NEWS OE THE DAT. -Gold closed yesterday at 13al3?. -Ip New York cotton closed irregular and celina"; u?linds 15]c; sales 140Q bales. -In Liverpool cotton closed llat and irreg? ular; uplands 9jd, Orleans lOd; sales 10,000 bales. -Cotton is grown in California, and makes a good yield, and is said to be a profitable crop. -The Secretary of War has directed the cc inman ling officers to give such aid to '.he Wisconsin sufferers as they deem advisable. -Real estate dealers In New York say the Chicago disaster has unfavorably affected that branch of business, owing to the diversion ol so much capital westward. The number of | dwelling-houbcs to let and for sale has largely Increased within the few days past, and rents are undergoing a noticeable reduction. -The Chicago Typographical Union has ad. dressed a circular to its brethren ot the craft in which it says: "We want Immediate pecu? niary relief-all you can spare." The subordi? nate unions of Washington, D. C., Cine..mali Kansas and New York are already reported as. . having responded. -The United States Commis.._ner at Wil? mington, N. C., has decided in a case under the civil rights bill, where colored men pros ecuted a saloon keeper for refusing to sell liquor that the complainants could not pur? chase without a contract to that effect, and that it was impossible to compel any person to dispose of any property without his consent. -The Legislatures of Alabama and Missis? sippi have chartered a sblp canal from Mern? illa to M?lme, which wilt be 456 miles long, and make a route 344 miles shorter than the river distance to New Orleans, and bring Mem? phis 1600 mites nearer to Liverpool than by the mouth of the Mississippi. The completion of the canal ls, however, problematical. -The joint committee of the two houses of | the Episcopal General Conven!lon to deter? mine whether any changes are required in the ritual ot the church embraces soue of the ablest representatives, of both high church and low church views. The high churchmen are well represented by Bishop Whittingham, of Maryland; Rev. Dr. Halght, of New York, and Wm. Welsh, Esq., or Philadelphia; and the Evangelicals by Bishop Coze, of Western New York; Assistant Bishop Bedell, of Ohio, and others. -The Chicago calamity absorbed public at? tention last week to such an extent that the returns from the important State elections, held daring the week, almost passed without notice. Returns are not jet complete, but those already received show Republican ma? jorities of 40,000 in Iowa, 16,000 in Pennsylva? nia, and 22,000 in Ohio. In the latter State the Senate is reported to be a tie, while in the house the Republicans have thirteen majority. ID California, full returns give Booth (Rep.) 5068 majority for Governor. -It is represented that the daring and wily Bismarck holds at present the mercantile exis? tence of England in his hands, the result of having humbled Prance In the dust. No less a Bom than twenty-five millions sterling ls now in his possession in the shape of bills drawn by French on English capitalists, and should he Ihlnk of presenttffjf ihem and converting them into gold, all the specie in the Bank ol Eng? land would not suffice, as lt possesses little m ne than twenty-one millions in all." The di? rectors of that institution have endeavored to avert a crisis by raising the rate of discount to 'five per cent., but this will not pr?vent the ca? lamity if he chooses to insist on payment of bis bills, for they are bound to give gold tor their notes on presentation, and he could thus ren? der the establishment bankrupt In a day, or reduce to a similar condition alt whose paper he holds. -Telegraphic dispatches state that contri? butions continue to be mad'j irtall the princi? pal cities and towns, and the estimated aggre? gate oRash subscriptions in this country and Europe is now between four and ?ve mil? lions. The cash subscriptions from all sources In New York loot up over a million and a half, and half a million more, lt ls estima? ted, has been given In supplies of all kinds. The church subscriptions in tint city Sunday amounted to $17,858. The total amount raised by Brooklyn to date ls $121.400, including $25,400 collected in the churches on Sunday. The Philadelphia church? es gave $50,000. Enthusiasm lor the sufferers continues In Europe. Cable dispatches slate that the Mansion House subscription In Lon? don amounts to ?20,000 Manchester has given ?4600, Americans in Paris $50,000, and Frankfort, (Germany,) 20,000 florins. All the immediately outcomiog steamers from British and continental ports will bring over larg? supplies of clothing and money. Refugees continue to arrive in New York, Philadelphia, St. Louis, Baltimore and other cities, and prompt measures have been taken to provide for them. -Such a season cf desolation as now pre? vails throughout the Northwest has never be? fore been experienced. Chicago has sad com? pany in its misery, for all along the shore of Michigan and through the villages ol Wiscon? sin fire has swept with even more terrible and fatal effect than In the streets of the Garden City. The buming of the business portion ol Chicago, with its fine buildings and large warehouses, ls a calamity more immediately thrilling in its character; but In Wisconsin whole villages, in considerable numbers, have been absolutely annihilated, and in Michigan the whole lake shore haa be*n depopulated. The tilines lark In the wcois spring? ing out upon villages and settlements and licking them np with the sudden? ness of lightning. The immediate loss of I property in Michigan is estimated at one hun? dred millions, but the loss of lifo is even more terrible So sudden has beea the advance ol the irresistible element that Btreetsare strewn with the charred bodies of villagers vainly eu deaxo.lngto escape the flames, and families found their funeral pyre ou the threshold of their homesieads. Winter, with Its inevitable hardships, ls close at hand, and tte temporary suffering ot Chicago will be as nothing lo that of the houseless aud starving people in these distant villages unless charily ls ceaseless in its endeavors. -The properties of chloral hydrate, the re cently discovered hypnotic, have caused good deal of discussion among the medical faculty, and the question now arises whether one of its effects is to cause a man to shoot himself. In Chicago, on the morning of Octo? ber S. Hr. Barton Edsall, a partner in a promi? nent wholesale d' >g house, was found dead in his dwelling, with a pistol, supposed to he his own, Iroin which two shots had been dis? charged, lying by his side. His wife supposed that he had left his bed in pursuit ol burglars whom he had heard moving bi-low, and that he had been shot by these intruders. Experi? enced detectives assert, however, that there were no indications to be iound of burglarious entry into the building, although the door was open. Mr. Edsall had been suffering from toothache and neuralgia, and to relieve it had taken a dose of chloral hydrate, not exceeding twenty grains, the night bet?re. The theory has been advanced by some persons that the drug had produced temporary insanity, during which the deceased had shot himself, lhere being no other way to account for his wishing to end his life, if he really committed suicide. This theory finds few supporters, however, with medical men, or with the public; and the general belief in Chicago was that the case was one of murder. A watchman who heard the pistol shots directly afterward met two men coming from the direction ol Mr. Edsall's house; but as their appearance was respectable, he permitted them to pass unchallenged. Playing at Soldiers. The fall campaign in England is over, and the amateurs, as well as the professional critics, are discussing the result. They rind much to condemn aDd something to praise; but the general opinion seems to be that the English army, in its stafl" department, is unlit for active service, whatever thc pluck and muscle of men and officer?. It is better to learn these things now than on the eve of a Battle of Dorking. War is not child's play, and the patriotic volunteer who thought it awfully disgusting not to get "a wash "for four days,"' while the mimic manceuver ing progressed, will be the better able, if the crisis comes, to treat soap with disdain and to regard "boiled shirts" as au unattainable luxury. The Saturday Review ha3 careful? ly and candidly criticised the conduct of the campaigo, r.r.d its conclusions are doubt? less those of the average Englishman. The Saturday Review says it was questionable wisdom to invite severe critics like General Blumenthal to be present. It is always wise to wash dirty linen at home, and on I this occasion there were obvious reasons for obeying the prudent proverb. And the set? tled opinion of the reviewer is thal the English- army, even leaving numbers oat of the question, is "not, at the "present moment, io a flt elate to take "ibo Seid against any of the leading Eu? ropean powers, but that if we knowhow "to profit by recently gathered .experience, "it may in course of time be made fit." The army is "in urgent need o? reorganization "the military system must be entirely recast "But the tactical units, -the raw material, "are excellent" What they require is "a "more practical and intelligent training, a "better and more systematic organization.'' The Saturday Review thinks that the mil? itary system, the generals and both the com? batant and administrative staff, are all far from efficient Want of practice, the cramp? ing influence of obsolete traditions, incapac ty to recognize the recent modifications in the art of war, and want both or careful study and reflection are everywhere appar? ent. The Dake of Cambridge bas raised his reputation greatly, and the nation muy now, with confidence, .entrust to bim the task of creating an army. But as a rule the generals require instruction, instead of being fit to impart it. As lo the star! departments the Saturday Review says : "The staff labored under considerable dis? advantages, being hastily collected on the very eve of the campaign. It, for the most "part, obviously stands in great need of practical In? struction, having displayed considerable topo? graphical Ignorance, want ol power to com? bine the movements of troop9, neglect in the matter ol carrying out proper baggage arrange? ments, Ignorance of outpost duty, and inca? pacity to obtain Intelligence. On the occa? sion of the ?rsL fight of the campaign, Ste? phenson's brigade, we are told, lost Mts way, and Carey's division was late. The latter was again too late to take a substantial part in the battle which followed* two days afterwards. The marches were none of them really long, yet the number ot boure during which the troops were on their leg-i bore no proportion to the distance to be accomplished, or the movement* to be performed. AB to the bag? gage, nothing could have been worse. Owing to the want ot' staff supervision, the line of wagons was far longer than was necessary, constant blocks took place, the escort was not properly distributed, and, in addition to their proper load?, the wagons constantly carried not only arms and kuapsacks, but even effect? ive men. Au enterprising enemy could have captured or destroyed the baggage over and over again. .'As to outpost duty, ihe quartermaster gen? eral's staff is iu great measure responsible lor the ludicrous-wo can think of no more fitting term-manner lo. which It was performed, lt is. indeed, not too much to say that in the British army the knowledge ol that important I branch ol military science is In its infancy. Grand guards were in the recent campaign generally iguored, though the advanced posts were at such a distance from the main, body that support was absolutely necessary. In? fantry were posted in front of cavalry picquet*1. Infautry picquets occupied ground where cav? alry picquet? ought to have been placed, and uice versa. Cavalry videites were frequently single, often dismounted, lu ont instance seal? ed on the ground, aud, as a rule, they had their carbines slung. There was no systematic communication between the different picquets or between the latter and the main body. On one occasion, the outposts were so placed that they could see nothing but their own camp, and in many Instances a large force could have easily pierced the line before being dis? covered. Tue stall'failed conspicuously iu col? lecting Intelligence, aa was shown especially in the last day ot bailie, when absolutely Gen? eral Staveley did not :or some time know whether General Carey had succeeded in eluding him aud reaching Aldershot without a collision. Yet the two contending annies could at no lime have beeu more limn sereu miles from each other. "The control department decidedly broke down, and il is clear that its composition, or? ganization ?iud (ruining must a1, once be seen to it we wish lo 6ecuro ourselves against a repent ion ol Crimean mismanagement On the present occisi?n only inconvenience ami discontent ensued; bul had we been engaged iu real war the consequences mlghl have beeu most disastrous. As lt wan, discipline was much endangered by the failures ol' the sup? ply sub-department It is at ull times difficult io maintain discipline amongst hungry sol? dier*; but l!ie task becomes especially difficult when those hungry soldiers are Englishmen. We learn thal Cue troops were souieiimes us many a? sixteen hours without food; ihui fuel was several times not forthcoming; thal bis? cuit was latterly substituted for bread, iliou??li the latter was cheaper and more palatable than the former; that at least on one uccasioa only a half ration was served out; lhai tins of | preserved provisions winch had been objected to by ibo navy were issued lo ihe troops; and thai a lin ol bouilli, which was calculated for seven men. was given to thirteen. This bouilli, we may observe, was really little morel han soup, lhere being only two ounces of meal to every tiro ounces ot grary and vegetables. Seven ounces ol this mixture constituted one man's rut ?on. So disgusted were the troops with the lins ot preserved provisions Ulai at lea*t one regiment threw away those which were served out to lt. ll Ix idle 'lo Say that Hie control wa< for lira lirst lime tested, "and thal, nuder the circumstances, it did very well. The lepuitnieni had, for months past, been under* .oins* a complete theoretical and a partial .rat-?cil traiulng. Thc test was ol tho mild' est possible description? compared with that which was applied during the war in France to the Prussian Intendantur, which was re-1 quired to provide (br half a million of men In an enemy's cotAtry. Our control had been preparing lor the ordeal during weeks, if not months. Money was freely placed at its dis? posal. Almest the whole army service oorpe, three auxiliary artillery transport trains, and some five or six bundred hired wagons were employed. At no time was any body ol troops at a greater distance irom the common depot at Aldershot than fifteen miles; excellent roads, canals and railways abounded; the weather was itee. and no attacks by an enemy on the convoys were to be apprehended. Yet under these exceptionably favorable circumstances the control failed." As we said at the beginning, it is fortu? nate that all these failures took place in time of peace instead of during war. Hav? ing ascertained that a change is required, the war department will, in all probability, have leisure to carry it out. The English, indeed, look back upon the campaign with satisfac? tion, not because they are contented with what has been done, but because they have learnt what must be done to enable them to succeed better in future. ijostetter's Bitters.
