LONDON, MONDAY, NOV. 7, 1864.

We have three days later news from America
by the Hecla, with some further accounts of the
would•be great victory of SHERIDAN, but they add
but little to the details a;ready given. He continued
the pursuit until LON GSTREET turned upon him,
and then—we must wait until the next great
battle takes place. According to the movements
of HOOD, matters seem to be getting more serious
with SHERMAN, who found it necessary to leave
Atlanta in order to keep open his communications,
if that be possible. SHERMAN left one corps at
Atlanta, but that was so hard pressed that it was
actually in a state of siege. The Confederate
cavalry were so active that not a man coud leave
Atlanta for fear of capture. Nor were the Federals
much better off in the direction of Knoxsville,
whither they were retreating from Bull's Gap,
which they had evacuated. Indeed, the position of
the Federals in the northwest was anything but
hopeful, and it is expected that SHERMAN will en.
dcavour to make his escape as beet he can. The
reported defeat of General PRICE in Missouri is
not confirmed; on the contrary, he is carrying on
the campaign with increased vigour. The elections
in Pennsylvania are stated to he cfficially carzied
in favour of the Democrats with a majority of 150
for the home vote, President DAVIS has made a
speech full of hope and confidence, stating that
all his attempts to induce the Federals to
come to terms of peace had been treated
with contempt, and that he was resolved to
conquer peace and to secure the independence of the
South by the sword, and the patriotic efforts of his
gallant countrymen. Oa the whole the news is
favourable to the South. As for the North, we
behold them carrying on the same system of civil
tyranny. President LINCOLN has published a
letter declining to interfere with Governor JOHN-
STON'S proclamation, requiring a test oath from
presidential voters, which is not surprising, since
its effect is so entirely in his favour. The Federal
news must now be looked upon with more sus-
picion than ever, for all that we hear confirms
the impression that they are doing their utmost to
secure the elections, if not by fair means, by any
other that is practicable and promises to be wore
efficacious. It behoves all who are more immedi-
ately concerned in the struggle to look to them-
selves and to bu aware of the tactics of their crafty
and most unscrupulous foes, who will stop at
nothing to gain thiir ends.

All that opp.atains to tho transactions of the
Royal National Lifeboat Institution are deeply in-
teresting, alike from their intrinsic importance, and,
from their intimate ccnnection with the interests of
the community. The services of the society bring
home their welcome labours to every home and
hearth throughout the country, and no family that
can count its members who occupy their business
in the great waters, or, even only occasions :Iy, tra-
verse the deep, but may look upon this institution
as a benefit and a blessing, There is no saying
how, when, or where they may not stand in need of
to afflict@ and moire its agency, and it behoves
