Among the first are the Valdimir, Bessa- rabia, and Gromnostetz, which were re- markable for their power and the range of their guns. _ In all one hundred and three sail mount- ing 2200 guns all gone to pot! (> The English are casting shells for the Crimea three feet through, and weigh- ing atoneach. Mr. Nasmyth, the great founder, is also casting guns which, with their carriages, will weigh fifty tons each. They require 225 pounds of powder for a charge, and will tlirow one of these im- mense balls of a ton weight, four miles. (> On the night of Sunday last a man named William Ewers, living at Gravesend, was engaged in a dispute with a woman with whom he cohabited, and being at high words, expressed a wish "that God would strike him dumb," if he was not correct. At the moment his speech failed him, and up tothe present time he has not been - able to speak a word. Beyond the §loss of speech he is in no way affected, either by paralysis or epilepsy, so that there appears no physical cause for the impediment.-- Woolwich Independant. en <--> Ea Emigration to Canada increasing, while to the United States it is decreasing, The annual returns of the emigration into Canada during the past year have just been published, and show a large increase, the total from the United Kingdom and the con- linent of Europe having been 53,183 against 36,699 in 1853. Theaverage length of the passage from the United Kingdom was forty- seven days, and from continental ports fifty- eight days. By the steamers from Liver- pool it was sixteen days. Since 1851, the emigration from Trelaniito Canada has shown a great excess of females over males, the result, probably, of men who have succeeded well in the colony having sent remittances for their female relatives to join them. Last year the excess was 2,209 women, being double that of the previous year. 'Three vessels were lost during the season, but without any sacrifice of life. Scarcely any complaints were made of in- fringements of the Passenger Act, but some defects of that act were rendered apparent, which call for remedy. The chief of these is the system of issuing the provisions in an uncooked state, the struggle for the use of the stoves leading esac' and oppression on the part of th ong over the weak and timid. Of the total 53,183 immigrants, 35,132 were of British origin, the remaining 18,051 being foreigners. Of these 14,000 British and 8,000 foreigners passed through to the United States, andthe number that remained as permanent settlers in Canada was therefore 31,183. In addition there was an accession of 7,000 or 8,000 to the po- pulation of the Provinces by persons ar- riving from the United States. The disposition to settle permanently in Canada is stated to have been stronger than at any former period. This is attributed partly to the depressed condition of business in the United States and partly to the effects of the Know-Nothing movements against foreginers. A body of fifty or sixty Nor- wegians, who have settled near Sherbrooke, are regarded as very valuable colonists, and a strong hope is entertained that they may be the means of attracting further arrivals.-- London Times, August 24. aan oe ie A Fact not Generally Known. The New York Central Railrcad Com- pany have a large store, at Rochester, N.

We are told an accumulation of tons in weight of such goods is already on hand. New Yorks, Oct. 8, 1855. A letter in the Zrzbune, from New Orleans, states that active efforts have been made in that region to enlist troops for the Walker |: and Kinney expedition. Several wealthy planters have subscribed large sums, and others have agreed to emigrate there with their slaves. The funds guaranteed al- ready to Kinney, it is said, amount to over $5,000,000.
