►SATISFACTORY LETTE R.

October 5, 1867.
Sin,—Some months back I had an attack of Bronchitis,
which left at times a tickling in the Throat, with other un-
plemant feelings. I was advised to try the BALSAM or
ANISEED; I did so, and have found very great relict; it is
most comforting in allaying the irritation, and giving
strength to the voice.

You are at liberty to m'ke use of this as you think proper.
and I earnestly hope that others may benefit by it as I have
done. With many thinks from your obedient Fervant.

The quotation ot gold at Paris is about at par, and
the short exchange on London is 25.171 per £1 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the English Mint price ot

The present fine weather is operating favourably on the
hop plant. In well situated grounds a great improvement
is already manifest, and the accounts from the low-lying
districts have boon more favourable than for some time
past. With a continuance of this weather the crop will
be considerably enhanced. The trade at the Borough is
quiet, at about late rates. The import of foreign hops into

The Tailors' Strike.

We regret to have to state that there is no like-
lihood of even a distant settlement of this unfortu-
nate agitation. Ou Saturday the general committee
and shop delegates of the Operatives' Association
resolved on continuing the strike until success attend
the efforts of the wol lima.), and at the same time
suggested that a scheme should be prepared by
which the movement could be carried on without
transgressing the law as laid down by Baron
Bramwell during the receut• trials. Though this
resolution may be to some degree palliated by the
excitement of the time, there is no d.mbt that the
men arc taking a step, or rather continuing a course
of procedure, which can only make their position
daily worse and worse. They ought to know by
this time that the masters are independent of those
now on strike, for by the employment of non-
union operatives and the assistance of newly-in-
vented machinery the business of the houses in which
the movement began is now being carried on with
the same regularity and nearly to the same extent
as previous to the commencement of the agitation.
The issue must be inevitably against the men, and,
indeed, they themselves tacitly confess their defeat,
for they are organising a scheme of emigration by
which many of those out of employment may pro-
ceed to America and other countries. It has also
been resolved to hold an aggregate meeting of the
trade as soon as possible to ratify the resolution of
the committee to continue the strike.

The Insurrection in Spain.

MADRID, Aug. 24.
It is officially announced that the main body of
the insurgents in Arragon is moving towards the
French frontier, closely pressed by the Royal
troops.

The Espana, a provincial journal, says :—" The
news from Catalonia to-day, is completely satisfac-
tory, and in consequence the Captain-General has
issued a proclamation granting an amnesty to any
one making his submission to the authorities. At
Reus perfect tranquillity prevails, and the insur-
gents who presented themselves at the Priory are
dispersing and throwing away their arms. The
numerous detachments of troops, skilfully dis-
tributed through that territory, which is the revo-
lutionists principal hope, will utterly destroy the
insurgents. Barcelona is perfectly tranquil, and
the manufactories are open. The rest of the prin-
cipality of Catalonia is is earn. Wherever the in-
surgents may he they will find the Royal army
before them. The band which entered Spain by
Upper Arragon is wandering between Hecho and
Canfranci menaced by several combined columns.
The attitude of thd inhabitants, of the army, and of
the authorities, in their efforts to put down this
last and supreme effort of revolution, has left
nothing to be desired. The bands of Aytonia and
other leaders have been beaten almost without
offering resistance."
The i;rovernor of Girone publishes the following :
—" Government of the province of Girone,—Two
bands composed of ten men each have appeared in
this province; they are being actively pursued by
the armed force. In publishing this intelligence in
an official and extraordinary bulletin, it is my duty,
and iu accordance with the frank feelings by which
I am fully
in no
fully I am characterised, to assure the faithful inhabitants
of the province that the appearance of those vaga-
bondss who, in the name of the revolutionists, desire

I shall neglect no means to secure the tranquil-
lity and well-being of the country, which, through
its loyalty and love of labour, i 3 so worthy of my
esteem and consideration.

(Signe3) " PEDRO ESTEVAN, the Governor.
Girone, Aug. 17, 1867."
The Espana, a Ministerial organ, does not be-
lieve that the insurgents meet with any serious sup-
port in the country. It considers that the ener-
getic action of the Government will produce the
best results, and will amply suffice to protect the
peaceful inhabitants.

The Espanol publishes the following similar
remarks : As for us, we declare that we have
no serious uneasiness on the subject, having confi-
dence in the Government. The revolutionists dis-
pose of elements that we consider the public
order It is for good citizens to attend to
acir usual vocations, knowing that the Govern-
ment watches over all and for 4.'7

New Metropolitan Traffic Act.

The Act for regulating the traffic in the metro-
polis, and for making provision for the greater secu-
rity of persons passing through the streets, was
issued on Saturday. There are 29 sections in the
Act, which is divided into two parts. The metro-
polis is defined to mean the city of London and all
places within the jurisdiction of the Board of Works.
The " general limits" of the Act means such parts
of the metropolis as are enclosed in a circle of which
the centre is Charing-cross and the radii are four
miles in length is measured in a straight line from
Charing-cross. The expression " the special limits"
of the Act is to mean such streets as may be declared
to be special limits. As to scavengers, it is enacted
that after the Ist of January next, between the
hours of ten in the morning and seven in the even-
ing, in such streets as may be named by the Com-
missioner of Police, no ashes, &c., are to be removed
from a house, and no goods deposited or unloaded,
under certain penalties, between the hours men-
tioned. Cattle are not to be driven through the
streets in the hours stated without the permission of
the Commissioner of Police, and the fines not to

stage carriage shall not stop such carriage for the
purpose of taking up or setting down passengers
at any part of a street except as near as may be to
the left or near side of the roadway. For acting in
contravention the fine is not to exceed 40s. Adver-
tisements on carriages, &c., are prohibited, except
those approved by the Commissioner, but the sec-
tion is not to apply to the sale of newspapers. The
Commissioner of Police may make " special limits,"
with the approval of the Secretary of State, and
regulations may be made after notice as to the route
of vehicles, &c., and for disobedience penalties are
to be enforced, and within special limits no driver
of a metropclitan carriage is to take up or set down.
Certain rules are to be enforced as to the delivery
of coals and timber, and as to hackney carriages.

THE OS7RICH.

A report addressed to the Societe d'Acclimatation
by M. Ilerifle, French Consul at Cape Town, contains
some interesting particulars respecting the domesti-
cation of the ostrich. It is well known that efforts
have been made in Algeria as well as in the South
of France to obtain this desirable end ; but as yet
the art of managing this valuable bird, and making
it multiply in a domestic state, is still in its infancy.
The additional information, therefore, now received
from the Cape of Good Hope, where similar experi-
ments have been tried, has been hailed here with
satisfaction. A farmer, who resides in the vicinity
of Cape Town, possesses a considerable flock of
ostriches, which he manages as follows :—A few days
after the young ones have left the egg, they are
enticed away to a separate shed by imitating the
mother's cry, and there they are fed with all
kinds of leaves, bulbs, carrots, lettuce, &c.,
chopped fine. Three or four days after a little
maize, wheat, or barley is added to this repast ;
at night they are kept warm in straw, hay, or
cotton, or shut up in a warm room, such as the
kitchen, for instance. They are not let out till the
sun is high, and they are fed the whole day long.
As to the old birds, or the younger ones six or eight
months old, they are left to themselves, and find
their own food wherever they please; they get a
little maize or other grain occasionally. The plum-
age of the domesticated ostrich is not quite so valu-
able as that of the wild ono, but yet fetches a good
price in the market. The above mentioned fanner
cleared £lOO from the feathers of 18 young ostriches
last year, though, from want of experience, the
birds had been clumsily plucked. The operation is
best performed in August or September, and not till
the age of 18 months.

CAB FARES. —The following provision appears iu
the new Metropolitan Ti.„ni: Act, issued on Saturday—
" When the fare now payable on hiring any hackney car-
riage standing on any stand shlll not amount to one shil-
ling the driver shall be entitled to charge one shilling."
It will Wit) effect on the i t;Soveillber.

TITANIFERO US SAND.

A curious paper has been received by the Academy
of Sciences on a sort of sand which is very common
in the Portuguese island of Santiago, in the Cape
Verd archipelago. This sand is composed of ex-
tremely small grains, jet-black, but not crystal-
line, accidentally mixed up with a very few
coloured particles. It is attracted by the magnet,
but all of its grains do not possess this property ;
and to separate those that do, M. Silva has
emplo;-ed the very process of attraction above
alluded to, whereby he has obtained 82 gms. of
magnetic matter out of 162 gins. of sand, being a
proportion of 55 per cent. The magnetic grains
are all black, with a metallic lustre ; they are very
hard, but may be ground to powder. Their den-
sity is 4.762. The powder soils the fingers, having
lost none of its original blackness.
Concentrated
hydrochloric acid will attack it at a high tempera-
ture,a phial provided with a long
tube
; nevertheless
n
a few coloured particles re-
maini eb untouched, o
wever anddi
sapp aweahriste precipitate is formed,
b when a little zinc is
especiallyi w
thrown in, and the solution then assumes a violet.
By analysis it is found tc contain 21 per cent. of
titanic acid, 52 of metallic iron, 2 of magnesia, 2 of
alumina, and traces of manganese and emery, the
latter constituting the residue. The untnagnetic
portion of the sand is composed of dull black grains,
which are not so hard as the others, and can be
much more easily reduced to powder, which then is
reddish and does not soil the fingers. Its density
is 3.131, it does not melt under the action of the
blow-pipe, and is but partially soluble in hydro-
chloric acid at a high temperature. It contains
silicic and titanic acids, iron, lime, alumina,
manganese, and emery. This sand might become
very valuable from the iron and titanic acid it
contains.

BOIiOUGH HOP.

The present fine weather is operating favourably on the
hop plant. In well situated grounds a great improvement
is already manifest, and the accounts from the low-lying
districts have been more favourable than for some time
past. With a continuance of this weather the erop win
be considerably enhanced. The trade at the Borough is
quiet, at about late rates. Tho import of foreign hops into

all-important orchestra stalls, which hold the same rank
as a row of stalls placed in front of th, dress circle, and
called the "balcony." The seats in the dress circle behind
the balcony hold the same rank as the body of the par-
quette. A tier above the dress circle contains the cheapest
places in the house, and the price of these is sometimes
stated in large letters at the head of the programme, as if it
were the charge for admission generally.
The gods by this arrangement are kept out of sight, and
among the rest of the aulience little difference can be de-
tected. If there be less of the brilliancy of the London
occupants of the stalls, there is none of the dinginess of
' the frequenters of London pits—the assembly generally
presenting the uniform character of an opulent, highly
respectable body. "The demeanour of the audience is quite
in keeping with their aspect. They are decorous to a
fault, and frequently so utterly undemonstrative in their
approbation that a person newly arrived from England,
observing the effect of a play upon the swctaters, would
declare that it was a complete failure, though the treasury
books would probably show that a thorough success had
been achieved. When the English roar, the Americans
merely smile, and even their smiles are sparingly be-
stowed, as if they would not commit themselves lightly.
That this stoical repression of hilarity indicates superiority

of judgment lamby no means prepared to assort. The
right smile does not always come in the right place, and
even when an exceptional roar is at last produced, it would
be hasty to infer that the best joke is its cause."

THE 0871tICH.

----,--
A report addressed to the Societe d'Acelimatatbn
by M. lierifle, French Consul at Cape Town, contains
some interesting particulars respecting the domesti-
cation of the ostrich. It is Well known that efforts
have been made in Algeria as well as in the South
of France to obtain this desirable end ; but as yet
the art of managing this valuable bird, and making
it multiply in a domestic state, is still in its infancy.
The additional information, therefore, now received
from the Cape of Good Hope, where similar experi-
ments have been tried, has been hailed here with
satisfaction, A farmer, who reside 3 in the vicinity
of Cape Town, possesses a considerable flock of
ostriches, which he manages as follows :—A few days
after the
enticed away to A separate shed by imitating the
young ones have left the egg, they are

kinds of leaks, bulbs, Carrotri, lettuce, &c.,
chopped fine. Three or four days after a little

Warm In lifty, or
Ntheafi or barley is added to this repast ;
at night they are kept
cotton, or shut up in a warm room, such as the
kitchen, for instance. 'they are not let out till the
sun is high, and they arc fed the whole day long.
As to the old birds, or the younger ones six or eight
months old, they are left to themselves, and find
their own food wherever they please; they get a
little maize or other grain occasionally. Tho plum-
age of the domesticated ostrich is not quite so valu-
able as that of the wild one, but yet fetches a good
price in the market. The above mentioned farmer
cleared £lOO from the feathers of 18 young ostriches
last year, though, from want of experience, the
birds had been clumsily plucked. The operation is
best performed in August or September, and not till
the age of 18 months. _ ....

IHE GRAIN AND CO7 TON CROPS.

•
• _ •
(New Fork Daily' Republican.)
The season has so far advanced that we are now
in a position to predicate, with intolerable accuracy,
the result of the crops of 1867. In the Southern
States the harvest, with the exception of corn and
cotton, is already secured ; while in the Western
States the work of reaping is still in active progress.
The accounts so far from the South, with regard to
bread-stuffs, are all that could be desired. The
yield is extremely favourable and fully up to the
average of most prosperous years. For the first
time probably in many years those States have
avoided the error of devoting all their energies to the
cultivation of cotton. Taught by a bitter experience,
planters and farmers have discovered that it is not pro-
fitable for them to purchase the corn and pork they
require for consumption. They have therefore
very sensibly devoted a larger breadth than ever
before to the cultivation of wheat and corn, and
the weather has been so favourable for these pro 7
ducts that the total results are likely to exceed all
former precedent. In Mississippi it is calculated
that this year's corn crop alone would support the
entire South for two years. From Alabama and
Georgia the accounts are no less favourable. From
Texas the reports are most cheering. A Houston
(Texas) journal, after collecting reports from all
parts of the vast State, concludes that it only re-
quired a few weeks of fine weather to render the
corn crop of the State all that could be desired.
Texas suffered least of all the Southern States from
the war, and has therefore recovered more quickly.
There has also been an extensive influx of Northern
men and capital during the last two years, and
favourable crops were all that was required to secure
to that magnificent portion of the country the ele-
ments of an enduring prosperity.
From the other Southern States the accounts of
the corn crops are generally satisfactory. Florida,
next to. Texas, is probably the most flourishing
State in the South. At lcart it has received large
accessions of capital, and of both white and coloured
labour, and the results are apparent in the in-
gathering of a most bounteous harvest. In the
Carolinas and in Mississippi, Louisiana and Arkan-
