The Provincial Legislature of Canada, having, passed «n Act requiring all the accounts of that government to be kept in Dollars and Cents alter the ;first day of January, 1858, the following Banks have given formal notice that all Bills or Note* intended for discount or collection, and fall- ing due on and after the first day of January next, be expressed in Dollars and Cents. They have likewise given notice, that all Checks, and other Forms, in use for Banking purposes, be adapted to the Decimal System. For the Bank of Montreal—D. DAVIDSON, CasWer.

For years we have been excessively annoyed t y the, to us, everlastingly awkward currency of our Canadian neighbors, and wehail their promised advent to the common-sense regimen of dollars and cents in their monetary af- fairs, with real satisfaction. For ourselves, we shall bid farewell to pounds, shillings, pence and farthings, with spirits quite elated, and for the whole fraternity of \ sous,\ and \ penny tokens,'' innumerable in multitude, infinite in places, and abounding in all conceivable shades of small value, with which our neighbors were wont to fill onr hands, whenever we gave them pieces of sil- ver to change, we shall be ready at a moment's notice to pronounce a cheerful and long good-by. Gleanings. WANING OP MOHAMMEDISM. Again we turn and dip in the Orient It is im- possible to look long into any book of Travels among Moslems and not see numerous indications of the waning of the Crescent as a Power and a Faith. Not very remote was the time, when, throughout all the lands of the Mussulman, each morning, at that first moment before the full dawn, when \ a man could distinguish between a white thread and a black one,\ the call to prayer from the minarets' tops, would break the slum- bers of the faithful, and cause every knee to be bent Now, he hears the call, indeed, but instead of rousing from \ his half-drunken sleep, stupified with tiaxhM, he damns the Muezzin, and turns over to deeper slumber.\ This is most especially true of those living on the great thoroughfares of travel, or adjacent to the English possessions in the East The attrition, for good or for evil, is producing its effect. Day-light is entering—the shadows are fleeing apace. \ Men are now liv- ing,\ says Mr. PRIME, in his \Boat Life in Egypt,\ \ who will see the Crescent disappear from the valley of the Nile, and who will build their houses from the sacred stones of the mighti- est mosques in Gtand Cairo.\ Of this boat crew of nineteen, only three remembered and observed 'either of the three daily appointed seasons of prayer. Of the Mussulman, four-fifths, or five- fittha are infidels.\ SABBATHS AND SHOOTING. Pelicans abunded on Sundays when the travel- lers did not shoot Then follows some very nat- ural thoughts on the abundance of game on that day, we cannot forbear copying : ,\ Every one knows that an American crow is thoroughly ac- quainted with the succession of days, and the re- tarn of the seventh brings him down with fearless boldness on the corn fie]d._ It would be difficult to suppose that in this worse than heathen land, where the Sabbath is unknown, the birds keep the run of the day; arid yet, It was a stubborn fact, that every Sunday, on the river, the game\ was not only more plentiful than on other days,' but approached the. boat as fearlessly as if the animals knew that we kept the day of rest\ RAIN IN EGYPT. . \Norain.ialJaltt.Egjrpt (jjke ,j, e mythical Maelstrom on the coast pfVNorway,) disappears when investigated. \ I have seen,\ says Mr. Pmsi»% \o n the Site, sixty miles above Cairo, as bard a rain shower as oue is apt to see in Amer- ica. It is true that this is not a freqttent occur- rence, but there & more or less of rain in Upper £iid Lower Egypt every year.\ ;|jb^febT&S fei&wav |*oJ.if innocent, must hate ^Jay'waj^lll^ieeiilg^Badet *• night'*. lodging in,the. lock-op,, under the surveillance of poDce-cOBStablesiad the august'ceremonies o f Polite ''Cb<trft i NB»^o«J. j for* the,«^aw&nelibV who BMestjBTerj comniunity, and Uve by thimble* riggmg.tock-pickiDg.Arid Ahop-lifusg. • Van .

The National Intelligencer copies our article, and then attempts a sort of defence of the Depart- ment, though it evidently haa.no confidence in its ability, to explain or defend the inefficiency and mismanagement of the Post Office officials. The inteUjpencersays:^^ * • \Wa find an article on this subject in the Bos- ton Bee of a late date, to which our attention has been called from a respectable quarter, and which we deem worthy of'some explanation, as well in justice to the Post-Ofnce Department as for the information of the v public The Bee says:— \ The inefficiency of the postal arrangements in this country is well known. It costs an enor- mous Bum of money annually to maintain the Post Office Department, its expenditunea always ex- ceeding its Income; and yet with.all this the pub- lic are not well served, nor is the business man- aged with half the accuracy, dispatch, and effi- ciency which characterizes any well conducted privatesenterprise. The whole system is a lum- bering one, unequal in its burdens, slow in its processes, and it tails to meet the wantsof the pub- lic, for whose benefit alone it shonld exist There are various and frequent causes of complaint\ That irregularities occur daily in the mail ser- vice in some part of our widely-extended conn- try, and always will occur, giving rise to com- plaints, is not to be doubted ; but, as to the inef- ficiency of the Post Office Department and the value to the public of our postal system, this wri- ter's views do not accord with those-entertained generally by intelligent individuals. ( \ The mails are not transported with - as much regularity and speed as merchandise is conveyed bv expresses* no plan yet devised has rendered the mail a sale medium for transmitting money, and the tosses are numerous and generally irre- mediable-, the distribution offices and the mail agents divide with each other the responsibility of detaining letters longer on the routes than they should be, and often local postmasters manage their business as though they conceived the office to have been created rather for their personal ad- vantage than fbr the accommodation of the pub- lic. Great favoritism is Bhowu sometimes in the awarding of mail contracts, and certain sections of the country are muoh favored while others are subjected to great disabilities.\ We understand that all cases of dereliction on the part of postmasters is severely rebuked by the Department It emphatically denies that the above assertions can be established. They therefore are to be discredited unless specially proven. The answer to our first charge is, as will be seen, general and amounts to absolutely noth- ing in defence of the Department That the mails are unnecessarily irregular, late in their delivery, and badly managed, every business man in the country well knows, and to say that onr ideas are singular on this subject is to utter simple non- sense. Read the expositions made by Mr. Bates and Mr. Miles on the inefficiency of the mail ar- rangements in this country, or ask any man who has any considerable correspondence, and then say whether our criticism is too severe. As to the second rejoinder, it is weaker than the first Of what avails is it to say that the derelictions of postmasters are rebuked by the Department, so long as the evils are not remedied ? What if the assertions we make are not specially proven— that does not make them untrue. But they can be proved. When a Boston merchant commits a package to the care of an expressman, It reaches its destination at the earliest possible moment, ac- cidents excepted. It is not so with the letters sent by mail, for in numberless instances they are hours or days behind time, are missent, or never delivered -at all. This is well known, and re- quires nO Cited cases to establish its truthfulness. That the mail is not rendered as safe a mode of transmitting moneys, as the expresses or private hands, will not be denied by any Post Office offi- cial. The special agents employed to detect mail robbers can give- ample testimony on this point, and the hundreds of people who annually lose money by the inefficiency of the mail arrange- ments, can give strong corroboration of all we said. The practice of detaining letters between mail agents on the railway routes and the distri- bution offices is well known to all those who are familiar with theisubjeet To illustrate : the mail agent between Boston and Burlington, Vermont, has no time to assort the mail matter for points north and west What does 1 he do ? Why he just puts into the Burlington 1 office, all together, the letters for all places on the Hue to Ogdens- burgh and places beyond, does the aalne with all for Montreal and that vicinity, the saute for North- ern Vermont; this throws die labor of assorting and distributing opon the office at Burlington, and often it is unavoidable that mail matter Ilea over for a day. That local postmasters do man- age their business to suit themselves and not the pnblic, is notorious, and in some cases it is scan- dalous. We have knbwn an Irish postmaster to refuse to deliver mail inutter to persons who were not of his political faith, to close his office at hours trhich would incommbdo the' public, and we could go on sjiecifying a variety of ways in which these Officials, clothed with a little brief authority, coh- trive to magnify their own Importance to the great annoyance of the community. That the De- partment «t Washington does show favoritism, needs no proof. The Southern section of the Vaiou has, and always has had just what it asked, and we? of the North pay for their accommoda- tions. ' It is simple •blufrandj nonsense for the De- partment to pretend that the business is managed In the most efficient and befit manner. We do not say that it is not the fault of the system rattier than of the dfficiuig, but the faults exist, and they are-glaring and patent to every observer. -,V7}tn regard to the; particular case wbiiili \we Instanced in our previous article of;; the gross blunder com- mitted by the Department -in putting the mail from Lake Clmtnpliiiuto Ogdensborgb, K.;\X\ .on a.tri-Wee^lrlineof did staEe-ctaehei anil in ire- lation to all the excuses which the Department, through the InteiSgeneir attetepts to moke for this stupid mianiamjgenie'nt, it B enough! to say that the Department are about retoedying tiiat thing forthwith.

To carry coals and cargo, 18,000 \ Nominal power of paddle engines,. 1,000 horses. \ ' \ screw \ 1,600 \ Number of cylinders of paddle en- gines, 4 Diameter of cylinders, 74 inches, Lengbt of stroke, 14 ft 6 inches- Draft of water (laden) 30 feet \ \ (light) 20 \ To carry 800 1st class 1 \ 2,000 2d \ V Total, 4,000 pasa'gers. \ 1,200 3d \ ) \ Troops, without other passengers, 10,000 Weight of iron used in construction, about 7,000 tons. The speed of the vessel is estimated by Mr. Brunei at fifteen knots an hour, without diminu- tion and without cessation, under any weather; a speed which would accomplish the voyage be- tween England and India, by the Cape, in from thirty to thirty-three days; and between England and Australia, in from thirty-three to thirty-six days. V The mode proposed for launching the vessel is as follows : In constructing the foundation of the floor on which the ship is being built, provision is made at two points to insure sufficient strength to bear the whole weight ot the ship when comple- ted. At these two points, when the launching has to be effected, two cradles will be introduced, and the entire fabric will be lowered down gradu- ally to low water-mark, whence, on the ensuing tide, the vessel will be floated off. One peculiarity of this ship is that her deck will be flush, except for cabin entrances and similar purposes, so that her great length will af- ford the passengers a promenade of more than a quarter of a mile round the deck, which, from the magnitude of the vessel, ought to be at all times free from shipping water. ^Intimately connected with the appearance of the ship, is her rig, and added thereto, her motive power. In no ship have the chances of accident been so much studied as in the Great Eastern. Her provision against such contingencies may be thus stated : 1, An Inner and outer skin in com- partments ; 2, Water-tight bulk heads ; 8, Ample masts and sails , 4, Paddle-wheels; 5, Screw pro- peller. With regard to motive power, the wind will be made available, and for this purpose the vessel will be provided with seven masts. The centre masts will be the principal, these will be crossed by yards, as in a line-of battle ship; the other masts will be smaller in size. The sails will be of an effective but simple character. It is, however, in respect of its steam power, that this vessel will be most distinguished, com^ bining, as it does, both the paddle-wheel and the screw. The engines are incomparably larger than any hitherto made for marine purposes^nd their actual power will be far greater than\ ^heir nom- indl power already stated. Tbey will be placed in different parts of the ship, and be entirely inde- pendent of each other. The vessel will have ten boilers, and five funnels; and each boiler can be cut off from its neighbor, and used or not, as de- sired. The boilers will be placed longitudinally along the centre of the ship ; and it will give some idea of their generative power, when it is stated that every boiler will have ten furnaces, thus giv- ing to the whole no less than one hundred fur- naces. The luel to be used will be anthracite coal The paddle engines are direct, acting witb os- cillating cylinders, and ate constructed on the dis- connecting principle, in order that tbey may be used jointly or separately, so that both, or either of the paddle-wheels, can be put in independent motion. The diameter, of the paddle-wheels will be sixty feet There are few points connected with a paddle- wheel steamer more important than the diameter of the wheel; six inches, more or less, in many cases, altogether changing the character of the vessel for speed. A consideration of the light and heavy draft of water of this ship .will show the real difficulty in the way of the designer. ' The vessel will draw ten feet less when light than when she is laden ; and the great lift of wa- ter at the deepest immersion of the wheel is, in itself, on important consideration. The screw propeller will be twenty-four feet in diameter; it will be placed at the stern of the ves- sel, and worked in the usual manner. The best terms to describe the build is by stat- ing that there is an inner and outer skin.—The space between the outer and inner akin, or ship, is two feet ten inches. These skins are united to each other by longitudinal webs or girders form- ed of plate and angle iron. There are 17 of these webs on each side of the ship, which run the* en- tire length of the vessel; and they are placed at such distances as to extend upwards at intervals of about three feet; from the keel to the main deck; and they are again closed up in lengths varying from twenty to sixty feet Thus the outer and the inner ships are-joined together by means of a great number of water-tight webs or cells of extraordinary strength, giving the vessel a rigidity such as has never been communicated to a ship before. The upper deck ia treated in the same man- ner for a width of twenty feet on each side, and iron girders bind one side to the otter, so that,the entire vessel becomes, as it were,*a beam of strength, and the whole fabric may be denominated aWeb- of woven iron, the rivets forming the fastening and the webbed or honey-combed cells becomii w an indissoluble struotur*. The web plates are of half-Inch iron, and the |uter and inner skins are of three-quarter inebs iron.—The compartments between the outer a&inner skin will hold 8,000 t»ns|iof water ballast,Isfbnld it be required. The floor of the ship, as previously stated, is perfectly flat, the keel being turned inwards, and riveted to the inner ship's keel.—The bow and stem have additional strength imparted to them by strong iron decks at those parts. The ship will have a number of large ports on the lower deck to receive railway waggons, car- riages, ai.d bulky goods. Shehas also sixty ports on each side, two feet six Inches square; for ven- tilation ; and an abundance of dead lights. The lower poxts Are ten feet above the water when .the shipfis loaded. , . • •' - ' In adaition to these safeguards outwardly^ the vessel iidivided transversely by ten separate %a- ter-tighr bulk heads running up to-the main deck, and these apain are crossed by longltudlfl&l'bulk heads running fore and aft. It may therefore be said, that the ship consists inwardly of a great number of small cells, Or wa- ter-tight compartments, between the outer and inner skins, and of a number of large square com. .partmentsin the body of the'vesacU-TKecabins wiUbeonthedecks-aiiove these'\cbtnpkrtaieiife| aBd'wul-form large and - splendid ssloonB.

S An officer was then sent for a carriage, which drove up to the door immediately. A quantity of bedding, clothing, &c, was brought out and plac- ed in the carriage, and then the door wag thrown, open, and Mrs. Cunningham was brought out ly- ing on a mattress, borne by Capt DUks and offi- cer Smith,''who placed her carefully on the back seat She appeared to be dressed in blfick, was covered over with shawls, &c, and wore; a thick veil over her face.

Tjhe crowd consisted of servants from the neighboruig houses, a few chance foot passengers and two (reporters. 8ilence prevailed while Mrs. Cunninghajjn was be- ing brought out, only one old gentleman asked Capt Dilks if one of the bundles he brought out contained the baby.

Evening; Post, August 18.] Intelligence received from private sources to- day confirms the report that Rollins, the candidate of tbe emancipate n party in Missouri, has been elected Governor. No event of greater import- ance to this noble State has occurred since her ad- mission into tbe O aion. Aside from the personal superiority of Mr Rollins over his antagonist, which, we believe, is not disputed, a triumph of the friends of free labor there, just now, was vital to her. It gives t n impulse to her industrial im- provements wnic l will make a difference of a quarter of a centt ry in ker prosperity. This ex- pression of a pref srence for free labor by the peo- ple of Missouri will make hei from thenceforth a favorite State for pimlgration. Land, as a neces- sary consequencel must rapidly increase in value, and where land is>valuable, internal improvements are Bure to be reduired. This election, too, has, a political significance. . Just one year agk> Benton undertook to run for Governor, as an^vowed foe to emancipation. Its warmest friends did all tbey could fbr him, but he was shockingly beaten by both the administration and American c indidates. The same party this Summer nomina ted an intelligent and judicious, but, politically sj caking, a comparatively obscure man, and be Is < iected. This showB, in the first place, that all th: political sagacity in the country will not die with Colonel Benton, and in tbe next place, it shows t mt but for his interference in pre- venting a Fremt nt ticket from being run in Mis- souri last*Fall, tl lere was more than a fair chance \that the State w raid have given its electoral vote for the Republican candidate.

A motion for a second reading having been carried on the following evening, Lord Pal- merston said the government would offer tra fur- ther opposition to the bill. The new divorce bill was then debated, and streuuous opposition was shown to it, but it was ordered to a second reading. In tbe House of Lords, Lord Ellenborough at- tacked and Lord Granville defended the present Governor-General of India, the latter stating that Lord Canning was proving himself quite equal to the emergency. The royal assent had been given to the bill in- corporating the Atlantic Telegraph Company. All the vessels comprising the expedition for laying the Atlantic Telegraph cable had arrived at Cork. It was intended that they should leave that port for Valencia on the Slst of July or the 1st ol August, and that, the weather permitting, the shore-rope should bo landed and the vessels commence sinking the cable on the 3rd or 4th of August It is intended strictly to avoid giving priority of information, and to afford no facilities for jobbing and speculating during the laying ot the cable. A house was being constructed at the terminus, into which would be introduced the end of the cable, and during the progress of the lay- ing of it, no one will have admission there except- ing the Secretary of the Company and his assist- ants, and they will avoid all cOmmunication~with persons outside. Progress will be reported daily, to all parts of Europe. The paying out experi- ments from the Agamemnon, between Dover and Queenstown, were perfectly successful. The following is the latest telegraphic despatch received regarding the cable: •' 0.orasK>ws, July 81,18ST. \ RICBA%K;STOART, Esq,, Agent of the Aszodaud Press, LAverpoot: \ The Submarine Cable on board the Niagara and Agamemnon, over twenty-five hundred miles long, was joinedtogetherlast,evening,and messages were Bent through its entire length in less than a second.

FIELD.\ Prince Napoleon had visited Victoria at the Isle of Wight and the Emperor and Empress of France were expected there about the 5 th of August. JRumors were current that the Government in- tended to send 10,000 additional troops to India- Mr. Munts, the well-known Reformer, and Member of Parliament for Birmingham for seven- teen years, died on the 80th. There was some talk of patting Mr. John Bright in nomination to fill tbe vacancy. There had been a great political demonstration at Rochdale, composed principally of non electors. Resolutions were passed declaring that it is the right of every man who has arrived at the age of 21 years to have a vote in the election of Members of Parliament, and to have tbe protection of the ballot in the exercise of that right; and that there ought to> he a distribution of constituencies throughout tbe United Kingdom, equalized in pro- portion to the population/ The journals from the south and middleward districts of Ireland state that the greatest anxiety began to prevail with regard-to tbe Jsafety the of potato crop, although the disease, it was generally admitted, had only partially jmanifested itself.

The details of the Indian news already tele- graphed reached London on Friday night Rumors were very prevalent that Delhi had been taken, but according, to the last authentic accounts, dated June 17, it (was still in the posses- sion of the insurgents. It Was very generally be- lieved in London on JrisBay evening, on the strength of a communication from the East India House, that Delhi had falle^ after the close of offi- cial hours, and accordingly on advance took place in consols. • i The Bombay J^nes of July 1, says the rebellion is universal in the Bengal afmy,- and even the 10th regiment of native infantry, which was publicly thanked by tbe Governor-peneral in person for its loyalty three weeks Before, had been dis- armed. Not a symptom of dissatisfaction has as yet ap- peared in the Madras army, which manifested per- fect loyalty and repelled indignantly every attempt made to seduce them from their allegiance by emissaries from the Bengal troops. A fist is given of the-nfty-six regiments, or por- tion of regiments, whichvhave routined, while thirty have been disarmed, and one disbanded. In fact, the Bengal army his ceased to exist The fall of Delhi will do,more to qnench rebel- lion than anything else. * There is some anxiety about the Nigama Country, as the first regiment pf cavalry had mutinied,] jand there were great atrocities committed at Hanzle and Hessar, but' many Europeans escaped|i No Europeans were killed at Arungbad. The, Bhutpoor Levies had mutinied, and the offlcers.Were obliged to fly, but none of them were injured. At Albahad, twenty- six Europeans and their .families were killed, in- cluding eleven officers.'

ARRIVAL O F THE SC'BTIVOHS. ipproved feAcal [Prom the New York Tribune, August 12.] On the 1st of August s telegraphic dispatch was received in this'city, via.Boston, stating that on the 21st of July the bark MoOiasco, Capt Dailey, of Warren, Maine, was totally lost on the coast of Burin, Newfoundland, while on her way from Gut- tenburg to this port On Monday evening last, the survivors, minus the captain and his wife ar- rived in this city from SL Pierre, Newfoundland, on the French brig Isruis Gillies. We have seen a portion ot them, and learn that the ship left Got- tenburg for New York on the 18th of June, with 61 Swedish passengers and a crew of 12 persons. On the night of the 21st of July, the bark ran upon a high rock on Corbin Head, Newfoundland, hnd soon after went down, head foremost By this disaster 54 Swedish passengers perished. It would appear, however, from the facts which hove transpired, that this dreadful loss of life was main- »ly attributable to the cowardice and incapacity of the captain. Had Capt. Dailey possessed ordinary discretion and self-control, few, if any, of his pas- sengers would have been lost But, instead of manfully standing by his ship, he was the first to set an example of pusillanimity which it is truly painful to contemplate. At the first alarm, he rushed with his wife to the boat, and stuck by it to the last as though it were his only hope. We trust that those who saw fit to place him in so re- sponsible a position will take the earliest oppor- tunity to ascertain how faithfully he discharged its duties. • » At the Castle Garden, yesterday, we saw five of the passengers, and two of the crew of the Monasco. The remainder of the survivors were wandering about the city in various directions. Those at -Castle Garden were in charge of the Rev. O. G. Hedstrom, pastor of the new Bethel Ship, at Pier No. 11 North River.

The French horse Monarqu^, was first, winning by a head, and the English horse Riseber, being second. We have been told that a gentleman in this Village has been a no small winner in the result of this, the most interesting Goodwood Cup for many years. Few particulars have reached us of this great contest, and none of the accounts we have seen, give the time, Mr. TEN BROECK will have to give John Bull another trial, or pack up his traps and come home. The following is the most minute description we have seen, with which our readers must be conteht until the next arrival: The French horse Monarque won the race. The English horse Riseber is placed second, and Fish- erman third. Gunboat slipped and fell, and Kestrel and Gamma di Ter^also fell heavily. Monargye won by a head, and Riseber beat Fisherman by about three lengths. Anton was placed fourth, and was three lengths behind Fisherman. The American horses^Prior and Prioress, were placed fifth and j sixth, and the English horse Melissa seventh. All the others pulled up. The finish is said to have been the most exciting affair ever witnessed. The Eng- lish papers remark, but without assigning any reason, that the American hdrses would have figured more prominently had I they been ridden by English jockeys. j \Languague Would fail Sufferings-.'' describe my The Elmpewreturni^WPfcielrc^ on Wednesday, -;-.'';: the trial ofthe' ithuahAAnd others for a con- smracy to asaaaalMte the Emperor Napoteon.takea Letter***** Irancje. jay that the. harveat «#• p*»t*M expectation.
