711 E AMERICAN MINISTER A 7

SHEMELD.

(From the Anglo-American Times.)
His Excellency REVERDY JOHNSON attended the
annual feast of the Sheffield Cutlers' Company last
Thursday, and, as the honoured guest, delivered
the speech of the evening. Its tone will every-
where in this empire be received with the utmost
satisfaction; for it spoke of a lasting friendship
where England most desires to be friend?. Making
all due allowance for the occasion, enough remains
to assure every reader as well as every hearer that
the American Minister is a messenger of peace.
For no other people do the Americans entertain a
kinder feeling, exclaimed Mr. JOHNSON, who, per-
haps, as well as any mau alive, knows his country-
men. 'We are, in fact, he continued, "by origin
and institutions one people; we have a common
name, a kindred blood, similar privileges, and
equal protection. Our political institutions are
fashioned from yours, with a deep and undying at-
tachment to human liberty in their foundation. In
our hand—l mean in our joint hand—that liberty
will live for ever." His Excellency then alluded to
the civil war (many assert that it is impossible
for an American to make a speech or deliver a lecture
without such an allusion) as an inheritance through
slavery left to America by their common ancestors. lie
next touched on the Presidential election, declaring
from his personal knowledge of both the candidates
that., whichever shall be the choice of the people,
"You will Lind in him a friend of England." We are
glad to have Mr. JOHNSON'S opinion on this subject,
for many have said that Gen. GRANT is a goal hater ;
that, disgusted with England's course dating the
civil war, he conceived towards her a bitter dislike,
which he would take an early opportunity of show-
ing, if elected to the Presidential Chair. Turning
to Lord WIIARNCLIFFE, the Minister continued,
" Your father was a guest of mine for some four or
five days some four or five:years ago. It was during
the session of a Convention for the nomination of a
candidate for the Presidency. He was doing me the
honour to stay with me, and he expressed a hope
that we should stand together. He was obligel to
leave me, and I received a telegraphic communica-
tion from him from Philadelphia, after which he
wrote me a long letter, saying that he had never
heard the mune of • tho putlevatuz Aorablated, and

MISS BYE'S CANADIAN SCHEME.

The Pall Mall Gazette remarks that Miss Rye has not
been so successful in Canada as she desiroi. She
hoped to induce the G .vernment to assist her
iu bringing out another shipload of young women,
but she offered a hundred pounds, which was
tantamount to a refusal. A Toronto paper explains that
the motive for withholding the aid applied for is the uncer-
tainty whether the girls would remain in Canadaaiter tho Go-
vernment had paid all their expenses. The people look with
greater favour on the proposal to send them orphans from
England, for children they could hope to bring up, so
that they would afterwards settle in the dominion. The
Mormon arrangement is worth Miss Rye's notice—we moan,
of course, only as regards recruiting their colony. Money
is advanced to people who desire to go to Utah, but they
are expected to repay it. It is easier to carry out
this scheme in Utah than it would be in Canada,
but still something could be done by its means to induce the
immigrants to settle down, instead of yielding to the delu-
sion that in the United States they would be better off. The
Canadian Government might perhaps be more favourably
inclined towards Miss Rye's proposal if she would incorpo-
rate this plan with it.

MARLBORO UGII-STREET.

DARING ROBBEV.— Henry King, address refused,
but describing himself as a clerk, was charged be-
fore Mr. Knox with stealing from the person of
Mr. Christian Olifiers, a merchant residing at No.
4, Devonshire-terrace, Kingsland-green, a gold
watch and chain of the value of £l3.

When the prisoner was taken into custody a sham
watch, known by the slang of a" Spide," was found
in his possession.
Mr. Olitiers, a Dutch merchant, said about 12
o'clock last night he was in Regent-street, when
prisoner ran up and tore his watch and chain away
d ran off. Ile cried " Stop thief," and the
police stopped him and brought him back. The
robbery was an instantaneous one, and done very
cleverly. The police acted so well in the matter
that he should like to leave them some thing, so
that their meritorious conduct might be mentioned
in the papers.

Mr Knox asked Inspector Basoa what was the
usual course?

Inspector Bason said the constables might receive
a reward, but would have to report the circum-
stance to the commissioners of police.
Police-constable Tyler, 52 C, said that hearing
a cry of " Stop thief," and seeing the prisoner runs
fling, he stopped him, when he said that it was only
a lark. He took the prisoner into custody, and
found the watch in his hand.

Police-constable Weeks, 50 C R, said that while
with Tyler he saw the prisoner put his hand up his
back and drop the watch. The prisoner said he was
a fool to have gone the way he did, and that he had
better taken the park.
Mr. Knox remanded the prisoner, and desired
that he might be well looked after.
Mr. Olitiers handed a sovereign to Mr. Inspector
Bason for the constables.

MONEY AND BUSINESS.

(From the Springfield Republican, Aug. 22.)
Quietness and steadiness, with a fairly active demand,
have been the main characteristics of the money market
for the past week. At New York responsible borrowers
have had their wants provided for quite promptly at 4 to 5,
generally at 4 per cent. on unexceptionable collaterals,
such as public funds. To a few of the more extensive
dealers in national securities some advances have been made
as low as 3 per cont. Mercantile paper of short date has been
cashed at 6 to 7 per cent. per annum, generally at the latter
figure. At Boston rates are held pretty firmly, though
the supply of loanable funds is ample for the demand. The
banks accommodate their best customers at 6 per cent.,
cthers at 61 to 7, and outside paper, though good, is rarbly
discounted at a lower figure than 8 per cont. Only a few
call loans are made, the rate being generally at 5 per cent.
Reports frcm the West tell, as usual, of a brisker demand
and higher rates. At Cincinnati, in the open market, 10
to 12 per cent. is charged, though the banks discount
to their depositors at Bto 9. The money market at Chi-
cago indicates an increase of business, the demands for
loans being better than for some weeks past; but 10 per
cent., which seems to be the stancbtrd rate at the western
ma. opolis, is still the price at which prime paper is die-
c3unt2d. The markets at the West notice a strong ten-
dency of currency " t-iwards the interior," and New York
is sensible of a similar, though less pressing, demand from
West. The fact is, the nincli-talked-of demand for
money "to move the crops" his not yet been felt to any
appreciable extent.
The bears have boon rampant all the week at the New
York Stock board, and scarcely a stock which is sold there
but has suffered to a mere or less degree. The general
decline may be attributed mainly to a great fall in Erie
a fall so marked as to bring down the whole share list
along with it. All the week it has been dropping like
lead, and has sold as low as 45, a fall of 12 per cent. in loss
than a week, and 22 per cent in less than a month. To
account for the decline some have sought special reasons.
It is stated, with seeming simplicity, that Mr. Drew is
depressing Erie with a view to buying in the stock to
vote upon at the October election of directors. This may

l'Zt ELOQUENCE OF "CONSTITU-

TIONALISM.",

Couftltutionalism" is, it muss be owned, a grefali
•
mystery. 'A'S a conundrum it is quite as good in its watt
as the representation of minorities. Mr. Tipping, a "Constitu-
tional" candidate for Stockport, has just published his rd-
dress, which is more remarkable for its poetical fang Age
than its intelligibility. It contains the following fine sen-
tence, reminding one strongly of the mawkish platitudes
which the more weak-minded of our grandfatberatwere
in the habit of propounding after dinner unair the
name of sentiments :—" The bulk of the nation
is invested with the rights and responsibilities of
citizenship. With a gauge so widened it is more than ever
essential that the wheels of progress should bite tho consti-
tutional rails." Mr. Tipping, it should be added, is a rail-
way director. —Pall Malt Gazette.

NEWSPAPER
'SCOTLAND AND TEE: LIDERAL PARTY.V:4
•
The Nonconformist gives some interesting particularcf'
concerning the approaching contest *Scotland. Under';
the new Reform Act Scotland will Ili &tar% return
sixty instead of fifty-three members teParliaznent—
eight new seats having been given to her, and
two, small counties, Peebles and Selkirk, being
amalgamated for Parliamentary purposes. Strange
as it may appear, the appeal to the constituencies
north of the Tweed is almost decided more than two
months in advance of the general election. Thera are no
less than thirty-one seats for which Liberals are
likely to be returned without the semblance of a
contest. Thus, in more than one-half the Scotch con-
stituencies the return of Liberal candidates will not even
be challenged by their opponents. In sixteen other
constituencies there is a prospect of a conflict, but
it is Liberal against Liberal ; no Tory venturing to
show his face. There are the Border Burghs, Dumfries,
Dumbarton, Dundee (2), Edinburgh (2), Fifeshire,
Greenock, Kilmarnock, Kirkcudbright, Leith, Linlithgow,
Paisley, Stirling, and Wick. In all these places the con-
flict is one of persons and not of principles, and so weak
is the Conservative element that it cannot even profit by
division in the ranks of its foes. In three places only
are the Tory candidates to have a walk over. Mr. Disraeli
cannot command a single town constituency of North
Britain. The remaining ten scats of Scotland will be con-
tested between Liberals and Tories. Assuming that four
only of these constituencies will return Liberal members,
the aggregate result will be as follows :
Liberals unopposed ... :32
Seats contested by Liberals only
Seats won by Liberals (say)

Tories unopposed -
Seats won by Tories (say) .
Majority for the Liberals

6- 9

That is to say, Scotland is more likely to send to the new
House of Commons fifty-one Liberals against nine Tories.
In other words, seven-tenths of the entire electoral vote of
a country pre-eminently Protestant will be cast in favour
of the disestablishment and disendowment of the Irish
Protestant Stat,-. Church-'so little influence has the "No

FIRE-ESCAPE ACCIDENT.

On Thursday evening a number of new fire-escapes,
similar in construction and turned out by the same maker
as those which obtained prize medals at the Great Exhibi-
tion of 1851, and also at the International Exhibition,
were publicly tested at the depot of the Metropolitan
Brigade, at Doctors'-commons. The machines had been
respectively tested by the weight of three or four of the
firemen running up and down the machine, and at length
six men were sent up the escape to test its capability for
bearing a large number of persons in the event of a fire
breaking out. Whilst going through these dangerous
evolutions, at the time there were six or seven men
on the ladder, a loud crash was heard, and the fire-
men were seen falling upon each other. Two
were precipitated foremost down an opening lead-
ing to the basement of the old Prerogative Court.
All the other hands present ran forward to the rescue of
their companions, when some were found to have sus•

tained severe flesh wounds ; but two of the conductors
were supposed to have received concussion of the brain,
and after being seen by a medical man they were placed
in a cab and conveyed to the hospital. It is stated that
both men arc past recovery.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-THIS DAY.

BO W-STREET.
TIIE FRAUD ON THE INLAND REVENUE.—Sydney
Charles Jackson, pawnbroker's assistant, was
placed at the bar charged with being concerned in

the fraud on the Inland Revenue which has lately
been discovered.

It will be recollected that a man named lkfbnk is
at present under remand on a charge of fraudu-
lently transposing certain stamps whereby a number
of cancelled foreign bill stamps were made to ap-
pear as new and genuine stamps, ranging from ss.
to £1 each. The frauds were accomplished by re-
moving the Queen's head from a new penny stamp,
placing it neatly over the cancelled mark on the
old one. The trick had been most perfectly per-
formed, and it is feared that it has been carried on
to some considerable extent.

Police Sergeant Kerley stiid, consequeace of
certain directions h.; that morning, went to Ilford
gaol, and there, on the prisoner leaving it, ho
arrested him, and toll him the charge against him,
namely, transposing stamps with intent to defraud
the Commissioners of Inland Revenue. lie said he
could tell where he got the stamps from. Ile ob-
tained them from a man named Mark, who stopped
him at the corner of Bryan-place, Caledonian-road,
and said he had just had some money left
him, part of which was in stamps. He gave him the
stamps produced, and asked him to pawn them after
which he (prisoner) took them to some pawn_
brokers in the borough, who refused to have any-
thing to do with them. He afterwards went to a
jeweller's in WhitechapA and purchased a watch,
and he also obtained another watch under similar
circumstances in the Whitechapel-road, and then
handed up the ticket. With the remainder of stamps
he purchased some clothes at Mr. Moses's, Isling-
ton-green. He (witness) asked him if he had known
the man Monk before, and he replied that he had
seen him some time previous at the shop of his
(prisoner's) master, Mr. Mallett, a pawnbroker in
the Caledonian-road. He (prisoner) had iden-

tified Muck as the person from whom he had
received the stamps. On searching him he
found the card of the tradesman of whom he had
bought the watch and chain. Some other pawn-
brokers' tickets were found in his pockets.
Inspector Brennan produced a number of frau-

FIRE-ESCAPE ACCIDENT.

On Thursday evening a number of new fire-escapes,
similar in construction and turned out by the same maker
as those which obtained prize medals at the Great Exhibi-
tion of 1851, and also at the International Exhibition,
were publicly tested at the depOt of the Metropolitan
Brigade, at Doctors'-commons. The machines had been
respectively tested by the weight of three or four of the
firemen running up and down the machine, and at length
six men were sent up the escape to test its capability for
bearing a large number of persons in the event of a fire
breaking out. Whilst going through these dangerous
evolutions, at the time there were six or seven men
on the ladder, a loud crash was heard, and the fire-
men were seen falling upon each other. Two
were precipitated foremost down an opening lead-
ing to the basement of the old Prerogative Court.
All the other hands present ran forward to the rescue of
their companions, when some were found to have sus•
tallied severe flesh wounds ; but two of the conductors
were supposed to have received concussion of the brain,
and after being seen by a medical man they were placed
in a cab and conveyed to the hospital. It is stated that
both men arc past recovery.

STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, Sept. 4.—This market has become
quieter as the week advanced. To-day the demand
has been sluggish in all departments, and sellers hall°
for the most part abandoned the extreme quotations
which. were current on Monday and Tuesday. SO flf
there is no pressure to sell, as in the two or three
weeks previous to the present a large business w 35
done, and prod imrs got well under contract. Co"„;
sinners have bought cotton freely this week, althoug
not in excess of their consumption ; and the weel'.ll,
return to the trade is scarcely so large as the cisu'in
reports seemed to indicate. Imports of cotton bl"
been heavy, amounting to 114,000 bales, 0111.1°4
East Indian. American, Egyptian, and other lot'
stapled cottons are comparatively scarce, andt„
stock is small compared with what it was last Ye3'a
consequently spinners who use such cottontiouJilfea
are compelled to stand out for very full Prices
their yarn. In long-stapled cotton a further us-
crease must take place during the next three months ;
stocks of the heavy woollen manufacturers are yel
l,
low, and the mills are necessarily obliged to
overtime.
NOTTINGHAM, Friday.—There was rather spore
for cotton yarns on 'Change this inornju.
eg
Quotations were not altered, and getter/111Y p
rier,
were steady ; in some instances, ho at cv
a great desire to sell was noticeable, a_e_
fractional decline from the extreme
cently asked. Few inquiries for silks W..,e0
made. No alteration in cotton nets since
is
Tuesday. The demand for cotton quillingserly
comparatively limited, and some of the maehhioao,
has been turned to the production of other g,l)this
Generally, the lace trade has been less brisk the
week, the prolongation of fine weather keePing in
ds
home trade rather quiet. There are some V° incl
strong demand for America and the Continent,ol,
holders of fancy machinery are mostly doing 10,
rates
erre
all hands being employed. The hosiery trade de,
mains quiet, and in one or two branches the
nand is not sufficient to prevent competition. 00
SHEFFIELD, Friday.—Accounts respeetingcone
state of trade here are very conflicting, „30
houses having almost as many orders as thel of
well execute, whilst others are complainiegabt,
no
cl°
continued depression. There can be 0010
however, that trade is improving, though ill Sg
yet
branches the improvement is so slow as to be a-cheS
hardly perceptible. Most of the heavy bran iron
are fairly active ; none of them except the :too
branch has any reason for complaint. The tho
trade unfortunately does not progress
iI.IOIIC
same proportion as the steel, railway-, arcooe
plate, and other hardy branches ; but
orders
roved
on in the distance have several good vea
on hand. The demand for steel has is a
both for home and export. The file trade
trifle more active, the better qualities being
and
in demand ; the same is the case with Spring
ifor
poiket cutlery. For the secondary grades anh c1.,„3
cav"
table blades there is but little inquiry. d for
for the better has taken place in the dernsution
saws, but all the other edge tool branches con
inactive.

Loss OF THE YACHT CHALLENGE.—We learn
that the yacht Challenge' the property of Jacob Lorillard,
of New York, and which latterly has been running with
merchandise in the West Indies, was recently lost on a
reef about fourteen miles from Para, while on her return
voyage to Now York. The Challenge was of 310 tons
burthen, which, With the exception of the Alarm, made her
the largest yacht ever built in America.

aR,

SCOTLAND AND-TIM LIBERAL PARTY.

The Nonconformist gives some interesting particulars
concerning the approaching contest in Scotland. Under
the new Reform Act Scotland will in future return
sixty instead of fifty-three members to Parliament--
eight new seats having been given to her, and
two' small counties, Peebles and Selkirk, being
amalgamated for Parliamentary purposes. Strange
as it may appear, the appeal to the constituencies
north of the Tweed is almost decided more than two
months in advance of the general election. There are no
less than thirty-one seats for which Liberals are
likely to be returned without the semblance of a
contest. Thus, in more than one-half the Scotch con-
stituencies the return of Liberal candidates will net even
be challenged by their opponents. In sixteen other
constituencies there is a prospect of a conflict, but
it is Liberal against Liberal ; no Tory venturing to
show his face. There are the Border Burghs, Dumfries,
Dumbarton, Dundee (2), Edinburgh (2), Fifeshire,
Greenock, Kilmarnock, Kirkcudbright, Leith, Linlithgow,
Paisley, Stirling, and Wick. In all these places the con-
flict is one of persons and not of principles, and so weak
is the Conservative element that it cannot even profit by
division in the ranks of its foes. In three places only
are the Tory candidates to have a walk over. Mr. Disraeli
cannot command a single town constituency of North
Britain. The remaining ten seats of Scotland will be con-
tested between Liberals and Tories. Assuming that four
only of these constituencies will return Liberal members,
the aggregate result will be as follows :
Liberals unopposed
Seats contested by Liberals only
Scats won by Liberals (say)

Tories unopposed
Seats won by Tories (say)
Majority for the Liberals 42
That is to say, Scotland is more likely to send to the new
House of Commons fifty-one Liberals against nine Tories.
In other words, seven-tenths of the entire electoral vote of
a country pre-eminently Protestant will be cast in favour
of the disestablishment and disendowment of the Irish
Protestant State Church—so little influence has the " No
Popery " bugbear among the intelligent Prgbyterians
north of the Tweed !

GREECE.

ATHENS, Dec. 9.
In reply to a question put to him on the present
state of affairs, the Minister for Foreign Affair/
declared in the Chamber to•clay that the Porte
contemplated breaking of diplomatic relations
with the Government on account of the generous
succour which Greek subjects had given to Candla
in her struggle. He stated that the Ambassador°
of the great Powers in Constantinople bad inter'
vened to prevent the contemplated rupture foul
taking place, and declared that the Government
acted in conformity with the requirements 01
national dignity and with the desires of the nation.
Next week he would lay all diplomatic documents
referring to the present momentous position 01
affairs before the House.
