SAILS. Steam-power has achieved a resplendent triumph since its first application to vessels navigating the ocean ; and, judging by the wonderful results which the past 15 years have witnessed in this respect, we are entitled to look for ward to the future prepared not to be astonished at any thing which capital and enterprise, allied to science and art, may in that particular perform. One of the most important consequences of the rapid multiplicity of steam ships on the great highways of our foreign and domestic commerce, as might have been foreseen, has been to limit the sphere of usefulness and profit of that portion of the world's mercantile which relies on wind and canvas for its powers of propulsion. Not that the multi plicity of steam ships has diminished, or is diminish ing materially, the number of sail vessels annually turned out from our ship yards, nor that there is any real reason to apprehend that steam in this or the next generation is destined to drive sails from the realms of Neptune— not that the progress and prosperity of the steam interest is going to do all this; but it is idle to deny that it is working silently, but surely. a revelation in the en tire carrying trade of the world. Speed is an indi pens able adjunct to commerce, and the sons of commerce in these modern days are schooled in a too shrewd, matter-of-fact school, to patronise vessels propelled to day as they were propelled in the days of the Phoenicians, the Scandinavians, and the Carthagenians. when the steam engine is waiting to do their bidding with a swiftness that is sometimes said to rival the wings of the wind. It is the manifest destiny of the sails to give way at some future period, in a good degree, to the engine ; for the commerce of the world is now so great and so rapidly increasing beyond any of the old landmarks of history, that .2E plus is no longer able to meet its wants or to do is bidding. But the sails, nevertheless, will always have a place on the ocean We know of no agency yet discovered that is to drive them, as some fanciful speculatists are so fond of asserting, wholly -from the seas. The sail vessel will always be needed to do its share of the constantly-increasing carrying trade of the world ; and as in the nature of things it will always be enabled to carry cheaper than its competitor that has 'a steam-engine to feed and watch, to that extent it will have an advantage which will be sure to secure for it, if not large, at least fair profits, during ordinarily prosperous times. We have, indeed, some foreshadowings of the future condition of things in the comparative state of the carrying trade as between sail vessels and steamers at this moment. The bulk of the light goods from Great Britain and the Continent is now nearly all transported by the steamers, for the rea son that these vessels come quicker, while the rates of freight are nearly as low as the sailing vessels charge. The latter, in consequence, are obliged to accept such low rates coming this way that they not unfrequently lose money on the trip. On the Atlantic the competition between the two interests is more conflicting than in other directions, and in view of these facts we may anticipate a disposition on the part of shipowners to seek, in more distant fields, the profits which seem to be transferring to their rivals trade nearer home. Long voyages for large sail vessels, we opine,will soon be the order of the day. But few persons not immediately interested have any adequate conception of the ocean steamship interest—the capital invested in it, and the number of vessels enrolled—nor to the extent which European enterprise is identified with it.—New York Shipping List. DIFFICULTIES OF ESTABLISHING A DAILY NEWSPAPER. From the New York Sunday Times. Much has been said and written upon the facilities of establishing cheap newspapers, and the practice of the United States is quoted as affording proof upon the sub ject. Our readers will think otherwise, when they peruse the following, taken from a New York paper of a late date :—We supposed, from the vigorous manner in which the Dar! , Dispatch was commenced, and the positive assurance of the publishers that it would be continued, whether or not, that it was to twcome one of our perma nent institutions. Bu', yesterday, its dissolution was announced, and it will be heard of no more among the dailies. The Dispatch has been dispatched in less time tha - any other enterprise in journalism that has been coteenenced in New York. The publishers had abundant energy, talent, and ability; but starting a new daily requires, besides all these essentials, an immense capital. Less than half a million ought not to be dreamed of. But the Dispatch depended upon two extremely slight aids for support, viz.—the success of the American Party, and " magnificent promises " from friends. Both failed, of course. The Americans had never a possibility of suc cess, and the magnificent promises of friends always tarn out magnificent humbugs. The Dispatch made one very serious mistake in relying upon party support for its existence. There is no party in existence sufficiently powerful to support a daily paper. The great Democratic Party, with all its official patronage and the liberal contributions of its members, has never been able to support a daily newspaper in New York. Any paper which hopes to exist by such means, must and ought to fall. The attempt. to support a party paper in England has been just as disastrous there as here A. paper can only live by the support which it derives from the great public, who buy because it affords them the information and the amusement which they seek. It would be just as sensible to expect to support a corner grocery by party patronage as a Daily Newspaper. The expenses of daily journalism in New York are enormous ; the public have but a faint idea of what it costs to furnish the two cents worth of reading served up to it every morning by the small Papers ; only those who are engaged in the business, have any conception of the immense outlays of money which are daily expended in obtaining the mere ephemeral news items, which form so import ant a part of the attractions of a morning paper ; the public has no conception of the amount and variety of talent which must be employed to give that variety in the topics treated of editorially in the columns of a daily paper, neither do they know how difficult it is to procure the necessary talent, even when the ability to pay amply exists. The editorial staff of a daily paper is new becom. lug a matter of great importance, and the difficulty of procuring the requisite ability to constitute such a body increases with the constantly expanding scope of the daily journal, the rivalry of opposing establishments, and the exactions of the public. There must first be the editor-in-chief, and he must be a man not only born, but educated for the post. It would be easier to procure an able commander-in-chief of an army, or a man suitable to fill the office of President of the Union, than to find one qualified to act as the editor of a daily paper. But, the editor found, then follows the difficulty of procuring the subordinates on his staff, each of whom must be endowed with his special qualification. There must be three or four writers of leading articles, well educated, variously informed, gentlemanly and honourable persons. Let what may be said of " gentlemen of the Press," their vocation requires a higher order of intellect and morals than any other of the so-called learned professions. A physician, a clergyman, or a lawyer, may succeed by mere assumption of airs, and by the various arts of charlatanry peculiar to all professions. But the newspaper writer can avail himself of no trickery; nothing bnt the real talent, cleverness, industry, and learning can avail him. After the writers of leaders comes the paragraphist, who does not make a very large figure, but who is indispensable, and the most difficult of all newspaper help to obtain. Then comes the theatrical critic, the musical critic, the agri cultural critic, the money editor, the literary editor, and the city editor. Thesa must be all men of ability, and spe cials, qualified for their station. Then there are two or three men employed to look over the papers, and pick out little :scraps of news and intelligence from all parts of the world; and then there is a host of reporters, short hand writers, correspondents, and regularily-salaried letter-writers from all the great cities both in the Old World and the new. Added to these permanent and regular attaches are the telegraphic expenses, which are enormous, To maintain this large body of able-minded and able-bodied men requires an enormous income, and the difficulty of getting them together, organizing them, and betting them to work harmoniously, must be so great that no man who has a proper understanding of the .business will ever think of establishing a daily paper by dependiug upon any party, or the magnificent promises of any friends for support. The difficulties of journalism in New Fork are much greater than they are in London, owing to the greater number of papers. In London there is, in fact, but one paper ; the Tires is the only journal, the rest are all make believe ; it absorbs all the best talent ; I.:st here, there are three papers of eqUal preten sions, of nearly equal circulation, and of very nearly equal ability. Each has a speciality of its own, but, in general ability they are about alike. The three great papers, corr,nonly called the Wall-street papers, are not much mm than advertising sheets, intended for the counting room ; but they absorb a certain amount of ability, though nothing to be compared with the is o cent papers. Seeing then how difficult and costly it must be to establish a daily paper in New York, an I to raise it up to the paying point, it will not be wondered at, for a moment, that the Dispatch, after making so fair a show should soon come to th e con clusion that the game was not worth the candle, and promptly put out its light. We trust the publishers will have better luck next time. They have deserved success if they have not obtained it. PRUDENCE.--How much regret, pain, and evil may be avoid.ed by timely forethought !

MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. On Friday information was received through a private communication from Bruges, Belgium, of a very extraordi nary occurrence, the result of a mischievous freak, which took place on the Grand Place last Sunday, jeopardising the lives of 2,500 persons, and it seems somewhat marvellous, indeed, how one half that number escaped from a fearful death. It appears that lately an English equestrian company has arrived in Bruges, and they had pitched their circus, which was covered by an extensive marque, on the Grand Place. The performance was pro. ceeding as usual on Sunday evening last, until all at once the tent, which was thickly covered with snow at the time, fell flat upon the spectators, performers, and all, bringing them beneath its folds in one confined and stiflng mass. At the time it was computed that there were 2,500 spectators present, and the performers and others connected with the circus must have made the number present nearly 3,000, so that the confu sion and uproar that ensued upon the tarpauling descend ing is more readily conceived than depicted. There were, as on all such occasions, a number of the military scat tered throughout the enclosure, and the soldiers, imme. diately drawing their swords, hacked away at the canvas, and being assisted by the other unfortunate partakers in the dilemma with knives, the marquee was quickly reduced to shreds, and thereby enabled all to escape after receiving sundry contusions, and no doubt in many in stances more serious injuries, but fortunately no life was sacrificed. However, had it not been for the promptness with which the poor creatures were released, several, if not the whole assemblage, would have been suff crtted. The cause of the tent collapsing was some miscreant severing the outside cords by which it was attached to the poles. LIVERPOnL, SATURDAY EVENING. The demand far cotton is still steady, and prices are well supported. The sales to-day were 7,000 bales, the market closing with firmness. As there have been a large number of arrivals during the last few days we may expect a considerable increase to the stock next week. The Baltic's advices have not exercised much effect upon the trade. The crop estimates are somewhat increased, averagirg 3,000,000 bales or a little over. The receipts were heavy, but this is accounted for by the increased railway communication, good roads, and high prices _ Our local Share Market opened to daywithoutac tivity. but continued very steady throughout the day.

The Money Market is in a more favourable posi tion ; and the satisfactory bank returns gazetted last night induce the belief that a further re duction of the rate of interest will be declared. Yesterday there were numerous applications for discounts, attributable to the fact that many deferred supplying themselves with means in the early part of the week, as a reduction on Thursday was considered probable. These requirements having now been satisfied, the effect of the lower rate at the Bank is more apparent ; and judging from the favourable official return published last evening, there is every reason to believe that the recovery 'in the position of the Money Market will now he rapid. Early in the spring, therefore, the influence of the late pressure will, no doubt, have been expended, and the com merce of the country may then be expected to assume larger dimensions, although the Board of Trade returns abundantly prove that the gradual developement of business has not been so much retarded as many have stated. Even with money at six and seven per cent, the Funds this morning were firm, but there is very little business. Messrs T. H. Littledale and Company, in their circular issued to-day, make the following " general re marks:"— The usual characteristics of our markets during the month of November, are dulness and limited transactions, from a general indisposition on the part of the trade to go into stock when the payments fall so near the close of the year. The past month, however, has been an excep tion, and in the face of Money at a panic price. the demand for all the leading products has been good, and never in our recollection has the value of Money had so little effect on the value of Produce. This is to be accounted for in a great measure from the light stocks and large consump tion of nearly every article, but still more from the fact of the total absence of mistrust during, the present Monq pressure. The rapid advance in the rate of discount, from 41 on Ist October to 7 per cent on the 13th November, was clearly seen to be a measure of protection on the part of the Batik of England, simply to prevent an undue drain upon them from the Continent, where rates had risen even more rapidly than with us, and to save their reserve of Bullion from the urgent demands of the Bank of France. The relaxation from the war rates was too recent to have allowed either commercial operations to become widely extended, or the new schemes of the Stock Exchange to assume a form of permanence, or an extent to endanger the credit and resources of the country. The danger was Continental, riot at home, where everything was felt to be in the soundest possible position, and as such public confidence was not for a moment shaken. The advocates of the Bill of '44 may take credit for this state of things, but it is purely exceptional, and one never con templated by the framers of the measure—it has no doubt checked speculation, but it has also checked the free transmission of orders abroad, and left us with almost famine stocks of Produce to meet a consumption for the new year, probably larger than we have ever yet known. The Consol Market was dull to-d a y, a n d p r ices were less buoyant, which was prob a bly ow i n g to the paucity of business, and the g enera l di s p os iti on evinced, as usual, to close accounts at the end of the week, otherwise the favourable Bank return, though anticipated last evening, might have pro. duced an additional improvement. At the close of business, after official hours, an attempt was made to depress the market, but an influential buyer soon gave support to prices. The transfer books being now shut, the market presented a quieter aspect than usual, but some special transfers of Consols were effected at 941, 95, including the dividend. The Account prices were 04 to 94! all day, with-int the dividend, which was about yesterday's closing value.

A few first cla's buyers have been in the market, but they have confined their operations princ.ipally to goods of the lower qualities, and their purchases have not been ostensive. In the manufacturing dis tricts the loWering of the rate of discounts by the Bank of England hag infused more activity, as well ,as confidence, in an improved state of trade, and prices arc expected to rule considerably higher. At Bradford there has been much animation in the worsted trade, and a very satisfactory business has been transacted in most branches et enhanced prices. At Halifax businea has been rather dull, and the app cmrguce of the mar k e t i s by no means encouraging. In yarn and piece goods no change has taken pl ace.

Narrow T cloths and medium qua li t i es h ave a l so b een in request at hi g h er quotations, Trade at Birmingham is reported to be steady, and upon the whole brisk, ' having been so from the coulto9rlcernent of the pre. sent quarter, and is still without any material fluc tuation; and beyond an uneasy feeling as to the price of copper, there is little in relation to business con cerns generally to call for remark. The discount allowed upon all articles of brass foundry, may be taken at 5 per cent less than it was a fortnight ago From the district, the accounts relative to the state of the manufacturing trades are fully as satisfactory as they are in this town. The indications of renewed animation in the iron trade, to which reference was made last week, have been fully maintained; at the mills and forges there is decidedly more activity—home consumers are giving out larger orders; for bars there is decidedly more enquiry, and a considerable quantity of sheets and, plates are being manufactured for markets in the Medi terranean. The Welsh ironmasters have given notice to the workmen of a reduction of ten per cent upon their wages ; this, with the view to a reduction of the price of iron 20s per ton. A new field of iron ore has been discovered in Wiltshire. The coal trade is remarkably brisk. The Mining Market is reported to be steady. We take the following from this day's Mining Journal : From the further rise in the price of copper, we may anticipate that new life will be thrown into copper mining, and that an enormous demand will spring up for shares in copper mines. The advance would, no doubt, have had a beneficial effect on the market to day had it been known, but such was the secrecy of the smelters that the sharebrokers were in total darkness. However, the higher the price of copper the greater the value of shares, and we must therefore congratulate the miner upon the present highly favourable prospects of the copper market. The announcement to-oay is an increase of 9/. per ton on manufacturing qualities, and Id. per lb. on manufactured, and a gradual improvement in the standard may be looked for. Already the price is the same as that which ruled from Nov., 1853, to within the last few months; yet there is every probability of a still further advance being established. There is a good demand for tin, whilst the supply is comparatively small, which justifies us in expecting an upward tendency. The imports of the precious metals during the past week have been to a large amount, viz , about 692,1501., consisting of 64,1501. by the Canada, 98,4601. by the Fulton, and 112,810/. by the Baltic, from the United States; 137,0001. from the \Vest Indies and Pacific by the Atrato, 13,7001 from the Peninsula by the Euxine, and 266,0001. in silver from the Continent. The following are the par ticulars of the imports by the Cyclone, from Sydney, 1,126 ounces of gold, or 4,500 i ; the Fulton, from America, 98,460 dollars; the Canada from America 330,707 dollars, or 64,150/, ; the Atrato from the West Indies, 880,387 dollars, or 176,1001., of which 464,315 dollars were in silver, and the remainder gold ; the Equator, from Adelaide, 100 ounces of gold, or 4001 ; the Telegraph from Ant werp. 38 sacks 1 case 6 brls. bullion ; the Ravens bourne from Antwerp, 88 cases 119 bags bullion ; the Siene from Boulogne, 2 cases of bullion ; the Euxine from the Mediterranean, 13,700/ ; the Caledonia from Hambro, 28,0001. in silver bars; the Baltic from New York, 451,362 dollars or 90,5001 ; the Baron Osy from Antwerp, 37 cases of bullion. The total exports of specie amount to about 875,4721, exclusive of 300,000/. taken by private hands to the continent, and include by the La Plata (s) for the West Indies, 66,6921; the Ripon s) for Alexandria and India, 807,2511, of which 8.6201 was in gold and the rest silver, divided as follows : Gold to Alexandria, 2 0001; Ceylon. 3.2001; Madras, 2,4201; and Singapore. 1,0004 Silver to Bombay, 448,7051; Madras, 10,0001; Cal cutta, 157,324/; Singapore, 24.5921; Hong Kong, 62,798 ; Canton, 30,6921; and shanghae, 64,511/. As the recent arrivals of gold front Australia have exercised such a beneficial influence on the Money Market, some anxiety is evinced to ascer tain when further remittances may be expected The last advices mention that the Red Jacket was to leave Victoria on the 25th Sept. ; if so she will soon be due. The William Money and the True Briton, if they sail on the d tys advertised, may be looked for daily ; but it is not supposed ether of these two vessels will bring much gold. The Rtd Jacket, however, has, no doubt, a very valuable specie freight. A new Bank of Issue has been founded at Seville, with a capital of 18,000,000 of reals, represented by 9,000 shares of 2,000 reals each A M Cavestany has been plavel at the head of this establishment, under the title of Royal Co.rn missioner. The privileges are to last for 25 years. The advices from Paris, which have only just arrived, owing to tha unfavourable state of the weather in the Channel, report that the alteration in the Bank rate of discount here was generally anticipated, and it therefore exercised very little Jeff ect on the Bourse. The 3 per cent. Rentes closed yesterday at 69f. 50c. for money, and at 69f. 95c. for account, the rise in the latter being 20 centimes. Accounts from Berlin state that the monthly return of the Bank of Prussia, which has been published, shows an increase in the bullion of 988,000 thalers compared with the previous state ment, while the ctrculation of notes was diminished to the extent of 1,558,400 thalers. IMPROVED WRITING INK.—What a delicious treat it is to be blest with free, flowing writing ink. We have often been disposed to quarrel with our very finger ends when compelled to use some of those abominable quasi-fluids called ink. Mr. E T. Hall, of South John street, has pro duced an ink, which we have tried, and we do not hesitate to pronounce it one of the best kind we ever tuel. It flows freely from the pen, and is amongst other things distinguised by its affinity and intensity of colour.— Northern Daily Times, 24th October, 1853.—501 d in Bottle, 6d, Is, and 2s each.--Advt. illr y GOOD NEWS FOR ,WRITERS.--A very ingenious • mcnt, called Hancock's Safety Inkstand, has re been brought under our notice, and, such is our expe ce 4sl of its value, that we strongly recommend a t ' .to all,who'are troubled with the sediments and ions to which ordinary inkstands are subject. The c r tion of Mr. Hancock's production is extremely simple, but so efficacous that it enables a man to supply himsf with a stock of ink at one time which will keep clear and *prac ticable for a twelvemonth.

IMPURE WATER—Daring a series of lectdres at the Polytechnic Institution, in London, by Mr. Pepper, on this all-important subject (whose lectures have afforded so much interest and instruction), he particularly urged the absolute necessity of the adoption of some stringent I measures in order to.insure, as far as possible, a wholesome supply to the public, and particularly cautioned persons predisposed to cholera infection against the use of water in its naturally sophisticated state, because all water, from whatever source received, cannot be free from other substances, such as clay, flinty matter, obalk, sulphate of lime, nitre, common salt, sulphate of potash, animalcules, &c., and urged, in conjunotion with Professor Faraday, the absolute necessity of filtration, in order to remove such mechanical" impurities. There can be no doubt, however, that when the Liverpool water is properly filtered, it will be found to be among the best descriptions of water supplied to the public. It is much to be lamented that fraudulent venders of feeble and ineffective imitations of valuable inventions are numerous in large towns and cities; we would recommend our friends, therefore, to inspect the warehouses of :Messrs. Saunders and Co., Parker-street, Church-street. It is but justice to their inventive genius to!pronoune , their filters far superior to anything of the kind ever offered to the public, being unique in structure, judicious in development of power and action, and reduced to a price with the reach of all classes.

Kossuth delivered a lecture a few nights ago in Queen-street hall, Edinburgh, at the request of the Young Men's Christian Institute, the subject being—" Compli cation with the Neapolitan Government—Diplomatic Revelations of England's former interventions in Southern Italy—Practical applications to the present case." Bailie Brown Douglas presided. The hall was filled in every part. M. Kossuth was received with loud and repeated cheers. He said—lt would be his task now to lay before the meet ing some observations regarding the interference of Eng land and France in Neapolitan affairs. The question was everywhere repeated, " What meant these cavillings and bickerings about Naples? " One day it was a naval demonstration, another day it was a new congress that was talked of. He had learned from history to fear the very name of congress. 'f In any demonstration or congress which might take place, Britain would he acting in con sort with Louis Napoleon, who had risen on the ruins o; liberty to a despot's throne. Of the relative position of Britain in this alliance he would say nothing ; butf while Mr. Roebuck had said, " England must go where, ever her big brother chooses to lead the way," the leading Minister of Austria, Baron de Bruck, remarked only a few weeks ago, when speaking of general European politics, " Of England it is unnecessary to speak, as she is no longer a first-rate Power, but with France, Austria is in very good accord." He trusted, however, that the British lion would show itself a lion still; but, when we saw the British Government and Louis Napoleon acting together in affairs of European policy, the matter must be considered from a Bonapartist rather than an English point of view, in order to a correct estimate of the pur poses and aims of their concerted action. The inter ference in Neapolitan affairs might, therefore, be intended in the first place to prevent the French people from pon dering too closely on their own domestic concerns. Bona parte was well aware that Italy was a volcano ready at any moment to explode. To prevent the explosion at any hazard, was the real object of his solicitude. This was quite natural ; and taking it at a starting 'point, they might judge infallibly of the acts and designs of Bona parte. The popular movement was likely to take effect in Naples and Sicily, but not because the Government of Naples was the most wicked and tyrannical—for certainly the Austrian court martial did not yield the palm of arbi trary cruelty to the Neapolitan judges; besides, the Neapo litan Government was at least Italian, and native, and there fore less hateful than the Austrian, which was.foreign and alien. But it was not the tyranny of the King of Naples that made Louis Napoleon fear that the volcano might explode there soonest; his reason for fear was that the Neapolitan Government was weakest in means of resist ante to the popular movement—it had only, in fact, some foreign merconaries to rely upon, and therefore Louis Napoleon wished to prevent revolution ; but he sought to appear in the character of a " protector ' of humanity, because the word had such a fine sound, and the world liked to be imposed upon. (Laughter.) M. Kossuth then referred to the it:thence exerted by Britain in Neapolitan and Italian affairs, and cited several instances of the per_ fly of the British Government. He then came to the in terference of France and Britain in Italian affairs in 1845. Sicily had been abandoned to the Bourboes. Lord Pal• merston had himself stated in Parliament that the English Government had acted all along a most friendly part—he dial not say to the people—hut to the King of Naples. But it was time, he said, to come to the present interference. What was the object of this interference? As gathered from official documents, the object was to preserve the peace of Europe, which was endangered by the misrule of the Neapolitan despot. And why was this ? Because a spark from Naples would set all Italy—perhaps Spain, France, Garmany, Poland —in a blaze, which would run like wildfire over Continental Europe. What was the cause ? Because the nations were oppressed, and robbed of their birthright—fteedom. (Cheers.) They wanted to preserve peace. Peace was a sacred word. He longed for peace. His heart yearned for the time when the nationalities of Europe—restored to their birthright of freedom—should unite into a hallelujah of concord and amity, when they should "beat their swords into ploughshares and their spears into pruning hooks,"— " When man to man, the world o'er, Shell brithers be, and a' that—" But oppression was not peace ; security to the slaveholder was a curse to the slave; and tranquillity to tyaants was desolation to a hopeless vmrld. (Loud cheers.) It was natural that Napoleon should tremble at a spark from Italy upon the gunpowder of oppressed nations ; but what reason was there that free Britain should lend her shoulder to prop up the tottering thrones of European despotism ? (Cheers.) The security of Queen Victoria rested on the affections of her people, and not on such securities as upheld the Bombas, the Hapsburgs, and the Bonapartes. (Loud cheers.) M. Kossuth concluded by addressing some observations to the Institute, by whose request he had appeared on that platform. He called upon its members to unite in its endeavours to apply the spirit of Christianity to every relation in life, whether in the capacity of patriots or of citizens—by such means the tottering structures of despotism would be overthrown, and new glory be added to the many glories of the British people. (Protracted applause.) " THE NEW SAFETY INKSTAND.—We could scarcely believe that we had to contend with to many minor grievances in writing until this admirable invention was brought to our notice. It exempts your ink from mildew, evaporation, dust, and oxidation, and at the same frac nrovents the pen from becoming overcharged."—The TVisbech Advertiser.—Price is Bd, 2s 6J, 3s, and 3a 61 each. —Advt. GREAT FIRE AT SHEFFIELD.—On Wednesday morning the Portobello hair seating works, Sheffield, were the scene of a formidable conflagration, which nothing short of the greatest efforts on the part of the fire brigade, the police, and other well-disposed persons, prevented from risirg into a still greater calami'y The buildings affected by the fire belong to Messrs. Samuel Laycock and Sats, and are occupied by them principally in the manufacture of hair seating and other hair cloth fabrics. The edifice occupies a quadrangular area of about 40 yards by 15 yards, and ie, or rather was, foar storeys hip, a greater portion of the structure having been built within the last few years. Not the least ill effect of the fire will be experienced by the workpeople, the prime:pal of whom are women and girls, numbering from 250 to 300. We fear that the loss of their usual employment will have imposed upon them the reverse of a " merry Christmas." The firemen remained, working the engines, till 12 o'clock on Wednesday. (jHOLEIta IN leetta.---The legend which ascribes to the eating of human flesh the origin of one of the most loath some of diseases. scarce offers a more horrible picture to the imagination than is presented by a letter in the a ylon Braminer of October. We have already allu:ed to the ravages made by cholera in India during the early part of this year. The latest accounts inform us that this scourge has also devastated the beautiful islands of Mauritius and Bourbon. These islands are largely supplied with pork from Patna, a province of Hindos'an, that has itself been overrun by the cholera. Both there and at Calcutta the bodies of the natives are consigned to the Ganges, instead of being interred. "Let any person," says the writer in the Ceylon paper, " at day-break start from Government House, Calcutta ' • and whether his walk be to the banks of the river, or to the banks of the canals which on three sides surround the city, he will see pigs feeding on the dead bodies of the natives that have hem thrown there during the eight ; during the clay the river police clear away and sink all that remains of the bodies. Bad as is the metropolis of India, it is nothing compared to Patna. , . , Hundreds upon hundreds of human corpses are there strewed along the strand ; and fattening, Glioule-like, upon these, are droves upon droves of swine. These seine are slaughter:el, cut up and salted into hams, bacon, and pickled pork, and then despatched to Calcutta ....The great market for this poisonous swine produce is the Mauritius and Bourbon," where it is foisted on the inhabitants as the produce of Europe. Moreover, as these swine are sold in Calcutta at three or four shillings each carcase, it is stated that the inferior class of homeward hound vessels are proyisioned with them, and thus this human-fed pork is introduced into Europe and America. To the conclusion of the writer, that this is a probable cause of the spread of cholera, we do not assenP. But we would call attention to the revolting scenes described by him ; for it is in a British possession, and under the control of British rule, that these enormities are allowed to continue. — Lancet, ~ ..
