A PRINCELY FIRE-EATER.—The following appears
in an evening contemporary :—" General Fleischman, in
explaining certain passages in his late work which had been
called in question in a threatening letter from Prince Pierre
Napoleon, added that though he could have meant no of-
fence, as he was ignorant of the Prince's existence, yet, as
the latter was so anxious fir a duel, he ' notwithstanding his
alvauced age' would not disappoint him. The Prince replied
in an epistle,
for which heis obtaining the utmost publicity, to
this effect :—`
Your letter tends to rectify certain, passages of
the memoirs of which your acianced age did not prevent
you from becoming the responsible editor. I was not aware
Of that age when I wrote to you. At Levy's, your pub-
lisher's, I am informed that you are a general of the Wur-
temberg army, in active service, and aide-de-camp to the
King cf Wurtemberg. However that may be, you are
ready, you say, to give me satisfaction. I adhere, then, to
my first letter. At all events you have a son who is able to
supply your phice. I accept him beforehand, and T wait
from 'either of you an indication of my opponent and the
seconds.'"

LIMERICK AND FOYNES.

A general meeting of this company was held on 14taturday
at Limerick—Mr. W. H. Barrington was called to the Chair.
MONSELL called the attention of the meeting to the
interview of a deputation with Lot d Derby within the past
week, at which it had been stated that the last commis-
sion on the western harbours of Ireland had not given
its preference to Foyers Harbour as an American
packet station: The right hon. gentleman went on to
read from the report it,elf, in which the commissioners
distinctly state that they have given the preference
to the Shannon over the port of Galway ; and that of
the ports in toe Shannon they consider Foyncs the best
adapted f r the purpose of a packet station. Mr. Mons-ell
further observed that while there was no desire on the part
rf te meeting to detract from the merits of any other port,
or lessen its cldins on the Go►ernment, it was but proper
that Lord Derby should be set right on the subject, and net
he misinformed as to the decision of the commissioners.

A resolution proposed by Mr. MoNsELL and seconded by
Mr. WHITE was unanimously adopted, requesting the
chairma❑ to call Lord Derby's attention to the report, and
inform his lordship that the line of railway from Foynes to
Limerick, which time commissioners considered to be neces-
sary to fit Foynes for a transatlantic packet station, is now
constructed and at work.

THORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTiLE.-
It is only a short time since this singularly efficacious article
of animal diet first made its appearance ; and already its celebrity
is worldwide. It has been a subject of wonder, and has puzzled
many a brain to explain how this has been brought about. Yet
when we are acquainted with a few facts concerning the food, our
wonder will cease. A few days since, a gentleman wrote, stating
that he had a horse which was a "perfect bag of bones." He tried
all kinds of things to get the animal into condition, but in vain.
Ile then bought some of Thorley's food; and he says the effect was
wonderful. The horse rapidly grew fat, mad in the course of a few
weeks had gained no less than 12 stones. Again we find at the late
agricultural show at Birmingham, Cardiff, Br.c., the animals which
carried off the highest prizes had been partly fed with Thorley's
food for cattle. Such facts speak for themselves, and we are forced
to the conclusion that its celebrity arises solely from its own in-
trinsic merits, and the great demand for it can proceed alone from
the good opinion and testimony of those who have tried it. All

RIFLED GUNS SUPERSEDED.

According to a statement printed in the Constieutionnel
of August 2, M. A. Muller, a non-commissioned officer in
the French military service (63d of the line) has devised a
means of rendering ordinary smooth bore arms, whether
large or small, equal in precision to rifle guns, whilst neces—
sarily abolishing all the inconveniences attendant upon
rifling.

The result altogether depends upon the shape of the pro-
jectile, which is that of a helix. The ball weighs 36
grammes, and its length is two centimetres ; the charge
being six grammes. The windage is six millimetres. The
height of the conical part of the projectile is 11 millimetres.
The directive peculiarity of the missile is situated posteriorly,
and conststs of six vanes or wings arranged helically around
a central point. The helices are so arranged that they
receive the blast of powder and cause the missile to revolve
whilst yet in the barrel: According to experiments per-
formed by M. Muller, at Nancy, with his new projectile dis-
charged from an ordinary smooth arm musket (model 1822),
it was established that the aim was susceptible of great
accuracy up to 800 metres. Subsequently, at Plornbierse,
M. Muller had the honour of presenting to the Emperor a
circumstantial report of his helical ball, accompanied by a
specimen. He, moreover, proposed to the Emperor the
adoption of this form of missile tor ordnance, also to manu-
facture leaden projectiles for musketry by pressure, thus
obviating the use of fire, and enabling the manufacture to
be carried on in the same establishment, portable if desired,
thus enabling it to accompany an army on campaign, and
to turn out cartridges when wanted.

EDINBURGH AND BATHGATE.

----
The ordinary half-yelrly meeting of the shareholders of
this company was held at Edinburgh, on Tuesday—Mr.
Thomas Hill, chairman, presiding. The report for the half-
year, ending July 31, was read by the secretary. It stated
that, in terms of a resolution passed at last half-yearly
ordinary meeting, the directors gave the shareholders the
option of paying up their shares in full and receiving per
cen t. on such pre-payment, of which option the shareholders
holding 422 shares bad availed themselves, and the sum of
£3,094 was received from these sources as at Whitsunday
last. The directors had been inclined to receive the debenture
bonds falling due at Whitsunday last, en what they consider
favourable terms, and without the usual expenses ; but
as the reduction has been accomplished so recently the full
value will not be derived by the shareholders until the next
half year. The directors recommended that the dividend to
be declared for the half year enclirg the 31st July last should
be at the rate of ss. 9d. the share. Two vacancies having
occurred in the direction, one from the death of Mr. Sligo,
the other from the resignation of slr. Shairp, of Houston!),
the directors had elected Mr. W. Johnston, of Bathgate,
and Mr. James Alexander, of Balmule, Dunfermline, to the
vacant seats at the board. From the extract of accounts
appended to the report it appears that on actual account
there is a balance of £348 2s. Gd. at the credit of the corn-

THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH.
The special correspondent of the Freeman newspaper
continues his interesting narrative in this morning's impres-
sion of that journal. The following portion of his com-
munsal ication contains some particulars well worthy of
peru:—
" Mr. Whitehouse and Professor Thomson, the elec-
tricians, aided by Mr. Bartholomew, the superintendent,
and an efficient staff of clerks, are engaged night and day
in communicating with the electricians at the other end of
the line, and receiving from them ship signals' in reply—
in fact, a current of electricity continues to pass
without intermission along the wires. As I stated
in my first letter, I do not think it is possible
to have full communication with America before a fort-
night at least at the earliest; and, in all probability,
the delay will extend to* three weeks. This should not
cast any doubt upon the success of the cable, or dis-
hearten the public, who have looked forward to its ac-
complishment with so much of interest and anxiety.
It must be remembered that the arrangement of the
batteries .is one of great labour; that the electrical
instrument is extremely elaborate; and that it took Mr.
Whitehouse, aided as he was, and having every appliance at
his baud, three weeks of incessant labour to get matters
into working order here. At Newfoundland many of the
facilities which were found in Valentia do not exist. I un-
derstand that the instrument house was scarcely finished
when the Niagara anchored in Trinity Bay • and, under
these circumstances, the arrangement of apparatus
will necessarily occupy a considerable time. The delay
which must ensue before a message can be transmitted from
America to Ireland was foreseen from the first by the ma-
nacer of the expedition. Through the courtesy of Mr.
Whitehouse, I have had an opportunity of seeing the instru-
ment at work: In addition to the prearranged signals, Mr.
Whitehouse has transmitted several messages to which he bas
received intelligible replies. Thus, he has sent a message certain
signals;' to
this effect—' If you receive this message, reply by
and the reply has been accordingly, showing that

tura she fixed her fate for life. For some years it
was a very stormy one, but at last she formed some
fixed principles for her guidance, which rendered
herindependent of outward circumstances, and for
happiness, in quest of which she had so signally
failed, substituted a peace wit:eh not even her fitful
fate could destroy. The succeeding passages of
the story are very ably des.cribed, and the extraor-
dinary conduct of Henry D'Orville at the last is not
so improbable as some might suppose, when we
take into consideration the morbid tendency of his
temperament. He went on for years in a series
of mental tortures, to which bodily sufferings
cannot be compared for present agony, and future
consequences. Blanche, his sister, is a meek, gentle
young creature who seems worthy of a better posi-
tion than that of being under the direction of one
so perverse and vacillating as. her brother. It is
well for her when she exchanges his sway for the
protection of the manly " Harry D'Orville, than
whom a greater contrast cannot be supposed to
exist. After beholding the whirlwind of passion,
which swept over the frame of the excited family iii
the hour of her trial, when her husband left her, it
was a relief to the straightforward and well-regu-
lated mind of Cousin Harry to unite himself to one
so tender and true as Blanche. She was weak per-
baps, but that was preferable to her sister-in-law's
vain strength, and mistaken in her motives,- but
1 they were not of self while many unworthy influences
combined to rule the other. Those who are pleased
with exciting stories will appreciate this one in
question, and the excitement is not a false stimulus
imparted to its course, which leaves it at last the
weaker from its fatal agency. On the contrary, it
is a strong argument, explained in an unvarnished
manner, and illustrated by suffering monitors
against deceit and treachery, against passion of
every s ,rt, whether of anger or jealousy, and the
whole is narrated, with a talent that irresistibly
attracts, and a vigour that stamps it with life and
energy.
