LATEST AMERICAN NEWS.

M'Clellan has made several attempts to cross the
Potomac, but had been repulsed. On the other
hand Confederate General Stuart had re-crossed the
Potomac at Williamsport, Maryland, but again re-
crossed into Virginia. The Confederates did not
appear in force opposite M'Clellan, on the Virginian
bank of the river, but it was supposed, and perhape
with good reason, that they were in ambush at no
great distance. The South claims the capture of 46
pieces of artillery at Harper's Ferry. The Confede-
rates have destroyed the Ohio and Baltimore Rail-
way between Harper's Ferry and Cumberland. The
Confederate General Bragg had summoned the
Federal commander at Louisville, Kentucky, to
surrender that city; the demcnd was refused, and
an immediate attack upon the place was contem-
plated. General Kirby Smith was to hold Federal
General Buell in check while Bragg dealt with
Louisville, but it would appear that Buell had con-
trived to reach the threatened city. It was
rumoured that the Confederates had crossed Black.
water in force, and were menacing Norfolk and

Suffolk. Au engagement, it is said, occurred on
the 19... h ult., south of Juba, on the Mississippi, be.
tween nosenemnz and Price. The battle seems to
have been undoeisive, the Fedorals—as the Con-
federates retreated during the night, and left,
according to tho report, 250 prisoners in the hands
-if the enemy—having, perhaps, had the advantage.
The Confederate Governor of Louisiana had threa-
tened Butler with retaliation in the event of the
bad conduct of the Federal troops ontside the city
of New Orleans being continued. Butler replied
that he should retaliate if the threat of the Governor
nero carried into effect.

A WORD TO FEMALES.

The local debility and irregularities which are the
especial annoyance of the weaker sex, and which, when
neglected, always ahorten life, are relieved for the time
being and prevented for the time to come, by a course
of this mild but thorough alternative.

NERVOUS DISORDERS.
Any derangement of these delicate organs affects disas-
trously both the body and the mind. To the nervous
invalid Holloway's Pills are an article of vital necessity.
They impart tone and vigour to the internal organs,
and consequently to the nervous system, which per-
vades and connects them. Hence their marvellous
cures of hysteria, low spirits, spasms, fits, headache,
nervous twitchings, and other kindred complaints,
which are all radically removed by the use of these in-
valuable Pills.

Holloway's Pills are the best remedy knows in the
world for the following diseases :

Asthma ties Evil
Bilious Complaints; Fevers of all kinds Sore Throats

RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE,

11ETERODOXT IN M CHIMAL—A. new work is now
passing through the press, which, in the boldness and
startling natal% of its views, gees, it is said,, even
beyond the celebrated " Essays and Roger's." It
will enhance the interest attaching to such RII announce-
ment to learn that the atithor of the forthcoming
work, which is saki to be of a semi-scientific and
theological character, is understood to be one of our
bielmpli. The friends of the author, apprehensive of the
results to his sacerdotal position and character from
such untoward revelations of opinion, have, it is under-
stood, earnestly endeavoured, but in vain, to dissnade
the right rev, prelate from its publication, It is,
moreover, asserted that so conscious is the episcopal
writer that his work is not harmony with his declara-
tions on assuming his spiritual functions, that he is
prepared to resign his see rather than forego the
privilege of disburdening his conscience on the disputed
questions which form the subject-matter of his lucubra-
Cons.

It I s stated that progress has been made towards a
second £100,090 for the Nonconformist Bicentenary
Commemoration Fund, All right ; but it Imams strange
that for a cause which would bless every inhabitant of
this country, and benefit all the world, the fire
thousand has not yet been reached.

A MINGITHR TAKING OFF TIIB COAT TO PREACH.—
On Sunday week a Methodist minister in the west of
l'ornwall, having to preach to a crowded audience, and
the heat being very oppressive said, before he gave out
his text, "I have seen men strip to curse, and swear,
and fight, and run a race; and now I will take off my
coat to preach the Gospel, and I am not ashamed to do
it." lie then took off his coat, and preached in his
shirt sleeves.

The Chief Commissioner of the Sanitary Report,
visited the Docks to inspect the Puna Trak imported by
HORNIMAN & CO., LONDON, from having on investiga-
tion found that many teas In general use are covered
by the Chinese with an objectionable powdered colour
which is drank when the tea is made. Horniman's
Green is a natural dull olive,—not bluish,—the Black
is not intensely dark; by importing tholes( uncoloured,
the Chinese cannot disguise and pass off as the best,
brown wintery flavourless sorts, consequently, Horni-

MR: DISRAELI AT AYLESBURY—The Right Hon. B.
Disraeli attended the meeting of the Royal Central
Bucks Agricultural Association at Aylesbury on Thurs-
day evening, and deliVered a speech of considerable
length, chiefly Upoh agriculturaltopica. He urged that
the agriculture of the kingdom generally had been
greatly improved by the institution of the Agricultural
Society, but lie advocated the amalgamation of the
various local and district societies into one great county
association. He then proceeded to combat the objec-
tions which were raised to the prizes awarded by agri-
cultural associations, and in particular to the rewaixls
given to labourers for long servNi. It was said that
the society had no right to come forward in so ostenta-
tions a manner to reward the merit of the labourer
and his excellence and skill in Ids calling, but that it
was a matter which ought to be left solely to the em-
ployer. It appeared to him (Mr. Disraeli) that a more
weak and fallacious argument was never adduced. The
other day a peer of the realm gained a prite at Buck-
ingham for horned stock ; but MS did hot suppose that
Lord Southampton felt ashamed or disgraced because
lie obtained llve guineas or a silver cup on that occa-
sion. tin the contrary, he had no doubt that Lord
Southampton felt excessively pleased, and received
the intelligence with the delight which any
man who had succeeded in any object be
had at heart would naturally fedi He could
not see why, when holditig out emulation
to the higher classes iti order to stimulste them to
increased excellence, they should shut out all other
classes iron the exercise of that same principle. The
right hon. gentleman then referred to the speech
recently delivered by Mr. Walter, inemher for Berk-
shire, against the practice of rewarding labourers, and
contended that the remarks of Mr, Walter carried their
own refutation with them, inasmuch as be declared
that the labettrers of Berkshire objected to take service
with a farmer who was not a member of an agricultural
association. In conclusion the tight hon. gentleman
congratulated the nountry upon the state of the harvest,
and tinted the farmers in the time of their prosperity
not to forget the terrible visitation which had afflicted
the manufacturing operatives of Lancashire, Cheshire,
and Yorkshire, and which had been brought upon them,
not by their own folly or the inscrutable decrees of
Providence, but by the passions of men. He expressed
a fear that a more gloomy time was rapidly approaching,
and that the *hole country would cheerfully respond
to any general measure which might be devised for
alleviating the distress which prevailed. The right
honourable gentleman was received with great enthu-
siaaln.

The Armstrong guns tested at Woolwich last week
inot with some serious reverses by tile bursting of no
loss than three of the 100-pounders during proof at the
butt on Thursday 'and the preceding day. On Thursday
two of these huge guns, loaded with an over-proof
()barge of 2741 b. of powder, and a llO'b. solid shot,
burst the B coil, immediately behind the trunnions.
The coil and the internal tube were severed, and the
portion of the tube renaining in the breech-piece was
also rent and torn in several places longitudinally by
the concussion. The third glen was separated in the
centre (Alm barrel or chase, and gave way transversely,
almost rts though cut through with a raw. Each of the
guns had been fired for 801110 days past experimentally
to test the vent pieces ; end had fired over 200 rounds.

STATISTICS.

The total revenue of the United Kingdom, for the
year ending March 31, 1862, including' halmces," &c.,
to the amount of £2,674.620, was £69,811,621 ; the
expenditure (including £970,000 for fortifications)
£72,223,627—1eaving a deficit of £2,412,006, Exclusive
of Post-office, Crown Lands, and sale of "Old Stores,"
the taxes properly so called yielded £65,816,780.
Towards this I,IIUI, Customs and Excise Duties con-
tributed £42,024,955, of which £13,647,088 were levied
from enumerated articles of food, including tea, sugar,
coffee, &c. ; £19,565,949 from articles of drink, includ-
ing malt and hope; and £5,596,211 from tobacco and
snuff. The whole yield of the Income and Property
Tax was £10,471,207 ; of the Land Tax. £1,134,983.
HOPS. —Foreign bops are gradually rising into favour
in England, if the increase in the imports is a test of
the estimation in which they are held ; for, according
to the Board of Trade returns, in the eight months
ending 1862, 23,984 cwts. were brought into this
country, against 1,406 owls, in a like period in 1860.
CONSUMPTION OF PRPPSR.—In the first eight months
of 1862, 8,937,610 lbs. of pepper were imported into
the United Kingdom, being an increase of upwards of
three millions of pounds over a like period in 1861.
IMPORTATION OP WINP.S.—A reference to the Board
of Trade returns will show that the reduction of the
duty on French wines is having the desired effect of
increasing tiro sale of these beverages in this country.
In the first eight months of 1860, when the duty was
at the old rate, the importations only reached 909,031
gallons, but in the corresponding periods of 1861 and
1862. when a reduction was effected, the quantities im-
ported were respectively 1,675,400 and 1,356,764
gallons. On the other hand, it will be found
that the importations of Cape wines is greatly on the
decline, only 127,124 gallons having reached this country
in the eight months ending August, 1862, against
318,018 gallons in a Biwilar period in 1860, and
238,451 gallons in 1861. Spain, as usual, occupies the
first place as a wine producing country, 2,641,640
gallons having passed through the English Custom-
homes in the first eight months of the present year.
TALLOW FROM AUSTRALIA.—During the past three
years the importations of tallow from our Austra-
lian colonies have been largely augmented. From the
Board of Trade returns just issued we find that in the
month of August, 1860, but 2 cwts. reached this
country, which was increased to 4,439 and 6,695 cwts.
in the corresponding months of 1860 and 1861; the
imports for the eight months ending August allowing,
for 1860, 2,418 cwts. ; 1861, 13,823 mats. ; and 1862,
51,286 cwts.

A PACX.OF FOXHOUNDS POISOHXD.—A very serious
misfortune has occurred to the East Lothian pack since
Saturday. On the day in question they were out at
the Kilduff cover for cub hunting They returned to
Salton kennels in the afternoon, apparently well
enough, and fed as usual. Nothing was observed
wrong with any of them till Sunday afternoon when
the huntsman noticed several of them exhibiting
symptoms of indisposition. This increased very
rapidly, and in the course of the evening all the hounds
of the pack which had been out on Saturday were very
seriously ill with vomiting, dre.. Professional assistance
was obtained on Monday—Mr. Garngee, sem, Edinburgh,
and Professor Dick having both been out at the kennels
during the week. Since the dogs took ill, seven of the
pack have died, and there are as many more of which
very faint hopes of recovery are entertained. The
symptoms observed before death were very similar to
those produced by strychine, and, in the opinion of
Professor Dick, this is probably the cause of death In
order to ascertain the fact, portions of the viscera of
one of the dogs has been forwarded to Edinburgh for
chemical analysis. A quantity of water taken from a
pond near Kilduff, and iwhich the animals are
known to have drunk of during the Saturday, has also
been sent into Edinburgh to have the same teat applied.

Ma. COBDEN IN INVERNICes.—The distinguished corn

here on Wednesday, and intended to take up their
quarters at the Station Hotel, but, the plane being
crammed with visitors, Mr. Marshall procured comfort-
able lodgings for them in the house of Mr. Jack, shoe.
maker, who paid them every attention, and who is
naturally very proud of the honour of entertaining such
visitors. They left here by steamer on Friday morning,

are particularly scaroe, so also have been partridges as

The former were never known to be so scarce as they
are this season, and the shortness of the supply is
attribntable to the groat quantities of rain which fell
almost incessantly throughout the hatching and rearing
season. The most skilled sportsmen have, as yet, met
with but little success, and altogether the pheasant
shooting season of 1862 is far below any of lite prede-

OUlt WOODNW WALLS.—The batch of sailing Men of
war which were lately put tip for sale by orders of the
Board of Admiralty realised nearly £lB,OOO. This,
when the number and wise of the slops are tkken into
consideration, is but a very small sum, probably about
a 2Stlt part of what they origirrilly coat, but when we
state that the largest purchases were made by Messrs.
emitle and Co., the well-known ship breakers and
vendors of firewood, we need say no more in reference
to their commercial value, or in favour of the prudent
step taken by the Admiralty in getting rid of so much
uselesalumber.

We learn that the National Rifle Association compe-
titive trial of small bore rifles, advertised to take place
at Rythe early in February, will, by permission, take
place at the Government experimental ranges in Wool-
wich Arsenal, where much greater facilities for such •
competition can he afforded. All the rides will be fired
from the Government fixed rests, and each competitor
will be furnished with a slide, to which lie will himself
have to fit and fix his rifle in the way he thinks beat.
Drawing, will at the game time be furnished of the
mode in which rifles Cr. fitted to the slides, according
to the plan now in operation at Woolwich, and likewise
according to that adopted by Mr. Whitworth. Comps-
titors may at any time previous to the trial go to the
Woolwich Arsenitl for the purpose of seeing that their
rises are properly fitted to the slides and rests and in
order to give ample time for this purpose the irial will
not take place until the end of February.

people were relieved than on the previous week, and the
condition of hundreds of working people in that locality
is described as most deplorable. About £l,OOO has been
raised to relieve the distress at Rochdale. On Monday
a meeting was held, the Mayor in the chair, to consider
what should be done to alleviate the condition of the
operatives now out of work. Mr. Bright, hf .P., was one
