INCRI ED RATE OF FREIGHTS.—At the banquet given at Southampton to the directors of the General Screw Steam Navigation Company, Mr. W. S. Lindsay is reported to have stated, that, the rate of freights out- la hail e Times adds, by way of So much for the injury which has been inflicted upon British shipping by recent legis lation." No doubt our contemporary would wish it to be inferred that it is our recent legislation— referring of course to the repeal of the navigation laws—which has given this great stimulus to the shipping trade of the country. We certainly can not endorse Mr. Lindsay's statement, to the extent of 100 per cent ; we fear he draws a little on the imagination. We fully admit, however, that for some months past, the merchant navy has been recovering from the extreme prostration to which it was reduced by the act of 1849. This we said in an article on the subject in our paper of the 6th instant; at the same time we showed what had brought about the beneficial relief to the shipping interest, namely, the great emigration to Australia, consequent on the discovery of gold in these colo nies. Now, unless it can be shown that it was our recent legislation that called this golden region into existence, we can see no connection between that legislation and the improvement in the prospects of the shipping interest of the country.—Shipping Gazette. Mn. JOHN BRIGHT'S ESCAPADE.—In reference to Mr. Bright's libel on the Constitution, at the In gersoll banquet, the Manchester Courier of Satur day says :—" We must, for the honour of Manches ter, repudiate the reflections that are made upon the 'manners' of Manchester's sons. Mr. John Bright is not a Manchester man.' He was not born here. He has no connexion whatever with the place be yond being elected her representative by those whom Manchester would be ashamed to own as exponents of either her principles or her manners.' He is essentially a vulgar fellow.' The real repre sentatives of Manchester are not vulgar fellows,' although it must be owned that the politics of the majority of the electors are low enough to encourage such a supposition. That Mr. Bright possesses a large share of rough, uncultivated cleverness is per fectly true, but there are among the constituency of Manchester hundreds of men who are equally clever, far more refined, and infinitely better educated." Of Mr. Bright's unhappy speech the Cowie/ cc r‘ surprised the American Minister, and disgusted those who surrounded him. It was quite as mal apropos as the speech delivered by the same blun dering vulgarian at the opening of the Free Library. Worst of all, it required a sound-hearted, clear headed ' gentleman' from Liverpool to correct it, — for no ' Manchester man' rose to perform that office,—possibly, because what Mr. Bright says is never regarded by the intelligent members of the community which he, so oddly, represents in the House of Commons." CTION.—The importance of ory can scarcely be over-rated; but its requires to be expounded for the benefit of the English press, which will, in all likelihood, misunderstand or misinterpret indications clear to every Irish mind. The triumph of Mr. Alexander was attributable to his own popularity as a resident gentleman and extensive employer, and to the tem porary awakening of the people to the hollowness and insincerity of the priests and demagogues. He was, in fact, considered b. as, to use his own words — "he considered Classes in the borough, the representative of all men of allu classes, and of c all.for he found among his sup portersdenomination ; and every religious town, he had them all with the tradesmen of the down to the nailors."

Let this clearly understood, that the priests of all cla sses, from Bishop Haly to Father Maher, used their m os t strenuous exertions in favour of Mr. Sadleir ; a n d furthermore that the discontented brigadiers had neither act nor part in the matter. Those move able by treasury or religious motives were moved to vote for the Aberdeen and Roman candidate — and they did so vote. No stone was left unturned to secure their support, and it was secured to the extent of 91 votes. The brigadiers were not in the field at all, and they most assuredly did not move a single man to poll for the successful candidate, nor did they withhold from him that was unsuccessful a eill We vote.—Dublin Eveniny Mail, THE CARLOW ELI the s world, and their beha doubtless aui THE NEW EMPRESS OF THE FRENCH.—SOme years ago there was resident at Malaga an Irish man whose name was Fitzpatrick. He was British consul at that city, and he sipped its sweet wine, ns, and became, as Moliere's Don Juan eat its r recommended poor oche, the father of a family second daughter of this family, Miss Fitz patrick, in due course of time captivated the heart of a very poor younger son of a very poor but ex ceedingly noble Spanish house. He was known as Don Fernandez de Montigo. The youthful pair married. Death soon after became busy with the elder branches of the race; and in a short time the newly married Don found himself the chief of the family, and combined on his own head the honours of Count de Montijo, Duke de Teba, and Duke de Pernamando. In these titles, of course, the young wife shared. She was rendered all the happier thereby, seeing that she was now on an equality with her elder sister, the present Duchess of Alba and Ber wick, who had espoused a descendant of the once us and illegitimate son of James 11. of England. The " Countess-Duchess," or " Duchess-Coun tess," blessed her husband some quarter of a cen tury since with an exceedingly fair daughter. The child was sweet and sylph-like, of buoyant spirits, wildly gleesome, and with bright blue eyes that gleamed through her auburn locks, like the clear morning star through a summer morning's dawn. This child bloomed into girlhood, and there was growth of beauty with increase of bloom. She was graceful of carriage, with a shape like that of Prior's "fine by degrees and beautifully less." She ed rather like Nora Creina tl an Lesbia ; had the latter's " wit refined ; " and, better still, the gentle heart and the killing glances of the former heroine renowned in song. Thus armed for con quest, Mlle. de Mor.tigo, as she was called, appeared in England in 1852, set an infinite number of foolish hearts aching, witched the world with her noble horsemanship in the Park, and then suddenly disappeared from our horizon to rise again near the El " !e in Faris The noblest salons of the Fi. too happy to welcome this nymph and her mother nch capital were but In external b s of Spring and Autumn The en tire world of fashion was enraptured with both ; and Louis Napoleon soon began to be as ecstatic as the fashion world of At every festival given by that very estimable individual, mother and daughter were present; and on one occasion, when a special hunting -party was arranged by the Emperor at Compiegne, the Duchess of Pernamando and the Countess de Teba (as the (laughter was now called) were the only ladies invited to be present. At this juncture, the Emperor was knocking at the door of every royal house in Europe, asking for a daughter that he might take to wife, and having the door closed upon him everywhere as a rejected suitor. As intelligence of each refusal reached France, if Louis Napoleon looked and felt chafed, the Coun tess de Teba neither looked nor felt in sympathy. She so contrived that the sun of her eyes should rather warm the disappointed wooer to new efforts in another direction. His attentions to the young lady became more marked than ever, and universally talked about. The countess affected coyness ; but if, like the lady we wot of, she ran " ad salices," it was with no intention of not being overtaken among the bowers of Compiegne. At imperial fete's by day and balls by night, she was now the lode star of the Emperor. It was manifest to all that the most phlegmatic of men was most consumedly in love. His cour tesy was candyed to a sweetness that only ardent lovers know of ; and it was when he was pressing it most on the Phillis who was yesterday " forward," and now so " coy," that he was thunderstruck with the intimation that the duchess and her daughter were about to return to Madrid. As his lips breathed protestations in the lady's ear, she was seen passing on as though " in maiden meditation, fancy free." The nearer he pressed the more she seemed to shun him. It was Daphne and Phoebus over again, and the former appeared on the very point of exclaiming, as she prettily but not too hastily fled—" Fer opem—si flumina numen habe tis." The intention, however, was only apparent, not real. The new Anne Boleyn was a match for her too unscrupulous adorer. The Spanish Pamela was intent upon marrying the French M. Burchell; and it was hard if Iberian and Hibernian wit toge ther could not do for her who possessed it what shrewdness did for the crafty widow of Scarron— namely, raise her to a throne. Louis Napoleon was given to understand that his homage could be no longer accepted unless his intentions were honourable. Well : Paris began to be excited, and mothers who had marriageable daughters were especially indignant at the diea of the grand-daughter of a British Consul becoming the consort of the Jupiter Scapin of France. Privy Councillors and Peeresses affected to believe that the whole matter was a joke. The Princess Mathilde (daughter of Jerome) shook her obese sides in farcical rage; and her brother, Jerome Napoleon, at present heir to the empire after his father, turned livid at the thought that anything serious would be accomplished. A per sonal female friend and confidante of the Emperor, however, gave a grand evening entertainment. The Countess de Teba was invited. When her carriage was announced as being at the door, the hostess descended to the threshold to meet her, and honours were paid to her such as only royal heads could claim. The young lady alone was imam, but all was perturbation around her; and every one divined that the Empress of the French was to be recog nised in her who was made the object of so profound a homage. At the same moment Louis Napoleon was presi ' ding at a Council of his Ministers, most of whom were struck into a ridiculously pitiable condition when lie announced that, on his retiring, M. de Persigny was charged to make an important com munication to them. That functionary bluntly imparted to his colleagues that the Emperor in tended to marry Mlle. de Montijo, Countess of Teba—that lie did not ask their advice, his mind being made up—but that he admitted them into his confidence as a mark of his condescension. Ac cordingly the poor, stock-jobbing, gambling, servile Cabinet accepted the communication without much comment. One who whispered " Mesalliance" was reminded that the throne of Josephine would not be disgraced by the accession to it of the Spanish lady; and that the Creole woman, whom the first Napoleon loved and betrayed, won more respect from the world than the Imperial Arch-Duchess, by alliance with whom he hoped to consolidate his greatness. on of the And such is the -fashioned s e a modern Corsican lromance.awyer The grandson i g s r n an o cl d d i a s u p g o r h it t ; r o o f f c o a n n d i o t l i o d n ß h r e it r i e s . h c l o i h n - e e su sp i o l us l e i s h e t the e e "loose man," who ' five years ago lodged in a back room in King-street, St. James s, has won thehand of a cl ever young lady livin g as modestly, with Therem°re emptyf " mesalliance" who, as many years since, was thousands, in Madrid.title than . solid s. whose birth is here.

For more than six weeks the tendency of the market in France has been to depression, although the Governm en t h as notoriously employed all the means at its command to keep up prices. At the same time the excess of private speculation in various crude schemes has been unexampled, and the avowed object of the increased facilities of credit granted by the Bank of France and the Joint-Stock Banks, under the sanction of the Government, was to encourage a spirit of adventure to the utmost. An immense number of lines of railroad have been conceded and commenced; public works of every kind are begun, with apparent indifference to the means of paying for them, although many of these under takings had, from their magnitude and magnifi cence, been postponed by former Governments.— Times.

No doubt, all the ordinary consi derations of policy, decorum, personal dignity, and usage might be urged, and have been urged, against this marriage. All the Ministers remonstrated; several of them resigned in consternation, when they thought of the ridicule and contempt with which such an alliance would be spoken of in the salons of Paris and the Courts of Europe. Louis Napoleon heard what they had to say, refused to accept their resignations, and confirmed his deci sion by ordering M. Fould to make the formal demand of the young lady's band. We are not disposed to take an unfavourable view of this deci sion ; but it is impossible not to see that a State in which such events are possible is governed by coups de tete, and that any other sudden caprice of desire, resentment, or ambition, which should get possession of the Imperial mind, would be gratified with the same disregard to all existing modes of opposition. In short, a man who acts thus is not only absolutely without control, but he takes a certain pride in demonstrating that neither the advice of his Ministers nor the motives by which men are commonly affected have any power at all over one of his decisions. The course of conduct to be pursued by such a man is wholly beyond the reach of foresight and of argument. It is impossi ble to affirm with certainty that there is anything he will not undertake; it is difficult to be prepared for those things on which he is secretly intent.— Times. THE GREAT EMPEROR AND THE LITTLE GOD. —Napoleon 111. has met with his match at last. The Eagle has dropped his thunderbolt, and has been metamorphosed into a turtle-dove. Jilted by the Princess Vasa,—snubbed, if report speaks true, by one or two ladies of right royal descent,—the nen emperor has determined, since he cannot gratify his ambition, to please at least his fancy. While our readers are perusing these lines, his Majesty is making to the Senate, the Legislative body, and the Council of State, the blushing confessions of a heart irresistibly smitten. Those bodies, we dare say, little suspected, when called into existence by the will of the dictator, that they should ever be sum moned to the Tuileries for affaires de cceur. How ever, so it is. The gaoler of France is himself the captive of a Spanish maiden with coal-black eyes, and Mademoiselle De Montijo is destined to share the imperial throne. Were it not for the proverbial caprice of the mischievous little god who has van quished the conqueror of the barricades, we should feel disposed to wonder at the precipitation with which the illustrious heir of the great Emperor has determined to condescend to fellowship with mortals of common flesh and blood. Although his chance among the princely houses of Europe may have been but small, the possibilities of contracting a dynastic alliance were by no means exhausted. The imperial family of Soulouque might surely have furnished a princess of suitable years and accomplishments, and congenial tastes; or, in default of a Haytian beauty, Queen Pomare might have , supplied from among her relatives one of those Otaheitian Houris, celebrated for their expertness in swimming and in the art of love; and considering that "L'Empire c'est la Paix," there would have been a singular appropriateness in selecting an Empress of "Pacific" origin. Besides, there was another and a most brilliant chance open to the fresh-dubbed Majesty of France. We have not heard that, except on the boards of New York, the immortal Lola has formed any fresh engagement; and considering the nature of the alliance between the Countess of Landsfeldt and one of the most ancient princely houses of Ger many, a more suitable consort could hardly have been found for a Potentate who is the very imper sonation of antagonism to the principle of legitimacy. —John Bull. AMERICAN STATISTICS.—During the past year 299,504 aliens arrived at New York, of which number 117,537 were from Ireland, and 118,126 from Germany. In 1851 the excess of Irish over the Germans was 93,373. The German immigration had increased by 48,248 persons over the previous year, Whilst the Irish had decreased 45,719. The German immigrants were of the poorest class. The immigration from England was 31,275, showing an increase of upwards of 3,000 on the previous year. The immigra tion from France and Switzerland had increased twenty five per cent. The number of British vessels which arrived at New York was, 49 steam-boats, 84 ships, 252 barques, 407 brigs, an d 22 schooners. Th ese numbers of course include vessels belonging to the British possessions. POPULATION OF THE CANADAS.—The recent Cana dian census returns, for 1852, state that the population of Lower Canada, which, in 1827, was 471,876, has nearly doubled during the subsequent twenty-five years, and numbers at the present time 890,261 souls ; while that o f Upper Canada, which, i n 1842, was 486 ,055, has also nearly doubled, and now amounts to 952,004 ; of these there are natives of England and Wales Scotland Lower Canada.

It mt admitted that in 1810 the marriage of N Marie Louise was a Tvolution. 0 and to 1 great event, future, a real ge for tl as tl tion to , the national pride, ancient and of the house of who had been so long at war with us, was seen to solicit the alliance of the elected chief of a new empire. Under the last reign, on the contrary, the amour propre of the country had to suffer, when the heir to the Crown solicited fruitlessly, during several years, a princely alli ance, to obtain it only in a secondary rank and in a dif ferent religion. " When, in presence of old Europe, one is borne on by the force of a new principle to the height of ancient dynasties, it is not by giving an ancient character to one's escutcheon, (envieillissant son blason,) and by seeking to introduce oneself at all costs into a family, that one is accepted. It is rather by ever remembering one's origin, by preserving one's own character, and by adopting frankly in presence of Europe the position of parvenu—a glorious title when one obtains it by the free suffrages of a great people. Thus, obliged to depart from precedents followed to the present day, my marriage became a private affair, and there remained only the choice of the person. " She who has been the object of my preference is of distinguished birth. French in heart, by education, by the recollection of the blood shed by her father in the cause of the empire, she has, as a Spaniard, the advantage of not having in France a family to whom it might be necessary to give honours and fortune. Endowed with all the qualities of the mind, she will be the ornament of the throne ; in the day of danger she would be one of its courageous supporters. A Catholic, she will address to heaven the same prayers with me for the happiness of France. In fine, by her grace and her goodness she will, I have the firm hope, endeavour to revive in the same position the virtues of the Empress Josephine. " I come, then, Messieurs, to announce to France that I have preferred the woman whom I loge and whom I respect, to one who is unknown, and whose alliance would have had advantages mixed with sacrifices. Without disdaining any one I yet yield to my inclina tions, but after having taken counsel from my reason and my convictions. In fine, by placing the independence, the qualities of the heart, domestic happiness, above dynastic prejudices and the calculations of ambition, I shall not be less strong because I shall be more free. " Soon proceeding to. Notre Dame I shall present the Empress to the people and to the army ; the confidence they have in me assures me of their sympathy, and you, Messieurs, on learning better to appreciate her whom I have chosen, you will allow that on tl been inspired by Providence s occasion also I The Emperor then bowed, and proceeded, with the same ceremonial as on entering, to his private apartments.

It is stated that Napoleon Bonaparte (Jerome's son) is to be married to the young Princess of Wagram, and that all the preliminaries have been settled. The Princess of Wagram's grandmother was a Princess of Bavaria, and as the mother of Napoleon Bonaparte was a Princess of Wurtemberg, he will find himself connected with most of the sovereigns of Europe. Great preparations are making for the ball to be given to the Emperor by the Senate on the 25th, which is intended to be the most splendid of the season. A sum of 80,000 fr., including 25,000 fr. given by Prince Jerome, is allotted for the expense, and it is expected that a further amount will be called for. The imperial throne of 1804, which hss been preserved since that period, has been restored, and is to occupy a platform in the grand gallery of the Luxembourg, on the occasion of the ball. The Paris correspondent of the Augsburg Allgemeine Zeitung writes :—" During the night, from the 4th to the sth instant, a cabinet council, at which the Emperor presided, was held in the Tuileries, when the question was earnestly discussed, w h e th e r the notes of recognition from the northern powers should not be rejected, and war immediately d ec l are d an d c ommenced with the utmost energy, and the exertions of all resources. The Emperor, however, it is positively known, effected the carrying of a resolution for the maintenance of peace." During the whole of the week great excitement has prevailed on the Bourse, and immense losses have been sustained by various parties in consequence of the great fall in almost every kind of stock. The excitement has now partially subsided, the Emperor's settled deter mination on the subject of his marriage not having been followed by the resignation of his ministers. The marriage is positively fired for the 29th inst. The Emperor has determined to make St. Germain his principal hunting station, on account of its proximity to Paris. Orders have been given to the principal Venear to hunt a stag in the forest there twice a week regularly through the season. Thellloniteur of Sunday week contained an article which excited great sensation. It was a reply to some remarks on the Emperor in the Times, the .alorning Chronicle, and the Morning Advertiser, and passages were quoted from each to show with what acrimony and violence these journals speak of the man who has been placed at the head of affairs by the great majority of the French people. M. Fould, who complained that he was not so well paid as some of the other great functionaries, many of whom have from 200,000 f. to 300,000 f. of annual income, has had an addition made to his salary of 50,000 f. Shade of Louis Philippe, what changes ! SWITZERLAND.—The correspondent of the Dads writes from Berlin :—" Prussia has come to an under standing with England respecting the course to be adopted towards Neufchatel, and is now negociating in order to bring the French government over to its views. The king attaches great importance to this affair." ITALY.—The Corriere Mercantile of Genoa states from Rome that the Pontifical government has sent a list of names to all the police offices of the state, with orders to arrest the persons therein mentioned, whenever they shall set foot on the Pontifical territory. The Sardinian government has sent Dr. Ghione, a learned canonist, to assist its ambassador at Rome. It is inferred from this proceeding, that the courts of Rome and Turin continue negociations on the ecclesiastical af fairs of Piedmont. SPAlN.—General Narvaez has addressed to Queen Isabella a spirited remonstrance against the " unconsti tutional projects of reform" published by her Govern ment, "which sow defiance, alarm interests, arouse po litical passions, and appear to drive the Throne towards a precipice." The reply to this document is an intimation that " his Excellency has incurred Her Majesty's highest displeasure," and an order to proceed forthwith on his mission to Vienna, from which, on, account of its frivolous character, he had prayed that he might be excused. GERMANY.—Private letters from Berlin state that Prussia will support in the Federal Diet the Hanoverian proposition to erect batteries upon the North Sea and Baltic coast. Many of the interior, and especially of the southern States regard this as purely a matter concerning the maritime States, and will oppose the application of the Federal revenues to the object. The German States have formed a convention, whereby each state is bound to receive back any native subject which will be expelled from another State. DENMARK.—The Volksthing has rejected by fifty votes against forty-five the removal of the Customs Frontier from the Eider to the Elbe. The vote was in tended to be a demonstration of general opinion against the Ministry, and was accepted as such, as the Chamber was dissolved.. 25, 1853.

On this occasiou a number of dervishes and other mussulman devotees place themselves on the ground side by side, as closely as possible to each other, with their backs upwards, and the Sheikh, or chief of their religion, passes over them on horseback.

West, which arrived in the Mersey on Thursday forenoon, we have intelligence from New York to the Bth instant. The Atlantic brought forty-three passengers, but no specie. On the 9th instant the Atlantic pass, Humboldt, and on the 17th exchang Arctic, in lat, 50 IS G. long d the steam-ship d lights with the A bill appropriating X 19,500 to discharge the judgment obtained against Colonel Fremont in England, while acting in a military capacity in the service of the United States, had passed the Senate. The New York papers contain the official correspon dence in reference to the proposition of Great Britain and France to the American Government to enter into a mutual agreement disclaiming all designs upon Cuba and guaranteeing its possession to Spain. The overthrow of the Derby ministry is the subject of much congratulation by the Liberal prints. A despatch from Louisville announces the killing of six firemen by the collapsing of a flue on board the steamer John Simonds ; and from New Orleans we have tidings of the explosion of the boilers of the steamer Fusileer, whereby some seven or eight persons were killed. In Mexico the revolution was still raging, and a Min isterial crisis had taken place. M. Mariano Yanez has resigned his office of Minister of Foreign Affairs, and his resignation was accepted. It was thought that President Arista wished to form a compromise Cabinet. The revolution was progressing in Tamaulipas with fear ful rapidity. Cardenas, the usurping Governor, has been taken prisoner by the insurgents. Canales was in hiding, it was not exactly known where. Colonel Basave, who was in command of the troops sent to Matamoros by Avolas, has surrendered unconditionally. FOREIGN MISCELLANY lion.ATio GREENOUGH, a celebrated American sculptor, died at Boston, of a brain fever, in December last. SUICIDES have of late been prevalent in Paris and its neighbourhood : several cases have occurred daily for some time past: ,oit Kiss, of Berlin, whose _Amazon in the Great Exhibition was so much admired, is occupied with a group representing the Archangel Michael in conflict with the Dragon. MR. Jolts FINN, the father of a " fast" young lady, of Melbourne, cautions all clergymen from marrying his daughter, Mary Finn, " who is under age, and to whose marriage her parents are opposed." Abd.el-Kader, accompanied by his suite, arrived at Syra on the 31st ult., on board the Labrador. Free admission to the Dardanelles was immediately granted by the Sultan, and the Emir was admitted to an audience. GOLD AT THE CAPE. — Advices from Natal, of the Bth of Noyember, announce the alleged discovery of gold in that colony. A specimen of quartz containing about two ounces had been left with a chemist at Pieterrm.critz burg, but no information could be obtained about it, ex cept that it had been brought from Mooi-river by a Dutch settler, who desired to have it tested. MELANCHOLY END.—In the Melbourne Argus it is mentioned that a pockct-book had been turned up by some diggers containing letters showing its owner to have been J. Thompson Bramwell, a late arrival, and a nephew of Alderman Thompson, of London. It contained bills for £7OO on the Bank of Australasia. Mr. Bramwell was understood to have left Melbourne for the mines with £l,OOO in cash, beside the bills, to buy gold, and he has not since been heard of. DUEL AT BOULOGNE.—An cffair of honour at Boulogne has caused no small sensation in the fashionable circles of the locality. The belligerents were an Hon. Capt. C-, of the C- Guards, and a Major M-, also holding her Majesty's commission. The cause of the quarrel was very trifling, arising out of a few words spoken at a public dinner table. The major received the fire of his adversary (happily without effect) without returning it, and imme diately afterwards acknowledged himself in the wrong. POETIC JUSTICE.-A middle-aged single man was dan gerously ill near St. Omer. He threatened to disinherit any nephew or niece that persisted in attending on him ; all but one left him—of course they could not disobey the injunctions of a dying man ; but Josephine would not desert the perverse sufferer—he might disinherit her if he liked. He died a few days ago ; and it was then disco vered that he had considered Josephine as the only relative who had proved disinterested, and he left her all his pro perty—valued at 80,000 francs. A DUTCHMAN CONSULTING THE RAPPERS.--" Ish dat you, Mrs. Hauntz ?" inquired the Dutchman. " Yes, dearest, it is your own wife, who—" " You lie, you tevil of a ghost," interrupted Hauntz, starting from his seat ; " mine frow speak noting but Dutch, and she never said tearest' in her life,--it vas always, Hauntz, you tief I' or, Hauntz, you tirty slikamp !' " and the Dutch man hobbled from the room well satisfied that the " rap ping spirits" were all humbug, and that he was safe from any further communications with his shrewish "frow" on this earth.—American paper. A CITY OF Does.—A Madras paper contains interest ing canicidal statistics for the curious, from which it ap pears that in five years Madras had been relieved of about 19,500 dogs, whose yelling had been silenced for ever by a very summary and efficacious process, at an expense for slaughtering of £253. The period for authorising cant cide commences with the 15th of April, and terminates with the 15th of September of each year, a period of fi ve months ; so that on an average, 800 dogs were destroyed in the brief period of one month by the club of the dog-killer, and thus put beyond the possi bility of getting rabid. DEATHS FROM STARVATION.—A married woman was found in her room, in the village of Lansingburg, (Pa.) quite dead on the 22nd December. When discovered the body was found in a sitting posture against the wall, and the room presented the appearance of the most abject want. She had two small children—one of them a little boy three years old, was found in the bed, the other an infant of fifteen months, was found upon the floor, al most dead, its life being only preserved by the warmth communicated to its .body by a dog, which had kept it s midnight vigil, laying close by and partly ;across the in fant sleeper's vital parts. PLEASURES OF THE Taopics.—On Wednesday morn ing the bar-keeper of the Pavilion Hotel, Taboga, not appearing at the usual hour, Captain M'Kinnev, the proprietor of the house, proceeded to his room to call him, when, to his astonishment and horror, he found him insensible and bathed in blood. After the usual restoratives were applied, the bar-keeper stated that on the previous evening, after retiring, he remembered ex periencing the most delightful sensations, as of fanning, which soon put him into a deep sleep, and he had no con sciousness of the attack made upon him until the morn ing. The only wounds by the bat were two small spots on each of the great toes, from which it is calculated the man must have lost at least half a gallon of blood. He is at present so weak as to be unable, for a short time, to attend to his usual business.—Panama Star. THE ERICSSON CALORIC SHIP.—The New York Tri bune says :—" The performance of the caloric -ship Erics son, on Tuesday, the 4th instant, is considered entirely conclusive. The vessel went down the harbour with the wind and tide at the rate of 14 miles an hour. The engi neer allowed the fires to go entirely out while the vessel lay at anchor below. On the following day they were rekindled, and the ship was propelled back against both wind and tide at the rate of Vs miles an hour, with but a partial application of power. There were some imper fections in the working of the machinery, arising merely from defective adjustment, or imperfect packing; but nothing that was reckoned as casting any doubt whatever upon the entire and perfect success of the great experiment with the ship and engine as they now stand." The New York Herald, of the Bth instant, says :—" The Ericsson was put under caloric early on Tuesday mo r ning, and started from Williamsburg between nine and ten o'clock. At 9 hours 56 minutes she passed the flag-staff on Gover nor's Island, and at 10 hours 30 minutes and 30 seconds she was abreast Fort Diamond, th us ma ki ng a di s tance of 7a- miles in 34 minutes and 30 seconds. From thence she proceeded down the bay, rounded to below Spithead- buoy at 11 hours 21 minutes, and there anchored in consequence of a snow squall. She returned on Wednesday, and anchored off the battery at about two o'clock in the afternoon. The dist ance b e t ween the stated points on Governor's Island and Fort Diamond being accurately known by triangulation to be 7 miles 660 yards, the speed attained was as stated about 14 miles an hour. The con sumption of fuel is ascertained to be only six English tons per 24 hours, a saving, as compared with steam-ships, of more than 80 per cent. As the ship draws 16 feet 10 inches on an even keel, this performance at a first trial has astonished all concerned in the enterprise.'
