The steamship North American, from Liverpool via liondeiidei'ry Q‘lnd, arrived off this point en route for Quebec, at 7 o’clock on Sunday. GREAT BRlTAlN. ‘ The Tuscarora. left Belfast Lough early in the morning of the 20th tilt.,and returned to Kingstown and anchored out- side the buy the same night. The London T277208 says, we infer from the undisguised sneers of the Northern journals, and the bold insolence of the members of the bar, as exemplified in the Gordon case at Boston, that an under cur- rent of popular disgust with the manage- ment of the war is beginning to find ex- pression. Then referring to the conscrip- tion, it says. the land of self-government and unlimited freedom is creating terror. It adds that involuntary servitude is now the lot of the white race. The London Herald says, that if a de- cisive disaster should befall Gen. McClel‘ lan, Gen. Pope, or Gen. Buell, the North may carry on a border warfare, but will have nothing to say against the power that prefers to the South recognition, and the right hand offellowship. The Daily chws says, the symptoms of bitterness and desperation of the South are such. that extraordinary exertions on the part of the North are called for. it adds, it is sulliciently clear that the war can only be speedily closed by bringing in overwhelming force into the field, and every friend, not only of America, but of humanity and peace, will desire to see new levies raised and equipped Without further delay. The Star says, if the summons to arm be but generally obeyed, the South will presently have to encounter such an armed force as the most powerful European monarchy would be unable to resrst. The Paris Pays says the harvest is the best for the last ten years, and that we will not be compelled to have recourse to any corn from abroad. The Paris correspondent of the London Tunes says that the Emperor recently expresscd a very decrded condemnation of Garibaldi’s movements, and was eVen of the opinion that the Italian Government was not quite blameless in the matter. The embarkation of troops for Mexico has been suspended until the arrival efthe next mail from Vera Cruz. ITALY. It was confirmed that Garibaldi enter- ed Catania, and was Well received by the peerile. In the Senate, M. Ratazzi stated that the Government considered Garibaldi in rebellion and the situation of Sicily grave, but hoped the difficulties would be Stir- mounted. lt was hoped that in a few days, Sicily would be restored to its norâ€" mal condition. The Senate, after hearing M. Ratazzr’s explanation, adopted the fol- leiviiigzâ€"‘Reselved, that the Senate is convinced that the Ministers will act with the greatest energy, that: order, law, and the dignity of the Crown and Parliament may be maintained intact,’ The London Times editorially blames Garibaldi's rashness, and says his success would indefinitely prolong the occupation ref Rome. In .the London money market the funds were weaker. The Times city article at: vtiibutesrthe fall in the funds to the teleâ€" grams in [the extras given of the news from America, which, the article says, shows an increase in anarchy and ferocity throughout the entire country, and dimi- nishes the probability of an end to the centesLuntil .the exercise of mutual exter’ minatien shall have been tried to the last point.

The New York Wed/l, in a resume of the events of the week, says: “ Of this battle we have as yet no reliaâ€" ble reports beyond the fact that our army was worsted. The enemy was strongly reinforced during the night, and offered battle early in the morning. Pope ac- cepted the challenge and the conflict raged with varying fortures during the entire day. Franklin for some reason failed to arrive until it was too late to change the result of the contest. \Ve were'driven hick. What our losses were is not at lifetime of writing stated; but they were probably considerable, as the distance our army retreated was over six miles. Un- til full accounts are received, it is safe to asssumc that we lost all our desperately,l wounded, and perhaps, some guns and; stores. l “ The excitement in the city of Wash- l iegten, as might be supposed, was intense. l C‘anh5nadmg could be (“Stine”); hemdflrofthis district are acting Iiobly.

Be.- tween 12 and “.3 o’clock an entire stoppage of the cannonatling took place. The probability is that at that time Gen. Pope was rapidly retreating in the direction of Centreville, perhaps finding that the rebel army was flanking him from the north-- west. At two o’clock the cannonading was resumed, and continued until six o’clock, when it ceased. “lt is evident that General Pope is fighting with terrible tenacity. Ilistery records few instances of such tremendous struggles as the battles before JilClllnond, and these again before ‘v‘vashingten.â€"â€" Usually, one or two days is sufficient in Europe to determ'ne a victory or a re treat. in this country, owing to topo- graphical peculiarities, battles can be con- ducted for several days in succession without any definite result. There is so much wood and water, and the ground is so broken that rules which appertain to warfare in the cultivated plains of Europe do not avail here, and hence the remarkâ€" able succession of conflicts which this war has witnessed. THE BATTLE OF SUNDAY. The army correspondents of the Philaâ€" delphia Press give full accounts of the battles of Friday, Saturday and Sunday. We copy pei'tienszwâ€" “The city is full of rumors about the battle going on to-day in the vicinity of Bull Run. The excitement runs high on the Avenue in consequence of the circula- lation of these reports. .[ am happy to say that 1 have just seen an officer of high rank this afternoon, who has given me some most important news. “ General Pope seems to have met with a temporary reverse te-day. life was sick. From all that can be gathered we have suffered severely. Our men arecen- fident of retrieving our loss of Saturday. ‘ft, was owing to 'their impetuosity and daring in charging the enemy in the woods that they suffered so many casu- alties. . There was no righting of consequence on Sunday, only occasional skirinishing, er a few shots poured into the woods from time to time on the enemy, to try the range of Our guns. From the severe conflicts previously, it was evident that both armies were en- gaged in repairing damages. About one o’clock yesterday afternoon several trains ofcars at Mauassas Junc- tion, with ammunition and stores, were burnt by the military authorities to pre- vent them falling into the hands of the enemy, which seemed to be imminent, the bridge of Bull Run having. been de- stroyed by the rebels, and the property therefore being cut off from returning to a place of safety: CINCINNATI, Sept. 2,1 P.M.â€"â€"Busi- ness is entirely suspended, the street rail- road cars have stopped running, and there is a good deal of excitement, but no pa- nic.

It was inertifyâ€" mg for General Pope to do this, but ne- cessity knows no law, and Sumner and Porter had not arri'ied to save the day. Ccnlreville is a most important point, and Manassas Junction is equally so, and no one can fail to see that it is absolutely necessary for us to keep possession of them. , “ This morning the rebels renewed the battle at daybreak, and it has been raging furiously all day. An attempt was made to turn our right, but the brave Sicgel, with his trusty Germans and the batteries he knows how so well to manoeuvre, was at once ordered to the right, and the enemy was driven back with heavy loss. Siegel headed a bayonet charge in per- son, it is said, and in this new position dis- tinguished himself. Then a bold stroke was made at our centre, which was hand- sotnely repulsed by McDowell. After this a desperation was fearfully evident among the rebels, and there soon emerged from the dust a long solid mass of men coming down upon our poor wornâ€"out army at a bayonet charge on the double- quick. By the description of these who saw this line of bayonets, I am satisfied that in the distance it must have. present- ed a spectacle. at once awful, sublime, ter- rific and overwhelming. ’ THE CONFEDERATE CHARGE. “On came the demons, as if emerging from the earth, In wellâ€"capriseued inyriads, reaching in solid columns as far as the li. mit of human vision. Ttint we Were fully prepared to meet this onset properly, and our men stood, pale, but full of courage, awaiting the result, fully determined to die nobly fighting for the Stars and StripeS, if die they must; and they saw no safety in retreat. “The rebels came unhandsemely within good range, and taking our fire a commotion was observed in their ranks. ‘While this encouraged our men, General Pope saw what was the intent of it all. THE CONFEDERATES TURN THE FEDERAL LEFT. “Almost as quick as thought the bugles sounded, the order to the rebel pliaâ€" lanxes, and instantly the huge mass of reâ€" bels was hurled against our left wingâ€"â€" The gallant division ef Reno and Schenck â€"â€"â€"-heroes and victors of other fieldsâ€" steod their ground for a short space, but Were soon overpowered, and gave way.“ Setting up a yell of triumph, the rebels pushed ever piles of their own dead men and the corpse of many a patriot, using the bayonet at close quarters with our troops.” WASHINGTON, Sept. ifs-"The Star of this evening reports that the rebels lest General Ewell, killed, Stonewall Jackson badly wounded, and a large proportion of generals and field etlicers. General Siegel was wounded in the hand. A gentleman, who returned from, the battle field this morning, reports that in Saturday’s fight, our left Wing was com. inanded by General Nicl)0wcil, but owing to the murderous enfilading fire of the rebels, he was compelled to fall back. Gen. Sigel commanded the centre, and Gen. Kearney the right. It appears that our forces attacked the enemy In the woods, from which the latter opened numerous batteries, cansing great slaughter. The rebels suffered equally as much as our own troops. Our informant says that our main forces were five miles from Cen- treville, on Sunday, in battle array, and propaer for all en'iergcncies, having been strongly reinforced. The most devoted attention is being paid to the wounded. Many ladies have rnadr- liberal contribu tions from their private stores, and have been unremitting in their care and atten- tion to the wounded.

BY R‘JAIL.-â€"Tlle city to-night was in a slate of great excitement, and not with- out most substantial cause. Last night there was a series of skir- mislies along the whole front, during which we lost two of our best generals and other valuable efiicers. Acco: ding to prevalent reports, it was Hoeker’s division which was mainly, if not altOgcther engaged in driving back the Confederates, but the one-mile skirmishing was ottended with much less of life. At fetir o’cock this morning a train of 100 wagons, with bomrnissary stores was intercepted by the enemy between Fairfax and Ccntreville, and driven off toward fvlanassas, before the party could be ever- taken; They secured the entire train. So soon as this raid in the rear of our army was known, the necessity efguarding that. direction became apparent, and at noon the whole army of Virginia had abandoned Centreville, and was massed this side of Fairfax Court House. This afternoon they again took up the line of march, and this evening was in sight of Manson Hill. The enemy’s cavalry followed them in the distance, but made no attacl . At noon to day, Gen. McClellan rode out to meet the returning column, and was received with great demonstrations of gratification and pleasure by the army. The works for the defence of Wash ingten are all in an excellent condition, and are manned by experienced artillei‘ists. The guuboats are now lining the Poto- mac to prevent any attempt to interrupt the navigation of the river. The Cabinet meeting to day was long continued. There is no panic here but a generally expressed sohcitude regarding the future. Wallace assumed command of Cincinnati, Covington and Newport toâ€"day. In view of the dangerfrom an attack by the rebels, he has placed the cities under martial law, ordered all business to cease, and all business houses to be closed, the A NEW Emuâ€"A novel era for the Yankees began on Monday, when the new tax law went into operation. it imposes taxes on all spirits and ale brevved after the first of August last; it requires a best of persons engaged in trade to take out licence: it imposes a tax upon a great variety of manufactured articles; it levies a specific tell on carriages, pleasure boats, slaughtered animals, and an ad valorem duty on interest on railroad bonds, divi- dends, official salaries, and receipts for advertisements; it levies a tax 0 above $600, and upon all legacies, &c., and it requires a stamp duty from medicine and perfumery manufactures.

THE seventeenth annual exhibition of the Provincial Agricultural As- sociation of Canada “fest, takes place in Toronto on the 22nd, 23rd, 24th, 25th and 26th ofthe present month. The first of these days will be devoted to the final recep~ ltion of articles for exhibition, so that the grounds will not be opened to the public till Tuesday, the 23rd. We have reason to believe that every arrangement has been made , by the officers of the Association to render the forthcoming exhibition fully equal. if not superior, to any Di its predecessors. Toronto en- joys the advantage of possessing a large, and well constructed buildâ€" ing, erected expressly for the pur- pose, and well adapted for arrang- ing the various articles of skill and produce do be shown. The ad- joining grounds are likewise suffi- ciently commedions and conveni- ent for the classification of stock, horses, poultry and farming impleâ€" ments. An exceedingly .iberal list of prizes is offered in the vari- ous departments, indicating that Ithe affairs of the association must be in a Very prosperous condition. The total sum of $4,842 will be offered In the various classes of Cattle, horses, sheep, and pigs.» This does not include the value of the. books, diplomas or extra prizes; nor the Prince of \Vales’ prize of$50, for the best Durham Bull. The total value of premiums for the different grades of cattle is $2018; the highest being $40 for the best herd of Durhams, consist- ing of one bull, and five cows or heifers; or cows and heifers. Horse-breeders are not quite so li- berally encouraged as those of cattle, the prizes amounting alto- gether to $1396, Considering, however, that there are seven classes of cattle and only four of horses, there is not perhaps such a diSproportion in the amounts as might at. first sight be supposed. There are nine classes of sheep; and the total amount of prizes in money is $924. The highest pre- miums in each of the first eight the highest in the ninth class, which includes fat sheep only, is $123.- Six classes of pigs are enumerated in the list, and the sum of $84 offered in each class. The Canada Company offers a prize of$100, for the best twenty- five bushels of wheat, of one dis- tinct variety, quite pure, the growth The wheat, will be given up to the association, a View to its distribution The winner of this prize will be required to give a statement. in writing, to the Secretary, of the na- ture ofthe soil,mode of preparation, the. variety and quantity of seed, time of sewing, rnanurcs (if any used), produce per acre, and other particulars of practical importance, premium. \Vinners of prizes in all the classes of agricultural and horticultural productions, will be expected to furnish similar informa- A first prize of $24. is also to be the best “2 lbs. of scutehod flax ;' also a second prize of $16, and a third of $8 by the Association. in agricultural implements, the first and second sections include iron and wooden plouglts: The first, second and third prizes in each section are $12. $8 and $4, re-a spectively. These ploughs are to be practically tested in the field; on Tuesdav,by a committee appointed for the purpose. Ease of draught, quality of work and price, to be taken into consideration. It may be here remarked, that complaints have frequently been made by exâ€" hibitors of agricultural implements, that the judges are often disposer] to attach undue importance to the mere external appearance of their articles; that the pattern, practical utility, and those qualities that ought unquestionany to claim the preference, are sometimes over- looked, while those articles that are covered with a profusion of orna- mental painting and carving, carry ofl premiums. Thorough practi- cal men will not be likely to com- mit such an error as this; and hence the importance of appointing none but practical men as judges in that department. We observer'that a first prize of $4, and a second of $52, will be given for the best, and second best bushel of Hungarian grass seed. The Hungarian grass is very highly recommended as an article of fodder by these who have used it. This fact, together with its immense yield per acre, makes it a valuable crop to the farmer. it is very desirable, therefore, that its cultivation should receive much encouragement as possible ; and that all the available information should be obtained in reference to the soil, tillage 810, best adapted to its growth. it would have been well, indeed, if the association had offered a much higher figure forthe best sample of seed, accompanied by whatever useful information the exhibitor might be able to furnish. >04 Exhibition Programme.

The people of that Circuit always entertain. a true. and warm- affection for their ministers, but they feel that in the death of their beloved and‘honeured pas- tor, whose appointmcnt among them=waa received as a great privilege, they expe- t‘ience an especial and extraordinary trial. â€"â€"C‘/zrislian Guardian. ACCIDENT To “run ‘Gncm‘ E‘xs‘ris' ERN.’â€"â€"â€"The steamship ‘Great Eastern’ met With an accident while coming into Long Island Sound, in the neighbourhood of Montauk Point, by touching upon a sharp rock, that opened a leak into her stern compartment, through which the water made so fast after she arrived at her anchorage, that it was soon appa~ rent that she was settling by the stern, net'a withstanding the action of the pumps. W'e suppose nothing can be done to step the leak until the cargo is out, and then i? is a question her it is to be got at. “fly/E How TO AVOID A DRAFT.-â€"Vl"liat or~ der does the examining surgeon of a re- cruiting office give when a heavy ‘ draft’ of wind rushes through the cracks around the edges of the door of his apartment? (N. B. Nail this up next winterâ€"not the question, but the answer. The importin- ant querist has been ‘hammered’ by the l met with a question which he or his com- panion could not solve, and if he could not without risk of detection pull out a book from his well-stored pocket, he went outâ€" doors te some secluded place. After a while he returns ‘ well-primed: and takes his seat with the greatest complacency. not even noticed by the watchful and Ivory examiners. And this is called an examination! These are no imaginary things, but facts which can be snbstantr ated by the testimony of persons whose veracity is uniinpeachable. I belieVe. that there are many whose conscience and sense of.h0neriweuld not allow them to use unfair or dishonorable means. They would scorn to hold certificates which their own abilities and attainments did not fairly win. But it is Well known that there are others who are unscrupulous in the means used to gain an ohjeet.â€"â€" For this reason the examinations should he conducted III a most stringent manner. As they are carried on new, great injustice is done to the there honorable and worthy candidate. l‘lis honesty places him be- low his less scrupulous confreer, where his abilities and attainments would place him for above them. The examiners may say that there is no remedy for this state of things. i ansvver that there is. l be- lieve that. at Newmarkct things were done quite diflm'eritly. Only one was allowed to sit at each desk. Ne communication be- twrren teachers or running out to consult books was permitted. But it will be said that this management could not be car- ried out on the Hill, as there was not enough room. But room should be got. If the two school rooms were not large enough. another should be procured.â€" There was a sufficient number of examin- ers to attend to them. Even ifthis was not done something else might be deiic which would, at least, check the evil complained of. . First and second class candidates might be seated together. If this were done there could be no copying. In former years, I think, that the same papers were not given to those who sat at the same desk. This year even this simple measure was not attended to.â€"~â€" [ do hope that in all future examinations the Board will be more careful and strict in discharging the responsible duties that devolve upon it. The time has come when the profession should be purgedâ€"â€" There are plenty worthy menâ€"men of ability and high scholarly attainmentsâ€"â€" to attend to the important duties of cdu~ eating the youth of Canadaâ€" of educating our future statesmen and ministers, with- out licensing unqualified persons.
