auspices OF the great house Of Mcssrs. Glad

The railway mania does not at all abatc in
intensity.
The American Provision market has been
dull OF late. At the sailing Of the last steamer
the trade was inactive, and the same state OF
things continues. Anxiety to know the terms
OF the Government contract on the 26th has
suspended business in Beef and Pork. There
has been sale Of 1000 kegs Of damaged Lard
at ass Cd to 45s per cwt., but of prlme parcels
the market is bare. Tho market is without
Tallow, and the same may be said Of Cheese
In Ashes there has been Il good amount of bu-
siness dong, and some speculation. The best
/
eco per ton, and for Lead, eli los is obtained.
| The Cotton market is healthy and vigorous
The sales since Friday present an average of
1000 daily, Of which more than $500 daily
have been on speculation. Yesterday the mar
ket was not quite so buoyant, but the trade
purchase freely, and stocks are brought for
ward literally The improved feeling may be
traced to the unsettled state of matters with
Mexico, and to the general confidence which
is felt in the prosperity of our home trade. In
the manufacturing districts prices are on the
rise, and goods find ready sale The fine
weather which has enabled the farmer to house
the produce Of the field has acted most benef-
cially on business of every kind. Industry and
capital seem likely to find abundant employ
mcnt during the winter, and with such hatter-
ing prospects the national pulse beats high.
GRAND BATTLE IN CIRcAssIA. Intelligence
via Odessa, has been received of battle be-
tween the Crcassan forces of Schamil Bey
and the Russian army 100000 strong,) under
General Woronzoti, who attacked the town Of
Dargo, the headquarters of Schaml. After
five days hard fighting the Circassians were
obliged to abandon the fortress to the enemy,
having expended all their ammunition, not,
however, without carrying off their artillery
and baggage into the mountains. The loss on
the part of Russia is said to amount in killed
alone to 5000, among whom are three generals
and forty other officers, and four aides de-camp
Of the commandcr-ln-chef The latter, find
ing his army so much crippled, for the number
| OF wounded IS enormous, was destroying the
Notifications to retire to Tihs, to re-organize
his force. Dargo was defended by Schamil's
regular troops, consisting of a corps of Dagas-
tan infantry, and the Russian and Polish de.
serters from the Empcrors service.
FRANCE-PAms, Sept. l6. Mexico and
the United States have again occupied much Of
the attention of tie Partisan journalists; hutall
that has been said may be summed up in one
lnc-either that there will DC TO war al all, or
that, if war, the United States will complete
ly crush her puny adversary. The recent ar
rivals from Mexico have caused some little sur
prise, for they show that England is DESTROYS
that peace be maintained, whereas it was
thought that she would not only incite Mexico
to hostililes, but supply the means for carrying
them on.

crop OF potatoes Is almost entirely destroyed
III most places thirtjetl part not being worth
anything, and even in the places whore the dis

pllanc1 with the general wish of the country,
ministers have issued royal ordinance, decree
ing the admission Of wheat and all kinds of
corn together with potatoes, SC, duty free,
and iorblddmg the expectation OF such articles. .

high duty on imported articles as shall the e!-

sil having declared that she will not and can
not admit Brazilian produce, unless her own
manufactures are admitted on favorable terms
in the Brazilian markets.
Them religion is pretty much in the same
state as it was when last noticed it. In some
places It's apostles are received with favor, IN
Others they are peltcd and duckod. The po-
lice Of Berlin lave forbidden religious and po-
liticIl discussions III the cafes; ana Ronre and
