SMOKE ON THE PACIFIC CoAsT.-It is a
singular fact that with the wind setting
toward the land, the smoke which was OBJ
served in San Francisco a few days since
was even more dense off the entire coast,
north of this port. for some distance at sea.
than at any point on tie land. Captain
johnson, of the schooner Mary Reed, just
returned from Coos Bay, reports that while
off the coast near that place, he encountered
smoke so dense as to be almost suifocating,
and which seriously INSTRUCTED his progress.
lie also states that in one day three hun
dred birds fell dead upon the deck of the
schooner. 1t is still an open question
whether the smoke came from Oregon as
generally believed at first, or from some
point to seward, and its character and Or
igin is yet matter of doubt.

LONDON, Oct. 23.-The Times Of this
morning comments favorably upon the ban
quet at Liverpool, and says Mr.. Johnson's
speech, 50 unrcseryed and earnest, shows q
desire for practical peace.making. The
ministers on both sides seem anxious to set
tie the pending question with Mr.. Seward,
because hs held office when the difficulties
arose, and may not desire to leave them to
his successor to treat in manner which
might be rejected and Lord Stanley, be-
cause he has been, so far, successful in his
policy, and must wish, when he retires, to
know he has done his work, BY common
consent allowed to be the most difficult
accomplishment which he has had placed
before him.
LIVERPOOL, Oct 23.--Some people stayed
away from the dinner given by Reverdy
johnson last night, because Mr.. Laird was
invited to be present. The climax of the
banquet was reached, when the chairman
introduced Mr.. Laird to the American min,
lister They grasped hands firmly, shook
them cordially and held each other by the
hand #hIe exchanging some words.

The telegraph brings the information from
Washington that the daily internal revenue
receipts have fallen of from an average of
quarter of million per day to considerably
less than 100000 for the same length of
time. Business men will have no difficulty
in understanding what this means. Itmeaus
that the business of the whole country is be,
coming stagnsnt under the influence of rad
ical rule, and will continue to grow worse
until the radical party and the radical policy
shall be repudiated by the people. The
financial issue is Of equal importance to
business men and the laboring classes The

radical design, aud his advantage will accrue
at the sacrifice of every other interest in the
