11HE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSAIITIFS
" GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ea -
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive.
Intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Gressinith's "Government upon First Prin•

in-the-Box, 10 to 1 agst Paresseuse, 100 to 8 agst Peru.
An excellent start was made at the first attempt; Pares-
seuse, Jack-in-the-Box, Hilly Grove, and Medusa looked
most formidable to the distance, where Flash-in-the-Pan
was shut out and could not get through his horses. Oppo-
site the stand Jack-in-the-Box and Paresseuse were racing
together in front, and were joined 20 strides from the
judge by Dominie Sampson and Hilly Grove, who coming
on the outside made an interesting race to the end with the
quartette, which resulted in the last few strides in favour
of Dominie Sampson by a head. A dead heat for second
place. Hilly Grove was only beaten a head from the dead
heaters, Sister to Sage was fifth close up, and Flash-in-the-

left in the rear and never took part in the race. Tom Fool
rushed to the front, Soapstone on the off side, and The
Orphan next, Captain Cooper's horse close up, Overture
being next Revolver. At the distance The Orphan re-
ceived a shake from Hibberd, and Soapstone closed with
Tom Fool. A magnificent race with the trio from the
stand ensued, tho issue being doubtful :to the end; Soap-
stone, however, in the last few strides obtained an advan-

Ann and Tom Sayers, 100 to 6 agst Tarragone.
After a delay of about 20 minutes they were started on
pretty even terms, Blanche of Lancaster making the run-
ning to the distance, where Juliet went to the front at-
tended closely by Peignoir, and, after a capital race, Juliet
stalled off Peignoir's rush by a short head ; three lengths
separated the second and third; Kennet was fourth. The

again taken by Fitz-Avon. At the distance Ripon passed
his horses, and half way up quitted Fitz-Avon, and won in

It is stated that the West is snswering the Presi-
dent's appeal with more vigour than New York and
the Middle States. The journals of this morning
report a great war meeting at Milwaukie, at which,
it is alleged, that upwards of 50,000 persons were
present. They add that the State of Wisconsin was
thoroughly &roused, and the enthusiasm was un-
precedented; but the reports do not inform the
world how many men were induced to enlist in con-
sequence of this great enthusiasm. Remembering
as I do, that the great war meeting in New York,
at which not above 6,000 or 8,000 people were pre-
sent, and the whole proceedings at which were a
burlesque, was represented on the following morn-
ing as having been attended by one hundred thou-
sand; and that great or small, enthusiastic or the
reverse, it did not send fifty recruits to the war as
the results of its spoken patriotism, lam inclined
to believe that the great Milwaukie demonstration
will turn out to have been of as little importance to
the Government and of no help to the army. In
short the Union cause hangs fire ; and if some
signal humiliation to N'Clellan's or Pope's army
do give it an impetus, the independence of the
South is secured, and Europe may begin to regard
it as a fait accompli. _ .

And surely if there were that heartiness in the
war which there ought to be, if the North really
expected to conquer the South, there would be no
necessity for the issue of such a bulletin as that
which was penned by Mr. Secretary Stanton yester-
day, and published to-day. In this document he
revokes and annuls all furloughs and leaves of
absence on and after the 11th inst. The only
excuses to be allowed for absence of officers or
privates after that day are to be an order or leave
direct from the War-office, and proved disability
by wounds or disease contracted in the service.
"Any officer or private, says the Secretary, " whose
health permits him to visit watering-places, thea-
tres, concerts, and other places of amusement, or to
make social visits, or to walk about cities, towns,
and neighbourhoods after the day in question, shall
be held as a deserter, and punished accordingly."
How many so-called soldiers there are to whom this
order will apply is not known to anybody except,
perhaps, to Mr. Stanton himself. But, judging
from the numbers to be seen everywhere in this
city, there should at least be about as many as
would have filled up the war meeting at Mil-
waukie to its reported numbers had they all been
present.

The Ist of August will doubtless prove to be a
memorable date in the annals of America. From
this day henceforth, until peace shall have been
long restored to this distracted country, gold, silver,
and copper coins are to disappear as currency, and
to become, like medals, jewels, or any other articles
of luxury or personal adornment, commodities of
fluctuating value, to be bought and sold according
to the fashion or the necessities of the market.
The issue of the postage stamps, recommended to the
Government to meet a temporary inconvenience
caused by the hoarding of silver on the part of
ferry comp anies and car proprietors, and to prevent
the issue of " shinplasters" for sums under a dollar,
has been deliberately made by Mr. Chase the basis
for a total revolution of the currency. Before the
war, though gold was seldom seen, it was always
obtainable, and until within a month a man who
exchanged a paper dollar for a cigar, a drink, a
loaf, or a ride in an omnibus could always obtain
silver and copper for the balance. But on and after
this Ist day of August postage stamps, not avail-
able for adhesion to letters, but exchangeable at all
post-offices for thinner and smaller stamps more
saitable for the purpose, are to do duty instead of
dimes. half-dimes, quarter and half dollars. The
stupid metals are placed under interdict, and re-
served for their legitimate purpose of paving the
streets of Utopia! There have been currency doc-
tors and paper-money quacks before now, but the
wildest theorists who believed in the regeneration
of society, and the annihilation of poverty by means
of illimitable issues of inconvertible promises to
pay, never dreamt of two-penny-halfpenny bank
notes! The sublime idea that may have been float-
ing about Chaos for countless ages found at last a
resting-place in the brain of the great financier
Chase—a man untrammelled by the antiquated
notions of the severe experience of an older civilisa-
tion—
" Nature's financial laws lay hid in night ;'

Fate said,' Let Chase appear,' and all was light I"
If England choose to rest her system of finance
upon a golden basis, is America to follow the old
fogey example ? No ; Mr. Chase is in office to in-
augurate a newer system upon a broader founda-
tion ! The £5 note may be suitable for an exclu-
sive society and an ' aristocratic form of govern-
ment, but for a democratic people, every one of
whom is as good as every other—is not the 5 cent
piece the more befitting basis on which to rest an
appropriate currency ? For every bank note in the
pocket of an Englishman, the American shall have
exactly 480 bank notes ; and thus will the old coun-
try be ",whipped" in paper money, as she has been
insowing-machines, Merrimacs, and Monitors, and
Yankee " notions" in general! This seems to be
the argument. The docile public considers it to be
all right ; and the few persons who condescend to
debate the question are so strongly imbued with the
Japanese principles and notions as to make it evi-
dent that the study is new to them. " Our country,"
they :say, " has immense resources. " \%re only

happened in the tural parish of Whitbekine, aar "
this town, and by which two men in the prime of "
i life have suddenly perished. An inquest was held
on the bodies here yesterday, when the witnesses
\
examined deposed to the following state of facts :
The deceased men were navigators,
employed by
E. B. Evans, Esq., of Worcester, in the erection of
a large mansion at Whithnurne. Instead of going
to their work on. Monday last, it appears they had a
drinking bout, and in the afternoon were drinking
at the "Live and Let Live" beer-house, on Brin-
sley-common, near this town. While there, in the
afternoon, the landlady's daughter went out to
the well to get a pail of water, when one of the
men, named Richard Wall, offered to get the
water for her. She consented, and Wall, in let-
ting the bucket down into the well, dropped his
cap, which fell to the bottom of the well. Wall
said he would go down and fetch it. and there-
upon he seized hold of the rope and slid down it to
the bottom. It is supposed that the dense air
below affected him, for he immediately called for
help, on which his companion, Wm. Gibbon, seized
the rope and let himself down into the well to the
assistance of Wall. But no sooner had he got to
the bottom than he too called for help. A third
man offered to descend to their assistance, but the
bystanders prevented him, and when the men were
seen last alive they were both holding by the rope,
when the weight of the two men broke it, and In
a moment they were struggling

obtained, and a ladder and fresh rope could be got,
more than half an hour had elapsed, and the men
when got out were quite dead.
A verdict of " Accidental Death" was returned
in each case.

THE FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT NEAR
RUGBY.

(From the Birmingham Daily Gazette of yesterday.)
As briefly announced in the Daily Gazette of
Thursday, an alarming and fatal railway accident
took place on the Trent Valley line, near the Stret-
ton-under-Foss Railway Station, by which two men
were unfortunately killed. The spot where the acci-
dent took place is about six miles from Rugby, and
within 500 yards of the Stretton Railway Station.
For some days past a number of workmen have been
engaged in the repair of a bridge on the line, which
crosses a wide road leading to the village of Stretton.
The Oxford canal runs by the side of the railway for
some distance, and underneath is a viaduct leading
into the road. The place where the accident took place
is the railway bridge ;which crosses the road. The left
or up-line of rails had been removed for the repairs to
the bridge, owing to there having existed for some
time what is called a "slip" in the embankment.
the sleepers of the up-line over the bridge had also
been removed, and the woodwork and soil got out,
in order to place some fresh girders to the bridge.
The two sides of the bridge were thus left open to
the ground to the distance of some 20 feet. The up-
line being removed it was necessary to work the
traffic over the bridge on the down line from Rugby
to Crew, and this was done by connecting the two
lines on each side of the bridge by means of cross
roads. The rails of the up-line were left up close to
the bridge, to be connected when the necessary re.
pairs have been made. Notice had been given at
the different stations down the line of the fact of
the repairs being in progress, and to prevent acci-
dents a signal which has been -up for some time
owing to the "slip" some 200 yards from the bridge
on the down line towards Crewe, has always stood
at "danger." Near this signal is a point to turn the
train from the up to the down-line. Another signal
of the same description stands at the Stretton sta •
tion, from whence both signals are worked.
Having thus minutely described the locality of
the accident, we proceed to the details by which it
was immediately attended. It appears that on Wed-
nesday evening, about half-past 9 o'clock, the Scot-
tish Preston goods train was proceeding along the
up-line to Rugby, another goods train coming in an
opposite direction along the down-line from Rugby
to Crewe. The signal for the up-line, which could
be seen by the driver of the Preston train for some
500 yards up the line, was at " danger," but by some
fatality (perhaps through his not seeing the signal)
he ran the train, consisting of 51 loaded goods wag-
gons, with engine and break, into the chasm left by
the open bridge. A frightful crash was the conse-
quence. The train, it said, was going at full speed:
It was impossible for the engine-driver' to pull up
in time, and had the pointsman turned the train on
to the down-line, a fearful collision would have taken
place with the other train, and probably many
more lives would have been lost. By the fall of the
train the waggons were heaped upon the engine,
forming a pile some twenty or thirty feet high.
The train presented a complete wreck, the carriages
being thrown down the embankment, and some
seven or eight of them were smashed to atoms, the
contents, consisting of wheat, cheeses, and preserved
meat for the London market, being scattered in
every direction. As soon as possible after the acci-
dent assistance was obtained from Rugby. On its
arrival all that could be seen of the unfortunate
driver and stoker was the hand of one of them pro-
truding tnrough the wreck. A gang of men at
once proceeded to remove the debris, and about 6
o'clock yesterday morning they came to the bodies
of the unfortunate men. They were both found at
their posts at the engine, the driver having one
hand upon the reverser and the other upon the regu-
-1 lator, as if in the act of stopping it. The tender
having been turned over them by the force of the
collision, they were thus crushed between the fire
hole of the engine and the ironwork of the tender.
The bodies, when got out, presented a frightful and
shocking appearance, the head and front of the body
of the driver being completely smashed, and the
features entirely unrecognisable. The stoker was
dreadfully mangled about the body; but his face
was quite untouched. Death must have been instan-
taneous in both cases, the bodies being scalded by
the steam and burnt by the fire from the firehole,
and presenting a most horrible appearance. They
were at once conveyed to the house of Mr. Cocker-
hill, Railway Tavern, near the spot. The driver was
found to be Thomas Pittom, aged 30, residing at
Crewe, and the stoker, Thomas Percival, aged about
20, also residing at Crewe. Both the unfortunate
men are married, Pittom leaving a wife and cue
child, and Percival a wife and two children. The
' line was completely blocked, and yesterday morn-
ing upwards of 50 workmen, under the superinten-
dence of Mr. T. Wheatley, locomotive manager,
Wolverton, were engaged in removing the debris,
the line continuing blocked Until a late hourlast
night, and the traffic being conveyed via Coventry
and Nuneaton.
Yesterday morning the wife of the unfortunate
man Pittom came from Crewe to see the body of her
husband, and her agony
was painful to witness.
The only solution as to the cause of the fatal
occurrence is that the engine-driver, Pittom, owing
to its being a rainy and rather dark night, did not
see the signal,and thinking
on his way. He was a very steady proceeded

be losers to a large amount by the
accident.
Yesterday afternoon, at six o'clock, an inquest
was opened on the bodies, befor Mr. Alfred Carter,
coroner for the northern division of the county of
Warwick, at the Windmill Inn, Stretton. The
Jury proceeded to view the scene of the accident,
and also the bodies, which were identified. The in-
quest was then adjourned until 12 o'clock on Tues-
day the 26th inst. Mr._ Bedford appeared on be-
half of the London and North-Western Railway
Company to
watch the proceedings.

THE FATAL PONDS ON lIAMPS7EAD-
IIEA7LI.

Dr. Lankester, the coroner, held an inquest at the
i
Duke of Hamilton,
New-end, Hampstead, yester-
day, on the body of Wm. Wood,
aged 15, residing
at Harmood -street, Kentish Town. It appeared
from the evidence adduced that on last Tuesday
evening deceased, accompanied by Edward Toughy,
another lad, went to one of the heath ponds to
bathe. They undressed together and went into the
water. Shortly afterwards deceased got out of his
depth, and upon seeing the hapless youth strug-
gling, his companion and another lad made a fruit-
less effort to save him. The pond was dragged by
police-constable 445 S till 12 o'clock the next day,
when the body was recovered.
The police authority in attendance presented a
return showing that there were 11 accidental deaths
and 4 suicides from drowning in these ponds, be-
sides man,' narrow escapes, since 1858, and that the
ponds were too much exposed for the public safety.
The coroner gave his opinion that something
should be done at once to remedy the present dan-
gerously exposed state of the ponds.

LONDON, SATURDAY, AUGUST 16, 1862.

GARIBALDI is still slowly working his way on
towards Messina. Our calculations several days
since, as to the probabilities of his route, are being
to the letter fulfilled. Instead of diverging to one
of the southern ports of Sicily, and thence making
a dash to get suddenly to the mainland, meaning
the peninsula—the General is slowly, but steadily,
advancing through the mountains towards his ori-
ginal destination at the eastern extremity of the
island. Caltanisetta has been passed through.
Thence trending slightly to the north-east, Castro-
giovanni has been reached. And from Castro-
giovanni, the popular hero has advanced to Piazzi,
attended by about a thousand of his volunteers.
The Royal troops being still upon the track of the
Garibaldian force: affecting great eagernessin their
pursuit, but in reality, though for a very different
reason, taking GARIBALDI'S guiding motto, for the
time being, as their own—to wit jestina lento. As
we said from the first, as every one recognised clearly
enough—the Royal army would think twice before
closing in deadly conflict with the recruits marshalled
under the banner of GARIBALDI. While GARI-
BALDI himself finds it advisable in many ways to
lengthen out his proceedings, for a moderate inter-
val at least, so as to gather his forces together more
effectually, so as to get them more within the grasp
of his command as it were, so as to be enabled the
more effectively to hurl them at the right moment
in the most advisable direction, like the pebble from
the pouch, at the head of the Gallic GOLIATH.
Delay at any rate is so far preferable as the guid-
ing principle of the momentary policy of GARI-
BALDI, now in arms with his followers in the in-
terior of Sicily, that precipitate action just now
upon his part could hardly by possibility lead to
anything but some frightful disaster. With delay
it is impossible to say what advantage may not
arise, for him and his, out of the imminence of
the crisis. All the other leaders are in a glaringly
false position! Can any one for an instant venture
to gainsay this ? The EMPEROR is in a false posi
tion ! The POPE is in a false position ! The KING
is in a false position! And so too is RATAZZI—SO
too are the whole of his colleagues in the Italian
Government. The popularity of our hero
altogether surpassing that of any other nota-
bility or notabilities, throughout the whole
of the Italian peninsula, from the shores of the
Adriatic to those of the Mediterranean, from Cape
Spartivento to the range of the Carpathians.
GARIBALDI has himself, of course, blundered, it is
true, for once into a decidedly false position, and
that but just now. But so also, we repeat, have the
others done long and long ago. And while they
are all of them consequently in this respect at least
pretty much upon a par—GARIBALDI, RATTAZZI,
VICTOR EMMANUEL 11., Pius IX., and NAPOLEON
lll.—the popularity of GARIBALDI lies in the hearts
of 25,000,000 Italians ! This alone is an immense
advantage to him. And while this is a fact alto-
gether undeniable—while the love and admiration of
the Italians for GARIBALDI are feelings cherished in
the bosoms alike of the Milanese and of the Neapo-
litans, of the Tuscans and of the Sicilians—GAßl-
ßALDl is there, in the centre, of Sicily among those
thickly-wooded mountain fastnesses at the head of
some 3,000 armed followers. Strong in his geo-
graphical position—strong in the enthusiasm of his
adherents—strong in the popularity of his cause—
but especially strong in his own great name, in
his undoubted honesty, and in his magnificent
disinterestedness. Wild, impracticable, and ex-
travagant his whole enterprise at this moment ap-
pears to be. The odds are seemingly dead against
him. He has been virtually pronounced a Traitor
by his Sovereign. He has been disclaimed by the
Government. He has been again and again con -
demned in the chambers of the Legislature. He
is at this moment being followed by the royal
troops,s word in hand,with the avowed determination
on their part, to put him down, and to put an end
to the movement he has originated. But while this
is so—how many of the Italians are there, how many
are there of those 25,000,000 who are secretly heart
and soul for GARIBALDI ? How many of them wish
him well—even in this new enterprise ? All that is
wanted for the manifestation of this good will is the
discovery of a suitable opportunity. It may come at
any moment. And it is for this reason that Delay
is obviously to the advantage of GARIBALDI.

One of the most marvellous facts in the Ameri-
can war is the transformatian it has wrought in I
the Southern States. At the transformation
from bullies of other countries to courtiers, we
need not, perhaps, wonder so much ; it is the
work of necessity. Till 1860 they were the most
arrogant and insulting of all. They knew that
we detested their slavery, they knew that other
European nations despised them as slaveholders,
they regarded our anti-slave-trade efforts as a
slur upon them, and the Presidents and Cabinets
which they installed in office were the men who
were never weary of bullying England, of toady-
ing to France and Russia, and of extorting every
unrighteous concession from us, under the threat

THE SUN, LONDON,

any mention of the frightful violation of all justice,
human and divine, on which they base their confe-
deration—calling slavery, indeed, divine between
themselves, but saying nothing about it to us—
they appeal to us as a people patriotically defending
their own soil. With four millions of slaves groaning
under the lash, they come across the water pro-
claiming that their battle is for national indepen-
dence and freedom ! Thus have the most outrageous
and violent and swaggering bullies on earth been
converted, so far as European nations are concerned,
into a professedly modest and friendly people.
Such in the South have been the lessons of adver-
sity. We may well doubt, however, whether they
would not soon be forgotten in prosperity ; and the
distich respecting the demeanour of SATAN himself
in sickness be once more verified.

But the other change we have in view is still
more remarkable. The boast, as we thought it, of
JEFFERSON DAVIS has thus been a second time
verified—domestic skill has been so far stimulated
by exclusion from foreign markets that the Confe-
derate States have sufficed for their own wants.
Many luxuries of dress, diet, may be
equipage, we
sure they must dispense with, but they have found
food and clothing sufficient, and homelier living,
and coarse and mended clothing, would naturally
come to be regarded as badges of patriotism. Their
cotton, we are told, they work up into coarse fabrics
for ;the soldiers and for their slaves, too, we may
be sure ; so much so, that a large part of
the supply dreaded by India, at the close of the
war, come when it may, will be found to have
vanished. Breadstuffs and animals for food they
would naturally produce themselves, to the dis-
comfort of the North-Western States, who must
and their markets encumbered with the pork and
wheat which they used to send South. But what
must have surprised all, is their contriving to
almost extemporise the munitions of war. We
confess it has taught us that we need not put our-
selves in any panic about our competency to meet a
foreign war, even if the stores of Woolwich and
Weedon did not almost burst their walls. If the
Secessionists, with their want of mechanical means,
can meet as they do the well-supplied armies of
the North, what could not England do in a few
weeks or months.

True the traitor FLOYD had supplied the South
to the best of his ability ; but it was, for the more
part, with an inferior class of arms. Yet these
people, so wanting in mechanical and manufactur-
ing enterprise, so destitute even of the raw mate-
rial, seem all at once to have found both ma-
terials, ingenuity, and artistic skill. To
read such accounts as Mr. F. L. OLMSTEAD'S, of
of what not only the country but the towns of the
South were, and to find them at a few months' notice
full of resources and enterprise, is one of the most
striking facts we ever met with in the history of a
revolution. Sulphur and saltpetre they get from
somewhere—for powder they make somehow. They
contrive to capture, but certainly also to make new
artillery, and to improve old guns. With hardly a
ship to
.call their own they have performed naval
feats which w ill never be forgotten, and, are to the
great dismay of the Federals, threatening to repeat
them. Under these circumstances all the world has
felt that the Merrimac and the Arkansas were
greater marvels of skill than our Warrior and Black
Prince. The evidence is conclusive, that, up to the
date of the war, the South looked to the North to
manufacture almost every article of domestic or
military use. In a single year, it has become its
own manufacturer !

Illegal, therefore, as were the grounds of their
secession, vile and hideous as a constitution must
be which treats as articles of merchandise, as human
cattle, one-third of the population, it is yet clear
that the inspiration of political independence has
converted a nation of bullies into one which, for the
present at least, behaves with international courtesy,
and a shiftless agricultural population into an ener-
getic manufacturing race. We should not wonder
if the war improves the South as much as it deterio-
rates the North. It may find out the comfort and
pleasure of reasonable international behaviour, and
it will certainly not lose all at once the advantage
of the skill and energy which necessity has taught
its artizans. Nor should we be much surprised if
slavery itself were mitigated in an independent
South, as a result of the war. We may well
believe that slaves must be better treated now
in consequence of it. Cotton growing, and its
culture will not be everything. General agriculture
is a far more intelligent and civilised occupation.
Political exasperation with the Free States will
not react against the negroes. Emulation will com-
pel them to train their slaves to more skilful oc-
cupations ; and it is at least certain that they will
treat their negroes as well as they would be
treated in New York itself.

Ten years after the coup d'etat the Emperor
NAPOLEON 111. has reviewed, for the first time dur-
ing his reign, 30,000 of the National Guard of Paris.
This was on Thursday the 14th. On the following
day, the 15th, NINETY-THREE years had elapsed
since the occurrence of the event which has caused
that date to be celebrated in France, and to be
known throughout the world, as the Fete NAPO-
LEON ! Ninety-three years ago, on that day, was
born the Founder of the NAPOLEON Dynasty. And
yesterday, upon the ninety-third recurrence of that
anniversary, the Third NAPOLEON was far advanced
in the tenth year of his reign—so far advanced in
his reign that he could, upon the eve of the Imperial
Fete, celebrate its approach in the exceptional
manner indicated just now, namely, by review-
ing the National Guard of Paris for the first
time since the coup d'etat of the 2d of Decem-
ber. Reviewing them, as already intimated,
to the number of 30,000 ! The whole of the arme
force who were out in the streets of the Capital,
and in the Champ de Mars on Thursday, the 14th
of August, numbering, altogether, it is calculated—
that is massing together the soldiers of the National
Guard, and of the Imperial Army, infantry, cavalry,
artillery, and engineers—not: far short of 70,000
men ! It is significant of the strength of the im-
perial regime that the incident here particularised
should have taken place, and, beyond all, that it
should have passed off in every way, as it did, so
satisfactory.

It was judiciously arranged beforehand that upon
the Fete Napoleon itself the" difficulty"of the moment
should be evaded ! The EMPEROR giving no formal
reception to the Corps Diplomatique ; and in this
manner avoiding the perilous necessity that might
otherwise have elicited from him an expression of
opinion upon the aspect of affairs among the Euro-
pean Sovereigns.

Whether the Marquis PEPOLI, but just passing
through Paris from Turin, has been the bearer to
NAPOLEON from VICTOR EMMANUEL of any refe-
rence, either direct or in direct, to the newly developed
phase of the Italian Difficulty may of course be
doubted. But the probabilities are that he has—

askance all this while to the possibility of taking
possession some fine day, by a hop, skip, and a
jump, of the Neapolitan throne. All the Pre-
tenders we may be certain are, at this
transition period, on the alert, even MuRAT, even
FRANCIS IL, even the Duke of MODENA, and the
younger Grand-Duke of TUSCANY. And much
likelihood they have, to be sure, of realising their
wishes ! Not the least significant token of the
feebleness of their cause being, that they look, all of
them, less than ever to the Italian People and more
than ever to the French EMPRROR.
If the Italian People—it is remembered by one
and all—have pronounced their opinion in favour of
any one solution of the Italian problem they have
done so in favour of its solution by Unification.
If the French Emperor, on his part, has favoured
any scheme, directed to the same end. more particu-
larly than another, it has certainly not been the
scheme of an Italian kingdom one and indivisible.
It has rather been the exactly opposite scheme of
a nicely balanced Confederation of Italian King-
doms and Principalities. It is the remembrance of
this that enhances the wonder caused throughout
the population of Italy and Sicily by the enigmati-
cal rupture between the Turin Government and
GARIBALDI. It is the recollection of it that turns
every Italian Pretender's eye—not to Italy but—
to the Tuileries. And meanwhile NAPOLEON re-
mains inscrutable and taciturn !

Mr. SCOTT RUSSELL has followed up his pam-
phlet—" Our Fleet of the Future"—by a vigorous
correspondence in a morning contemporary. Mr.
E. J. REID, on the part of the Admiralty and the
Duke of SOMERSET, has volunteered a defence of
the Duke's administration, under which he is carry-
ing out his own theory of iron shipbuilding. The
main charge against the Duke is that, since he has
been in office, he has spent twelve millions of money
and not given us a navy. That we have only two
vessels of high seagoing qualities—and two tubs.
The Warrior and the Black Prince fast and good
ships—the Defence and Resistance bad and slow.
The result is that the twelve millions are spent and
we have no fleet: The result might have been that
for the money spent we could have had a fleet of
twenty Warriors. This seems a melancholy fact
for us poor taxpayers, if fact it be.
How does Mr. REID meet it ? First, he says
we are about to have a fleet of six Warriors—fast
and good ships. Secondly. we are about to have a
fleet of nine vessels—smaller and slow. The fast
and good cannot be completed before 1864 ; the in-
ferior and slow we know not when, possibly by the
same date. As therefore at least two years more
will be required to complete these ships, the Duke
will, then, have spent eight millions more.

Mr. RUSSELL therefore returns to the charge,
and proves that, according to Mr. REID'S state-
ments, the result will be a yet heavier loss than
was at first asserted. The value of the fast and
powerful fleet of six, and of the slow and inferior
fleet of nine, is at the outside three millions each.
The account will therefore stand thus. The duke's
expenditure in the five years to 1864 will be twenty
millions. The two fleets will be worth six millions.
The Income-tax payers (for on them it is that all
superfluous charges fall) will therefore have paid
his Grace FOURTEEN MILLIONS, for which they
will have received nothing at all in the shape of a
more effective fleet.

Such does, after all Mr. REID has said, appear
to be the state of the case, substantially, as left by
Mr. REID'S letter to-day. Such loose statements,
as that the enormity of the charge carries its own
refutation, will not do. It will leave us with only
the six good and nine inferior vessels—it as cer-
tainly might have left us with a fleet of FORTY
WARRIORS. The difference between these two fleets
is the measure of the Admiralty's inefficiency. We
do not mean to attack the duke personally. He and
his board are much like those who have gone be-
fore them. That however is their real delinquency.
They are, thus, at this time, when we are paying
SETENTY MILLIONS sterling, including an enormous
income tax, solely that we may have the de-
fences Lord PALMERSTON demands when we
ask for bread giving us a stone. They are worthy
successors of the Admiralty Boards, which went on
building sailing vessels when the French built
steamers ; paddle box vessels when the French built
screws ; wooden slaughter-houses when the French
were building shot proof iron-sides. It is wonder-
ful we have not become disgusted with defence al-
together, and given up in despair. Happily the
naval instincts of the country are very strong, or
our naval lords before this time, would have sick-
ened us of shipbuilding. We hope Mr. SCOTT
RUSSELL will continue to do the duty of honorary
surveyor or controller of the navy.

At the Gloucester assizes, on Thursday, a man
named John Still, was sentenced to penal servitude for life
for stabbing a policeman in the execution of his duty.
HODGES' FIRE OBSERVATORY AT THE DISTIL-
LERY, LAMBETH.-A short time since the inhabitants of
Lambeth and the surrounding districts presented Mr.
Frederick Hodges, of the distillery, Lambeth, with a very
useful and handsome fire-engine, designed by Signor Cas-
sentini, and built by Merryweather and Sons, of Long-acre,
and which is now an object of great attraction at the Inter-
national Exhibition. Mr. Hodges, in return for this testi-
monial, determined upon presenting something useful in
return. Consequently, he conferred with Mr. C. B. King,
engineer of the distillery, and it was finally agreed to have
erected at Mr. Hodges' expense a fire observatory, frcm
the top of which the locality of a fire could be at once seen,
and thus enable the engines to reach the scene of conflag-
ration much sooner than before. Mr. C. B. King, having
drawn out the design of the observatory, it was entrusted
to Messrs. Lewis and Stockwell, of the Barking-road, to
make. It is constructed in lengths of 48ft. each to a height
of 130 ft., and at the top is a balcony, which is capable of
holding six persons, from which observations of fires in any
part of London, or even miles distant, -tan be made. It
will no doubt be of the greatest utility, and avoid much
needless loss of time in ascertaining the locality of a dis-
tant fire.

DREP SEA FISHING.—Mr. Dempster, who, as
the Editor of the Northern Ensign says, " continues
affected by the deep-sea fishing-phobia," has just written
to us a long letter on that subject, in which he says :
" The way the fisheries are conducted and carried on in
this country by small open boats is discreditable to our
fame as a great maritime nation. Two-thirds of the whole
of the fishermen belonging to Great Britain are supplied
with nothing else but open yawls and cobles to pursue
their calling, The results of such fisheries are, most of the
fish caught inshore by these insecure and unseaworthy bad
weather boats, are fish either full of spawn, fish that have
just spawned, or young fish fry that are immature, green,
and tasteless." Mr. Dempster continues to urge that all
fishermen ought to be supplied with strong built decked
welled vessels for deep-sea fishing, and capture fish during
their filling time, as it is only then when fish are in their
prime state and firm condition. Mr. Dempster argues as
the cause for the backward state of our fisheries " the
absence of u wholesale fish market everywhere else but
at London, coupled with the fishermen's females acting as
retail dealers; duties there is no necessity for them to per-
form, and which lesens the ambition of their men to rise
in the scale of society." Mr. Dempster says :—" To urge
fisheries and fish-market reform from Whitby, in York-
shire, to John o' Groats, in the north of Scotland, where
there are no ether description of fishing vessels but open
boats and cobles, is about as patriotic a work as any man can
be employed on," and, taking the worst case he has found
along the coast, for example, he says :—" So fallen and de-
, generate has many fishermen in the North become, parti-
cularly at Aberdeen, they have seldom as much money as
purchase a new boat." To reform the fisheries, Mr.Demp-
ster urges " A general: wholesale, fish-marketing sys-
tem throughout the country by licensed salesmen," and the
formation of companies tb supply the fishermen with decked
welled vessels instead of open boats.
AN ODD COINCIDENCE.—At the Sheriff's dinner
at Carlisle, the other day, Mr. Hassell gave " The Mem'
tiers for West Cumberland," concluding his eulogistic re-
marks by
stating the singular coincidence that the ladies of
both had, on the same day, brought them an increase to
their families. (Laughter.) Captain Lowther returned
thanks. As to the family increase alluded to, it had core
to Mr. Wyndham and himself not only on the same day,
but he believed its the Rune hoar, (Laughter.)

At Newmarket two Confederate brigades were
met, and the Federals retired.

The Federals are camped at Malvern Hill ; but
it is reported that a large force of Confederates is

ADMIRAL BOWLES AND THE
ADMIRALTY.

ADMIRAL BOWLES has printed as a pamphlet, of
102 pages (Ridgway), the evidence which he gave
last year before the Select Committee on the Board
of Admiralty. Many who do not care to purchase
an entire Blue-book, will like to see the opinions
on the subject of one who speaks both from official
and naval experience, when they may be had for a
shilling. He has appended to the pamphlet his
Bill of 1854 for a Naval Militia; two other docu-
ments are included—one, a letter of the gallant
Admiral's to his First Lord, Lord Haddington, in
September, 1844, at the time he was in office, on
the defenceless state at that time of the country ;
the other, included, indeed, in the letter, a remark-
able extract from a French paper, "Le Censeur,"
of the 6th of January, 1842, showing how a French
Admiral in the Levant squadron had deliberately
proposed to destroy the English squadron by taking
it at a disadvantage, and complete the work by
landing 30,000 men on the coast of Ireland. The
letter was written after the alarm of war created
by the Prichard affair at Tahiti, in which the French
clergy used the politicians and the politicians the
clergy, to force, between them, Popery on the con-
verts of Protestant missionaries, and a French Pro-
tectorate on a helpless, but perfectly independent
Princess, who had not given to France the shade of
the shadow of provocation. The Admiral's principal
objects were to impress on the Committee the im-
portance of an independent, or at least highly-
placed authority, the most important part of whose
functions should be to keep the Admiralty awake
to the actual condition of the fleet. The Controller
of the Navy should for this purpose, he thinks,
have large powers, and a seat at the Board. He is
also, of course, a strenuous advocate of a Naval
Militia, even to the extent of a compulsory ballot.
Nor will he admit that our present Naval Volun-
teers and Reserve are all that is needed for an
emergency.

THE MET.ROPOLITAN BOARD OF WORKS.

The usual meeting of the board was held yester-
day ; Mr. John Thwaites presided for the first time
since his recent illness. Mr. Francis Healey took
his seat as one of the representatives of the parish
of St. Pancras, in the place of Mr. Robert Eckett,
deceased. A report was brought up from the Main
Drainage Committee, stating that Messrs. Peto and
Betts have withdrawn their tender for the construc-
tion of the Bermondsey branch of the Southern Low
Level Sewer, and recommending that the tender of
Messrs. John Aird and Son for the execution of
the said works, for the sum of £107,000 be accepted,
subject to the usual inquiries as to the responsibi-
lity of their sureties being satisfactory. The reso-
lution adopting the recommendation of the com-
mittee was, after some discussion, carried on a
division. Mr. Newton moved, " That it be referred
to the solicitor to report as to what means can be
adopted to bind the persons whose tender may have
been accepted by the board, either by altering the
form of advertisement or requiring parties to sign
an agreement When
any order shall be made ac•
cepting a tender, or what course Gan be best
adopted to prevent parties from withdrawing
after the acceptance of a tender; and that
the solicitor have the assistance of counsel in
drawing such instrument as may be found neces-
sary." Mr. Wilkinson
i seconded the motion, and
strongly condemned the coarse taken by Messrs.
Peto and Bette, which had thrown additional cost
of £lO,OOO upon the board for the execution of
works for which they had accepted the contract.
After a short :discussion, the motion was put and
agreed to. The routine business was disposed
of, and the board adjourned until the 26th of Sep-
tember.

NEW ZEALAND.

OUTBREAK OF THE NATIVES.

Wt (Melbourne Argus) have been without so fre-
quent intercourse with New Zealand this, as for
some months previously. This is principally owing
to a decline in operations at the Otago goldfields,
and to some interruption in the steam postal ar-
rangements. What little news we have, however,
is important. Last month his Excellency Sir
George Grey .left Auckland for Wellington and
Nelson, and was to have visited Otago before his
return to the seat of Government. Whilst absent
a long-standing feud between certain tribes in the
north broke out into open hostilities, of which the
following is the best summarised account that has
reached us :

" The scene of confict is Waitomotomo, within
18 miles of Wangarie, in the Auckland district.
" The chief Matiu having set up a claim of
ownership to certain lands in Tirarau's block, in
1856, a dispute arose between them, which has con-
tinued up to the present time, but did not assume
any very serious aspect until somewhere about the
Ist of May, when Matiu went down on the land for
the purpose of surveying it_ He at once commenced
to build a pah on the block. Tirarau, on being in-
formed of this proceeding, went up to the block
and took up a position in front of Matiu's encamp-
ment. They continued fronting each other for some
time, while endeavours were being made by the re-
sident magistrate, Mr. Aubery Manihere, the native
assessor, and the missionaries, to induce them to re-
tire to their respective settlements, and leave the
final arrangement to the Government. This pro-
posal was acceded to by Tirarau and his party,
but peremptorily refused by the other party ;
and what made the matter worse was that Arama
Kreke, one of the newly appointed native assessors,
joined Matiu, and who, on being asked why he, a
paid magistrate of the Queen, embroiled himself in
this quarrel, replied, ' I don't come exactly to fight
about the land ; I come to fight about old quarrels.'
He is an earnest advocate of the war. From the
remarks of Matiu and party it was seen that a
pacific solution could not be come to, and a line was
drawn between the two encampments, it being
arranged that neither party should cross it except
as a declaration of war.

" On Friday, 16th May, some natives of Matiu's
party crossed the line, were seen, and immediately
fired on by Tirarau's people. This commenced the
actual hostilities, and a battle ensued, in which five
men were killed and a number wounded of Matiu's
people, and three of Tirarau's were wounded. Since
then, up to the 23d, there has been no actual fight-
ing, but the natives are posted fronting each other,
ready at a moment's notice to renew the conflict,
and watching each other with the utmost vigilance.
At present the parties are pretty equally balanced.
Tirarau has 200 men in his pahs, and Matiu had
180, but was receiving reinforcements. A number
of the Hokianga and Bay natives have gone to the
Kaipara battle-field and taken sides, and larger
reinforcements are expected. Before taking up his
position Matiu went to the settlement of He miora,
and took away his entire property of horses, pigs,
cattle, and household effects. Hamiora was a man
noted as being an ally of Kawitti in Heke's war.
On hearing of this robbery he at once started to
Tiraru's pah, and on his arrival there took to his
bed and died, as the natives say, ' through grief of
the outrage.' This has greatly incensed Tirarau's
people and others.
" On the 23d Matiu, with from 200 to 300 men,
started by a circuitous route to take up a position
on the hill Pukiatua ; and Tirarau, with from 170
to 200 men, went to intereept him, seeing he must
cross the line of the Wairua. A fight was expected
to come off that day, but we learn that, owing to
the illness of Tirarau, the battle was postponed.
"Parties of armed men have been going through
the British settlement of Wangarci to join Tiraran.
On the 22d May a party of natives, on their way
to join Tirarau, took two casks of power with them.
" The most serious part of this very unpleasant
business is to come. If the pretensions of Matiu
be good, then all the land sold by Tirarau to the
Government, and now in the hands of the resi-
dent settlers, has been illegally disposed of, and
with the improvements must be paid for over
again ; but at the time of sale no pretence to
ownership was made by Matiu or any of his people.
Sir George Grey has since written to these
parties, and was expected back in Auckland, but
the dispute had not been settled at our latest
dates thence, although it had not assumed any
aggravated features. Sir George retains his
popularity with the peace party, but the war party
still look on his policy with suspicion. Tiraraa
is a great friend of the British, and although this
outbreak is to be deplored, it does not seem
likely that our forces will thereby be drawn into
further hostilities with the natives.
The natives refuse to sell the land to the British
in the neigbourhood of Coromandel, where new gold
fields are said to have been discovered in the pro-
vince of Auckland, and the search for gold in that
district is consequenty limited. It was at no time,
however, a very promising gold-field. No other
news of importance from Auckland.
FURTHER AND LATER NEWS.

We received our Auckland files last evening to
the 7th inst., and our Otago files to the 18th inst.,
but they do not materially alter what is given above,
or add much to it.
Sir George Grey has returned to Auckland, and
there seems a fair prospect of the outbreak with the
natives, referred to above, being amicably adjusted.
The Sydney papers speak of a renewal of hostilities,
but there seems to be some confusion of dates, this
renewal being said to have occurred on the 29th of
May, of which the New Zealander makes no men-
tion in its summary of June 7. There is a revival
of the talk about the success of the Coromandel
gold-fields, but we see nothing in the papers on the
subject worth extracting. The Maoris had held
their first ranunga, or parliament, as the New Zea-
lander ostentatiously calls it, and it is spoken of as
likely to be of use.
