Dr. Marsh j came over am a member of tho Kvangeli- ! eal Alliance, which mot in New York j some time since. Ho has spent about three mouths in this country, visitingtho Fast, North and West, mixing freely with their people and studying tlieir resources and industries. He desired to carry home with him an intelligent opinion, .one which will probably have its influence in future upon tho destinies of many Eng lishmen, and he rightly conceived that he could not do this if ho returned without having visited tho South. nc lias now been in tho South for - orae weeks, and has talked with very many people, and examined her resources and products, and is rapidly forming some very intelligent opinions in regard to their development, no already knows more about tho resources than some men who have been broil here.
