Lord Brougham was pleading before the Court of Queen s Bench, and had labored in vain for some hours to convince the judges of the force of his arguments.

In the morning patent leather pumps, with huge, plated buckles, plaid tight - the kn no waistcoat, white shirt, with little frill ■ running cross nay.-, blue cravat, with fringed ends, a turnover collar, with everlasting long points, a short-tailed long watsted coat, arid a little, round straw hat, with a broad, blue ribbon,greet the observant eye.

These festive members of the second class are numerous; they lounge in the balls; smoke, spit, and *wcar on the v in 1 -; they drive fast and furious along the streets and in the retired ways beyond, and on the beach itself; they order, in tones of mild thun der. wine of diverse name and nature and pri< : and effect; they bully the inoffensive waiter, and rail at unprotected women; tlx v affect stocks, and talk knowingly at j . ip th ■ barber-shop, on the piazza, about Enc and Gold, about Ilock I 'and and Gregory, about old Vanderbilt and old Drew, and old this, that, or the other; some of them own places here and converse in tones quite audible and dts tre.-sing to every one about them, telling how they propose improving the drive way by .-itch investment, or how thtfy think of buildiiiir an artificial lake at a cost :of thousands. These people in short coats and big horn buttons are great nuisances in their way, and also in other people’s way; still they are fellow humans, and perhaps will serve to some good end after a!!. But their f<-miiiinj companions, their partners in wealth and vulgarity, and very youngn. -s and absurdity—what can be said of them ? Nothing that would seem severe.

THE LAST KOVAL WEDDING AND SCANDAL. Victoria’s Singular Coiiiiuct. The London correspondent of the Chi cago Jour ll and gives the following particu lars of tb*- recent marriage and sacrifice of one of her daughters: . A KOVAL MARRIAGE. All these matters, however, pale beneath the great event of the week, the marriage ! of I’incess Helena, the third daughter of Queen Victoria, which took place on Thursday last There is something really distressing about the affair, as you will ad : mit when 1 narrate the facts. The match, i from first to last has been distasteful to j the nation, and now that the Queen has persisted in sacrificing her child, if she could read the hearts of her people she would find therein recorded an universal 1 sentence of condemnation. It. was sup posed, some little time since, that the mar riage would not take place, but the Queen was obstinate and persisted in her deter mination. The real truth is, that, aside from other objections to the bridegroom, lie actually lias a wire and four children living in Ger many. It is true that the marriage was called a morganatic one, but it was solemn- j ized, nevertheless, under the authority of the Church. Whether the Princess Helena was aware of this fact or not is doubtful, j but the Queen was, and recklessly tram pled all considerations of morality and jus- i tice, to say nothing of religion, under foot j It is well known that she was remonstrated with on the subject, but to no effect. She J had set her mind upon the marriage, and defended her future son-in-law with the j utmost spirit. The cause of her infatuation has just been revealed. When the statue of the late Prince Consort was inaugurated in Germany last year, the Queen’s attention was attracted by one of the spectators who seemed to be overwhelmed with emotion, and throughout the ceremony his handker chief was constantly employed in wiping from his t'ace what were apparently tears. (Some who were present say, for tears read perspiration.) This sort of conduct was just the thing to touch the Queen’s sensibilities. She inquired at once who the individual was, and learned that it was Prince Christian Schleswig-Holstein. She sent for him, took a fancy to him, and finally threw her daughter into bis arms, since which her infatuation lias been complete. There is scarcely any one who does not believe that this petty (rcriuan i ’riuce, poor even to poverty, his real income being only about a thousand dollars a year, an adventurer, a notorious gambler and sporting man. a man with all the low vices of the German character and none of its virtues, and simply playing a part which he had thoroughly studied be ibrehand. Conscious of the Queen’s weak ness. he purposely placed himself in her way, and by his crocodile tears on the occa sion mentioned, secured an interest in her which he has managed to increase and re tain until he has finally accomplished his purpose. I am sorry to say there is no room to doubt the correctness of these statements. It was the place of the Prince of Wales io give away his sister at the altar. He plumply refused to do so, although he was present at tim ceremony, to avoid future scandal. Failing him. that duty devolved upon his young brother, the Duke of Cam bridge. He not only declined, but was not present at the wedding at all. The bride groom's father, brother, and sister, al ,l. ugh especially invited by tin' Queen, all refused to come to England, and by their presence sanction the outrage then com mitted. Although it is a sad affair, and while much sympathy is felt for the young bride, the auguries for her future are of the darkest character, and the Queen and her mother has sunk to a very low degree in Dm estimati molhi r subj :cts.

Waves. It i.s not a little remarkable that an ' element like water, one of the prime prin- , ciplr- of which i* that it always tends to ' a level, should be so liable to agitation. : ; ; i that when in lure" masses it should in reality so seldom be at rest. But its very . fluidity, which is the cause of its tendency j to a .-.fate of quietude, is also the reason i for it-almost constant agitation. It re quires but a breath of air to disturb its placidity with ripple.-': and the increase of the breeze, especially where there is a large area, rolls it up in waves until the surface of the s i becomes alternate hills and val ley-. One might -appose that the wind would pass smoothly over the face of the , waters without exciting any great com motton, the contrast in the density o f the two elements being so great; but it requires only a few moments for a strong wind to lash the ocean into fury, and to cause its waves to rise, as the surface goes, mountain high. This expression, however, is mere hyperbole. The ' actual height jof waves is far below the ordinary estimate. Easily as the surface of wa ' ter is_ disturbed _by the wind and raised into waves, it appears that there is a certain height beyond which it is not li able to be raised by any ordinary gales, f hi.- height is seldom, if ever, more than ; ten feet, which, with the corresponding depression between the waves would make the elevation above the trough of the sea twenty feet. Most persons who have been at sea in a storm, and who have carefully watched the approach of the mighty swells, which, as they are coming on, threaten to ' overwhelm even the largest vessel, would j be ready to assert that they have seen waves at least fifty or sixty feet in height, hut till above twenty, or at the utmost twenty-five feet, is in the imagination. Os course no accurate measurement of the waves can be made at sea, but an approxi : ination to gauging them has often been • reached, and under the most favorable cir cumstances, with the above result. Where | a wave strikes an opposing object, as upon a bold shore, or against a rock or light house, the water is dashed up to a far greater height; but twenty feet may he set down as the height of the loftiest moun tain wave that is seen at sea, the assertions of young and old voyagers to the contrary notwithstanding. ! The velocity of waves is a far more ca rious and interesting subject of investiga | tion. Os course it is understood by all | who have any acquaintance with the mat ter, that the water itself does not move | forward with the wave, even when it at tains the greatest velocity. Only the form ! of the wave advances, the wave itself seem | ing to have a separate existence from the i water, and holding on its course with tre mendous speed and power, while the par | tides of water, and the entire mass of the I fluid, simply rise and sink, being made the sport of one wave after another as the suc cession comes on. When waves come in from the deep sea and strike upon a shoal, or upon a shelving shore, they then make progress, not by the force of the wind; but only on the principle of the water seeking its own level. The velocity of the waves is in proportion to their magnitude, the largest proceeding at double the rate of the fleetest steamship, or about forty miles an hour. Those who are familiar with the sea have often, when running befort the wind, watched their progress, seeing one j after another, With regular intervals, j sweeping by and leaving the ship far be i hind. I The power of the waves is tremendous, j and tliis force is almost a mystery when j we bear in mind the fact just stated, that it is only the form, and not the substance i that moves. Those who have felt the suc ; cessful blows of these mighty trip-hammers | against the sides or bows of a ship when i the ocean lias been violently agitated, can scarcely believe that the entire mass of water has not been hurled with immense j velocity against tim vessel. And when I these waves come rolling in upon a shallow ; bank their force is greatly increased, so that the bulwarks must be strong indeed that can withstand their shocks. BRITISH FOREIGN POLICY. i Speech of Lord Stanley, the New Secre tary of Foreign Affairs. Lord Stanley, the new Secretary of Foreign Affairs, having been re-elected for i the borough of King’s Lynn, presented : himself before his constituents on the 1 Ith, ; and made a lengthy speech. After allud j ing to the reform question, he made the following important statement in regard to the foreign policy of Great Britain : There is a misunderstanding in the pub | lie mind as to what is the proper policy of non-intervention. It is spoken of as a . purely selfish policy, as if it meant that we | were to sit wrapped up in the contempla tion of our own happiness and our own j privileges, quite indifferent to the rest of | mankind. Now, if that were the view I took of it, it i.s a policy with which I would | not have anything to do. Mere selfishness ’does not pay. [Hear, hear. J We shall find i that out soouer or later. And selfishness does not. alter its character, whether it re lates to a nation or whether it relates to an individual. The substances of non-in terferance in continental disputes lies deep er. tt lies partly in our vast Indian and colonial interests making up the British Empire, and throwing upon us duties and responsibilities with which continental States have nothing to do, and which are in themselves a burden enough for one na tion to discharge. It lies partly in the duty we own to our poorer classes at home, for whom we are trustees, upon whom an increase of debt, and consequently of tax ation, must fall with crushing weight. It is partly in the conviction we enter tain that example is worth more than pre cept ; and that by simply existing as we do a'free self-governed nation, wo are doing more than could be done by a thousand dispatches or any combinations we might put in practice against both the policy of' despotism and the policy of revolution. (Loud cheering.) It lies also in our ex perience and recollection of past mistakes, in the lessons which our own history teaches, how often in former days we have fought for objects which after all we did not secure, or, if we did secure them, were not worth the price we paid'for them. (Hear, hear.) A man may feel deeply in terested in European affairs, and yet may reasonably doubt whether hasty sympa thies and imperfect knowledge are the best qualifications for dealing wisely with such complicated matters. (Hear, hear.) But the result which England expects her ministry to work out is not of easy accom plishment. \\ e object to take action in continental quarrels ; but we object also to see our moral influence lost or greatly lessened. Now, to satisfy these appa rently conflicting claims is the problem we have to solve. That advice, or, if need be, mediation, should not be refused when asked for and likely to succeed, and yet that it should never be offensively ob truded : that neutrality should be main tained without a cynical affectation of indifference; that making peace at home , our first object, we should seek the peace of Europe —these are rules easy to lay down : the difficulty is to apply them to practice. (Hear.) To that end my efforts shall be applied. Less than that I cannot promise ; more than that those who can appreciate the difficulties will sav I ought not to promise. (Hear, hear.) It is the wish of England to live in harmony with all her neighbors. Hear. hear. But there are two powers which by their greatness and position, af fect us more peculiarly than the rest. One of these is France, our nearest neighbor, formerly our rival in arms, now our friend ly competitor for the first place in the civilization of the world. (Hear, hear.) When we speak of France with relation to public affairs we necessarily speak of the government of France, and whatever judgment any individual maybe disposed to pass on the internal or general policy of "V- Emperor of the French, is a question with vviuep we have nothing to do. and 5“ : l hisPuy alone can decide in a satis uetory manner, no man can reasonably , tO .

No other power, not even France, I is so closely bound to us bv ties of public j interest. (Hear, hear.) It would be idle to deny, after th*-' late war. that there was some portion, perhaps there is still a jxir ! tion of the American people that bears no j good will to this country. But I believe that portion to be utterly inconsiderable in point of numbers, inconsiderable in point of power. (Hear, hear.) No doubt during the war there may have been some un pleasant feeling, and in our hasty and posi tive way ofjudging our neighbor's affairs, lam not surprised at that ill feeliim (Hear, hear.) But there has been time for that feeling to have sub-ided. I be live it has subsided ; and we look to the last action of the United States Executive in the Fenian attack on Canada, I think we must acknowledge that he has acted, I will not say-a friendly part towards Eng land. but that he has acted on a law-abid ing and law-respecting principle.

SOUTH AMERICA. Business in Buenos Ayres—General Des pondency—Full Details of the Battle of the 2 Ith of May. A correspondent of the New York Timm w riting from Buenos Ayres, says ; Business is very dull here—scarcely any thing doing, save what pertains to a supply of the army. A feeling of despondency prevails. We have the fullest details from the seat of war up to June 1. At the last mail all tho news from May 20 was apocryphal. I proceed to give it seriatim : On the 21st and 22d there was heavy ■skirmishing. The armies were less than two miles apart, and tho Allies nearest the river Parana were distant from Fort Itapiri about eight miles. They lay be tween two creeks, one of which served, with its marshy border, for a front fortifi cation for the Paraguayans. On the 24th, orders were issued to the Allies to prepare arms and food for two days’ absence from camp, and the cooking was interrupted at 11 A. ”31. by a general attack of the whole force of the enemy, numbering over 200,000 men, in three di visions, coming in a line long and deep 1 across the line of the Allies’ camp. A sud den call to arms rallied most of the troops in good order, and Gen. Mitre determined to penetrate their centre, which he did.— The two wings swung round at once and attacked his flanks, and the peril of the day was great. Gen. Osono (Brazilian) was in command of the right wing, and he infused his own heroic spirit into his troops. Gen. Flores (Oriental) also distinguished himself lead ing the centre column. The Argentines, under Gen. Paunero, in the left column, did equally well. The Paraguayans carried themselveswith the utmost bravery. The cavalry came up at a deliberate trot, and cut their way through the infantry right along up to the cannon’s mouth, and eutdown the artillery men at their guns. They then went and sacked the allied camp, and in open day and during a raging battle carried off the plunder. The battle lastedtill dark, when both parties retired to the fortifications, leaving a heavy loss upon the field. The Paraguyans left 4,200 killed and wounded, 370 prisoners, 4 guns, and large numbers of swords, muskets, carbines, sabres, axes, &c. The Allies left 3,347 killed and wounded, of whom there were in all more than 200 officers. The sick and wounded from tho overcharged hospitals above are coming down the river to Buenos Ayres and to Montevideo, by almost daily steamers. These ctirry’ back the ever coming Brazilian recruits to the seat of war. The chills are very destructive to the soldiers; small-pox also prevails in the camp, and the losses by the ills of various kinds equal those of battle. The Cholera in New York. The following letter, from a reliable party j in New York, conveys intelligence of es pecial interest to merchants and others j wishing to visit that city, and should, we think, relieve the apprehension which ex ists in reference to the cholera there : New York, August 4,1866.

Editors : —Having received a number of communications from our friends South, asking information in regard to the j prevalence of cholera in the city; stating | also that many persons are deterred from | visiting New York in consequence, you | will oblige us very much, and do those de i sirous of doing so a'service, by stating ; through your journal that, in our opinion, | there has not been a single case of genuine | Asiatic cholera in or about the city. Quite j a number of sporadic eases, called cholera, | have occurred, but these, in proportion to j population, are very few, and confined al i most exclusively 7 to the poorer classes in the ! low, crowded localities, where cleanliness is i unknown. In our judgment, no more risk : is taken in coming to New York now, than in former years at the same period. In confirmation of this statement we refer you to the Journal of Commerce of this date, which we think gives the facts as they ex ist. Your obdt. servts.. M., T. & Cos. Washington Gossip. Washington correspondents say that Cabinet matters begin to assume anew phase, according to outside report, and the reformation promised threatens not to be so complete as was at first supposed. The immediate friends of 3lr. Stansbery assert that that gentleman predicated his accep tance of the Attorney Generalship upon the retention of Mr. Stanton in the Cabi net, in which he was backed by very strong and influential Western influences. Stanton on being applid to, promised, if retained, to come out squarely and unequivocally in support of the President’s policy. His instructions to Gen. _ Thomas, _ refusing military interference in the affairs of the Tennessee Legislature are cited as an evi dence of this arrangement. It is also posi tively promised that a letter will shortly appear from Mr. Stanton in reply to Sena tor Doolittle’s circular endorsing the Philadelphia Convention and all the gen eral features of 3lr. Stanton’s administra tion. Stanton’s enemies assert that this arrangement has been brought about in response to the piteous appeals of the Secretary of War to be retained. They allege that he is positively afraid to leave the office as yet. Handsomely Turned. —A correspond ent of the Macon Telegraph , writing of some of the incidents of a’ late session of the County Court of Putnam, reports the following good repartee by J. A. Turner, late of the Countryman : After the business of the Court was over, just before the adjournment, and while the bench and bar were indulging in pleasantries, Dr. H., a wag, applied for license to plead and practice law in the County Court. In order to humor the joke, the Court appointed J. A. Turner to examine the candidate for license. Quoth Turner to applicant, with great dignity and gravity: is the first requisite for making a good lawyer? “To be a d—d rascal,” was H.'s ready response, followed by great laughter, the spectators evidently- thinking Turner was done for. But Turner arose with dignity, and, ad dressing the Court, said : “May it please the Court, I deem it unnecessary to pro long this examination. Dr. 11. has said that the first requisite to make a good law yer is to be a d—d rascal. I pronounce the Doctor fully qualified, and move that he be enrolled as an attorney of this Court.” John Mitch el and the Fenians. — Some time ago, during the delivery of a speeeh by Head Centre Stephens, in Phila delphia, that worthy referred to the Pari sian Head Centre of the order. John Mitchel. Someone in the crowd wanted to know what had become of the fifty thousand dollars sent to Mitchel. Ste phens replied. "Don’t mention his name,” that he (Mitchel) “desired to be forgot ten. M hereupon Mitchel writes from his domicil in Paris in effect—“l do not desire to be forgotten. But. instead of my re ceiving fifty thousand dollars. I received over seventy-five thousand dollars in gold —all remitted by the Fenian Brotherhood iu New York. Mitchel declares that the whole of this sum was safely transmitted to Stephens while he was in Ireland or handed to him personally in Paris, and for the whole of which he (Mitchel) holds re ceipts. Now. let this question be repeated, only with a change of name. M hat has Mr. Stephens donewith the $75,000. —Macon Telegraph. The Greensboro (Ala.) Beacon, of the 2>th ult., says, we hear of many large fields of corn and cotton, on the best lands in the State, that will make little or noth ing. A gentleman living in this immediate neighborhood, and who is by the way. one of the best planters in this section, in- ) formed us a few days ago that he had just returned from a trip to the canebrake, j where he saw fields of cotton, on the best of land, that will not make 100 pounds of seed cotton to the acre.

The Roberts men declare that Stephens ■ has no legal right to rule the Brotherhood in America. Crop Intelligence. Georgia. The Rome Ga., Courier says : Cherokee Georgia.—’ The great drouth j that came on several weeks since in Middle | and Lower Georgia, is now .being fearfully realized in this section of the State. There I have been a few partial rains in Cherokee j Georgia, but in probably at least, one-half | of the territory of this section, the corn has i suffered already very much, and unless copious rain comes in a few days the crop j will be almost a com [fiete failure. The | co.ton has not suffered so much, i North Eastern - Georgia. —3lajorßell, of Banks county, says that the wheat crop of that county will not average more than a i half crop, and the late dry weather has i done much damage to the corn crop. He ! believes there will not be more than a half ! crop of com made in that county. .Southern - Georgia. — The Quitman | Banner says; Since our last, this section has been visited by frequent heavy rains and the ground is once more thoroughly water j ed. This rain comes too late for the corn ; crops, which are probably- the poorest ever i produced in Southern Georgia. 3\ e hear serious complaint of the rust, and the shed -1 ding of fruit in cotton ; but. judging from ; the most reliable accounts we get, there will be an average yield. Florida. The Ocala Banner says : On a recent trip through Middle Florida, we made many enquiries in regard to the prospects of the crops, and were much gratiaed to learn the cotton crops are pretty- generally promising. though in some instances we heard of entire failures. W e saw very 7 j little corn, it having been seriously dam ; aged by the drought. In fact, from what ‘ we saw, we fear t here will be much suffer- j ; ing in many localities for the want of bread. Mississippi* A Memphis special states that the pros pects of the cotton crop about Corinth, | Miss., are very discouraging, i The Mississippian says : We have embraced every opportunity i offered to ascertain from planters through i out the State the condition of the corn and i cotton crops. Front information received i by ub from various reliable sources, and ; from different parts of the State, we write | it down as a settled thing that not more ■ than one-fourth of a crop will he made, if I that. i The Louisville Star says; We have just returned from a trip up the river, and can assure our readers of this part of the State, and the “world generally,” that all the reports about tho destruction of the crops by the late hail storms are unfounded. The storms in jured the crops very little. On the uplands we never saw better crops than arc at present in South Mississippi. In the Pearl River Valley the recent wet weather injured the cotton slightly, but not to that { extent at first supposed. We are fully persuaded that South Mississippi will make an abundance of corn and cotton. The Aberdeen Examiner says: Our country friends speak cheerfully of the cotton prospects, though generally despondent as regards corn. We still think, however, that corn enough will be ! made io the country for the home supply —enough for bread, seed, and to feed the j stock, and we should not grumble if we 1 can do this. Virginia. It is stated that the crops in Southwest ; ern Virginia arc of the most promising i character. The oat and- hay crops, now ; harvested, are splendid, and the corn ! promises to yield a most bountiful harvest. I There will, it is believed, be almost enough : produced there to feed the entire State. : The wheat turned out better than was ex pected, and realized about half a crop. Texas. Under date of Galveston, Texas, June i 18, Inspector-General Gregory says; Owing to the heavy rains of April and May, and the inundation of the bottom lands, a reduction must be made of at least twenty 7 per cent, of the estimated yield of cotton, but in the western portion of the State where the grazing interests have suffered in past years from drouth, the stock will be materially improved. The cotton crop is large and nearly ripened, and in prime order. The wheat crop, which has been harvested, is abundant, and of the best quality. There is enough on hand to feed the entire population for i two years. The Middle States. 11l Western New York the growth of ; wheat is a splendid one, the yield of some fields being estimated at forty bushels to tho acre; and from the central portions of the State we have equally favorable ac counts. The farmers are not croaking, as it is certain they would be if there was any prospect of a short crop. Spring crops started a little backward, but the hot* weather of the last month has strengthened and hastened forward the grain amazingly. Corn is well advanced and very healthy in appearance, while the fruit crop will make good whatever deficiencies there may be iu New England. Ohio. A letter from Newark to the Cleveland ■ Leader says: In the Muskingum valley corn is somewhat backward, but promises ! a splendid yield ; it is in some places out jin the tassel. I saw there as fine fields of | wheat as could be wished for. As I beheld J waving grain and beautiful fields of corn ! stretching for miles, I thought that famine, with her dusty wings, would never darken this, one of the loveliest valleys in the State. The Troy 7 Union say's: A large portion of the wheat in this immediate neighbor hood has been cut this week. Many fields yield a full crop—some of them consider ably above the average, while the grain, we are told, will be much heavier, and con sequently better than last year. Intelli ; gent farmers express the opinion that the i wheat crop of Miami county this year will I exceed that of last year. | The grain crops of Colorado have been I harvested. The wheat crop is good, and | other crops are fair. Indiana. The Jay and Adams Republican says : I Wheat is being rapidly harvested. Early | wheat in good situations is tolerably good; j late is universally poor when much exposed |to water during the winter. Corn looks i very well. Some fields on the drained bot | toms are magnificent. We have seen corn j on the famous 3liami bottoms, but it never j surpassed some now growing on the Sal i monie. Oats, flax and potatoes all pro ; mise well. I The New Albany Commercial says; Our state exchanges give glowing accounts of the excellent wheat harvest, and the famine that was predicted by speculators a feu 7 weeks since need not be feared. 'When the yield is thin the grain is large, which will _ make up the deficiency by superior quality. The wheat harvest of Indiana this yrnar may be set down as above the average. Illinois. W r heat, all there is, looks very well for a i crop of fourteen bushels per acre. Barley 7 —more than an average amount put in } this year and looks very flattering, and farmers think it will come up to twenty : five bushels or more per acre. Rye very fair ; will yield about twenty bushels per acre. Oats promise well. Corn will yield more than an average crop. Wild and tame hay in abundance. Michigan. The Detroit Free Press says : The only 7 j crops which seem to be at ail behind those j of previous years are those of wheat and clover. In some parts of the State, par ticularly through the first and second tier i of counties, the want of a snow covering and the severe weather seriously affected both those crops, but the approach of har vest time demonstrates that the injury was less extensive than was at first feared. Where little was expected on the opening of spring we are now assured that full half a crop will be realized. Os corn, oa ts and potatoes it may be safe to say the promise is better by a third than ever before. All the hardier fruits are in abundance. Wisconsin. Winter wheat all cut; not much in this county-. Barley all cut; average yield.— Spring wheat will be a heavy crop and good : quality. Oats better than an average crop. . Corn looks fine, and prospects very- flatter ing for all grain. All reports concur in the statement that a splendid crop of grain will be gathered here. The wheat crop will be large and ot fine quality-. Barley and oat crops will also be large and of fine quality. Corn, though backward, promises well. lowa. The wheat and oat harvest is about half completed. It has been somewhat re tarded by wet weather, though not to injure crops. Farmers say the average crop will exceed that of any season for several years before. Barley- is good. Owing to seed rotting in the ground in the spring, nearly all the corn in the country was replanted, consequently will be late, but a large crop is anticipated if not injured by frost. Missouri. The prospects for a good c-rop of all sorts of grain are very encouraging. M in ter wheat is harvested, and will average twenty-five bushels per acre. Oats, ry;e. barley, corn and potatoes look very promis ing:. The wheat crop this year is unusually good. It will average twenty-five bushels per acre. All other crops look well.

Cape Fear, Cape Florida, Mobile Bay, Corpus Christi Bay, thence over to Cape San Lucas, thence up the golden st rands of the Pacific coast to Vic ! toria, and then across the country to the pine points of Maine. Quite a little trip! i And all this is our country. The pine for ests of Maine, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Minnesota and Texas—-the rocky hilL of New England—the coal beds of the Key ! stone State —the rich plantations of the South —the broad prairies of the West — ! the golden gulches of California the quartz mountains of Nevada, Montana, Idaho, &e. —the Eastern, Western, North ! era and Southern States, all belong to the Union—to you, the sovereigns. * i And do you realize, traitors, that all i tins country is controlled by the devil of | New England radicalism, New England aristocracy, New England protection, New | England Puritanism, New England nar : row-mindedness, and New England bon j docraey ? Let us see. Why, up there is a ' fittle point of land. It is where the witch burning, psalm-singing Puritans lauded, ! and whipped the people for kissing their | wives on the Sabbath, and where men are ' taught to mind the business of other peo ple, and to skin every thing from eels to j gun-flints.

And the popu lation is nearly double. In view of the fact that since the census was taken from which we glean the above figures, the New England States have fallen off twelve per cent., and the six Western ones have increased over thirty per cent., it is safe to say we more than double them in population, as we befit them five times and over in extent. And all this tract of country, an empire of itself, has but the same representation in the Senate with forty-five representatives j in the House Now let us sit down on this I log—by the forge,—on your shoe, tailor or | carpenter’s bench ; let us lean on this hoe handle, rest on this pick ax ; on this plow beam, or wherever we are, and see what a difference there is between the West and | the East, and see if we owe the East our j very blood, as it were. When the late rebellion began, the West I went into the war, fighting her real friends to aid her real enemies. It was New England intolerance, bigotryj abolition and envy which brought the rebellion on us. We were living in peace—prosperous and happy. The South was driven to the wall —the South rebelled—Western men sub dued the rebellion —Western men who loved the Union New England hated, fought their best friends and proved the supremacy of our flag. The war is over. The armies are dis banded, and still New England intoler ance, vengeance and spite war upon sub dued people, and upon the Constitution she hates. New England nabobs hold United States bonds, by a New England controlled Con gress exempt from taxation. New Engl nd dares not have the South hack in the Union, for the votes of that section will justly be against her narrow minded protective interests. New England Abolitionists have set the negro free, and make you and I not only support the freedmen, hut the bond holder who sits and receives his interest, the whole exempt from taxation. New England wants her manufacturing interest protected. She wants the burden of taxation to fall upon the consumers of her industry, and to rise to power and wealth on the labor of the poorer classes, who in the thirty other States of the Union purchase of her. The East is built up. It is finished. Her schools, roads, churches, jails, pris ons, poor-houses, asylums, &c., are erected. Much of the work is to be done yet in the \V est. Where we in the West are at work, Now England bond-holders are riding in | their easy carriages, sitting in the shade, reveling in wine dinners, sporting in creek j and jungle, their wealth secured and in the United States bonds, by a New England controlled Congress exempted from taxa tion. We have a countiy yet to improve. We have roads, school-houses, asylums, churches, towns and cities yet to build. We have the negro, who once supported himself, to support in idleness; and with him the thieves and swindlers who are the knobs to the negro bureau. ,Ve have the expenses of Government to pay. We have the interest of the pub lic debt to pay. We have millions of dol lars a year to pay to the rich, lazy bond holders who are by the Government pro j tected in their laziness, while we are by ! the same Government ground still deeper 1 into the earth on account of our poverty. Why this favoritism ? Is this the re ward given the- West for forsaking her business; for lighting her best friends ; for ! spilling rivers of blood ? We did not restore the Union, for New England says the Union is not restored. We did not benefit the negro, for he is worse off to-day under the drippings of this New England mercy than under the care of his former master. We did not benefit ourselves by the war. We did not soften the heart of the South. j Butwedid this, Western men. We made fools of ourselves; we fought our best ; fri ends to help our worst enemies. I We piled up mountains of debt, astride of which sit thousands of New England bond holders, and we have got to bend out back to the lead, while they crack the whip—the poor white trash of the tv est. . May God in his goodness hasten the day when the people will open their eyes and look at the greatness of the misery in store ; ' for us as a nation, and give us men bold ' enough to lead the way to peace aud pros perity.

THE KING OF PRUSSIA AS A CORRES PONDENT. His Account aud Description of the Bat. tie of Koniggratz. The following letter from the King of Prussia to the Queen was communicated to a private circle in Berlin, July 18. It contains an interesting account of the great battle of the 3d of July, at Koniggratz. Horzitz, 1 uly 4. 1866.—The battle be gan just at eight o’clock, with the artillery fire of the 3d Corps, as I arrived at Sado wa. and took up my position upon a hill; this corps was on my ri>:ht. The Horn | Division (the Bth) crossed the Bristriz at I Sadowa and attacked the wooded heights I in front, but gained little ground owing to ! the obstinacy of the defense. The 7th Di i vision (Franserky) extended itself upon the | left with a similar undecided result. Her | warth, advancing from Nechanitz, came | after an hour and a half into the fight, I which was constantly maintained by us for ' five hours, and consisted mainly in an ar ; tillery contest, intermixed with infantry j attacks upon the wooded mountains. We | awaited the arrival of the 2d Army with j longing, for in this long artillery duel our I batteries several times expended their re | serve amunition. The infantry contest vacillated backward and forward. At last wo discovered the first signs of the approach of the Guards, but were un able to see the attack which took place on the other side of a hill, and we could only guess at it from the enemy’s flank position. Notwithstanding this, however, and in spite of Herwarth’s gradual but very low advance, the enemy still stood firm in the center. The 9th Brigade (Scliimmelmann) the body guard and the 48tli Regiment were now pushed forward to support the attack upon the center. I rode through the regiments, which re ceived me with loud cheers, while the bands played “Heil Dir” (the Prussian national hymn) in marching —a thrilling moment. Suddenly the artillery fire in the center slackened, and cavalry was asked for—a proof that the enemy began to waver. I now quitted my post, as victory began to declare itself through the flank attack of the 2d Army, and rode forward with the cavalry. Here I first came upon the 2d Guards Division and the Fusilier Guards in full advance, tambour battant, with j twelve just captured guns in the midst. The enthusiasm that burst forth when these troops saw me is indescribable. The ' officers rushed to kiss my hands, which 1 was this time obliged to allow, and so it ! went on, under fire certainly, but ever for ward, and from one troop to another, eve rywhere greeted by never ending hurrahs. These are moments one must have lived to through to understand, to comprehend. In this way I met the troops of the Ist, 6th and sth Army Corps ; also an infantry regiment; only the Bth Jager Battallion of the Btli Corps, and the 17th Regiment of the Bth ; the others were too far advanced in pursuit of the enemy. Our cavalry now hurst forward, and a murderous cavalry engagement*took place right before my eyes. The enemy was completely over thrown, and the scene, which I rode over directly afterward, presented a horrid spectacle, strewn with cut down Austrians, dead and alive. Thus the infantry again advanded to the valley bordering on the Elbe, when from the other bank ensued very heavy grenade fire, under which I came, but was withdrawn by Bismarck’s serious remonstrances. You may fancy how great w T as my ex citement, and of the most various kind— joy and sorrow. At eight o,clock I at ! last mot Fritz with liis staff. What a moment, after all we had gone through, and on the evening of such a day ! I gave him the order Pour le Merite with my own hands. The tears poured down liis cheeks, for ho had not received my tele gram granting the distinction —therefore is a complete surprise. Castles. BY THOMAS BAILY ALDRICH. There is a picture in my brain, That only fades to come again,— The sunlight, through a veil or rain To iceward gliding: A narrow stretch of brown sea-sand, A lighthouse half a league from land, And two young lovers, hand in hand, A castle building. Upon the budded apple trees, The robins sing by twos and threes, And ever at the faintest breeze Down drops a blossom; And ever would that lover he The wind that robs the burgeon’d tree, And lift the soft trees daintily On Beauty’s bosom. Ah! greybeard, what a happy thing It was, when life was in its spring, To peep through love’s betrothal ring At Fields Elysian. To move and breathe in magic, air, To think thatall that seems is fair, Ah, ripe young mouth and golden hair, Thou pretty vision! Well, well, I think not on these two But the old wound breaks out anew, And the old dream, as if ’twere true, In my heart nestles; Then tears came welling to my eyes, For yonder, all in saintly guise, As’t twere, a sweet dead woman lies Upon the trestle.

Numerous remedies were recommended • ! by friends, and some of them tested, hut without relief. Your lloofiaiid'.- German Bitters were recommended bv persons vho had tried them, and whose favorable mention of these Hitters ! induced me to try them. I must confess that I had an aversion to Patent Medicines from the “thousand and one” quack Hitters whose only aim seems to be to palm off sweetened and drugged liquor upon the community in a sly way, and the ten dency of which, I fear, is to make many a confirm—*, drunkard. Upon learning that yours was really a medicinal preparation, I took it with liappy effect. Its action, not only upon the stomach, but upon the nervous system, was prompt and grati fying. I feel that I have th rived great and permanent benefit ffrom the use of a few bottles. Very respectfully yours, VT. D. SeiofbibT'. No. 254 Shackam&xon street. A F)ora the Rev. E.
