\u201c No; be said they were very rave, and always accompatied by discomfort, and:even distress of mind.However, if you will not think I do nothing but invent wonderful tories,\u2019 continued Mr.Davis, ¢I certainly could give you a remarkable instance\u2014not within my own knowledge but told tome by his clerk, as composed and unimaginative a man as a quiet elder! ; Bcoteh- man can well be, and who was himself prosent during all the circumstances.\u2019 ¢O pray, tell us,\u2019 said every voiop at once, for the girls were eagerly listening to she conversation.( : ¢ Well,\u2019 said he, \u2018 I need not troublg you with all the particulars which led to Mac's belng con- \u2018sulted by a poor widow lady, whose wholéincome depended on the discovery of a deed excouted in the lifetime of her deceased husband, and which had been stolen from the place where it had been deposited.Sach was her story.The heir-at- law, her husband's nephew, denied that such a deed had ever existed.The widow named two witnesses whose siguatures had been put to it inher presence.One of them was dead; the other, au old family servant, admitted that he had signed some written paper, but he knew nothing more about it, and believed that it had been a power of attorney.Mac mistrusted the nephew from the first.He was arich man, aud determined to have what he called his rights, although his success would reduce his uncie\u2019s widow to beggary.lis cunuing was well met by Mac, who, having ascertained that he had tuken the surviving witness into his own service, insisted upon secing the man.Many cxouscs were made: he was absent\u2014he was ill; but the int was not yielded; and at length, upon fac's expressing his.determination to sce the doctor who attended him, it was arranged that he should visit the sick \u2018man in his bed-chamber at a specified hour on the following day.Up to that time, it docs not appear that his views extended beyond a hope that by strictly and care fully questioning the man, some light might be thrown on the mysterious disappearance of the deed.The clerk who told me the story accom: pavied Mr.M\u2018Ilvar to the ncphew\u2019s house in London.He says that he conversed with him in his usual mauncr as they walked along together; but he afterwards remembered that, when within the house, he stared about somewhat strangely, aud changed colour.Me wus preceded up the stairs by a servant, closely followed by the clerk, who distinctly recollected that he staggered wore than once, and seemed to cling to the balusters.When they reached the bed room door, he caught hold of the clerk\u2019s arm and visibly trembled.\u2018But, sir) continued he, 1.0 t drvadfally nt the surgoon\u2019s continued orders \u201cas we pussed the door, Dr.M'Ilvar let go my that he should be kept prefcetly quiot, and at his old nurs.\u2019s stubborn adherence to them, When;

\u2018and his family, it s said, are always clever and odd, ns he is.There is scarecly a bonnet among the M¢llvars, b-1 cve, that hasnot a bee of some sort or other nit.\u2018Many of his ancestors were celebrated ccondiight seers.His futher and mother were rat-coysing, and he himself can remember some lircumiatances connected with his father\u2019s death, hich, té say the lcast of them, are very curious.e wat then about six years old, and I doubt hot a quick and observant boy.His father's eturn home wus hourly expected after a long bscnce in England.Tt was, he says, a still ummer evening ; there was a long and winding hpprouch through the grounds to their house, nd hg and his elder brothers and sisters were nxigly listening for the distant sound of \u2018heels, that they might be ready to rush to the oor, when suddenly his mother stood up, and ooking, Ficantly around, said : * It is a stranger ho is coming!\u2019 At that moment, they began o hear the sounds they were watching for; but heir attention was soon painfully drawn to their other, who sank upon the ground, shrouding r head in a shawl, aud, as the carrisge passed ho neayest gate, sho looked up with a ghastly Jounteyance and said: \u2018 Your father is dying à tin Inglish bed\u2014strangers are watching over m! 'Fic is gnne! he is dead!\u201d Mac declares ut this was all exnetly true.His father had Bon taken \u2018suddenly and dangerously ill on his meward journey; the approaching carriage ought a messenger with these sad tidings, and was afterwards ascertnined that he had ex- 4 before they reached his family.\u2019 ¢ And, do you believe this?\u2019 said I.+\u2018 What can I say?\u2019 answered he.¢ Here isa t vouched for Ty an cye and car witnoss, ito old enough to remember it, sud quite in- able of inventing or even embellishing tho umstancos.I muat yield at least a sort of cf to-thestory, nud can only be thankful that plisl mbthers aro not given to frighten their dren out of their wits by such vagaries.\u2019 r friend docs mot inherit this strange pet\" askod Captain Sinclair, 4 Why\u2014#0,) replied Mr.Davis with some tatiém.* I never heard that ho could boast § kuowledgo of the future;

and his master, who had n hidden by the curtnins, rose hastily, and faced us on the opposite side of the bed.*¢ Ask our questions, sir,\u2019 said he, \u2018 and the man will y q , answer.He admits that he signed\u2019 Mr.M\u201cTivar took no beed of him.¢ Sit up,\u2019 said he, in the same unearthly voice; \u2018sit up, and give me the deed ; it is under your pillow\u2014it is under our heud ;\u2019 and he plunged his hand within the ed-clothes, und drew forth a parchment from beneath tho bolster.The pretended sick man sat up shaking and helpless, and did nothing to prevent him.The master made a snutch at it over the bed, saying something very violently that I forget; but Mr.M\u2018Ilvar thrust the paper into his bosom, saying: \u2018 If I do not hear from you, you will hear from me; and he turned round, and went straight out of the room, and down stairs, and out of the house, and I after him, as it were in a dream.He never spoke to me a word about it, but sure enough there was the very deed; and the poor lady got her own.\u201c And what followed?Were the servant and his master punished ?\u201d +I heard little of the denouement.The widow wished the matter to be kept secret.1t was believed that the nephew was as much surprised as any one at the discovery of the deed, which he fully belicved had been destroyed by the man, who had contrived to gain possession of it during his late master\u2019s illness.* Well,\" said I, after à pause, \u2018 tho story docs not satisfy me; thero are several points in it that I should like to have explained.\u201d | \u201cBo should 1,' answered Mr.Davis.\u2018I have made one or two trials, by alluding to the matter to Mac himself, but be cut me very short.He said it was certainly a remarkable case, but important papers supposed to bo lost had not un- frequently boen discovered by some eurious circumstanco or coincidence; and he had such a troubled look in his face, that I did not like to press the subject.\u2019 \u2018My opinion is\u2019 said I stoutly, \u2018that Mr.M\u2018Ilvar bad gained some private nowledge of the facts, which he thought to startle the man into confessing ; and that much of the mystification arose from the Scotch clerk\u2019s dreams of second-sight, and she hereditary gifts connected with it attributed to the M'Livar family.\" Here both my pupils broke out into cxclama- tions at my attempt to deprive the story of its mysterious charm, and the conversation soon turned into smother ohaunel.After we left the gentlemen, the girls were full of what they had hsard of this Mac of mystery.I had only seen him carried through the hall amid pillows and blankets, andl could not therefore satisfy their curiosity as to his personal appearance, Janet, who had a romantic tendency, felt confident that he was tall, thin, pale, and interesting, with black hair, a Roman noec, and wild, iog, dark eyes.Kilen fully agreed io: the brightoos *.¢ Never was there a olzirer or a sounder bead | hiviog | - ~~ pre and wildness of the eyes, but she assorted that \u2018they vught to be blue, the nose Grecian, snd the hair auburn, wavy, thick, sod Sowing.Next day, the hero himself à red in the dvawiug- room before dinner ; a little fair man, with a very commonplase sors of nose, small, light, bus very quick and intelligent eyes, and hair woak, scant, and decidedly sandy.He had, however, à most agreeable swile and manuer of spéakisg, and iu a few minutes we were all listening wit great amusement to.his socount, cf their accident, protested, it.wasto bo attributed.He minvicked tho country people who came to their assistance, and -deacribed bis own: heroism, active and passive, with #0 much cleyerness and real drollery, that we coald do pathing but listen and laugh.During dignes, he was the life of-the party, clever, full of anecdoté, talking much, yet never obtrusively, so that he piéased all his companions ; and he girls went to bed tisat night fully persuaded that the world did not contain any other mortal half so delightfu).This ploasant intercourse continued for several days; wc got morc and more intimate \u2018and attracted by the guests to whom chance had introduced us: consequeutly, when they \u2018began to talk of continuing their travels, every voice was loud in opposition ; and one day after dinner Captain Sinclair entreated therh not to utter another word of the kind till Mr.M:Ilyar had quite recovered the use of bis arm.i ¢ Av all events, before we go,\u201d said Mr.Davis, \u2018I want very much to sce the whole of this most extraordinary jumble of buildings culled Grey- friars.You must know I have a spice both of the archtiect and the sutiquary in me, and Ihave paced round and round four courts and quadrangles, and peeped into so many queer little windows and loopholes, that I quite long to get better acquainted with all the odd passages and chambers within.\u2019 \u201cYou must sce the kitchen and the chapel, Mr.Davis,\u2019 said I; \u2018they are considered the great sights of the place, and the only oncs, I believe, really worth seeing.¢ Grace before meat,\u201d observed Mr.M¢livar.¢ You should say the chapel and the kitchen.\u2019 \u2018You can sce them this evening\u2014in five minutes, if you please,\u2019 said Captain Sinclair.¢ As for the parts of the abbey that have been long shut up, I doubt if the old housekeeper herself, who has lived here at least half a century could find keys enough to tuke you over them.I, at \u2018least, have never attempted such a journey.\u2019 ; \u201cIs 1t possible ?\u2019 excluimed Mr.M\u2018Elvar, \u2018Well, if I lived here, I should nover rest till L had ex- lored every corner and cranny.I have not heard half chough about the place; surely there must be haunted rooms, secret passages, sliding pancls, and all sorts of mysteries.1am cortain Charles II.wus concealed her: somewhere or other: they shew his hiding-place at Dunster, not very distant hence.History retains no record of his refugo there, and why should he not have been sheltered by Dightons as well as Luttrels\u2019 ¢ Well, Mr.M:Ilvar,\u2019 said 1, ¢ you are not far wrong in some of your conjectures.There is a scerct chamber somewhere in the abbey; is there not, Captain Sinelair 2 \u201cYes, I have heard something of the sort,\u2019 he answered ; \u2018 but you cannot very well sco it, if there is, as no one now living kuows where to find it.\u2019 ¢ No ?\u2019 said both gentlemen in a breath.¢ Positively no,\u2019 he réplied.¢ My wife would, I suppose, be the sole possessor of the secret, if Sir Thomas had not died so suddenly.It is well known in this neighbourhood that at least one, perhaps two or more concealed npartinents exist in the abbey.The tradition goes, that cach proprietor of the estate has had the sceret revealed to him by his predecessor, under a rol- emn oath of the profoundest secrecy, and that he in like manner is bound to confide it to his heir under the same restrictions; but although the property was settled on Lady Dighton, Sir Thomas never spoke on the subject to her.\u2019 ¢ 1 doubt if the rooms have any real existence,\u2019 said I.¢ Why, I really believe there is some truth in the story,\u2019 answered Captain Sincluir.\u201d * One of the farmers in the neighbourhood told me that his father well remembered a great hue and cry in the country in the Pretender\u2019s time about several persons who, it was said, were traced to the abboy.A strict search was made after them in every part of the building, and the place was watched by a detachment of military for a fortnight or three weeks afterwards, but no one either within or without the walls could discover a trace of the strangers.My informant, however declared that some time after the search had been given up ns hopeless, his father one night saw several persons, RY arently gentlemen, leave the precincts of the abbey, and hastening to the shore, embark in a boat, which made towards a vessel that had been observed all day in the offing.My acquaintance was out on a little private smuggling concern of bis own, and Had to hide from the purty in a hole in the ofiff, whither be went to fetch a keg of brandy.He was certain that he saw Sir Ralph Dighton, the then owner of the abbey, recompany threse persons to the shore, take leave of them there, and after watching the departure of the boat, return to Greyfriars, ¢ And have you never tried to find these rooms ?\u2019 * Dalton our rector has searched for them ovr and over again ; he has tuken plans of the older pyrts of the abbey, where they mast be, if any- erc; he has made all manner of measurements and calculations of dimensions inside and ount- side '\u2014\u2014 ¢ And with no success ?\u2019 * Not the slightest.\u2019 \u2018Well, I would never rest till I found them;

and began again to call after him, but there was no answer.¢ He must have gone into the abbey by the passage,\u2019 suid one of the girls.Captain Sivelair and L instinctively looked at each other; and I saw that, like myself, he wus thinking of the close communication betwcen that passage and Lady Dighton\u2019s apartments, Without saying anything, he began to go quickly up the stairs, and in a moment appeured in the gallery.¢ Davis,\u2019 said he, \u2018come hither; the poor fellow ig ill; he isin a fit, or has fainted, or something.\u2019 Mr.Davis ran up hastily, and remembering that I hud salts in my pocket, I followed him.The gentlemen raised him up; he was dendly pale, nnd evidently quite insensible, but his eyes were staring wide open, and he was very foarful to look upon.\u2018We wust carry him into the abbey,\u2019 said Captain Sinclair, aud between them they began lifting him along the passage, when Lady Dighton opened the door of her sitting- room by which they were pissing, and asked the reagon of the unusual sounds so near her apartments, Tt was soon explained to her.Of course she had heard of our guests, though she had never seen them, and now, with nll the courtesy she dould at times display, she insisted on the sick man being brought into her room and laid upon the sofa.I put the salts t» his nose, and their pungency sebmel \u2018to revive him.He raised his head, and looked wildly around him.1fc was hostly pale, and apparently unable to speak; Fis eyes glared vacantly on the surrounding objects, nnd at length fixed upon Lady Dighton, while a strange expression began to appear in Lis countenance.¢ am unknown to your friend, which I ought not to be,\u2019 said she smiling to Mr.Davis; \u2018 but I am a'sad invalid, and every one humours and excuses me.You, too, I hope,\u201d she continued, tarning to Mr.M\u2018Dvar, and looking more gentle and handsome than I had ever acen her, as she mnde À step or two towards him\u2014 you, too, E hopc\u2019\u2014 She stop abruptly, and imagine our astonishment when we saw him vehemently stretch forth his arms, with the hands widely expanded towards hier, as if to thrust her from him.¢ Stand off !\u2014away! away!\u2019 he cried.She paused, and we all looked at each other in amasement.\u2018 Awayl\u2019 ho re peated more faintly, but with the same exprossion of repugnance and disgust.Poor bewildered Mr.Davis then seized him by the arm, saying: \u2018We muet get him to his own room.\" Captain Sinclair, ic confusion and dismay, immediately seized the other arm, and said he would shew them the way.They Jeft the room, and so did I, searcely knowing tha I did so.Thé effect of this strange behaviour on Lady Dighton, I never knew, It was not till I had been some little time in my own chamber, that it occurred to me that I ought mot to have left her alone after so strange an occurrence; but it was done, and could not be helped.The children had not followed us to the abbot's gallery, but had quitted the chapel by the usual entrance, When Mr.Davis rejoined us at the tea-table, he looked greatly troubled; nevertheless, he ave a good report of his friend, who, he said, Bad recovered from his attack, but, as he seemed weak and nervous, he had persuaded him to go to bed.He did not attewspt any explanation of his conduct towards Lady Dighton, nor even allude to it.After tea, he returned to Mr.M¢Ilvar, and did not como back to us till we were about to scparate for the night.As I ed along one of the passages leading to my Pedehamber, 1 heard a s'ight noise behind me, and turning round, saw Mr.Davis on tiptoe quickly following me, ¢ Miss Vornon,' said he ia 8 whisper, \u2018 could you oblige mc by coming into the garden without your pupils before at?I carvest! wish to have a few moments\u2019 conversation wit ou.Pray, come if you possibly can;

but, of course, it 1s all surmise.In an instant both the burges weve blown to atoms, and the magaxiucs momentarily followed.Police-Constable Wood, who was on the river wall at the time and witnessed the explosion, states that a part of his boat extended along the river bank ffom Erith to the powder magazine of Mosers Hall.On Saturday moming about half pust six o'clock, he left Erith, and walked luong the bauk about half-a-mile when the explosion occurred.To the best of his recollection the time was about a quarter to seven olcock.He had got te withid about half-a-milo of the wagazine when all of a sudden he observed a great body of smoke rise up in the direction of the stores, and the next moment he saw an im.meuse mountain of fire burst up as if from the carth, and rise to an cnormousheight.The sight was first Jike what ho had soen in the pictarcs of the great cruptions of Mount Vesuvius, and while he was lo kiug up with wonderment at the great height ot which the *\u201c mountain\u2019 of flame rose, he was lifted off bis fect, and hurled headlong into the marshes.For the moment he was uppslled'by the great noise, and on recovering his thoughts he ran along the bank to render assist- anee, fucling convinced that the magazines had blown up.On approaching the spot he found that such had really taken place, both tho lower uud upper magazines hud vuuished, and the cottages of the workpeople were a heap of ruins and on fire.Me could hear the shrieks and screams of thie poor creatures buried in the ruins, The first person he wet was Mr.Walter Silver, who had apparently just extriented himself from beneath the ruing of his house.Ho seemed much hurt, and was bleeding rom a wound a¢ the back of his head.A gentleman who was roused from sleep at Forest Gate, in Kssex, gives à vivid sketch of the sublimity of the spectacle ag seen by him.Ie says: \u2014* I saw an immense column of smoke very gradually and majestically rising to the height of (at a rough guess) about a mile or a mile and a half, when it slowly cxpanded in rolling masses of dense smoke, assuming the shape of a gigantic balloon.lu about five minutes tall column became spiral and transparent, whiic its summit was almost black.At this moment the sun shone forth from behind a cloud, and threw a tinge of red over onc side of the now umbrella-shaped mass of smoke, and a long dark shadow was cast upon the cloud above, seeming to extend about two wiles from east to west.Owing to the almost entire absence of wind this remarkable spectacle rarmoined megrly stationary at least eight minutes.\u201d Tho shock is thus described by a watchman nt Gravesend: \u2014* I was on the pier,\u201d he anid, * when T suddenly lost my balance, and almost instantaneously 1 heard an awful explosion.On turning round, 1 saw, as it were, à pillar of fire rising to the clouds, which it appeared to strike, and then spread out like a huge fan, peesesting a most beautiful and grand spectacle.\u201d their shop fronts crushed in, framework, shut ters, and all, as if a coal waggon or some heavily laden vehiole had been dashed through them.Some of the villa residences have had their walls split and theis ceilings cracked, and their furniture dashed about and broken, Woolwich Las also suffered immensely ; the Barrack windows on tise Common are smashed in overy direction ; and so great was the shoek that the inhabitants, and even the Government officials, thought that it was the Ardensl that bad ex snd it was not watll seme portions of hooks of Slessrs Hall fearful episode iv wy hitherto eommon-place (\u2018qo rey fare candle works, 4n course of censtruou:, , immediate vicinity of the asjpes, have been blown to pieces, and the.mis fly of .: da 7 cw eb me iD © itself to thade who di a that dip ver of one of their books was as Greenwich.a rc i ere that a mile from the scone of the accident,\" tion 1 the workmen have boon swifous) of them, it io feaved, fatally.» i , In Loudon, although 36 îles distan}, gh was like that of sa earthquake.It was distific the wetropolih apd } 3 the roof of a small house adjoining it, and déshed .itin, Fortunately, - although sefural powonst were in the house, no oye was injured with thei: cxoeption of 8 little boy, whe was asleep in thé À top room, and was somewhat severely brui about the head and face.A somewhat sin incident occurred at the house of a men uamod Hughes, living in Lock's HFiclds.It - svems that he was warming some coffee for his - breakfast, when the stone mantelpiece wus yok ;

the loss of the Northerners is placed at 5,000.Sheridan claims to have captured 50 us aud 10 flags.At first it was reported that t was in command, but it is now doubtful if he was present at all.On receipt of the news, Grant ordered a salute of 100 guns from each of his armies; this victory, Grant says, \u2018stamps Sheridan, what I have always thought him, one of the ablest of generals.\u201d The situation on the James River is unchanged.Guerillas still continue to annoy the Federals hovering continually between Grant and Washington.On Weduesday weck, they attacked 2 only seven miles from Washington.In the West, Hood apparently wishes to get back to the South.This Sherman wishes to prevent, and is doing his best to intercept him.Hood and Forrest have inflicted great damage to the country through which they have pussed.If Hood cannot inanage to clude Sherman, a decisive battle may be expected.Several towns along the Mississippi have been surprised by of Confederates.Price continues to retreat.There is a report that the Confederates bave captured Matamoras, in Texas.Lincoln has appointed the last Thursday in November as a day of thanksgiving for recent victories.A Convention has ben held in Cincianati.has slightly declined.Details of the capture of the Rornoke will be found in another column.Brain and his associates were arrested at Bermuda, and will be tried for seizing and burning that ship.Bail was refused for them.An address, with 300,000 signatures attached, has been sent from England to Governor Sey- tour, entreating the Northern people to make pence with the South, The Conference at Vi.ess appears to have settled all the points in dispute betwcen Denmark and the German States.Good news comes from New Zelaand, 90 the effect that the natives have all uncondition- |: surrendered to the Queens authority.Semmes, with 8 officers of the * Alabama\u201d and 100 men, left Liverpool to take charge of the steamer \u201c Ranger,\u201d rccently at Madeira.The commercial erisis continued.The raid on St.Alban's has created much in- forest throughout Canada.The trial of the tweaty arrested, commenced on Monday, at St.John's, before Judge Coursol.Nothing beyond identifying the parties was done the first day.The result is eagerly looked forward to.The raid has crested intense excitement throughout \"the border towns in the States, and false alarms arefrequent.The Confederation Conference at are expected to finish their labours by 3 financial and judicial features of the arrangemcnt engaged attention.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE ST.ALBANS\u2019 RAID, Oun Montreal correspondent, fa common with choose, to rob aud: slay, and to return again to Canada for shelter, the United States would be perfectly justified in adopting similar retaliatory measures.It does not matter to us what com- wissiop those men may haw bad, they had no right to use the hospitulity we afford thom, to injure those with um we arc at pesce.If they escape the .Vesmont pesiteotiary, they should not ours.* We sincerely trust, however, that they may bb givett up to the Vermont authorities.The robbing of a peaceful town was not the act of honorable - soldiers, but of guerillas, of brigands of men whom the whole world agrees toœut on the same footing as robbers.Even the Confederacy is forced to regard them as such.When guerillas are captured by Federal soldiers in Virginia, they are hung, and against tho act the Richmond government can enter no protest.It will be strange if what is thus harshly punished ina .oountry in _the midst of war, should be tolerated \u2018in\u2019 Canada.Besides, Jeff Davis's commisgion may be of paramount authority within lie Southern territory, but in Canada, or in ay other foreign country, it is worthless.Jeff Davis:had 80 more right than the Emperor of Frangp or of Morocco, to send his soldiers into Capads with a commission to carry on war from its borders.If these St.Albans\u2019 cutthroats have, as thoy \u2018assert, a commission front their President for what they have done, it is of no more value in a Canadinu Court than so much waste paper.When they came into Canadas, they came as ordinary citizens, and rendercd themselves subject to our laws, It is for the interest of Canada that these men be given up.They have been guilty of robbery and of murder; it would disgrace us forever to say wo allowed them to escape punishment, if it would not involve us in actual war with the Republic.reel COUNTY OF HUNTINGDON PLOUGHING MATCH.Tue usual ploughing match for this County is to bc held on Tuesday next, on the farm of Mr.Hugh Graham.Owing to the low state of the funds of the Society, it was doubted whether a match could be held this year, but through the energy and liberality of several of the office- bearers acd Directors of the Society, it will take place.Mr.Anderson, Vice-President, gave $10; D.McFarlane, $4; Mr.Schuyler, President, 81; Mz Pater MaFarlane, $1: Mr.Oliver, $1; Mr.Barrett, 2.With a view to secure a larger turn-out than usual, the Socicty has very praperly passed a rule that no old ploughman, wh hnstoken a prise at any previous match, will be allowed to compete.This isa great inducement for the young farmers of the County to come forward; and we trust to see a large turn-out of them on Tuesday.Beforq the winter fairly sets in, our Village Council should see to the repairing of the sidewalks.From loose and broken planks, they are most dangerous to pedestrians these: dark nights.The \u2018two \u2018new Post-offices were opened io this County on Oot.1st, viz.Powerscourt, (Percy's;

Schools in this village, at the conclusion of his task lie made the following reports :\u2014 1 examined the Huntingdon Academy, Oct.17th, 18th, and 19th, 1864, and found that the pupils in attendance are receiving every justice.The results, in those for any time under Mr.Maclaren, show a rapid, healthy developement of faculty, which well capacitates them for successful advancement.In no part of the teaching could I find anything of a meagre or indifferent character.The minds of the students are fairly and skilfully dealt with; aud I especially marked that the mechanical facility and correctness of the scholars in reading, writing, and arithmetie, as well as in the higher branches of instruction, keep pace with their general knowledge aud de- vclopement of fuculty\u2014an indispensable part of scheol training.Another thing I noticed, was a systematic unity of effort, both in conveying instruction, and in training the mind of the scholar to the same.And were this way of teaching and studying more pursued in our educational institutions, it would greatly help in supplanting imperfect methods of every description, and thus gradually reduce systems of teaching more to one uniform type.The pupils were searchingly examined in every subject of study ; and in no part of test lesson or exercises did they fail, thus giving ample proof of sound teaching.In arithmetic, to test their knowledge, of calculating principles and their dexterity in working and giving diversity of processes, a number of cxamples were iven.All results were very satisfactory.Fhree examples were given, fuirly to test their knowledge of these.From a class of 14, the total varieties were 400, which gives an average of nearly 29 ways to each.Grammar and composition are very successfully taught; and so are geography and history.Their knowledge of sacred history is very satisfactory.Those studying algebra, geometry, French, Latin, and Greok are receiving every justice.I have to report very very flatteringly of the Lady who has charge of the Musical Department.Very fair progress has been made since my last examination.I am glad that the subject is beginning to excite more interest, and to appreciated as an auxiliary in the work of education in this Institution.I hope that more attention will be paid to vocal musie also ; and that both vocal and instrumental music will ere long become essential sub- jecta of education in the Huntingdon Academy.n a word, there is good reason to be satisfied with the present state of the Institution ; but what is needed to give it a greater elevation, and further extend its usefulness is a united effort on the part of ita Directors and others interested in its prosperity.ouN Bruck, Inspector of Schools.Examinggion of the School of District No.1, on October 11th and 12th.This School continues to distinguish itself.The unwearied attention of Mr.Whyte to his duties merits praise.In the coursc of the examination a number of things drew my attention, and convinced mo that \u2018from the simplest elements of instruction to the training of thu most advanced pupils, a very efficiont systom is pursued, with a well directed animus, The initiatory part of his teaching pleased mo much.In it a sdlid, well organised framework is laid, within which the child'e mind can be intelligently worked as he progrosecs.What me must in this Dopartment of the School was his way of bringing into play and suitubly exercising the facultion of the youngest children.If a thing is told, it is illustrated, and is continuously brought.before the mind, till a lasting intelligent impression is made.Thus, the progress of the mind to a certain oxtent, and from the beginning, is aoquiring a heaithy dovelopement, a gradual increase of real knowludge, and ranifesting à spon- tancous focling of activity.Tho higher part of the School gave evidenou of laborious teaching.Though the pupils wero sabjected to searehin tests to asccriain toaghing results, very fow fail - eas aly to show satisfactory progres.The reading of the most advanced scholers was fveat, and inuota few instances expressive.Evidontly the reading was through the understanding.Dictation spelling was all I could wish, and the definition and applieation of words came up fully to my expectation.In writing and avithmetie they excel.It arithmetie, they were searchingly exumised on processes, princi and applieu- tions, To test their kncwlodge of the various ways of applying the multiplying principle, a sum in simple multiplication, of a rable number of figures.was given to be variously worked |- within a few minutes.The following results were obtained from a class of 14, vis.: James Shanks, 13 different ways; William Hopper, 19 do ; Andrew Chalmers, 8 do; Elisabeth apper, 7, do ; June Cunningham, 8 do ; Annie Caldwell, 15 do ; Elisabeth Stark, 14 do; George Maxwell, 16 do; John Steele, 9 do; Robert Coulter, 10 do; Janes Shirriff, 8 do; Iugh McAdam, 8 do; Jumes McCallum, 8 do; Wm.Wallace Whyte, G do.2 Considering the time, the results obtuined@®ere Lighly creditable, for they had to attend to two things while working, namely, to dexterity in working, and to studying variety to obtain the sae answer.Vory ereditable specimens of composition were produeed ; and their know of grammar, both of its principles and their apph- cation in construction, is over ordinary in Common Schools.Goography is well taught.I have no School under my jurisdiction in which Book-keeping is better taught, nor its principles better unfolded and illustrated.It is a grent advantage to this School that it continues so long under the master, and that it is kept regularly in operation.À number of the Commissioners favoured us with their presence, and evidently took an interest in the work of the examination.One thing they have done which deserves notice, and which sets a good example to other School Commissioners.They have furnished each of their Schools with a copy of \u201cMorrison\u2019s Manual of School Management,\u201d one of the most suitable, talented, and practical Treatises that has yet issued from the English press on the subject of Education, a book exactly suited to the requirements of our Teachers.It is not the fault of Commissioners, if their Teachers, with such a guide, will not come up and keep up to improvements in teaching and conducting Schools.I find there is still a deficiency in the Apparatus of their Schools.Joun Bruce, Inspector of Schools.MONTREAL CORRESPONDENCE.THE ST.ALBAN'S RAID.Tue daring act of robbing the banks in St.Albans, Vermont, in day-light by twenty-five men, who set a population of 3500 at defiance, has created immense excitement.The story about the raid is soon told.A number of strangers put up at the chief hotel in St.Albans, and some of them were dressed in Foderal uniform.\u2018They seemed to be strangers to cach other.On Wednesday, about three o'clock, with pistols in hand two of them appeared at one of the banks and demanded gold.The astonished and af- frigiited cashier had to give them the range of the bank, and they filled their pockets.Three wore cutcred to help themselves.The doors were guarded.A merchant was allowed to step in to deposit money, and it\u2018was snatched from him.At two other banks sifnilar proceedings were going on.Over $200,000 were taken and the raiders having provided themselves with horses at other people's expense, rode off in great glee.The St.Albanites were helpless.Like a crowd of babies, they just looked on.Pluckless patriots they must be in that place, to be scared by a body of 25 men, The bold Dick Turpins seem to have divided the spoil, separated, and made tracks for Canada, where they nearly all have come to grief.The Governor- General ordered cvery effort should be made to have them arrested.Our police magistrates, with detectives and policemen, left for the border, and caught, as I have said, 15\u2014two others have been arrested in the United States.The best legul talent has becn employed to defend the raiders, and the great question will be, are they regular troops belonging to the Confederate Government, and ordered to make war in the way they did?If such is proved the Canadian authorities will bave to let them go, Scot free, as in the case of the Southerners who took possession of the Chesapeake.Mr.Parsons, to the astonishment of everybody, declares them to be nothing but robbers.He evidently hos seen by new light.Before, everything that was done by the Confederates was right, even the seizure and sinking of two Federal vessels in Lake Erie.He says the raiders at St.Albans were not in Confederate uniform, neither, were, I would answer, the pirates on Lake Erie, There is no doubt that the former arc Southerners, but in what capacity they are remains to beseen.They are pow in St.John\u2019s juil.and will likely be removed to this city.Owing to fear of an at tempted rescue the Volunteer Cavalry is out on duty there, aud the regulars have got instructions to bein readiness.This will be the most important trial that over took place j5 Canada, and the decision will, I think, \u2018require\u2019 tho endorosa- tion of the Imperial Government.I have just been informed that the trial com- menoed to day at St.John\u2019s, and that a portion of the 30th Regiment has been sent out to keep the peace.The magistrates at Farnham will not give up four of the prisoners, as they maintain that the magistrates of Montreal have no right to take thew out of the Distriot.Seventeen of the raiders have been arrosted with over $100,000 of the stolen money.They are nearly all young mon about twenty, and say they are Confederates.They have a respectable and intelligent appearance\u2014Their chief, Lieut.Young, has written a leitor to the Telegraph stating that he holds a commission from President Davis, aud that the raid was made in re.tiliation for the outrages in the Shenandoah Valley.He purposed, lic says, to bave burned 8t.Albans and neighbouring villages.Bat we have no evidence that he intended to do any thing more than rob the 8.THE CONFERBNOB

your issue of the 21st instant, that the Auditors of the County Council have thoug it necessary to reply to my letter of the Gth instant, accusing them of \u201c Carlessness or stupidity\u201d in charging \u201cHiochinbrooke with £43 15s.on the Secretary-Treasurer\u2019s account book, although no resolution or hy-law of the County Council during the past year imposed such a sum upon Hinchinbrooke.\u201d After reading the reply, I have no hesitation in now stating that they charged the said sum of £43 15s.through stupidity, for their verbose communication is stupidity stupified.They acknowledge that the \u201cactaal indebtedness® of Hinchinbrooke on the 30th June last was \u201c£16 \u2018 33.6d.as appears by their account,\u201d why did they not state so in their report, instcad of stating it was £589, 18s.6d.7 Thereby deceiving the Council and the rate payers of the whole County, besides placing Hinchinbrooke as a large defaulter, which it has never been.They wish to throw the blame on the former Auditors, this they cannot do, and therefore it is any thing but creditable to them; they know that they committed an crror, and have nôt the manliness te acknowledge it.The indebtedness of Hinchinbrooke, as per Mr.Andrew Somerville's report, was correct ; had it been otherwise I should have pointed out the error, as in the present case, for I have always since I have been Secretary-Treasurer of Hinchinbrooke seen that the Auditors, report of the County Counc] agreed with the amount I had paid the Scecretar Treasurer of the County Council and the balance remaining unpaid.Therefore they, and they alone, are to blame for charging the £43 131, to Hinchine brooke, making £50 18s.Gd.appear against said township when it should only be £16 3s, ¢d., and I again assert, without fear of contradiction, that the entry on the Sccretary-Treasuver books in the hand writing of one of the Auditors, aye and more, that Elgin was charged with over £36.So Mr.Lighthall told me, (and actually showed me the said ci against Elgin,) and said he, \u201c when D saw that \u201chad the halance atrock against Elgin for over \u201c1 told them there was a mistake, aud after searching \u201c they found the error of the charge and gave Elgin \u201ccredit for it, so leaving the actnal amount due Tr \u201cFigin as appears by their report,\u201d this charge, and thon the credit given can be secn on Mr.Lighthail's books, in the hand writing of one of the Auditors, They quote a resolution passed on the 24th, June, 1863, to prove that they had a right to charge the said amount of £43 15s.lo Hinchinbrooke ; it reads as - follows == dy © * t was moved by Councillor Priest seconded b; Councillor Brady, and, 7 tractors for the Percy bridge.Your readers will perceive that this was only an order to the Sccretary-Treasurer to the balance due for tho creotion of the Percy bridge, but not for imposing the sum of £43 15s.on Hinchiobrooke, and over £36 on Elgin, The resolution is just auch \u2018ap Is ed by any Council ordering their Scoretà reasurer to par the moanies in hands foy done parties.What would im thought capabilities of any Auditors

and in 1864 10 4,670,000 cwts.The supply has been thus more than doubled in amount from 1802 t6 1804.The value of the supply has increased from forty-six millions of dollars in the first seven months of 1862, to two hundred and twenty-one millions in the first seven months of 134g.A little more than double the amount uf cotton brought into British market for the first «even months in 1862 was imported into the same warket within the first seven months vf the present year; but the value of the current year's importations wus as nearly as possible five to one of those of 1861.Where did the supply come from?In the firet eight months cf the pust three years, Egypt, India, pad Ohjua supplied the British market as foi- ows:\u2014 1862.1863.1864.Egypt.£2.372.755 £2 43,278 £10,192,905 India.4.883.800 11.950,999 17,816,147 China.gah 994,425 4,216,584 It thus appears that while Egypt, India, and China supplied cotton to the value of but 836,- 000,000 in the first threc-quarters of 1862, they supplied cotton within the same period ot 1864 to the tune of 2150,000,000.Coxvertenr Facts ro Kxow.\u2014Windows may be kept free from ice by painting the glass with alcohol with a brush or sponge.Odors from boiling ham, cabbage.&e., may be prevented by throwiug red pepper-pods or a few pieces of chareonl into the pot.Pigeons are hatched in 10 days ;
