[From Beli’s Life in Landon.} In Witkes’ Spirit of the Times announc: John C. Heevap to America we fiod ‘the editor, are deliberately pisee bi erties that Heenan tied etn 0 was permitted to go from our shores without a belt, and secoudiy without the Ea- glish testimonials which bo had boen offered. Oa these points we have only to say, firstly, tha: if Hoenan did not his belt, Sayers was in’no better predicament. Mr. iikes knows as well as we do, if not better (for the sug: gestion was his own), that ‘the arrangement between ers and Heenan was, that if Sayers would raise fcription among his friends to present Heeaan wil belt, Heenan would perform a similar office for Sayera. ‘This arrangement was not carried out atrictly, for the following reasons:—Directly it besame known to certain gentiemen connected with an American circus that the men had amicably settle! their differences, an applica- tion was made by them to Sayersand Jeenan toenter into an See with them at £250 a week, each to appear at the Alhambra aud else where with tacir new belts. An Application was made to us to get the belts made at once, the return of ‘statemaats by | abd, thanks to the exertions of Mr. Huncook, they were mavvfactured with marvellous Fapidity. They were pre- fented, a8 our readers know, at the Alhambra: but Sayers and Heenan not having raised sufliciont to pay for them, Mr. Morris, one of the speculators. advanced the balance for that purpose. The public, finding the belte had been resented, pitura'ly conelyded that the suscriptions had made up, and no more money was forthcoming on either side, Mr. Morris retained the belts in his own pos- sctrion, and as Heena and Sayers bow refased to carry out thelr engagement by paying the diference themselves, why tho belts etill remain with Morris. Secondly, as ts the testimonials: Heenan’s o»n letters, which were pab Ushed in this country, Ez. that he refused to accept them when offered; and besides this, be insisted on going bome when he did, refusing many liberal offers in this country, 4 have insured him silver com. pliments, as Mr. Wilkes styles them, of almost equal value with those of Sayers. Mr. Wilkes goes on the English people because Heenan was ed to strangle Sayers on the ropes, and uses ad captandem arguments (to prove that Heonaa fairly won the fight) which may go dowa with those for | whom he writes in big own country, bat which every im- partial man who saw the battle will regard with coa- tempt. It is not our intention to go furthor into the mat ter; and we should not have made the above remarks hat ‘we not deemed the statement in the Spirit too bareficed to be pasted over. Our belief is patent to the world, and nothing will iodnce us to deviate from it, that at the finish of the Oght at Farnborough, had the not berg broken into, Sayers would have’ proved the victor, as, bad the referce not been foresd from the ring side during the thirty seventh round, he would, according to the rules ring, have ordered’ the men to be separated whea ‘on the ropes, when it was seen that Sayers was io danger. That Aeonan afterwards struck Sayece foal i# well Known, fas is the fact that that worthy, afew miautes after vis Dattle, was quite blind, notwithstanding the certificate of | Dr (7) Rawlings to the contrary. As to to the severity of the punishment on cither side, the frct of Heenan’s not being able to make his appearance fora week speaks | volumes. je lligence.

The Prospects of @ Union Between the Two Wings of the Virginia Democracy Growing Dim—Strange Intimation, as to the policy of the Opposition—A Fatai Mistaise om the Part of the Two Wings of the Democracy—Your Genoa Correspondent and Dr. Warwick, of this city, who Join- ed the Army of Garibaldi— Who is Dr, Warwick? —The Attendance of the Forthcoming Conventions, éc. Bince my last letter I have carefully canvassed the prospects of a union between the Douglas and Breckin- ridge wings of the democracy of this State at the next conventions, and I find thatevery hour but serves to widen the breach. Criminations and recriminations are constantly indulged in by both sides, which can have mo other effect than to diminish, if uot render bopelews, all prospects of a coalition, The Breckiaridge mea charge the Dougias men with being abolitionists; and this neces- sarily provokes fecling of reseutment not at all compati- ble with a union of the two forces. This is especially the case in this city, where contact betweea both wings is now frequent; and it is apprehended that the leading Douglas men here—when they enter the Convention at ‘Staunton and explain to their brethren of the country, who are happily too far apart to be disturbed by ex- citing discussions—will win over the sympathies of that class, and thus render the prospects of a uvion utterly hopeless. If these disturbing influences did not arise here but little difficulty would exist in the way of a cow ition, 60 far ag the honest, sturdy yeomen of the country districts are concerned. But 60 bitter bas this mutual hostility become that it is to be feared the Dougias men, who pretend to be the aggrieved party, will not consent Of simultaneous setting aside of Douglas and Breckia- ridge, and the nomination of a new candidate—a policy to which I reterred in my last letter as being ia serious contemplation by members of both factivas. Richmond has «! been esicemed the great political focua of the State. years her. politicians have given out the law to the emall fry politicians of the iaterior; and @ willing obediense was always extended. A perfect organization and effective auion of both parties—the democracy ia —was the result. There are now, however, growing up in Richmond, #0 maay would-bs leaders, that to make ‘of aay principic or policy without holding counsei wilh them, would be to aplit up the leaders—for all are leaders—iito (ty frag- ments, The strong minded, jadiious farmers of tie State, seeiag this, are now beg ning to jaige for thea. selves, and het accord ‘Aud tueir Opiaions aad ac: tion, whenever they have exercised them, have ¥oldom of heyer been found at faail, L baee i baat la the couilict Bow being waged by the pigmy dea 4 ot Rieu mond they will act wita characteristic prudence, aud, ot may be, eet matt right aguiu Jn dwag 50 Lehould pot’ be surprised if tuey ignored every sux ces- aon &ué every plan that may emaaate from Bicacwad.

And if the friends of the two Presi- ential candidates still continued divided, each section, according to Mayor Wooa’s plan, would ultimately vote for the candidate having most streogta there, seeing that by forcing the election oto the House, and with bot ove candidate for the Vice Presidency in the field, his election by the Senate would be inevitable. Tas, however, is predicated upon the presumption that the House would Rot elect, and it i8 @ presumption which few seem to doabt, Besides, the evctional taflcences, mow ©) tho- roughly established by the tickets us they are constituted, would be in a t measure reinoved if there was Gut oae candidate forthe Vice Presidency in the fel ‘The an- tagonism now engendering would be materially dimiaish- ed, and all would ultimately suape their policy witu refe- rence to, the success of thit one candidate whose very Ponition of isolation amid the contests waged between the other two would attract attention, and point to him as the common centre of hope. As the democratic party uow stands, there are two on ea ch side, aad the motto of each seems to be, “a fair fight and no compromise.” In the Heeatp of the 11th inst , the following allucion to a gentleman from this city appared in the letter of Your Genoa correspondent :-— Two or three days ago there arrived here a varm- hearted young Virginiau, Dr. Warwick, from Richmond. He applied to the Committee for au appoimtment as éur- goon, Saying—‘'1 wish this appointment because | thiok by it I can do more good; but place me anywhere. If you do not I will get my and fight on my o#n hook, for to fight or poyele in this war I ain determined.” ‘This gentleman is a son of Mr. Corvin Warwick, of this city, and nephew of Mr. Abraham Warwick, principal of the milling firm of Warwick & Barksdale, who own the largest fl vr mi!l ta the wortd.

Bouillounés, gauffered trimmiags aad ruches, aotwith- — that they harbor the dust, are still iu vogue. The bodies of thin dresses are generally made low, either fal) & la vierge, or quite plain. With full bodies a cheai- setic of tulle or muslin is generally worn, trimmed round the throat wilh narrow black veivet. This chemisetee, however, is equal'y pretty with a piain body, particularly when there is a small berthe trimmed to match the flounces.
