THE SUM LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING"-, -OCIIOI3ER, 7, 1862.

HER MAJESTY'S I/ ISIT TO GERMANY.—Hex
Majesty the Queen arrived at Coburg on Friday, at six
o'clock in the afternoon, from Rheinhardtsbrunn.
THE ARCHBISHOP OF YORK.—The important
office of Primate of England, which is about to become
vacant by the translation of the Most Rev. Dr. C. T.
Longley to the Primacy of all England, was a few days
since offered by Lord Palmerston, on the part of the Crown,
to the Lord Bishop of London. In consequence of the
manner in which the Bishop of London's energies have
been overtaxed since he was raised to the episcopate in 1856,
and the effect which his great exertions in his diocese have
have had upon his general health, it was thought that his
lordship would avail himself of the opportunity thus offered
to him of succeeding to a quieter sphere of labour, but his
lord ship has, after mature consideration, declined the honour
which the Prime Minister proposed to confer upon him, and
wtll continue to discharge the heavy and responsible duties
of the metropolitan diocese.

FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE RIVER.—About four
o'clock yesterday afternoon a young man named Peter Moss,
a compositor, with another young man, were sailing on the
river in a skiff, with the main and fore sail set. When off
Deptfcrd a squall capsized the boat, in consequence of the
main sheet having been made fast, and the boat being with-
out ballast. Moss sank, and was not seen again. The body
was not found. The other young man was rescued.
METROPOLITAN FREE HOSPITAL, DEVONSHIRE-
SQUARE, CITY.—The aggregate number of patients admitted
during the week ending Oct. 4 was—medical, 1,406; surgi-
cal, 648—total, 2,064; of which 743 were now cases.
A new system of laying the dust without water-
ing the carriage-way, has been for some time in operation
in the Avenue des Champs Elysees, It consists of sprink-
ling the road with chloride of calcium, which, being re-
markable for its power of absorbing moisture, soon becomes
damp, and thereby prevents any dust from rising even in
the hottest day. Should it be found to answer, it will be
more generally introduced, and thus in a great measure do
away with the watering-carts, the use of which is not un-
frequently attended with inconvenience.
The indemnity claimed from the Chinese on be-
half of Mr. Bowlby, the correspondent of the limes, who
was murdered during the China war, has been received,
and paid over to his widow. In addition to this a hand-
some sum has, we understand, been given by the proprie-
tors of the journal in whose service he came to so un-
timely and cruel an end.
THE RIOT IN HYDE-PARK.—Yesterday several
additional casualties to those mentioned in the newspapers
came to light, and reports were very generally current
through the West- end that a private in the Grenadier
Guards had died in the night from injuries which he sus
tained in the disgraceful fray in Hyde-park. The result,
however, of inquiries made by the reporter at the hospital
of the Grenadier Guards, Rochester-row, Westminster, last
evening, shows that during the fray a private in the Grena-
dier picket, ordered into the park for the purpose of march-
ing off the men belonging to that regiment, had been con-
veyed in a cab to the hospital in a seriously injured condi-
tion from a heavy blow on the skull, apparently from a
bludgeon, and where he now remains under medical treat-
ment, but not considered to be in danger. Another private
was admitted shortly afterwards with an extensively con-
tused wound on the cheek-bone. He was not of the picket
but in the park on his own responsibility, and as he also is
considered to be out of danger there appears to be no truth
in the rumour that life has been sacrificed. It is to be re-
gretted, nevertheless, that two Irishmen, named respec-
tively Samuel Thorne and Timothy Murphy, both of Gray's-
buildings, Manchester-square, lie at St. George's Hospital
badly stabbed by sharp instruments, the first-named (who
was brought to the hospital yesterday morning early) in
the hip, and the other in both thighs. It is also stated on
good authority that a Mr. Gibson, of Highbury, was
roughly handled by the Irish and badly cut with a knife in
the face as he was peaceably passing along the park in the
height of the melee, and had to be removed to his home in
a cab.

Advices from Athens state that nearly two
hundred soldiers who deserted on the reduction of Nauplia
and took refuge in Italy have been pardoned and authorised
to return to their country. The decree for this act of par-
don was issued on the occasion of the anniversary of the
attempt on the life of the Queen by Dosios, from which her
Majesty so providentially escaped. Koronaios and Boul
garis, the leaders of the insurrection, alone are excluded
from the effects of the Royal clemency.
The Austrian Ministry has instructed all the
provincial governors to obtain accurate information as to
the probabilities of operatives emrloyed in the cotton manu-
facture being thrown out of work in the coming winter,
and to take measures for their relief if necessary.
The commercial advices from New York show
a strong impression among the leading merchants that a
period of political anarchy is at hand, and that the termi-
nation of the war will ultimately take place from a crisis of
confusion in the Northern States. One observer remarks,
with reference to the effect produced by the emancipation
decree, that if there should be no European intervention it
is highly probable a revolutionary struggle will soon be

witnessed both in the North and West. The next appre-
hensions of Federal disaster were centred on the expected
fall of Louisville, and it was assumed that if that event
should take place the Legislature of Kentucky will meet
forthwith and vote their State out of the Union—an ex-
ample likely to be followed by Tennessee and Missouri.
Still it is said there is a large party among the Abolitionists
who firmly believe, not only in the speedy subjuga-
tion of the South, but also in the ability of the country " to
take vengeance on England immediately afterwards," the
latter being an idea in which they find warm sympathisers
among other classes who agree with them in nothing else.
In fact, it. is said that among these persons the animosity
to the South is a secondary feeling compared with that en-
tertained towards England. Business of all kinds was in a
state of complete uncertainty, and the fluctuations in the
stock-market are violent in proportion to the alterations in
the rate of exchange, since, as the quotations are in the
paper currency, in proportion as the flood increases the
prices of securities must rise. Wheat continues to be
shipped on a large scale, the total consignments of the week
having been about 120,000 quarters. One consequence of
the increasing symptoms of political distrust is that some
of the most wealthy families are taking their departure for
Europe.
The tenants of the Castletown Estate, in the

county Limerick, have sent an address to Colonel Hare, in
which they indignantly deny that his late murdered agent
was harsh or unfeeling. He was, on the contrary, as kind
and considerate as he could be consistently with his duty.
They have every reason to deplore his loss, and to feel
most grateful to their landlord. The Cork Reporter men-
tions a circumstance connected with this case which has
not been made public :—:k son of Hayes had been tried for
the murder of a tenant named Quinlan, and was acquitted
on account of some flaw in the case, though evidence left
little room for doubt. When he got out of gaol Mr. Brad-

dell required the father, Michael
Hayes, to send him to
America, on pain of eviction, which he readily promised,
Mr, Braddell insisted that it should be done, It was not
done, and proceedings were taken to eject the elder Hayes
from his holding, and were pending when the murder was
committed,

Berlin letters confirm the intelligence that the
Prince Royal of Prussia and the Princess Victoria will not
return to the Prussian capital, but, on leaving Coburg, will
make a long tour in Switzerland and Italy. Owing to the
political circumstances in which Prussia has been placed
during the conflict between the Crown and the Second
Chamber, this sudden departure excited surprise at Berlin.

It is said that the Emperor Napoleon has jast
purchased Malmaison, the residence of the Empress Jose-
phine after her divorce, from Queen Christina. He already
possesses considerable estates in the environs, La Jonchere,
Saint-Cucuta, and the greater put of the woods of Mal-

maison.

The advices from Vienna describe considerable
monetary pressure, accompanied by many 'allures of manu-
facturing firms, among whom are Messrs. Schacherl
Brothers, F. Lowy, M. Simon, and Day. Epstein (widow),
all of Vienna, and AI. Thoma, at Ofen, the latter with
liabilities for £20,000. At Pesth likewise there had been
similar disasters, including M. Bohm, M. Konya, and M.
Ebel, with liabilities for £17,500. Under these circum-
stances the Bank will not discount freely, and parties in
want of money are obliged to sell foreign bills—a circum-
stance which accounts for the fall in the foreign exchanges,
and the corresponding increase of value of the Vienna
currency,
