EXODUS FROM EURoPE.-If Bismarck
means to try conclusions with the
Frenchmen, he had better begin as soon
as possible. The German journals are
once more noticing the great emigra-
ton from the Prussian dominions-
not alone from the eastern districts, but
from the others as well. One day late
ly, $500 of the pesantry were conveyed
by rail to Bremen, and on the next,
1000 of the same class. The poor peo-
pie have no mind to confront needle
guns or Chassepots. The Irish people,
too, are turning their faces Westward
in great numbers. A letter from Cork
to the New York Herald, states that
two extra steamers, the Erin and Kan
garoo, which stopped al Queenstown on
the 18th ult., took on board nine
hundred adult emigrants for New
York; that nearly twenty-five hun
dred have left during the week,
and that great numbers are con-
stantIy on their. way to Queens
town, by steamboat or railroad, to en-
bark on the steamers for America. The
emigration, indeed, is thought to be un.
paralleled. The not unwelcome infor.
nation is at the same time Communi-
Gated that those now leaving Ireland
to make America their future home,
are "in dress, appearance, and educa-
ton, OF a class much superior to any
that have ever left" that county; that
they belong quite generally TO the mid
ding interest in agriculture and the
mechanic arts, and are very far from
being persons who "leave their coun-
try for their country's good Nearly
ali coming%R destined, it is said, for
the far west-where is assuredly an
ample field for honest industry, and
where intelligent labor cannot fail to
FeaD "A rich reward.

New York Gamblers.

Gold last week in New York had
to suffer. For time it looked doubt
full whether it would turn out in fa-
orOf tweedle dee or tweedle dunn"
The Chicago Tribune makes the
following comment on the gambling
transaction of the "bulls and the
bears:"
The transactions at the Gold Ex-
change i'm New York, on Thursday
and Friday last, were extraordinary,
and were, perhaps, the most eXtrava-
giant exhibition of public and licensed
gambling that has ever taken place.
The purchase and sale of $500, 900, 900
of gold, in few hours, we suppose,
has no precedent in the history Of
reckless speculation. 1t carries the
mind back to the days of the South
Sea Bubble, when stocks in that
swindle quadrupled in value in a
day. In that case, however, the sales
were not on time, nor upon margin,
but were for cash. Buyers paid
the money for what they bought,
and sellers received 1.-The cash before
they parted with their shares. In
New York, on Thursday and Friday,
the aggregate gold actually in the
the market did not exceed, perhaps,
twenty millions. and this was bought
and sold over and over again, until
the transactions amounted to $780,
100000. There were two parties en-
gagged, each intent on breaking the
other. Those attempting the corner,
after most desperate aud terrible
venture, succeeded in running gold
up to 1862, by which they had render
ed their opponents nearly bankrupt,
when the Secretary of the Treasury
was weak enough to place four mil
lions of gold on the market, thereby
breaking the corner. and breaking
many of those engaged in it.

I'cssCn0cn'ss Death.
A post norton examination of the
body of Senator Fessenden was made
OF Thursday to discover the cause OF
his death. 1t was found that just
above where the smaller bowels en-
ter into the larger, the canal had
contracted so rs to be entirely closed,
and the bowels for q foot or more
above obstruction were in n high
state of inflammation. A perfora-
ton was also found above the OBJ
structiOn, and it was the opinion of
the physicians that at the time he
first called the doctor, On Tuesday,
the 3lst day Of August, he had made
this rupture, and that human skill
could avail nothing towards saving
his life; and that when he felt the
severe pain a few hours before his
death, after returning to his bed, he
probably increased this rupture
bringing OH immediate dissolution.
this trouble had been coming on for
some time back, Mr.. Fessenden hav-
ing been a sufferer from chronic diar>
rhGa for at least year past, and
that the few days before the physi-
clans were called the constipation,
which be looked upon as favorable
sign towards restoring Il healthy ac-
ton to the system, was really most
alarming symptom.
