form confederation of the colonies under central
or federal department, organized the plan of the
United States The party in favor Of this change in
the government of the colonies obtained last year the
ascendency in the local Parliament but it viii be
seen from the following paragraph, which we find in
the London Star of August 18TH that their republi
can zeal has met with repulse from the home gov

correspondence is printed between the Australian
colonsts in London and the colonial office the sub

The correspondence comprises memorial, urging on her
Maestys government the importance of at once intro
ducing bill into Parliament to enable the Australian
colonies to form federal assembly and answer stating
that Mr. Labouchere has attcntvey considered this i'm
portant ubject but that he is of opinion that her Maje

character Copies OF the correspondence to be sent to
the several governors of the Australian colonies Then

SUGAR DUTIES IN THE zoLLvERE1N.

We stated some weeks since that the Zollverein
conference lately in session had under discussion
apropositon to raise the duties foreign and do
nestle, or bcetroot sugar, and unpublished at length
the details of this proposition. We are now inform
ed by commercial correspondent at Berlin that the
conference has closed without coming to any result
on the question. There was no opposition to an nd
vance in duty on beet-root sugar to u slberfgs te
quntal but the difficulties surrounding the question
Of duties ON colonial foregn) refined sugar, and Of
the premium exporting colonial sugar raw) re-
fined in Germany, could not be settled. Hanover
would consent to what was required on the two last
points only on the condition that beetroot-sugar
duty was raised to 81 slbergros and the consequence
was that the whole negotiation broke down.

The numerous friends Of the Hon. James j. Faran
of Ohio will be delighted to learn that he has been
induced TO assume the editorial management of The
Cincinnati Enquirer, paper hitherto known as an
able and efficient organ Of the democracy and which
in his hands is destined tosecmc deeper hold upon
the confidence and respect Of the democratic party
Mr.. Faran is gentleman Of marked ability a
writer; of large experience in the political affairs Of
the country; and Of tried and approved fidelity to
the principles of the democratic party. Enjoying
the confidence of his party, capable journalist,
and popular as a man, it would be strange indeed if
he did not meet, in the enterprise in which he has
embarked, large share of pecuniary and political
success.

institution with reputed capital of 1852 ,000 whose
customers were chiefly among mechanics, builders and
small traders several days ago found themselves expand
cd beyond prudent limits, and Obliged to call upon
the larger city banks TO rcdcount portion of their bills
receivable On Saturday they were again short and as
noticed by this morning the banks again responded to
their call This brought the institution under the notice
of the clearing house committee, who last mig met at
the bank to make examination of its affairs The exam
nation less satisfactory than hoped for and decien

was traced it is said to the paying teller and warrant
was obtained for his arrest. The committee at once
suspended the institution from the privilege of ex-
changing at the Clearing House, and nohhed all the
banks that effect In consequence Of this the bank
stopped payment this morning The circulation about

Upon the heel of the above announcement came the
report of the suspension Of Mcsrs Eechc Coz bankers
