visit to her Majesty on Friday, and returned to Portsmouth yesterday. The Queen and Prince, with the Prince of Wales, and Prince Arthur, landed at Browndown, near Gosport, yesterday afternoon, when her Majesty inspected the two battalions of the British German Legion encamped there. Earl and Countess Vane, and Colonel the Hon. C. B. and Mrs. Phipps had the honour of dining with the Queen in the evening. The Duchess of Gloucester has been indisposed, but was better yesterday. The Duke of Cambridge arrived at his residence in St. James's Palace, on Saturday after noon, from Osborne. THE QUEEN'S ARRIVAL IN YORK.—Her Majesty will arrive in this city on Thursday next, at 12.43 p.m., en route to Balmoral. The royal family will take luncheon at the Royal Station Hotel. Messrs. H. and G. Brown have received orders for 1,000 yards of elegant tapestry carpeting to be used on the occasion at the railway station. His Serene Highness Prince Edward of Saxe Weimar who has been on a visit to his father, the Duke Bernard of Saxe Weimar, at the Hague, arrived in town, on Thursday, from Holland, and has since left to join the Princess and family circle assembled at Gordon Castle with the Duke and Duchess of Richmond. The Earl of Lonsdale has arrived at Whitehaven Castle, Westmoreland, from Lowther Castle. Lord Blantyre and the Hon. J. Stuart arrived in town early in the week from Germany, and have since gone to the family seat in Scotland. The Earl and Countess of Shaftesbury are making a tour in France, but return early in the ensuing month. WORKING " SORE" HORSES.-011 Saturday, Mr. Marsh, owner of the Old Swan omnibuses, was summoned by the police, on nine charges, for baying worked horses with sore shoulders, breasts, knees, &c. Mr. Campbell was for the defendant. The charges were fully proved by the evidence, and a fine of £2 and costs imposed by Mr. Mansfield. SOLDIERS' WIVES—Mr. Mansfield stated on Saturday, that he had received a letter from the War Office, in reference to the wives of soldiers recently before the court, and he was informed that such of the women as were recorded on the regiment, would be forwarded to their husbands as soon as possible, and the others, as oppor tunities presented. VERY COOL—AN IMPUDENT ROBBER.—Yesterday morn ing, about six o'clock, soon after the opening of the King's Arms Hotel, John's•lane, corner of Whitechapel, a fellow, about 40 years of age, entered the house, walked leisurely up stairs, and examined several rooms. Finding nothing portable, he went into a bed room which was occupied by a gentleman, named Thomas Seaton, a mercantile person from Oxford. The intruder looked slily round the room, and then took up the gentleman's trowsers, with which he was about making his escape, when Mr. Seaton awoke and seized on the fellow. There was a considerable sum of money in the trowsers pocket. The prisoner was handed over to officer Murphy 676, who, on searching him, found a card containing the following inscription : " Chaussi D'Jugou, Ville 18. Albrecht. Modes Lingerie and Brodines Modes and embroideries. Havre," The prisoner pretended he could not speak English, and it was ascertained that he said he was about emigrating to America. He was remanded to this day. - - WAVERTREE LOCAL BOARD OF HEALTH.—A special meeting of this board was held last evening, at the public offices, Wavertree, for the purpose of receiving tenders for the sewer from the tank to the borough sewers, in Smithdown-lane. The Rev. Mr. Badnall presided. The other members present were—Messrs. Chaffers, Picton, Rishton, Gore, Geddes, Anderton, Davis, Swinden, and Idalhead. Some routine business having been disposed of, the contracts for the sewerage of the township were opened. This sewerage comprises a sewer to be con structed from the tank, which is to be filled up, to the land belonging to the Marquis of Salisbury, on the Waver tree road, to Join at the end of the Childwall road, and and also Bayass and Bishoogate-street. The contracts were from Aleuts.

Mr. Shaw Leigh sent in certain plans with regard to some buildings about to be erected at the north side of Wavertree road, which were referred back to him for the purpose of having the levels inserted. It was also recommended by the board that the new road should be twenty yards wide, and not fifteen yards. Mr. Newlands was directed to prepare sections of the levels of the buildings opposite Mr. Shaw Leigh's property, Th e board then adjourned. MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. LIVERPOOL, MONDAY EVENING The Liverpool Cotton Market has been rather more active to-day, and a moderate business has been done at full rates, the sales amounting to 8,000 bales, of which 3,000 have been taken for speculation and export. The Liverpool Share Market has been quiet, and after opening weak, prices went rather lower, closing flat at the lowest point, as under . Aberdeen, 132- 13-3-. Chester and Birkenhead, 158 161.

The Arabia, from Boston, arrived hero this afternoon, with half a million of dollars in specie, and dates from New York to the 12th inst. The commercial accounts are devoid of any striking feature, but may generally be regarded as satis factory. Messrs. Browne, Hunter, and Co. have to-day issued their usual monthly circular, from which we quote the following general remarks upon trad e : The activity and buoyancy in our Produce Markets that were observable at the date of our circular 24th uht.., have somewhat abated during the present month, and although the business transacted in the various articles has been to a fair extent, the demand being chiefly confined to the wants of the trade, apart from any speculative feeling, prices, in many instances have not been sustained. The reaction that has recently taken place in the Money Market, in which the value of accommodation has been augmented by the continued drain on the stock of bullion, has no doubt created a degree of caution, and checked an extension of mercantile operations ; and had it not been for the brilliant weather experienced during the past few weeks, so essential at this time for maturing the cereal crops, and the favourable prospects of the harvest both on the Continent and in this country, it is probable that some derangement would have been produced in monetary affairs. The trade and commerce of the country continue in a most satis factory position : the fact that the declared value of manufactures exported during the first six months of the present year exceeds that of the corresponding period of 1855 by upwards of ten and a half millions is corroborative of the activity that has prevailed in the manufacturing dis tricts. Although there has been no alteration in the rate of dircount at the Bank of England, the continued efflux of gold to the Continent in part purchase of silver for ship ment to the East, which continues on an extensive scale, has caused greater stringency iii the money market, and notwithstanding the arrivals of - specie have been almost equivalent thereto, there being no material alteration in the stock of bullion, which is now £11,804,730, against £11,798,605 at the same period last month. When the wants of France are satisfied, which, from their magnitude and the resources available for their supply are regarded as anomalous in their character, and therefore temporary only, the value of money will soon assume a downward tendency. The London Stock Market opened without ani mation to-day, and continued inactive up to the official closing. Consols were last quoted at— A ecount, 954 Do. Money, 954 4. Exchequer Bills, 11 14. Three and a Quarter per Cent, 964. The London Railway and general Share Market was dull but steady. In a few of the large lines a reduction of about to 4 may be observed. We subjoin the latest quotations : Caledonian, 584584. Edinburgh and Glasgow, 60 62. Eastern Counties, 94 94. East Lancashire, 83 85. Great Northern, 974 984. Do. A, 85 87. Great Western, 65 651. Lancashire and Yorkshire, 98 984. Leeds Northern, 171 18. London and North Western, 107 1074. Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, 344-, 344. Midland Stock, 834 844. North British, 36 37. South Eastern and Dover, 744 75. York, Newcastle, and Berwick, 84 85. York and North Midland, 59 594. The London Corn Market was very poorly supplied with English Wheat to-day. The bulk of the new samples were in prime condition, and the whole was disposed of at an advance of 3s per quarter upon the rates of this day week. The market was largely attended by country buyers, but the weather being dry confined their purchases to retail quantities at Friday's improve ment, being 4s per quarter over our quotations of Monday last for the lower qualities. Baltic and Hamburgh descriptions continue to be neglected. Barley sold freely at about last week's rates. Beans maintain their former value. Norfolk flour realised 53s to 54s per sack, and American barrels an advance of is to 2s. Amongst the new projects to whi c h su b scr i pt i ons are solicited in Paris is the Bois de Boulogne Company, a specie of land company. It claims to possess a large tract of land in the Bois de Boulogne, purchased from the city of Paris, and hopes to sell it in lots at a higher figure. Appli cations are invited for twenty thousand shares of 101. each. Tau STEAMSHIP KANGAROO.—This fine steamer, belong ing to the Liverpool and Philadelphia Steamship ompany, arrived at Philadelphia on the 13th instant, after an excellent passage of thirteen days. She experienced head winds during a great part of the passage. CRICKET.—A match was played on Saturday last, between the Collegiate Institution and Claughton Firs Cricket Clubs ' which terminated in favour of the former by one run and two wickets. The following are the scores :—Collegiat e Club, 28 and 85, with two wickets to go down ; Claughton Firs, 68 and 44. _ _ CRIMINAL ASSAULT ON A CHILD.—A ruffian, named John Downey, a renovator of old shoes, who resides in Scotland road, was yesterday committed for trial. by Mr. Mansfield, for a brutal assault committed on a child, named Margaret Haines, who is about nine years of age. The details a re unfit for publicatian. SUDDEN AND ACCIDENTAL DEATHS.—On Sunday evening a boy named Richard Wood, eleven years of age, who lived with his parents at No. 2, Bolton-street, was playing in the yard of Mr. M'Murdo, of Warwick-street, when the pole of a timber carriage struck him on the head, and fractured his skull. He died shortly after in the Southern Hospital.— On Sunday, a youth ,named William Berin ' aged sixteen, who lived with his parents at 26, Prince William-street, was on board the ship Bloomer, in the Brunswick-dock, when he fell into the water, and was drowned. SUICIDE BY A MAN UNKNOWN.-011 Saturday night, shortly after ten o'clock, a middle aged man, who, from his appearance, was in poor circumstances, went into a shop in School-lane, and asked for a drink of water, which was supplied. He snapped up a large knife, ran into the street, and drew it across his neck. Thomas Davies, of Church-alley, wrested the knife out of the man's hand, and some other men caught him and took him to the Southern Dispensary, where he died shortly after. The body has not as yet been recognised. It is supposed that the unfortunate man was mad, and that he was a tailor. A BAND STOPPED !—Yesterday, about half-past two o'clock, a " little sensation" was created in Lord Street, consequent on the following incident :—Some twenty youths, apparently about forrteen years of age, dressed in very light blue long coats, white trousers, and red caps, came up from Church Street playing fifes and beating drums ' followed by a large crowd of people. The boys looked well, and had a semi-military air about them ; and. from their picturesque appearance, a rumour (and what will not a rumour do ?) ran about to the effect that they were Turks, belonging to a man-of-war of that nation. On marched the boys, playing —and in good s yle, too—" The girl I left behind me," and, as they proceeded, the crowd augmented at every step. No doubt the poor little fellows imagined they were doing it " very fine," and tbey were the " observed of all observers ;" in this latter respect they were not mis taken, for, just as they reached Tohn Street, a big police officer presented himself before the astonished ' band master," and commanded him to "stop !" The order was instantly obeyed, and, of course, the cessation of the music had the effect of collecting a larger crowd than would the sounds of the ear-piercing fife. The usual interogatory of " what's it all about ?" ran through the crowd, when the police-officer informed the people that there was an order prohibiting bands from playing in the streets. One or two persons seemed rather indignant, and asked why were German bands allowed, and English boys prevented from enjoying themselves ? The question was not answered. It appears the boys had come from some part of Yorkshire, on an excursion train, and that they thought to astonish all Liverpool by their music, and a flag which was borne in front of the band, with the inscription, " Britains hope !" If " all Liverpool" was not astonished at the boys, we are sure the lads were " right fairly astonished", at what they, no doubt, considered an infringement on the "liberty of the subject." But, after all, the prohibition is necessary, taking into account the unmusical tastes of divers cab and other horses, that take too much " liberty" at duloet sounds, by dashing off at full speed—despite the restrictions of leather thongs and arms--and often upset poor apple women. We think, however, if the application of restric tion be applied as above, the German brass band nuisance ought to be effectually put down. NORTHERN TIMES.---LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. ♦ POLAND. The Constitutionnel says : It is positively stated that the King of Prussia, in order to satisfy the desires of the Poles of his kingdom, has resolved to create a special govern ment for the Grand Duchy of Posen, and to select a member of the royal family for governor. It is said that Prince Hohenzollern-Si gmarin gen, who now exercises a command at Dusseldorf, will accede to this high dignity. When the Duchy of Posen was originally occupied by the Prussians, a special government was promised to them, and Prince Anthony Radizwell, brother-in law to King Frederick William the Fourth, was designated, but the appointment was revoked during the revolution of 1t!531. FRANCE. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, SUNDAY EVENING. A long list of English non-commissioned officers and soldiers, who have obtained the military medal from the French Emperor, for having dis tinguished themselves in the eastern war, is given in the Moniteur today. In the French army, the medal carries with it a pension of 41. per year ; but it is not said whether or not the English are to receive the pension. The receipt of a further sum of 1371., from Ire land, for the victims of the inundations, is acknowledged in the Moniteur. An official return, shows that the import duties in the first seven months of the present year, amounted to 100,522 391 f, which were 20,698,989 f less than in the corresponding period of last year, but 20,036,6:33f more than in 1951. As regards the month of July, the receipts were 16,490,497 f; whilst in July of last year, they were 32,914,650 f, and in that of the preceding year, 13,436,420 f. The marked diminution of July last, com pared with the same month last year, is owing in part to the exhibition, but chiefly to the fact, that the import duties were to be augmented by a decime from August, and that, in consequence, importers hastened to pay duty on the goods they had in entrepot before the increase came into operation. In the total receipts for July last cotton figures for 1,574,4741, whereas in the same month of 1855, it figured for 2,396,247 f, and of 1854, for only 1,369,206 f. Iron, in bars, in the three months, was 287,847 f, 528,098 f, and 55,058 f. Coal, 642,595 f, 814,7291, and 612,1901, and wool, 710,011 f, 1,551,270 f, and 904,793 f. The total importation of wheat from the commencement of the present year up to the end of July was 3,859,286 quintals, and the export was only 410,561. As regards shipping, that of France, as usual, stands in woe ful inferiority to that of foreign countries. The weekly commercial report says, that an increase in the wages of workmen has taken place generally, but that their employers have not been able to increase their price of sale in the same proportion, so that they suffer loss. Although trade can hardly be said to have become active, it has a certain degree of movement, owing to the approach of the end of the " dead seasan.'' At Rouen, Elbeuf, and Roubaix, manufacturing towns, sales have been active. At Lyons, owing to the excessive dearness of raw material, manu facturers will not enter into any transactions at the old price, and the stocks on hand have nearly been all bought up for Paris and America. In wheat there is a general decline. At Havre, the sales of cotton amounted to 4,982 bales ; there were no arrivals. Prices remained unchanged. St. Petersburg letters speak of the probability of the Grand Duke Nicholas, being nominated Viceroy of Poland ; Prince Gortschakoff, the pre sent Governor-general, having manifested a wish to resign. The cholera is stated to have broken out with terrible violence at Stockholm, and to have carried off General Bodisco, Russian military plenipoteu tary in that city, and brother of the commander of Bomarsund. PARIS, SATURDAY EVENING A few days ago twenty one persons were tried at St. Etienne for having formed a secret society for the overthrow of the government and the assassination of the Emperor. This week the tribunal of correctional police has been occupied in trying not fewer than forty six persons on a similar charge. Of these forty six, ten have just been acquitted, and the rest have been condemned to from four months to four years imprisonment. At a distance this secret political societies appear very formidable, but here in France, they do not attract very much attention. Nevertheless, there is no question that they are dangerous, and that they prove that poor France is still menaced with insurrections and revolutions. According to the Pays, the Russian government has offered Prussia to take part in chastising the pirates of the Riff, and proposes to send from Cronstadt, as soon as required, two steam frigates, two steam corvettes, and several smaller vessels. Heavy rains have fallen during the last few days in nearly all parts of France. They are stated to have done good to the vines, but it appears that they have caused considerable harm to the crops of wheat and other grain not yet got in. A Bayonne paper says that the Emperor and Empress will stay a month at Biarritz. I have already told you that the Empress would make a longer stay there than she had originally intended; but I think your contemporary is in error in saying that the Emperor will stop so long. He will visit different seaports, and means besides to go to Compiegne to have a . little shooting. it is said that the Russians have abandoned the Isle of Serpents, and left the famous lighthouse to the care of the Turks. On dit, that a famous Austrian general, Count Sohlick by name, being in Paris, requested to be received by the Emperor, previous to his departure for Biarritz, but that the Emperor declined to grant the honour, because the Count was a great partisan of Russia during the war.

THE RAILWAY TRIALS.—It was impossible for the advo cates of justice, or the administrators of the law, to feel satisfied with two incidents which transpired on the late railway prosecutions, with respect to a gentleman who was absent when required as a witness, although it would be manifest to every reflecting mind that they admitted of explanation, or deseved the highest censure from the Press. It is especially necessary that those in high position should set an example to others of obedience to the law, and readiness to assist in the administration of justice ; while those who know Mr. Poole will readily allow that he would be actuated by such feelings. The duty of the Press is equally clear, and from enquiries which have been made, and explanations given to the authorities, in the interests of the public, it appaars that Mr. Poole's absence from the late trials was occasioned by no censurable defiance of the law, but by the want of proper intimation, whereby he was absent from Liverpool on his multifarious, ard, indeed, public duties ; had he been properly apprised of his attendance being required, there can be no doubt that he would have been ready with his evidence, which would have been satisfactory to all parties. His absence seems to have furnished a pivot on which to hang some ad captan. dues, special pleading, else it is difficult to see, on the charge made, the importance of evidence, whether one or more of the formal signatures were genuine or not. Mr. Parsonage has voluntered a disclaimer of the remarks attributed to him by the policeman, which he heard, for the first time, at the trial, and avows that his actual remarks referred to Mr. Salter, and not to Mr. Poole, and his own innocence, but were withheld from the evidence by the policeman, or they would have tended to his (Mr. Parson age's) more complete vindication. AMERICA. ARRIVAL OF THE ARABIA The British and North American Royal Mail Steamship Company's steamer Arabia, Capt. Stone, arrived in the Mersey yesterday afternoon from New York, bringing 503,333 dollars in specie, and 78 passengers. The Arabia left Boston on her regular day, the 13th inst , and touched a sunken rock, between Boston and Halifax, at which latter port she was delayed, and carefully surveyed by the authorities, and directed to proceed to Eng land with the mails and passengers. By her arrival we have received our files of papers from New York to the 12th, Boston the 13th, and Halifax to the 14th inst., all inclusive. The dates from New York are three days later than those brought by the Washington. The steamer Anglo-Saxon, from Liverpool, had arrived out at Quebec, the Arago from Southampton, and the Cunard steamer Canada, from Liverpool, had arrived out at Halifax, and proceeded on to Boston. On the 18th inst., in lat. 46 32 N., lon. 52 32 W., the Arabia exchanged signals with the ship John ; on the 24th, at 5 a.m., in lat. 54 . 14 N , lon. 10 30 W., passed the French ship Perseverance, steering east ; at 7 a m., passed a small vessel, bottom up, apparently some time in the water. In the New York Money Market there had been no important change ; the demand had continued active, but the supply was fully equal to the demand, and hence there had been no change in the rates of discount, which ranged from 6 to 8 per cent. The last return of the New York Banks showed a decrease in loans and discounts of 29,241 dollars, in specie 1,057,650 dollars, and in undrawn deposits of 1,697,557 dollars, whilst the circulation showed an increase of about 30,000. The New York Stock Market was not steady, and owing to the prevalence of a disposition to sell lower, prices generally were current. The demand for Foreign Exchange was not active, and but a small business was done for remittanc3 by the Arabia. The quo tations on London ranged from 1091 to 1091. The Cotton Market continued dull, and in order to effect sales to any extent, lower prices would have had to be accepted. The papers all agree in giving most satisfactory accounts of the progress of the harvest all over the United States. The Neu, York Times says : Last year, at this season, white called to rejoice at the prospect of the fat things in store from the abundant yield of the grain crop, we had to speak of it in melan choly contrast with the drouth and partial famine of the preceding year. This gave, perhaps, a keener interest, and imparted a more immediate importance to the sub ject, but it was not the less a drawback to the grateful pleasure of the moment. This year we have no such retrospect. We are called upon rather to rejoice and make glad over another great crop, one blessing following the other in such rapid and certain succes sion, as to obliterate all recollections of the suffer ings of the past, in the renewed assurance of abun dance in the future. The hearts of the people are thus made equally thankful to a benign Providence for the harvest of 1855, which at once relieved the necessities of the poor, while it rewarded the toil and anxieties of the husbandman, and that of 1856, which now renews and continues to all classes the mani fold comforts, profits, and luxuries of that richest of all national boons to an agricultural country—a good crop. We shall not stop to demonstrate that the harvest of wheat has proved, or is proving, a great one. There can now, we imagine, be little doubt of this, as applying to almost every part of the Union. It is equally certain that, in prospect of the competition in our markets from this heavy yield, the movement of last year's grain and flour from the South and West has been quickened of late, and that our export trade is sensibly realising the advantage of this movement, at a season when, last year, it had no supplies to work upon. Nor is it less certain that the growing corn crop, in consequence of the recent seasonable rains, will prove an abundant one, while the cotton planters of the South, who have but just realised from Europe over a hundred and twenty millions of dol lars from their last crop, in addition to selling seven hun dred thousand bales to our own Northern manufacturers, have every reasonable prospect of another growth of three and a half millions of bales of this staple. The accounts from Washington announce the near approach of the adjournment of Congress, which woud take place in a day or two. The National Intelligencer makes the following remarks upon the working qualities of the present Con gress, paying a • cordial tribute of praise to the energy and tact of Mr. Campbell, of Ohio, Chair man of the committee of Ways and Means : This beimg the last week of the session, and the proba bility fair that all the business of a national character will be completed within the time allotted for its consideration, the occasion is afforded for a brief reference to the working qualities of the present Congress. We may premise that we cannot at this moment doubt the ultimate agreement of the two Houses upon the items of dispute between them on two of the appropriation bills, and their harmonious co operation in measures necessary for the support of the government. In a period like the present, with so many elements of political strife, it was scarcely to heve been anticipated that the session would be fre from occasional scenes of excitement and personality ; but the general good temper and energy with which the substantial business of the country has been transacted deserve much praise. A stranger to congressional proceedings, who, for the first time, might have visited Washington, could not fail to have been impressed with the fact that, notwithstanding the loss of ten weeks in a struggle for the speakership, there has been but little left of bitterness, if a judgment can be formed from observing the free personal intercourse of mem bers of all sections during business hours. The persevering energy and tact with which Mr. Campbell, the chairman of the committee of ways and means, aided by his efficient and experienced colleagues, has pressed the appropriation bills to a consummation, has placed those important and indis pensable bills in a state of greater forwardness than we have known in the concluding week of any session for many years. This deserves public commendation, and vindicates the propriety of Mr. C.'s appointment to a trust which legislative usage always accords to a leading member of the party in the ascendant for the time being. Other commit tees have laboured with cnamendable industry ; and although, from the growing wants of this great nation, much private business must necessarily be delayed, yet the meed of a working congress can be fairly accorded to the present body. When members return to the duties of the short session, the excitements of the Presidential contest will have lost their influence, and the unfinished as well as the accruing business can receive a considerate attention, free from any of the embarrassments which now exist. In the Senate, Mr. Campbell, of Ohio, Chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means, made an elaborate and voluminous report on the Tariff and Finances, with a bill extending the free list, the consideration of which, on his motion, was post poned until the third Monday in December. By this bill the revenue will be reduced about six millions. It simply extends the free list by naming those articles necessary to American manufacture, which are not produced in sufficient quantity in the country. Wool under fifteen and not over fifty cents. were to be exported free; intermediate grades protected under present tariff, and remain unchanged. A new bill for the pacification of Kanzas is pro posed by the republicans, providing for the absolute annulment of all the Kanzas laws, and the election of a new legislature, at an early day. It has the earnest support of Governor Geary. An effort would be made to pass it the first opportunity. The Senate bill for the protection of American discoveries of guano islands has the hearty ap proval of the Secretary of State, and the entire Committee on Foreign Relations. At the Now York Great Quarantine Harbour rigid precautions were in force against the spread of yellow fever. All persons engaged in t h e vessels were obliged to land at the health officer's wharf, and from thence passed out of the gates into the village, or to the city, as they might wish. In consequence of this loose arrangement, one or two fatal cases of yellow fever had occurred outside the walls, and the inhabitants of the village had held a meeting, and formed a vigilance committee, to prevent all persons from passing out of the gates into the village, and obliging all those employed inside to remain inside or out. They were re• solved that, if necessary, they would barricade the gates, or use such other means to carry out their object as sh ou ld b e d eeme d proper, in justice to themselves, their families, and the inhabitants generally. Only one death from yellow fever had occurred in New York. The New York Journal of Commerce says :—" Last Saturday, upon the return of Dr. Thompson, the health officer, to quarantine, he found a large crowd of sea cap. tains, sailors, and stevedores, numbering about two hundred, connected wi▪ th or empl oyed upon vessels at Quarantine, who i▪ nformed him th a t t h ey w ere willing and ready, if he wished, to remove, by force, the barricade recently erected before the gate of the marine hospital by order of the Castleton authorities. Dr. Thompson earnestly requested them not to do it He told them he had made a statement of the w h o l e matter to the commissioners of emigration, and he had no doubt that the obstruction Would be quietly removed by the proper authorities. During the evening of the same day the Dr. was waited on by a commit te d appointed by the same parties, who again assur A e him that they were prepared t o l e v e l th e barrics ue f aforesaid at short notice, with a batt er ing ra 112 0 . 0 , 0 the competent weight and dimensions. At 3 request of the health officer, they again abstained from their contemplated action.' Of the state elections the _Herald says : I , ll a Kentucky sixty-eight counties have been b e from, which show a continued democratic In Missouri, official returns have been recei ve from thirty-eight counties, which give Polk 2 1 . 834, 5 Ewing (American) 22,'.73, and Benton, 14,77 7 vo te G ' As far as heard from, twenty-one Amerie o3 :i twenty Bentonites, seventeen Democrats, 513 d - six Whigs have been returned to the House. , ft , ti o three Americans, three Democrats, and '" 1 , 0 Bentonites to the Senate.
