They seldom llvo oyer three years 5 some are never allowed to see daylight. They work the mines like a railroad tonne!, nnder the moun- talna, where some have to spend their life-time, with out ever seeing the ran again. On tho east aide of Kew-ehoo there la an abundance of coni, and a good harbor lor shipping near «t band. The people mostly burn charcoal ; they arc forbid den to cook with the hard coal, on account of the gas; therefore the mines are not much attended to. In the Island Ha-Jay-jo-ehe-raa, all the Emperors clothing Is mado. He sends a vessel there flvo times • year, to bring his rich cargo to Jeddo. Some of Ms junks are ornamented with gold plates on the aide, and all round the bulwarks. ■ . The most remarkable mountain Is Foo-g-san, In the province Soo-roong-an 5 It la ten miles high, and tho top la capped with snow nine or ton months or tho year. In June and July It Is visited by great numbers of people from Jeddo and different parts of the country: the people have a great many songs in praise of It and its traditions. It la regarded sacred, and no females ore allowed to ascend it. The present Emperor Is about twenty-ono years or age; his title la Thln-Kaw, which means Heaven be neath. Hia palace is in the city of Jeddo; it Is sur rounded by a strong wall, and outside the wall Is a deep canal, full of water; his arsenal is close to bis palace, built on a mound, where he retreats in case of war, which ho is always afraid of. He keops a strong life guard around him, and when be rides out, which ia very seldom, he has ten or twelve of his ministers dressed In the same uniform with himself, so no per son may know him, he Is so much afraid of his own subjects. When he passes through tho city the people must kneel down and keep their faces to the ground until he is oat of sight. They cannot oven turn their heads to look at him. They have to do the Bame with all bis ministers of state and publio officers. The prin cipal weapon of war in Japan Is the sword, which is large ana very sharp. A good swordsman is sup posed to be ablo to fond off ten arrows, shot at the same time, and ho is thought to bo able to cut a mus ket ball In two if he,sees the man who is firing at him. Their nse of the musket is as follows: It has no flint, but goes with a match which is attached to tho stock. They hold the musket up to the left ■boulder and support it with the left hand, while they touch It off with tho right. The people are not allowed to keep firearms in their houses. HBBSOHBl 00 VrJOHNSOW. joi«*w;WkS«os. John JO* Howtorn. What Liverpool Wm. Tho commerce by which the world is now sustained bad ito origin within the past few centuries. In this time the paths of travel and tbo depots of merchan dise have all been changed. Oar own commerce, on which Europe, and we doubt not Asia, is destin ed largely to depend, la all modern, and yet has ad vanced so rapidly as to go beyond all preceding ex ample. No example bos in fact been followed. The prospects indulged in as to the future extension and relative importance of our chief ports will appear . still less chimerical if we revert to bat tbo bis- torj of the port of Liverpool, to which our steamers bow ply daily. ' In November 1909, or somewhat Ibsa ... thanthree oratories ago, there-were to Liverpool only ISahouseholders and cottagers sand abqutthe same time a rate was levied on the inhabitants, by which it appears that only about seven streets were Inhabited. In that year there were in that port only twelve small sessels, manned by seventy-six men.— From this time till about the cud of tho next century Liverpool made but a slow and inconsiderable progress, either ia tho number of its inhabitants or extent or Ito trade. Tho ora of its chief increaso ap pears to have been 1099, at which period the inhabi tants obtained an actor Parliament for building a new churob, and for making the town a parish of itself.— From a table containing the number uf inhabitants nt Intervals of ten years, from 1700 to 1770, it appears that the town bad doubled its inhabitants in about twenty-five years, tad had at the close of that period upwards ol six times the number it had at the begin ning of tbo century. We gather from a list of the ■hips belonging to this place, continued down from 1709 to 1772 that in the year 1771 the number of ships was no less lean 323, the whole amount or which was 85,586 tons. The increaso of trade may be observed likewise in tho vast increase of tbo dock duties.— From midsummer, 1751, to midsummer, 1752, these 8 reduced only £1,776, whereas from 1771 to 1772 iey amounted to £4,555. In tho year 1773 ft had but three * spacious ’ docks, and tho sarao history has preserved also tbo fact that it had three‘large’churches. In tbo beginning of that year the state of population was investigated by an actual survey, from which it resulted that tho num ber of families was found to be 8,002, and of inhabit ants 34,407. Tbo number of inhabited homses was 6,928. The subjoined list, with which we leave Liv erpool for the present,exhibits tho comparative num ber of the inhabitants of that city with other large cities in 1773, or eighty years ago: Liverpool,31,408; London,651,580; Birmingham, 30,804; Manchester, 27,246 ; Norwich, 24,500; Leeds, 16,380; Paris, 480,000: Berlin, 134,000. It thus appears that in one instance—that of Birm ingham—the population of a manufacturing city of England exceeded in number that ol its now greatest commercial port. Twenty years previous to tho date above given tbo population of Liverpool was but 20,000, the number or houses 3,700, thus exhibiting a progression of considerably more than one-third in that time Washington Union. Editorial Correspondence or tbs Savannah Georgian. Steamship Florida—New York—Newport— Commencement at Mrown Vnlvsnlty. Pbovidknos, R. I., Bept. 8th, 1863. A desire to witness tho oommencentotyannlyerta- rite of Brown University, brought.me to this city at the beginning of the present week. From Savannah to New York the trip by tbe steamship Florida I found truly dellghtfol. The sin gle drawback to Its pleasure was tbo bead winds, swelling almoot Into a galo, which were encountered on Sunday. But for them the passage of about sixty hours would doubtless have been reduced to fifty-five or fifty-elx. As it was. 1 did not, or at least do not now, regret tbe somewhat tempestuous tossings to which wo .were exposed. It Is wortbTthe sea-sickness ora fow hours to feel as good as one does after It Is over l Besides, foclng a strong wind, and, with might and majesty breasting, buflbtttng, and dashing through tho waves, which It lashed into commotion, gave me a better opportunity of Judging of the quali ties of our noblo ship. Admirably did she bear her self from tho beginning to tho end of the trip. Forming an opinion of the merits of Savannah and New York Steamship Line, from what la seen on board the Florida—of her speed and steadiness—of the uniform and unrolling politeness of her captain and officers—of her well ordored accommodations and fare—no one will be surprised at tho populari ty of these steamers. That these are mere words or compliment, I well know will not bo said by any one of my follow passengers, whatever may bo thought by others. I only echo tbe expressions which were heard on all aides of me during tho trip to which I havo alluded. New York, the hotels particularly, la crowded well nigh to suffocation. Every place of amusement vis ited, whether by day or night, had its throngs. And of all the places for meeting one’s acquaintances, scattered in their residences throughout the thirty- one States of the Union, commend me to Broadway. Friends whom I bad not seen for six. eight, ten, or a dozen years, were constantly showing themselves in tho stream which was sweeping up and down Its side walks. Of tho Crystal Palace, and Julmen’s hydra headed baud nightly performing at Castle Garden, and of Madame Anna Tiiillon and tho Ravels alternating at Niblo’s, or the monster hotels, and Taylor’s magnificent restaurant, the newspapers, city and country, have spoken until there Is no more to bo said. Let them pass. Saturday and Sunday last I was at Newport—a placo, tho appearance of which, pleased me much. 1 speak not of tho hotels—lire at which I should think sufficiently miserable-but of the tasteful private res idences, which havo bo greatly multiplied in the old city within tbo last ten years. Tho population of Newport ia said to be ten thousand—one-tbird less than It was eighty years bIuco. As a summer resort, for those who can find quiet and accommodation iu their own houses, I should think it tho most pleasaut fa tho Union. As regards health and temperature, St. Augustine has probably equal attractiveness. The commencement exercises of Brown University, which come off Tuesday and Wednesday of the pres- sent week, are of much less interest to tho readers of the Georgian, probably, than to myself. I need not, therefore, report them, except very briefly. Tuesday morning tho Alumni were nudressed by Judge Thomas, of Massachusetts, very ably. Tuesday af ternoon a large audience, convened in tho Unitarian Church, listened with a degree of attention rarely witnessed, to an oration delivered before the two societies, by the Rev. Dr. Maooon, of New York. It was & brilliant production—not the less valuable be cause open to criticism, or at least furnishing some points for interesting controversy. The speeches of the graduating class, Wednesday, as for os heard, were not striking—possibly as good, certainly not better, than that occasion usually calls forth. On« of tho best written was that of Mr. Francis M. McAl lister, of Savannah, to whom was assigned the third honor. After conferring the degrees, among which were the usual quota of honorary A. M.’s, D. D.’s and L. L. D.’s, a procession, composed principally of the alnmni of tho University and its officers, marched tindora large pavillion,erected on the collogo grounds, for the purpose of discussing tho annual commence ment dinner. Tho occasion was really ono or very unusual interest. Speeches were mado by Governor Clifford, of Massachusetts, and Judge TnoMAs,o r the same State, both graduates of tho College, Hon. Matiikw Hall McAllister, Hon. I. E. Holmes, of Charleston, tho Mayor or Providence, tho Attorney General of Rhode Island and others. A poem, deliv ered by ono of the company, was filled with humor from beginning to end. Tbe prospects of tbe University were never before so encouraging os now. Last year’s catalogue shows tho names of 210 students. From tho number now entering, it is probable that tbe list will booii run up to three hundred. I cannot do less than wish tbe in stitution abundant prosperity. Providence is ono of tho most rapidly growing cities of the Union. In tan years its population lias □early doubled. It is now estimated at from fifty to sixty thousand. The basis of its prosperity is its manufactures, which are constantly and rapidly in creasing. H.

The Rowdies Agqln. Characteristic attempts were made yesterday by the ribald craw of radicals and fanatics, to interrupt the proceedings of tho temperance Convention. Tne attempt to force women as active participants into . tbe assembly was for tho time abandoned: but it looms to have been thought that Wendell Phillips woold do as well. Being a flaont speaker, of una bashed and unconquerable impudence, and a dtotin- • gutalied performer on tbe Boston boards of fanatical infidelity, it was supposed that ho would bo well adapted to tho special service rcqnlred of him on this • occasion; and in their choice of an instrument for ■ disturbing the proceedings of the Convention, the malignant marplots evinced a good deal of Bagacity. In their choice of means to procure him admission Into the body they desired to disturb, dishonesty was more conspicuous than Judgmont. Mr. Phillips made his appearance in the morning, presented his creden- - tiafs, and claimed to be a delegate from the “ Nine teenth Ward Neal Dow Temperance Alliance.” Not . suspecting any trick, the Convention caused bis ■ name to bo enrolled on the list of delegates. But it was soon after stated by a member that there was no ■nob society in existence; and on Inquiry it proved that the whole thing bad been tramped op daring tbe morning—tbit a sham organization had been con cocted and prepared, for the express pnrposoof foist ing Phillips into tbo Convention, and thns givlnr . him a chance to enact his role la its proceedings.

The New York papers, of the 10th, contain details of tbe news by the Star of the West, from the Paolflo side of the Union, two weeka later than the last pre vious dates. The news of the capture of the .bandit Joaquin is confirmed. Ills head has been taken to San FranoUco, where It, together with the verifica tions that It was the veritable crowning part of the re nowned robber, was to be exhibited—perhaps upon a polo on the plaza—os a trophy of the great prowess of California huntsmen. We trust, says the Herald, to whom we are Indebted for thU summary, which comprehends nil that Is specially Interesting, that we have now recorded tho last act of robbery and mur der committed by this notorious desperado. The code of honor had again been called into requisition at 8an Francisco. Two of its votaries, Dr. Baldwin and Joseph Hithkrinoton, betook themselves to tbe duelling ground, August 1st, where one of th«m wiped an imaginary stain from bis reputation by staining his bands with a fellow-creature’s blood- one found the unenviablo fame be sought and t\io other found his grave. Dr. Baldwin was mortally wounded, and died on tbe 3d. As soon as the fact was announced, IlETiiERiNaTON, who had been ad mitted to bail in tho sum of $5,000, was brought be fore the Recorder, aud ordered to be retained in the custody of tbe Marshal until a hearing or tho case could be had. By this arrival we have received up wards of a million or dollars in gold dust, and learn that another million is on the way to New York in the mail stcamor, which is the best evidence wo can pre sent of the continued productiveness of the mines.— We learn, too, that even the streets of Borne interior cities had been squatted on by tho minors, where they had staked ont claims and gone to work in good earnest washing out the golden sand. The Califor nians are a great people. A few fires, many mur ders, several awful tragedies, and numberless rob beries, contribute their usual share towards making up tho news, and showing the state of society in the Golden Btate, and the great want of more stringent laws.and a better disposition to observe them. Tho news from California contains tho announce ment of the arrival out of twenty vessels from the Atlantio ports during the fortuight preceding the 16th ult. The clippers Flying Cloud and Hornet are amongst them. They both arrived up to the city in 100 days from New York, having left port and en tered port together. Excepting tbo clipper Shooting Star, from New York, which arrived in 121 days, the passages of tho remainder ranged from 131 to 210 days. All complain of oxporioncing very heavy weather off Cape Horn, where some were detained upwards of thirty days, besides losing spars aud re ceiving other damage. . ln«ldatbVftt,Nawybir«* , idem of tfar V«r York Trow, YriUnt onder date of tb#Mi, details f ‘il Ifi tho^ highest degree to 1 * calculated to reflect ifcfal hitherto well ordered society oKthat fash- waterlog place., The authorities of Newport, however, havo it In their power.to so/ to what iktfbt the good character of their place shall iulftr. If they apply the oorreotlve as the case demands, and, os Mm sppearaobesthey aro disposed to do, the scan dal will fall inly where It rightfully belongs. The Writer In the Tones says: I mentioned casqaUy,- yesterday. In my letter to the Timu, that oommon report accused a certain in dividual of having inflicted personal chastisement upon a woman, whom bo was bound by every senti ment of manliness and honor to cherish and proteot. I supposed st tbe time that the rumor was unfound ed, aud spoke or it slightly In consequence; but sub sequent Inquiries havo convinced me that the aeon- sation was correct, and I am now obliged to ohronlcle It as an undisputed fact. It is a subject which I do sire to allude io with tbe greatest delicaoy, for a lady, and (as I have good reason to believe) an ininred one, must necessarily figure in tbe transaction. It appears that a certain Mr. Morgan, who has been sojourning at the Touro-street House, has (under what clronm- stances of provocation, we are not enabled to say, but it matters little, for nothing coold Justify the act,) inflicted personal chastisement upon his amiable and defenceless wife, who is a daughter of Dudley 8elden. Esq., of New York. Her cries, we are told, alarmed tho inmates of the hotel, who forthwith hastened to her rescue. A high-minded and honorable gentle man, Mr. Isaao Hone, whose heart Is ever open to tho plea of unprotected distress, then came forward to her relief, and having obtained a writ of habeas cor pus, proceeded with tho Sheriff to carry out tbe same. The fady is now with her servant and three children at the Bellevue. Tbo coso came up before tbe judges at the Court house in this place yesterday, and will be resumed some time during the ensuing week. In tbe meantime, the Judge has appointed a guardian for the lady in the person of Rev. Mr. Dumont, of this t ilaco—a gentiemau in every respect fitted to do cred- t to the trust imposed upon him. The counsel for the defendant are Henry T. Cranston fc 8on; Messrs. Bhoflield, Perry and Turner being retained for "* plaintiff. I make no comments upon tho act—the facts sneak for themselves. The man who could raise his hand against any woman—least of all his wlfo—I consider outlawed, so far as any gentlemanly consideration is concerned, and I doubt not but the American people will agreo with me in this decision. Bosolaxy and Extensive Robbery.—On Wed nesday night the dry goods store of James Beck A Co., Ho, 255 Broadway, was entered by burglars, and rob- bra of jjlain silks to the value of about $55,000, with — .

From an examination of tbe K eralses.lt appears they effected an entrance into e premiass by first forcing off tbe lock of an Iron **** •J 1 ** leading from Leonard etreet to the rear oftbe store {they then with a crowbar, forcer In. aMu Jm. mm.A A..II. f . .__ open the offlee door, and, finally, an Iron door leading thsncejqthi aUkroom, where the robbery wae effe£ tod. Before carrying off their plunder the borglan forced open severs! desks, la search of money, but National Temperance Convention.—This body, for some time post in session in the city of New York, lias succeeded in purging itself from the counterfeit philanthropists in tbe persons of women-men and meu-womon abolitionists and alvocates of women' rights, who for a time seemed well-nigh to control Its action and give it character. All honor is duo to those who battled against the issues that such men as Garrison and Greeley would have thrust upon its consideration, and thereby nullify tbo good that rational advocacy of temperance principles, discon nected with all issues, is calculated to secure, novel auction scone took placo, daring ono day’s Bo ston. Tho friends of temperance of Wisconsin for warded a premium barrel of fionr to tbo Convention which was put up, the proceeds of the sale to be ex pended for printing tracts to aid in carrying that west ern State for tho 11 Maine Law ” at the next election The flour was placed upon the speaker’s stand, and Ah*eoBdittons uf8ala wora that each bidder should }>ay the amount bid, but that the highest should take tbo flour. The first bid was $10, which was paid ; tho next a higher sum, which was paid ; and so on, until finally $100 was named by Messrs. Bowen & McNamer, when tbo floor was knocked off. Thus handsome sum was raised, for a questionable purpose it is true, yet showing the zeal which annimates those who are in earnest in what they undertake. Among other proceeding it waa determined to sub mit an address to tho manufactures and venders of intoxicating drinks, upon the committee to prepare which we notice the name of Hon. J. B. O’Neall, of South Carolina. Baltimore and Savannah. Tho American Times says of the public meeting held in Baltimore, on tho 8th, relative to steamship communication between that city and Savannah, that “ it marks another progresivo point ic tho com mercial expansion oi Baltimore. Before long Balti more will bavo a speedy, direct and regular commu nication with Charleston and Savannah. Tho addi tional aid necessary to sustain tho Baltimore and Ohio Railroad in securing to us tbe trade of the West will be cheerfully granted by the city. In view of this Western trade, tho Southern trndo wo uow have, and our foreign trade, it becomes absolutely necessa ry to put on steamers between this aud the Southern ports. This opinion has fastened on the public mind boro, and grown into a well-matured commercial conviction. " It may bo proper in thts placo to call the atten tion of our community to the geographical position of Savannah. By consulting the map, it will bo seen that by Railroad connection she reaches out iu every direction ; into Tennessee, into Alabama, Mississip pi, Florida and Kentucky. The trado of tbe Guif is no inconsiderable part of tho trade which must pass through Savannah. The Texas trado, and that of Eastern Mexico, lying along tbo Rio Grande, and ex tending up to Santa Fe,isaU naturally tributary to Savannah. The State of Georgia is an Empire in it self. There Is a continuous railroad line from Bavon- nali to Montgomery. Alabama. Then there is a rail road from Vioksburg, Mississippi, to Jackson, leav ing only the small distanco from Montgomery, Ala., to Jackson, Mississippi, unfinished. When this short gap Is mado there will be a railroad direct from Vicks burg, on the Mississippi river, to Savannah, on the “Atlantic. This gap between Montgomery and Jack- son is under contract. Contemplate for one moment the immense amount of trade aud travel which must necessarily find an outlet at Savannah I “ Although the meeting of last night was to com plete entire tbo subscription to tbs Tennessee, (for Charleston,) yet a private list for Savannah was start ed and promptly responded to. We congratulate our readers on the guarantee we can now glvo, that these steamers will bo built. It is tbe first Vigorous step towards Southern trade. We have satisfied merchants that Baltimore Is a good market—wo are selling largely to the South, and it is wise to afford every fa cility essential to a first class trade.” Whatever is done by the business Interests of Balti more relative to tbe establishment of steamship com munication with Savannah, we hope to toe done speedily, and la a spirit of confidence. If experi ments are attempted, and thoeo too In a half doubtful mood, a failure will bo sure and speedy. Tho South bos a prids In tho matter, as well as an interest, and In attempting to secure the latter It will not do to wound tho former. We ray this in a most friendly spirit, assuring oar Baltimore friends, as we have re peatedly done, that tbe feeling hero Is general in favor of Increased facilities of trado between tho two porta. And when the field baa been surveyed by In telligent, far-weing merchants, what more la wanted but action 7 iHDIHffiiSS Good BAn.ixo.-Tbe schooner* Virginia, Oapt Axwouthy, consigned ton. K.

Daring the passage she encountered strong head winds, bat for which she would h$ve arrived In Relief for Mobile. —Subscriptions lmvo been started in New York and Boston, which havo been liberally responded to, in behalf of the sufferers by yellow fever in Mobile. Over $1,000 were raised in New York on Saturday last, and on tho evening pre vious, at a meeting of somo twenty-fivo gentlemen at the Revere House, Boston, Mayor Beaver presiding, $600 were contributed by those present, and a com mittee chosen to obtain further aid. These efforts are timely, and will doubtless provo highly acccpta- to the noble Can’t-get-nwoy Club of Mobile, whose solf-sacrificing labors in behalf of the sick and desti tute aro worthy of praise and encouragement. Serious Railroad Accidknt at Philadelphia— Man Killeo.-TIio New York train duo on tbe even ing on tho 0th, did not arrive until four o’clock next morning, having been thrown off tho track near Be- verely. The forward Brakesman, named Iredell, was instantly killed, and John Cobson, tho Engineer con siderably bruised. None of tho passengers were in jured. The accident was caused by a piece of rail being placed against the sleepers and braced on oitber side in tho position of a turn oat. Tho locomotivo was thrown off into a low place adjoining the trank and turned up on tbe end. The breakman was thrown from the gig on tho tender and found dead. The passenger cars were displaced from the track and somewhat broken, but no passengers were se riously iujurred. They reached Camden by an extra train. 5 tbe* It affords us great pleasure to bo able to state that tho rumor of the death of Capt. Tattnall, scorns to havt been unfounded. The news of his previous sick ness had prepared tho publio, as well as ourselves, to fear the worst, but taking all the circumstances at tending the report of his death together, our belief is that it was premature. May ho tong live to be a bless ing to his family and his country. Bryan County,—The Democrats of this county have nominated William Butler for Senator, and William Strickland for Representative in the next General Assembly. Mr. Butler is the present Sena tor from the District lately composed of the counties of Bryan and Effingham. Under the existing law each county now elects a Senator. Taxes in New York City.—Tbe Hon.

Walker’s resignation of the Chinese Mission is matter for profound regret in ull circles here, as well on account of its real cause, as for the loss of the services of so able aud distinguished a di plomatist. What that cause is, has been stated iu a half-dozen different ways; but the truth is, his health proves insufficient for the occasion. When Mr. Walk er accepted the Mission, he had just risen from a bed of illness. Ho was still feeble, but had improved >o raplply and unexpectedly, that bis friends were led to hope for his entire restoration to vigorous health.— That hope has been disappointed. Although his mental energies aro clear, strong and active as ever, his physical system is evidently shattered, and lie has finally, since bis return from New York, yielded to the advlco of his family, and resigned the position whose duties ho sought with all the enthusiasm or youth. Had he been able to proceed upon his mis sion some weeks Bince, with tho certaiuty of finding a Government vessel to take him to China from Point do Gallo, he would havo made tbe trial. Change of air and scene, might, perhaps, havo restored him to health: and in any event, his resignation, if fouud absolutely necessary, would have created little more delay than is already experienced. But the poverty of our Navy lefo the Administration helpless in the premises. Some ono will be designated for the post at an early day, and urged to proceed with ull possi ble dispatch. Tho U. S, sloop-of-war Jamestown, Capt. Downing, now on the Brazilian station, will be relieved at an early day, when she will proceed to the Philadelphia Navy Yard, having been in commission nearly three years. It is uot yet known what ship will relieve her; but I should not bo surprised if tho steamer Allegha ny in designed for that service. Commander Wm. F. Lynch and Lieutenants Daniel P. llidgeley, Wm. Taylor Smith, aud Wm. L. Blanton, have beeu order ed to this ship. Col. Samuel Stambaugh, of Penn., ia appointed United States Consul at Talcahuano, Chill 5 otio of the beat Consulates on the Pacific Coast, as that port is the greatest rendezvous of our whalers and slower class of merchantmen, for refreshment and repairs, after doubling tho Horn. Tho Colonel has the repu tation of beinga “ good follow,”and bis appointment will be popular. Col. Forney will commence the publication of a new Democratic journal in New York, to be called tho Press, about tho 1st of October, with abundant capital and backing. The President thoroughly en dorses this enterprise, and tbo Pres 1 will receive all the available public patronage. Col.

Tub Austrian Protest Aoainst America.—The Paris Sicale comments upon this matter in terms not very flattering to Austria, and commends tbe Ameri can Government for the action taken in the matter- showing, as it does, a disposition on tbe part of tbe administration to stretch oat a friendly hand to thoeo persona who suffer in Europe from tbe pretensions and acts of Austrian despotism. From Constantinople the general tone of cones- londence indicates that England is losing from day 0 day her credit, influence and popularity in the East, while France is galuing in the same proportion from the firm attitude she has taken during tbo whole of these troubles. Ireland.—Engineers and valuators aro to be Im mediately spread over tho country, to taku a new valuation or tbe property as a basis for levying taxes, including tbe income tax. The receipts of tho Dublin Exhibition are now cioso up to thu paying point. 8,000 to 9,000 visiters is about tho dally average. Tho Chancellor, Lord Campbell, bad given a din ner to thu tenantry on his newly appointed Irish es tates. Some of the English papers s|-eak of it as “ the advent of a new era in Irish history.” Gen.

Tho Asia’s news, though showing increased de mand for breadstuff’s, and uctivity on the other side, especially for Holland and France, yet the prices had not advanced in a corresponding ratio with tho largo and sudden rise in this innrket after tho receipt of tho Atlantic’s news. Hence, with tho exception of prime Genesee wheat, wanted to fill French orders, tliore was no important advance in that article. Flour was firmer anil higher uftcr tho news, with fair sales of State brands at $G 50 to $6 56, with small lots, a little fancy, at $6 62.

Mr. Bramley-Moore, cx-raayor of Liverpool, who came out a passenger iu the steamship Asiu, appear ed on ’Change yesterday, in company with Mr. Wood, of the firm of Dennistou, Wood A Go., of this city.

Tho friends 6f tho splendid clipper ship Flying Cloud, (which murto heretofore ono of tho shortest trips to San Franciscoon record,) were not willing to admit that sho bad been beat by tho clipper ship Hornet.

Ho reached this city in sufficient season yesterday morning to inspect the establishment of Colonel Colt. At 12 o’clock a col lation was got up for him at tho City Hotel by Borne or the gentlemen or tho city to welcome him. Mayor Hamcraley introduced the Secretary to the company, and welcomed him to Hartford in a neat speech, to which Mr. Davis mado a long and happy reply. The gentleman has a melodious voice, though not a very powerful oue. He spoko of the doctrine of State rights, which he supported, and claimed that the no ble stand which Connecticut took in tho Revolution was but in support of the same principle. He praised our New England scenery, our Now England charac ter, and our New England hospitality. It waa a hnndsomo.easy effort, of a man accustomed to speak ing. and full of Ills subject, with nothing of the “blood and thunder” school in it. Speeches were likewise mado by H. C.

This Is no ill-considered assertion. Figures and (acts bear it out. The sales average a million of bottles a year: the receipts, iu cash, $100,000. This year the business will exceed that amount. The number of orders which daily arrive at the depot and manufactory, 137 Broadway, New York, address ed to Professor Barrv, enclosing cash, and requiring imme diate attention, would scarcely be believed. The wholesale demand Is from 2.000 to 3,000 bottles a day, probably ex ceeding that of nil the other hair preparations eonjolucd.
