been n little excitement and alarm created in
the public mind by report that the plague
had made its appearance on the coasts OF Spain,

disease has not been known in England, nor

The nomination Of General Pierce, Of New Hamp-

President, has had wonderful effect in inspiring
confidence among the British capitalists. No one
seems to entertain doubt Of his election in due

The fearful riots and bloodshed at Belfast, in
which two hostile religious paroles, drawn up in regu-
lar battle array against each other, followed close
upon the heels of the Stockport riots. The wonder
is that more disturbances from the cause have
not taken place, for it is certain that the ministry of
Lord Derby placed great reliance, at the eiec-
tons, upon the element of religious bigotry
and the caption Of ''No Popery." They have
not been disappointed as to bloodshed: but
they have been woefully as to results in their
favor, having not gained throughout the length
and breadth of the land more than ten or n

England is, in the present day, in a remarkable
quasi condition, waiting Tor great events to hap

other, singularly divided and agtated the matter
of religion. This element OF social confusion will

of manners and reckessness in morals, indicating
great supervenng change of the old English charac-
ter AS TO politics, the change to be expected is
the putting on the screws and the establishment of
despotsm, which will be aided much by the incohe-
reney aud multiplicity of parties, the so-callel
liberal party being divided at least into nineteen
shades OF different parties, with different views and

| more than two parties of defined views and united
purposes; but when nation is weak, and is about
to ia into ruin, it has numberless parties, of infinite
purposes all ready to fight against each other like
