TEETH.-By MR. ESKELL'S INVENTION
(Royal Seal granted 17th July, 1860), Sets or partial
Sets of Teeth, exquisitely enamelled to nature, are made and
fitted in a few hours by means of his patented soft elastic and
imperishable base of the colour of the gum, to which it ad-
heres with wonderful tenacity, dispensing with springs or
unsightly fastenings, and defying detection by the closest
observer. The peculiar attribute of Mr. Eskell's invention
is, the readiness with which these teeth can be re-adapted to
any change of the mouth (even by the wearer); and as they
act independently of all disturbing causes which affect teeth
of ordinary construction, they are guaranteed to last a life
time, as well as for mastication and articulation. Mr.

vrero measures
taken to rescue the men known to be down. This
was successfully performed, and all but five unfortunate
wen were brought up in safety and uninjured. These
were sadly burnt, but no fatal result has yet ensued. This
explosion disproves the theory broached some time ago,
that when the temperature above was low, the air still, and
the weather " muggy," there was a corresponding lowness
of the temperature below, and greater fear of explosion.
Monday was a cold winter's day here, and the temperature
high. The ventilation beneath, in the pits, being artificial,
and the currents maintained by artificial agencies, it fol-
lows that the condition of the weather above has little or
no influence on the air below, and that the cause of explo-
sion must be sought for elsewhere.—Leeds Mercury.
NEAT.—A clergyman being much pressed by a
lady of his acquaintance to preach a sermon the first Sun-
day after her marriage, complied, and chose the following
passage in the Psalms as his text----" And there shall be
abundance of peace—while the moon endureth."
It appears that the accumulation of convicts at
Toulon is so great that a difficulty is experienced in finding
a sufficient number of keepers to watch over them, the pay
given to these men not being sufficient to tempt applicants
for an unpleasant kind of ekupl9yraent.

THE 110 N. A. T. GALT AT THE MAN-
CHESTER CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.

MANCHESTER, THURSDAY.

A special meeting of the Manchester Chamber of Com-
merce was held this day, for the purpose of hearing the
lion. Mr. Galt, the late Finance Minister of Canada, upon
the trade and resources of Canada as affected by the present
tariff.
The Maydi occupied the chat.

Mr. GALT, who was most cordially received, entered into
an elaborate explanation of his late fiscal policy, and showed
1 that the duties fixed by the Legislature of Canada had been
imposed not for the purposes of protection, but for the sake
of obtaining a revenue, which was applied to the promotion
of public works, with the view to the opening up and deve-
lopment of the country, and in the payment of interest on
the debts of the province incurred by the construction of
these works. The late Ministry was, however, endeavour-
ing to reduce the tariff when they resigned owing to their
defeat on the Militia Bill—a step which had given rise to the
greatest misapprehension on the part of England as touch-
ing Canada's loyalty. The cost of Canada to England was
very small, and the experiment of self-government should
be allowed to work out its legitimate results. Then if a sepa
ration were desired by either the mother country or by her
colonies, or both, such separation might be effected with
mutual goodwill.

Mr. Gait's speech made a great impression upon the
Chamber, owing to its earnest eloquence.
Mr. ASHWORTH and Mr. MASON complained of Canada
maintaining high duties upon British manufactured goods,
and said that if this policy were maintained it would be bet-
ter that there should be a separation between England and
her British North American possessions.
Mr. FERGUSSON observed that Messrs. Ashworth and
Mason spoke only their own sentiments, and not the
opinion of the Chamber.
Mr. Ross complained of the high duties levied by Canada
on British manufactured articles, but said that Manchester
did not complain of that so much as of the fact that whilst
this high tariff was maintained on the other aide against
England, the mother country allowed the Canadians to
send in their corn, &c., free.
Mr. GALT replied, and the proceedings, which lasted up-
wards of two hours, terminated with the usual compliment
to the Chairman.

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 21st contain accounts
of the proceedings of the Royal family at Seville.
On the previous day a grind reception took place
at the Royal Palace, and in the afternoon their
Majesties were present at a bull fight, in the even-
ing driving through the city, Which was brilliantly
illuminated. The English Ambassador, Sir John
Crampton, who had been staying at Granja, has
returned to Madrid. He was expected to leave in
the evening to join the Royal family at Seville.

7HE SUSPEC7ED MURDER IN 711 E CITY.

Samuel Gardener and Elizabeth Humbler were placed:al
the bar before the Lord Mayor, at the Mansion-house, yes•
terday, on suspicion of having murdered Elizabeth Gar.
diner, by cutting her throat, in his house, No. 1, Nor.
thumberland-alley, Fenchurch-street, on the 15th inst.

Both prisoners appeared to treat the charge with the
greatest indifference.
The first witness examined was Mary Spencer, who said
that on the morning of the 15th the prisoner Gardener
came to her at her lodgings in Back Northumberland-
alley, and told her to come to his house. She did so, and
there she saw the body of the deceased lying en the floor
with a gap in the throat. The female prisoner was crying
and saying what a shocking thing it was, and what a
wicked man Gardener must be to accuse her of having
done it. She, by Gardener's direction, went for the police.
Witness said some time ago she knew that Gardener and
his wife quarrelled in consequence of his familiarities with
Humbler.

Mr. Cowley, surgeon, described the injuries, and said he
was decidedly of opinion that the wound the deceased
woman had on the throat could not have been inflicted by
her own hand.

The Lord Mayor—What sort of an instrument would
have inflicted the wound ?

Witness—The knife that has been shown to me. [The
weapon was here produced. It was a small white-handled
carving-knife, and exceedingly sharp towards the point.]
The Lord Mayor (to the prisoner Gardiner)—Do you
wish to ask the witness any questions?
Gardiner—No, nothing.

Hobbs, the City police-sergeant, said—The knife pro-
duced was handed to him when ho entered the room. Dr.
Sequeira said the prisoner Gardiner had just taken it from
the deceased's right hand. The female prisoner said, " You
wretch, you are the cause of this." Gardiner said, "What ?
You have done this." Humbler clasped her hands,
and exclaimed, " Oh, my God l" The male prisoner
said he suspected her because he had had intercourse with
her, and she was aware that through a dispute she had to
leave the service of Mrs. Gardiner. Both persona were
given into custody after the inquest was adjourned yester-
day. On the road to the station Gardiner said two or three
times, " I am glad I have been given into custody. I hope
now something will come out."
Both prisoners were remanded.

BOURSE, Sept. 25.—The documents published by the Monzteur have been the subject of general con

MEXICO.

The New York journals publish news from Vera
Cruz to the Ist of Sept., stating that a rupture
had occurred in the Juarez cabinet. Senor
Doblado had resigned, and had been replaced by
Senor Juan de la Fuente. San Blas and Man-
zanilla had declared in favour of foreign inter-
vention.

The Foreign Ministers had protested against
the abusive pamphlets issued at Mexico.
Spanish circulars were being distributed among
the people urging them to remember their Spanish
descent, to establish a monarchy, and call the
Duchess of Montpensier to the throne.

MARK LANE.

Very little English wheat was received fresh up to this
morning's market. Good and fine samples moved off
slowly, at Monday's decline in the quotations, otherwise,
the trade waa dull, and prices had a downward tendency.
The show of samples of foreign wheat was large, and the
demand for all descriptions ruled inactive, at barely late
rates.

Floating cargoes of grain were in slow request, on former
terms.

Good and fine malting barley was firm in price ; but in
other kinds, sales progressed slowly, at barely previous
rates.

Malt changed hands slowly, but at full prices for good
and fine parcels.

Oats were in limited supply, and steady request, at ex.
treme rates.

The show of beans and peas was small, and the trade for
!hem ruled firm, at full currencies. _ _ _

The flour trade was decidedly inactive. Good and fins
parcels, however, both English and foreign, fairly supported
previous rates.

A IIIREATENING LETTER.

We lately noticed the performances of an orato-
rical boiler-maker, who, with much more zeal than
sense, employs his Sundays in violently denouncing
the Pope to a motley audience who crowd about
him at the place where he has pitched his stand on
the Green. We have not heard that the extrava-
gant tirades of this misguided and headstrong
zealot have been productive of any effect in the
way of either silencing or convincing those to
i
whom he is opposed, but they haN e succeeded in n-
-flaming the angry passions of gainsayers. It has
already been reported that they had gone so far
towards provoking a breach of the peace as to call
for the intervention of the authorities. We now
learn that, as if dissatisfied with the slackness of
the powers that be, measures have been taken by
private persons to scare the poor man into quiet-
ness. A threatening notice' has been sent him,
drawn up after the approved nicidel of those san-
guinary missives by which an obnoxious landlord
in Tipperary is apt to be surprised upon occasion.
The following is a literal copy of this atrocious
production :

" Glasgow, Sept. 21, 1862.
" William tomson—Sur i hereby inform you that if you
do not stop praching aginst our Holy Church that you will
be stabed to deth some night soone for 12 of us have drawen
cuts and sore to kill you and i drow the short cut and must
kill you or be kilt myself now you must hold ytiur bad tutu.
or it will be done-so help nie God-and our holy virgt4 ramp
a bad man wurs than gait or 111‘coll and as bad a man as
henry the 8 or bloody queen bess your the greatest liar in
Glasgow, and that is a bigg word, for you never tell the
truth, your a thiff for you stoll the dead mans watch your
a hipocrate for you have no religion Your a heretick to and
will go to hell soon. Now i dont want to kill if you will
hold your bad tung so if you want to live and be a father to
your childer you will prech no more on Sundays but stay
at home and mind your boiler making if not i will stab you
so help me Christ and our holy religion—Your enemy
D 0 This epistle, which came through the Post
Office, is written in a schoolboyish but obviously not a
feigned hand, and is garnished at the bottom with a brace
of illustrations--the one a drawn knife, marked cold steel;
the other a coffin, with a skull and cross bones, and the in-
scription " William tomson, died 1862." Of course, it naay
be a wicked hoax ; but it looks " awfully real." —North.

THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.
PLYMOUTH, SEPT. 26.
The Union Company's steamer Dane, with the
Cape mail, arrived here this morning. She left
Table Bay on the 21st, St. Helena on the 29th ult.,
and Ascension on the 2d inst.
She brings 53 passengers.
The Cape Parliament was prorogued on the 9th
ult.

A motion for the complete separation of the two
provinces had been rejected.
The real grievances of the eastern colonists were
being remedied. Parliament and Government were
concurring in vigorous exertions for that purpose.
The principal department complained of, " the
Roads and Bridges," had been called to account
by the Assembly, and taken in hand by the Go-
vernor himself.

A bill had been passed for the construction of a
railway from Port Elizabeth to Graham's Town, the

per cent. on £750,000.

MO.BEY MARKET.

CITY NE W S—YESTERD AY.
About £25,000 was taken from the Bank to-day
?or transmission to Portugal.
The Bombay mail steamer Mooltan. sailing on the
27th inst., will take out specie to the amount of
£206,615, of which £2,665 in gold is for Alexandria,
and the remainder, £30,100 in gold and £173,850
In silver, for Bombay.
Business has been almost totally suspended to-
day in all the markets where quotations are liable
to be affected by the events of the American war,
and it would have been extremely difficult to effect
sales, owing to the conjectures excited by the non-
arrival of the expected telegrams from either of the
three steamers now due.
The extent to which the overtrading on the part
of the cotton manufacturers was carried previously
to the American war may be illustrated by the fact
that, according to the latest advices, the stocks of
piece goods at Calcutta and Bomb ,y were fully
equal to a year's consumption, even under ordinary
circumstances. From the economy induced by the
present high prices, the supply will, of course, prove
adequate for a much longer period. It also appears
that such shipments of goods as are now in progress
to Calcutta are upon terms 20 per cent. above the
last quotations from that port.
The Continental money-markets show little varia-
tion. At Paris, Amsterdam, and Brussels the rate
is 3 per cent., at Frankfort it is 2 per cent., and at
Ramberg, 31.
The St. Petersburgh advices show that the recent
rise here in flax and hemp has stimulated the Rus-
sians to ask extravagant prices. Business in the
Interior of Russia is better than was anticipated,
and the sales at the fair have, on the whole, been
satisfactory.
The Colonial-office have intimated, in reply to
representations with regard to the unprotected con-
dition of the island of Labuan from piratical attacks,
that instructions will be forthwith sent to the
Admiral on the China station to despatch as early
as may be practicable to the coast of Borneo some
suitable vessel for the suppression of piracy in the
Eastern Archipelago,
The Bank of British Columbia have commenced
briaihoes% the Lords Commissioners of her Majesty's
Treasury having given the requisite certificate.
Owing to the favourable character of the report
Just issued, the shares of the Commercial Union As-
surance Company were inquired for to-day.
After business hours the arrival of a private te-
legram with news by the City of New York, from
Cape Race on the 16th, occasioned great excite-
tient. The information received is to the effect that
111‘Clellan had completely defeated the Confederates.
The quotations of American secxrities were given
2 or 3 per cent. higher from New York, and ex-
change on London had receded to 129.

A very large number of white mulberry trees
have come to perfection in Tasmania, and the silk pro-
duced there has been pronounced equal to the finest grown
in Italy. Silk is likely to be a valuable staple production
of Tasmania.

The obstinacy of the King, and the selfish
promptings of his private advisers, ministers with-
out the name, will shear the Prussian Crown of
many privileges and powers which the people
would be content enough to leave it. What they
ask now is little enough, and its frank concession
would win the Sovereign to ther cordial loyalty. A
few months of Count Von Bismark-Sohonhausen's
rule and their demands will be greater, whilst the
concessions which will then be inevitable will be
coldly received.—Morning Post.

MUNIFICENCE OF T. J. AGAR ROBARTES, ESQ
M.P.—This benevolent gentleman has intimated his inten-
tim to contribute £l5O towards the establishment of a life-
boat in connection with the National Lifeboat Institution at
Port Leven, near the Land's End. Mr. Robartes had pre-
viously, in conjunction with the late llonble. Mrs. Agar,
pru,ented £260 through that society towards the cost of the
Lizard lifeboat station. He had also liberally contributed
towards the expense of the lifeboat stations at Fowey, Pen-
zance, New Quay, and St. Ives, on the Cornish coast. It is
earnestly hoped that the Duchy of Cornwall and the influ-
ential residents of that county will assist the institution in
keeping up on the Cornish coast its numerous lifeboat esta-
blishments in a state of efficiency.

FT.OODS IN YORKSBIRE.—Since Sunday an =-
menu) quantity of rain has fallen in South Yorkshire, and
so rapid has been the rise of the waters of the Don that
that river in many places overflowed its banks. Yesterday
an immense tract of country around Doncaster was under
water, and it is feared before the fresh can be passed
dtm-n a part of Doncaster known as Marsh-gate will be
inundated. Bctween Sandal!, Burathy, Dun, and Stain •
forth, on the South Yorkshire Railway, the flood waters
have passed their naturA boundary and flowed with re-
markable rapidity upon the cultivated lands, principally on
the western side. Great damage has already been occasioned.
The Union confesses to being "bowed down with
shame and humiliation at the perusal of the account of the
soiree at Sir Culling Eardley's, wherein we had the spectacle
of the Bishop of LOndon fraternising with heretics and
schismatics of all denominations." The Union adds :
it It is the first time, we believe, since the reformation
that such a scene has been presented to the eyes of English
churchmen, and we earnestly trust that it is the last."
