PUBLIc FEELING IN ENGLAND TowARps
AaEslcA. The London correspondent OF
the New York Courier writes that public
feeling in England towards America is ex-
ceedingly friendly since the recent war bub-
bic burst. He says:
IAN incident OF considerable signficsncs,
as evincing the genuine feeling OF the most
infi uental and respectable ofthe population
of London tow ards the United States, oe-
Cured I'll Guildhall on Tuesday last, at the
visit Of the King of Sardinia to the city -
When Mr. Buchanan was announced he
was received with loud enthusiastic cheer
ing, which lasted for some time. This
spontaneous oatburst Of popular favor was
50 decided as TO command the attention Of
every person in that vast eoncourse. Il
was so marked, indeed, that even those pub
lie Journals which Systematically treat
America and Americans with GOODNESS and
indifference could NJ OF fail to speak of it."

NtsE EXPLOSION learn from the
Evansville (lnd. journal, that through some
carelessness among the miners at work in
the Bodiam Coal mines, few mics below
that city, fire was communicated TO four
kegs Of powder. A dreadful explosion at
once followed, by which four men were Sc
riously injured. AT first it was thought
that every man in the mines had been kill
ed and it seems wonderful that such was not
the fact The escape of the workmen from
death, was attributed to the excellent yen-
tilation Of the mines. which allowed a free
escape OF the gases.

GROSS SCPERsTITIoS.--Att the execution

the Enclosure was taken down, and more

from witchcraft. The rope that he was

HARD TINES AT WAsHINsToN.-Ihe PEG
pie of Washington are in terrible fix, ow-
ing TO the failure of the House TO elect a
Speaker. The members of the House can
not draw their mileage or wages until they
con,riye to organize, and The thousand chan
nels through which the cash belonging to
the whole people is distributed among the
ashingtonians, are cut off. A correspon-
dent Of the New York Herald considers the
speakership as pecuniary question. He
saws:
members have not drawn their pay nor
their mileage; and although they can get
along ION time" for board, they have no
spending money. Some even are deprived
Of their bacca," while do not actually be-

who could change you an \ if you were 20

lars would be here in extra circulation II
the Speaker was elected and the usual APP
propriations voted. As it is, Washington
Is hard UP. Its dependence Is retailing TO
members and visitors, and the storekeepers
declare trade was never as dull. Holiday
