The British Columbia Bill.

The gold discoveries on Frazer River nave
givsp fresh prominence and importance to the
British North American Provinces The de-
hates in Parliament on the British Columbia
Bill show that a new spirit has been awakened
and that the Home authorities are prepared to
sustain measures looking to more rapid deyei-
opment Of population and prosperity IN the vast
nossessiops of the Crown between the Atlantic
and the Pacific. The Queen, in her late speech
from the throne, on the occasion of the Proro'
cation of Parliament, made emphatic mention
of the British. American Provinces, and e1-
pressed the hope that the - new colony on the
Pacii, may be bat one step IN the career ol
steady progress by which Her Majesty's do
miniuns in North America may ultimately be
peoplei, in an unbrOken chain, from the Allan.
tic to the Pacific, by loyal and industrious pop
ulation of subjects of the British crown"
As those .'dominions" have now been brought
within speaking distance Of the throne, 1t is but
reasonable to suppose that England and Cana
da will become more than ever one country
Tue London Times well claims that England
has more to gain from the Atlantic Telegraph
than anv of her rivals, and that it has done
more for the consolidation Of the British Empire
than the wisdom of statesmen, the liberality OF
Legislatures, or the loyalty of eOlOnists, could
ever have effected.

TYPHOID FEvER.-The Chzrdon Democrat
states that Sheriff CIaPP Is now considered out
of danger, provided he does not suffer relapse,
and adds:
The sickness in this vicinity is somewhat
abating, and we know Of none that are eonsid-
cred dangerous Most Of the fatal cases have
occurred from typhoid fever, and a few from
erysipelas and dysentary. The cool dry wealth
er we are now experiencing is favorable for the
sick.
The typhoid fever continues to prevail in the
Ohio PenitentiAry. The Columbus Gazette of
the Goth says;
We passed through the hospital Of the Ohio
PenitentiaIy yesterday, where some sixty Pris-
oners are dovE with the typhoid fever. Two
deaths have occurred, and two more Of the
prisoners will die, probably, in day or two
About twenty cases may be considered serious,

rhlIrr Of the A,lanrlr TeIsEraph.

The New York Tribune of SATURDAY says
The great question Of thu day is whether the
Atlantic Telegraph can, after all, be rendered
useful with the apparatus now al our eomInsh1,

turn out that, in the very nature OF the case
dispatches cannot be transmitted with grealeF
rapidity than fifty words an hour, for example
a great disappointment will certainly be e1Pen-
eneed on the part Of the public as well as oil the

the telegraph lines laid down in the Medl'efra-
mean is worthy of consideration. These "eI.

Gov. Corwin on the stump.

Gov. Corwin has entered into the canvass
earnestly, and has already made speeches at
Morrow, Chillicothe, and other points. His
nomination appears to be fzvorably received in
the several counties composing the Warren
District, aud there is no doubt of his election
by large majority. The Republican press Of
the district gives him cordial support. Gov.
Corwin spoke at London, Madison county, a
few days -gO to large assemblage, and the
Columbus Gazette states that although the
hearers differed in their views of public policy,
they all agreed that 3" Gov. C. stood head and
shoulders above all the orators Of the land"

the sea running tremendously high the whole

and everything went well until the ship anchor

cable was safely landed close by the pier al

YeIIor Fererat New orIeans.

The deaths from yellow fever for some time
past amount to about fifty or sixty day, and
the papers OF New Orleans admit that it is pre-
vailing as an epidemic. TIE mortality from
other diseases is heavier than usual, and the
benevolent Howard Association has commenced
its labors From the lst 10 the 18th of August
the total deaths were $50, of which 4e5 were
by yellow fever. The Picayune admits that the
fever is undeniably on the increase, but claims
that it has not spread generally over the city.
Many cases Of swamp fever are reported among
both whites and blacks in the parishes of Lou
isiana, and IN the low lands of Mississippi, oe-
casioned by the floods and falling Of the waters.
Some cases skillful physicians pronounce ehron-
ie yellow fever.

says:
a The expenditures of the Government, for
the quarter ending June 3Oth 1858, were in
round numbers S23, 600, 900. At this rate they
would be for this year S92 100000 The belief
is that they will be much larger-at least the
estimates and appropriations have looked to that
result. The receipts are each week half mil
lion less than the expenditures, and there at
