In the reign of Gueen Anne, Jon Campbell, Duke of Argyle, Was & Kawltol the Most Ancient Order of the Thistle; his grace quitted order on being created @ Knigit of ihe the Most Noble Order of tie Garter, The ejtry on that oceasion was “Jolin Campbeil, Duke of Argyie and Greenwich.” Jolin Campbell, Duke of Arcyle and Greenwich, on the 3d of June, 1725. was appointed, during pleasure, a Master General of the Ordnance, Tals was at that time a very important office o: trast and patronay In 1701 the lst of peers of Scotland includes Ar bald Campbeil, Eari of Argyle; Lord lnverary, Mull, Morvern and lyre, Viscouat Locharve and Glenlsta, Earl of Caiupbell and Cowal, Marquis of Lorne and Kingtyre and Duke of Argyle, with remainder to bis Mmal- heirs whatever. In liu Lord Archibald Camp. bell (second son to the Dake of Argyle), Lord Orin- say. Denoon and Arrois, Viscount and Earl of Islay daiterwards Duke of Argyle), extinct in 1761. In the lung-past days of Pope Innocent IIL, whose exertions tn the cause of Cur.stiantty took Various forms, there Wy a plain, honest bishop, of the name of Jolv Seo.t, who, in the year 1200, was pre- sented to the bi hopric of Dunkeld, who, by his elo- —- and diligence, secured at once the approba- tion vl the peop e and the archbishop, Taking = Vautage of bis iniuenuce and popularity, he cons 4 r sulted wiih some zealous frieads, who were equally With himself devoted to the work of the ministry, 60 a5 to remove any cause of Jealousy. At the proper time the Rev, Mr. Seott prepared a memorial, Which he presen ‘o his Holiness, setting forth. that it wou'd be necessary to erect, either In con- junction wiih or separate from the jurisdiction of unkeld, & God sic a or new bishopric, separating the district of Dunked from Argyle. The Pope, a3 ‘Was expected. regarded the proposal of tne pious and ‘thy prelate and granted the prayer of te petiiion, so that Argyle became a sepa- Tate see, Witt 1@ of the neighboring isles, such as Lesmore, attache !, aud which were visited pe Tiodically by boat, 1adeed, it was very soon selected a@s headquarters and permament residence of the ew bishov, It was several years betore the dis- junction granted took place, when John of Leicester ‘Was Arciideacon of Lothian. ‘The Dunkeld jurisdic- tion did not sujer by the arrangement; it Was for- Aunate in securing & succession of good men. In 1214 Hugh de Sivillo became Bishop of Dunkeld, and story has writveu is character—“a charitablé and juman man.’ ‘Then, ad since, he has come down ‘To posterity as “the pour man’s bishop,” go that in 2214, as in 1870, there were bishops who eared for their ‘cure of souls (and from the Foes, of the ttle it must be presumed so jor their vodny and secular wants.) ‘ne church was named after St. fMolocus, who. lived about che middie of the tweirh century his bones are paid to rest in som: part of the edifice, wich we gure ig with careful tradition pointed out, and which orne and Louise wiil, DO doubt, visit, for a sombre, Fetlective lessou, so much fu unison with the re ey and atfctionate demeanor of their youthful jives, hallowed by the example of a royal mother, ‘Who oiten repairs to Frogmore to reflect on the Secluded rematus of the great and good.

A Forecast by Thackeray. ‘In an occastonal note the Pull Mall Gazette quotesa assage from Taackeray’s writings which will be ad With Interest in the light of recent and present events:—"Sa'il amoug the prophets,” 1t says, could hardly pe regarded as @ greater phenomenon than ‘Thackeray in the company of Caumming and Zadkiel. Yet the humorist 1s not without claim to second Right, and in tno pisture which he drew twenty years ago of *Bugland in 1869,” he foretold with an accuracy which only just missed the mark, the event whica forms now the chief topic of conversation in soviety. Writing at a time when the allied houses of Russell, Grey and Elliott were redominant, his forecast is naturally a little in- uenced by that iact; but in other respects it 13 ‘wonderfully correct:—We have heard in the very highest quarters rumors which give us the sincer- est delight. We have heard it stated that the august Mother and father of a numerous and illustrious Face, Whose incr’ase 1s dear to the heart of every riton, have determined no longer to seek for Ger- an alliances for their exalted children, but to look at home tor establishments for those so dear to them. More would be at present premature. We are not at liberty to inention particulars, but it is whis- pered that her Royal Highness the Princess Boadi- cea iy about to coufer her royal hand (upon.

The Londen News say: Marriage are such chara ciety that they probably went on within the walls of slarving Metz, and we Kaow they are going on with- tu the walls of beleaguered Paris. There is, how- ever, a certain detinst relation between the number ‘of marriages and the prosperity of the people, Even Fuglishmen and women, a3 a rule, only marry Qhen they have something to marry on, and 1n hard times they put off their weddings till they re better of. uring the long depression of commeice the marriages aeclined, and it is oue proof of reviving trade tnat during the Spring of this year the number of marriages rose ‘as nearly as possible to the usual average. During the quarter ending Suh June there were neariy 10,000 more persous Inarried than in the first months ‘of the year, The aumber of weddings in April, May ‘and June was 45,491—an average of @ little more than 500 a day. Five hundred marriages a day, ghough they ure scattered over the whole surface of ‘Engian, gives us a tolerably large aggregate of Bose happiness and comfort, Five hundred new ousenolus set up every day gives asa vivid sense if the increas: ul the nation.

The Pope’s Horses. The Pope has sold off his horses. ‘This event has inspired the correspendent of the ‘Westininster Gazecve, 1n the Eternal City, to pen the following :—"I can hardly bring myself to believe it.

From the Pall Mall Gazette, Oct. 13.] Mr, Henry Bessemer, whose name ta identified With the process of steel manufacture, has conceived the idea of strengthening our defences by an “aux- lary steam army,” which would have at teast this recommenation for the economists—tat it would Cost comparatively littie to create, could be cheaply worked in time of war, and during peace would re- quire neither rattons, clothes nor pay. His lea is to havea steam fire engine throwing a shower of bullets instead of water. A steain fire engine can throw 18134 pounds—representing 2,540 Enileld ride buileis—vo a Vert cal heightof ono mile every min- ‘ute, with a consumpt.on of adoat five pounds of coal and Unvee galions of water, These bulieis would not require to be made up into cartridges. are ind :struc- tble either by rain in the open feild or damp to cel- lars, aud can be easily conveyed without fear of ex- piosion, An increase in the weight of the projectile Would increase both its range and force, and \Woe ounce bullets might be used for long range, being Prupoticd at the rate of 1,000 aminuie, A macuine with three parallel barrels couid throw two-ounce shot at long rears from the ceatre burrel, aad one- ounce shot (2,000 a minute) at short range from the side barrels, “Wo certainly have,” says Mr. Besse- mer, ‘in the sieain fire engine irretragable proof of great projectile power, wilh steam Of only 150 pounds pressure. Sucn steam would rush into the atmosphere at a ve ocity exceeding 1,900 feet per second. Now, a two-ounce lead ball presents & transverse area of .6 of a square inca, and conse- queatly steanr of 150 pounds pressure would impin: On it With a force equal to 90 pounas. As the weight of the bali 13 only two ounces we have & power equal to 720 times the work to be performed.

Mr, Bessemer turther sugges.3 a tain steel maauet in frout of tho maciine, to protect ib aud tne gunner from the enemy's fire; “universal motion” for the delivery tube, which could be directed on @1 sides as Pusily as tho jet ofa fire engine; and the combination of tis system with that of the Edinburg traction engine; which if nited 83 a bullet-throwing machine would not only travel over tie common road without horses, but would find its way over very rough ground, would conve: Stores of any Kind to other machines, aud, m addi- tion to its own fuel and water, would c rry 100,000 bullets tor its own use. Mr, Bessemer, with prudeat patriotism, reserves the details of the apparatus ior (he consideration of our military autsoriues. TORPEDO EXPERIMENTS IN ENGLAND, Some very linportant torpedo experiments were carried out, a few days Since, at the Schoul of Mil. tary Enyineeriag, in Eogiand, under the immediate supervision of his Royal Highaess the Duke of Cambridge, Field Marshal Com nanding-in-Ciief, Un the arrival of bis Royal Highness at Chatham ved by & guard of nouor, consisting of the band and inen of the S Welaa Pusu proceeded to, 10. ceived by W. Chumberiai, 0 intendent, wey were embarked on board the Mo: key, Master Commanier W, Biakey, and the Bustle steam teaders, which conveyed them down the rly Lo the Volta, @ vessei moored in the river, and used as a torpedo school, the Visitors gong 0a board, Immediately they were on board two small charges of gun cotton were exploged on shore—oue by means of a detonating fuse and the other by heat, The object of these being fired was to that gun cotion in its orginal state 1s perfectly harmless, but that when detonated it 18 very desirac- tive. Tae one exploded by a fuse went vit with a very sharp repori, although only a very so was used; but that exploded by heat 1m in a biaze, there was no report at al and no danger. A torpedo of ten pounds of gun cotton was then exploded, throwing up a large quanuty of water, But the principal expermment was with a torpedo containing 432 pounds of gun cotton (equal to cond Battalion Royal 1 party at once hey were re- Fhe aistinguis' yard, whi 1,296 pouuds of gunpowder), This was movored about 200 yards away from the vessel, and was surrounded by seven other tor- pedoes, the object being to see Whetuer such a large one exploding would cause the explosiun of those surrounding it, the opinion of the onivers being that it would not affect the others. The torpedo was ex- ploded from the Volta by means of electricity. The quantity of water throwa into the air was s»mething immense, the expiosion regularly suaking the ves- sel, altuough moored such @ distance away. Tne explosion bore out the opinion of the officers, Tue remainder of the torpedoes remained iniact, not one being injured. ‘the company then embarked in some small boats aud were conveyed to Gilingham bridges, where they were diseinbarked and pro- ceeded to the Royal Engineer field works. Here an experiment was made with @ charge of eighty ounds of gun cetton. The stockade was formed of imbers fourteen inches thick, there being two rows about two feet apart. On the explosion taking place a clean breach was made in the first row of timbers and wie timbers in tho other row were shattered, but the breach was not so cleanly made, With very litte trouble apne could have been made through this for a fleid gun and men walkiag four abreast. This experimeut, with the othera made, Was cousidered to have been very suc- cesstul. The party then witnessed a siege gun—a sixty. Tour pounder, weighing 61 cwt,—drawn about the works, bot tp ana down hill, by the “Roval Sap- per,” steam traction engine, This engine, although a sali one, dragged the :yun 1a aimost ail directions, tarping almost to its own length. It is thought that 1m future warfare, where siczeg take place, engines sunilar to this will be employed in placing guns in positicn, Instead of horses, The party also saw some Operations carried out by some men of the Royal ogineers with & newand very small spade, by means of which @ mau Is enabled to throw up sufil- cient earth to form a covering for himself in three minutes, and it is thoazht that before long a similar spade will be carried by all infantry soldiers. The visitors then proceeded to the Great Lines, where they witnessed some experiments with miniature torpedoes tn firing by observation and judginent, MISCELLANEOUS FOREIGN ITEMS. M.

WALL STRBET, } SuNpay, Nov, 201970. THE GENRRAL TRADE OF THE CITY during the past week was active and satisfactory to | the wheat and cotton dealers, the contingencies of an extensive European wur creating a demand at Liverpool which gave the exporters full lines of or- ders, the execution of which was rendered more easy by the advance tn gold and foreign exchange. The cotton market was regular until toward whe close, when the marked decrease im the receipts at | the home ports and tue large shipments of the week, | combined witi the more peace‘ul tenor of European advices, rendered it firm, In the dry goods trade there ls continued compiatnt of duiness, the unsea- sonable fineness of the weather checking busl- ness in woellens and heavy dry goods, while the public taste = seems = undergoing = @ change in the matter of foreign goods which has left the importers with heavy stocks on their shelves, Whether this fickleness be the result Of fashion, economy or ocher influence, fine goods of the style now un hand do vot go off so well as was anticipated, What business has been done, hows ever, was cautious, and the wholesale dealers report | their country collections unusually prompt. Up | town trade ts good, but the recatiers are anxious for cold snap in order to precipitate activity. THE GOLD MARKET, In financial circles the specutative feeling nas found most exercise in the Gold Room, owing to the fresh complications in Europe. Great disappoint- ment was experienced, however. tn the compara. tively narrow fuctuattoas ta the price of gold, che remembrance of iast summer's movement in the precious metal being still tuo fresh to tempt operas tors to hold for a heavy rise, not to speak of the normal influences which at this time are adverse to a high price for gold. Hence while the dealings were very large, the clearances one day amounting to nearly $120,000,000, operators were content with @ small profit. The extremes of the week were 110% and 1134;—the latter pone being attained when it seemed moraily certain that the Gor.chakolf-Granville correspondence would lead to war between Russia and Engiand, ‘he excitément | was a8 great almost as tf war had been actually de- clared, 80 that such an emergency seems to have beew almost fully discounted in the price of gold at 11334. The comparatively small rise is due to a wholesome apprehension of the inter- ference of causes which, without the present dis turbance abroad, would incline gold to a point sev- eral per cent below 110. Lhese are, briefly, the hignly Satisfactory condition of our foreign trade, which, according to the statistics of the Bureau at Wash- ington, left us on the 1st of Sepvember with the small balance of only $9,750,000 against us; the continued disbursement of the November loterest on the public debt; the approach of Jauuary 1, wuen a further in- stalment of nearly $38,000,000 coin interest 1s com- ing out of the Treasury, and the heavy exports of Wheat and cotton, Indeed, as the war in Burope has closed to us the sources if not the supply of many foreign goods which entered largely mito our | imports, and asthe ensuing six weeks are in tho height of our exporting season, it would not be at all surprising if on tho ist of Decem- ber next w shall have exported more than we imported during the year which will then close, Under these circumstances gold at present prices is far from being cheap, particniarly if peace in Europe remove the danger of any sudden return of our five-twenties. THE STOCK MARKET, The feature of the week's movement at the Stock Exchange was a sudden decline of one and a hall to two per cent in the acttve list, following the expec- tation of @ probable war betweea Russia and Engiand. As far as it was possible to discover, this decline was the result rather of specn- lative sales than of any general change in the feel- ings of the holders of stocks, the situation of the money market being such as to encourage a reten- tion of investments. In fact, the fuancial situation 1s without the least cause of alarm. The banks were seldom in so strong a position. Last night at the close of business they held not only the reserve required by law, but nearly $14,000,000 in addition, so that if necessity required they could expand their loans to the extent of over $50,000,000, As to the disturbance which would be bronght about by actual hostilities between Russia and England, it would be but a tem- porary flurry. Indeed, some of the railway officials have been heard to express a wish that war would take piace, for it would swell the fretght earnings of their lines. The Crimean war began in October, 1854— @ season ef the year when money {fs usually very stringent, and as in those days gold was the only re- serve which the banks couid hold, and as the war at first took large quantities of specie to Europe, the banks were compelied to contract heavily, Note withstanding these adverse circumstances stocks fell off aw average of only five to six per centin the interval to December 30, 1854, Here, however, the current suddenly turned, and a sharp rise en- sued, New York Central and Reading rising nearly 20 per cent. A better parallel is to be found, however, in the Anstro-Prussian war of 1866, when, a3 now, specie payments were sus- pended and the banks used legal tenders as a re- serve, and gold was simply a commodity for ex- port, like cotton or wheat. The difference was tnat im 1854-55 the gold coin of the country—the basis of banking—was liabie to sudden diminution, while in 1866 tho real reserve of the banks— ‘the $350,000,009 legal tender currency—is not in tne least Hable to contraction by deportation to Europe, In 1866 stocks steadily advanced and, during the three months the war lasted, rose about 10 per cent, The normal fluctuation in stocks, witha war between Russia and Englana, should therefore be to higher prices, even if we had not passed the season of tight money which appears to have been the only | Western Union % Western Union, 425% a 42%; Quicksilver, 4 a6; Mariposa, 63 a 13; do. preferred, 104 & 105;; Boston Water Power, 18 bid; Adams Express (ex div.), 655% @ 653g; Wells-Fargo Express, 34; do. serip, 25¢ a 2%; American Express, 46) a 40%; ‘United States Express, 3534; Pactile Mail, 41¢ a 41s; New York Central, consolidated, 923, & 924; do., Scrip, 86% & 86%; Erie, 22i¢ @ 22%; Hariem, lla 131%; Reading, 100% a 101; Michigan Central, 120% 1214; Lake shore, 9254 a 92%; Union Paettlc, 2397 & 23); Mlinois Central, 135; Cleveland and Pitts. 1, 10 is burg, 105% a 10634; Chicago and Northwestern, 7324 | }% 10¢e;,a 1 7); do. preferred, 839% a 884%; Cleveland, Colam- | fining g bus, Cincinuatt and ndianapoils, 80; New Jersey Central, 103 a 103%: Rock Island, 1117¢ @ 112; Mil- waukee and St. Paul, 694 a 60%; do. prelerred, 80% 8 80%; Toledo, Wabash and Western, 6145 @ 1%; do, preferred, 73 a 76; Fort Wayne, 934; @ 9135; Chl- cago and Alton, 1144 114%); do. preferred, 116% bid; Ohio and Mississippi, 3134 a 31%; St. Louis and Iron Mountain, 46 a 47; De aware, Lackawanna and Western, 109 a 10914; Morris and Essex, 91 a 91 Boston, Hartford aad Erie, 3% a 8%; Hannibal and St. Joseph, 105 @ 10514; do, praterred, 11344 a 11314; Columbus, Chicago and indiana Central, 183 a 13 THE FINAL STREET QUOTATIONS, The following quotations were made on the street subsequent to the closing of the Long Room:—~ ‘graph, 42% a 43; Pacific Mall, 414 & 415s; Now York Central consolidated, 9174 @ 99; do. svrip, 86% a 85%; Erie, ‘eo Reading, 1007, a 101; Lake Shore, 92% a Northwestern, 78% a 79; do. 88%; Rock Island, 1115 a 1117, do, preferred, 4 & 80%; Wabash, 611g Ohio and Mississippi, 31% 4 314%; Boston, Hartford and Erie, 3% LATEST PRICES OF GOVERNMENTS, The following were the final street quota- tions for government bonds:—United States Currenoy sixes, 111 a 111%; do, 1881, regis- tered, 11345 a 113%; do. do., coupon, 113% a 11334; do. tive-twenties, registered, May and No- vember, 107 a 1074; do. do., 1862, coupon, do., 107% & 107%; do. do., 1864, do, do., 107 a 107 do. da., 1885, do. do, bi & 107%; do. do, registered, January and July, 10044 a 109%; Co, de, 1865, cou- pon, Ao., 10044 @ 109%; do. do., 1507, do. do, 10994 a 10944; do, do, 1863, @ 109% a 109%; do, ten-forties, registered, 1 @ 10654; do. do., coupon, 10634 @ 10834, THE cov % HG 2 92 2 OF THE GOLD MARKE!

The inference that the de- cline last week was the result of speculative sales 1s thus strongly confirmed. To analyze the position more closely, we are situated now as we were just before the Austro-Prussian war broke out, or as we were at the beginning of the year 1855, m the Crimean war, when, the stringency in money cor- rected or overcome, stocks took their rise of 10 to 20 per © THE GOVERNMENT BOND MARKET, ‘The government list was unfavorably affected by the decline of five-twenties in London, the de pression being all the greater that gold remained so stallonary—a condition of things that invited a speculation in the transfer of bonds from the Lon- don to the New York market, The peaceful aspect of affairs at the end of the week suddenly checked the decline, however, and the market closed strong at a sharp improvement. THE MONEY MAREET. The agitation produced by the European compli- cations was made the pretext of more activity in money, but the rate on call, except in a few rare in- stances, did not ran up above six per cent, while the general business of the week was at five and six per cent. On government collaterals the rate was steadily four to five per cent, with exceptions on Saturday to the large government dealers at three per cent. Discounts were steady at 7 a8 percent for prime names, which were scarce and in request, Foreign exchange was firmer, the leading drawers advancing their rates through apprehensions as to the eventualities in Europe.

Ww. ERN CATHOLIC, ARREST OF A NOTORICU3 FORGER. Particulars of His Nefarious Exploits. {From the Indianapolis Journal, Nov. 18.) On last Friday mght oficers Russell and Board- man brought to this city from Louisville the person of John M. Kills on @ requisition from Governor he having been indicted by the Grand Jury for obtaining money under false pretenses. The his- torv of tho man ts a very singular and rather “rapid” one and will be interesting reading. The following is taken from slips of paper he iad with him at the time of his capiare:— Jonn M. Kills, the first Known of him, was a resi. dent of Springfield, Ohio, where he joined an Oluo regiment and was made captain of the company. Tue Fogitaent was sent to Nashville, where he was detailed as quartermaster. While at this point he committed forgeries of government vouchers tu the amount of nearly $70,000 daring the winter of 1362 and 1863, The papers were ail simned ‘John M. Killa, First Lieutenant Tairty-first Ohio Volunteer infantry and Acting Assistant Quartermaster,” with the forged approval of General A. Schoeit, ‘There ts good reason to believe that frauds to the amount of $150,009 in Chicago ani $50,000 1u New York were fcommitied by paruies with whom Kills was In connection, and hls Chicago partuer is now enjoying a brief yerplte in the feuureaiary as a re- ward for his enterprise In that line. After the frauds were discovered Kills was brought before Judge Trigg, of Nashville, who, after hearing only the prisoner’s statement to the effect that he was the tool of another sharper, sentenced him to one year’s imprisonment in the Penitentiary, This light sentence puzzied every ove, bul even that Was not served out, t actof Andrew Johu- 800, on the 3d of March, 186¥, was to pardon hin After Kills was pardoned he laid around Nashville a while, and then went to Loulsviile, where, on the night of bis arrival, he alsunguished himself. in company With & boon companion and two frail sis- ters of the Fails City he visited the Academy of Music, The party made such a disturbance thal the police had to be called, Kills drew his pistol on one of them, but the oficer fired first, hitting Kills in the hand, the ball passing through the hand, strl- King a rib, whica tt followed around to the spine. Jn a tew days he was able to leave that piace, wiich he did witi alacrity, The next account we have of him ts in this city, in his old business of swindling. The particular job that brought bin to gref was swindiing W. W. Leathers out of $100 by swearing that he was pos- sessed of unlimited land im lowa. He skipped out to Lounsville again, that place sesining to have @ fas- cination for him, where he was captured by ofilcers Russell and Boardman, as above mentioned. In his possession were found from $30,000 to $50,000 of the lorged vouchers spoken of, or proba- bly others, @ vast number of deeds and mortgages to property, all filled save the mame, and abstract of titles, These, it is supposed, are his ready aids in the art of swindling. An envelope was found, marked “Private John M, Kills, November 4, '70,”) This contained cuttings from papers noticing his different acts and portions of his history. He stated that he would die before giving 1% up, but madew slight mistake in the assertion, A EAT MARRIAGES AND DEATHS. Married.
