Port hard ! or the of Captain Carter from both Sides.\u2014The following specimen of steering through an intricate channel we translate from la Minerve, which seems likely soon to heat its brother organ of the English language in the art of meandering ;\u2014 a We learn from good authority that Captain Carter no longer fulfils any functions in the Militia Department.His family has left Montreal, and he will set out immediately, if he has not done so, to rejoin his regiment.The official career of Captain Carter, though not long, has been somewhat agitated.He has been a mam for the shafts of calumny, and at the mo-ment of leaving his functions, it may he said that he leaves a part of the public very much prejudiced against him.His conduct at St, Armand in J une last certainly merits no praise, but it is not proved that it arose from cowardice.Besides some journalists who abuse him without ceasing, have always taken care to keep clear of bullets,1 That Captain Carter committed a fault, a very grave fault in retreating before a horde of Fenians, we are ready to acknowledge, but we think him unfortunate rather than cowardly.Without doubt misfortunes ol that kind are not titles to favour, and therefore, we are not surprised to see that the chiefs of the Department have brought themselves to do without the services of Captain Carter.He had become very unpopular.But in spite of this unpopularity we cannot help saying that among military men\u2014his brethren in arms\u2014he has the reputation of being able and experienced.This he has proved in Canada, for he was charged with the organization of the Military School at Toronto, and at the end of the month it passed for being the most brilliant and prosperous in the Province\u2014a model to other schools.These real administrative services cannot make us forget the faults which Captain Carter has committed since.Nevertheless we are glad to see him dismissed, for his presence in the Militia Bureau had become a subject of constant complaints on the part of the volunteers.These complaints were no doubt purposely exaggerated by evil intention-ed journals ; but they did not do the less mischief\u2014in a certain degree\u2014to the military organization of Lower Canada.I by telegraph.] MIDNIGHT DESPATCHES.(BYATLANTIC CABLE) f Liverpool, Oct.3.\u2014Market for cotton firm.Middling Uplands are quoted at

Minister for Foreign Affairs ad interim to the French Ambassadors residing at Foreign Courts.This circular has been looked forward to ever since the German war, and the aggrandizement of Prussia.The French nation was beginning to get impatient at the prolonged silence of the Emperor.However, it is a long lane that has no turning, and Mous, de la Valette has at last spoken out.The Emperor, for it is he who is at the bottom of all, informs the world thata everything is for the best in Germany ; that he has no reason to he alarmed at the Unitarian movement in Fatherland, and that as no one menaces us we need not be afraid of any power.Peace at any price, therefore, just now, is the Imperial programme.However, it is a difficult matter to please all the world aud his wife, and there are those in France who find the conduct of Napoleon III.a little too disinterested, and very similar to that of Louis Phillippe in 1840.The policy of the Emperor is called by the witty'the policy of the sick man, and the manifesto of the Minister of Foreign Affairs ad interim is full of contradictions, as this most pacific declaration is issued just at a time when the change meditated in the French army will place the whole nation under arms.Whilst on the one hand the Moniteur tells us that peace is assured, government calls out to us.\u201c Let us arm to the teeth.\u201d The famous and a la mode principle of nationalities, also receives its share of praise in the circular.Mous, de la Valette touches upon the tendency now abroad, which urges small States to unite and form large ones.This incense burnt under the very nose of the Prussian premier, will only excite him to be more overbearing than ever towards the weak.King Leapoid of Belgium will no doubt feel a twinge in reading the long looked for Circular of the Minister of Foreign Affairs ad interim.The hymn of peace, signed La Valette, contains one rather alarming paragraph, and shows that the French Government is rather uneasy with respect to the alliance of the United States with Russia.The hearty welcome given at St.Petersburg and at Moscow to the American diplomatists, has made the sick Jupiter of the Tuileries frown a little.He cannot, however, be surprized at the attitude of the American Government, for during the whole of the civil war the fédérais of the United States met with nothing but hostility, coolness and ill-will from the greater part of the nations of Europe.Russia alone showed sympathy for the federal cause, and she now reaps the recompense of her prudent conduct.Accounts brought in from across the Atlantic tell us that poor Maximilian is in a dreadful plight, aud does not know what to be about.He is catching at every straw, and faute de mieux has just called two French men to his aid and given them important places in his government.However, this has availed him nothing, as his faithful protector has forbidden Messrs.Ormont and Friant to help Maximilian to clean out the Augean stables of Mexico.The Emperor has just sent General Castelnau on a mission to the tottering Emperor.He was to embark at St.Nazaire, on Sunday, in the steamer Impératrice, for Mexico.The Patrie says that the mission of the Emperor\u2019s aide-de-camp is far from having for object, as some journals have stated, to put an immediate term to the French intervention.But notwithstanding the assurance of this semi-official paper, it is generally believed that it is the desire of the government to withdraw the French troops as quickly as possible from the neighbourhood of the hornet\u2019s nest which is being formed in the so-called Empire of Mexico.The health of the Emperor is decidedly improving, though he is not likely to make any excursion this year, either to Biarritz or elsewhere.The only orders given to persons attached to the Emperor\u2019s household, have been to hold themselves in readiness for a journey in case of need.The health of Count Baccoiche the intimate friend of .Napoleon III., is such as to have little or no hope to his friends, and he has received the last sacrament from the hands of the Abbe Deguerry, cure of the Madelaine.The Marquis, de Boissy the so-called anglo-phobe, or John Bull eater, and Merry Andrew of the Corps Legislatif is also said to be in great danger and to have received the last consolation of religion.As I have already stated the Exhibition of 1867 is the one absorbing thought of the Emperor, and everything must give way to that.Bismark may do as ho likes, Maximilian may perish without aid, and the Pope and his Cardinals may k wl ml cry \u201c come over and help us.\" A deaf ear is turned to all those supplications, you must all wait until the world\u2019s Fair of 1867 is over.Letters from Rome state that

THE ENGLISH PRESS ON TSE LAMIR- ANDE CASE.(From the London Daily News ) We translated on Monday from the Journal des Debats a paragraph relating to the deportation from Canada of a subject of the French Empire, under circumstances which assimilate the act to kidnapping.The full accounts now furnished by the Canadian journals, and the written judgment delivered by one of the judges otthe Queen\u2019s Bench, fully confirm tnis view and present it in an aspect so serious as to call for the notice of the public and the action of the Government.The transfer of M.Lamirande from Canada! to France has taken place nominally under the Extradition Act, and actually under a warrant signed by the Governor-General.When the facts are considered in the light of the judgement pronounced by Judge Drummond, it will be generally admitted that this is only an aggravation of the case, and that Lord Monck\u2019s confidence has been grievously abused by those who were bound to supply him with correct information We print the judgment in another column, and shall be glad if the reader will refer to it for the verification of the extraordinary statement we have to make.In the fourth week of last July Mr.Lamirande being in Canada, a demand was made by M.Gautier, the French Consul at Montreal, for his surrender, under the Extradition Treaty it being alleged that he was a fugitive from justice, having committed forgery at Poictiers, in France.A warrant was issued for his apprehension, and he was arrested and carried before Mr.W.H, Brehaut, a police magistrate, by whom he was committed to prison, on the 22nd of August.Notice was then given by counsel, that a petition would he presented on the 24th before a Judge of the Queen\u2019s Bench at Chambers, praying for the issue of a writ of Habeas Corpus and the discharge of the prisoner.The petition was duly heard before Mr.Justice Drummond.In his judgment the learned Judge thus refers to what passed at this hearing:\u2014\u201cI soon convinced myself, \u201c after reading the statute cited in the warrant \u201c of extradition, that the warrant itself\u2014the pre-\u201c tended warrant of arrest alleged to have been \u201c issued in France\u2014and all the proceedings taken a with a vino to obtain the extra dition of the pri-11 soner, were unothorised by the above- cited statute, \u201c illegal, null, and void, and the prisoner was, \u201ctherefore, entitled to his discharge from \u201cimprisonment.\u201d Tho Judge says he would have issued the writ at once, but that Mr.Pominville, the counsel who appeared for the COURT OP QUEEN\u2019S BENCH.SEPTEMBER TERM.Present : His Honour Mr.Justice Drummond.Monday, Oct.3rd.LARCENY.Joseph Pelletier, charged with larceny, was acquitted.Before opening the proceedings, His Honour desired to know who were the proprietors of Le Pays newspaper.All who had attended the sitting of this Court must he aware that there was not much time to read the newspapers.It was by the merest accident that his attention had been called to an article in the Pays.which contained statements of a most slanderous nature, charging him with base, cowardly and corrupt motives, personally in his proceedings in a certain case before the Court, They might slander him in private life, and he might take no steps to remedy the evil, trusting to his own character to speak for itself.\u2014 But when they dared to assault the Court with obloquy, to hold out threats to attempt to over awe Jthe Courts, whether these were in the shape of appeals to the executive or held out as proceedings from the people, lie felt that a stop must be put to this.He would draw a strong line of demaication between the Judge in his own private capacity and his position as Judge.No attacks could be more base than those made on a Judge who could not defend his own private character, but he would take care that no man dared to slander Her Majesty, in the person of her representative seated in a Court of justice.This was another instance that the very men who would the one day praise a man because he was of their way of thinking, would next day turn round to slander him.\u2014 Those who were most liable to those attacks, were the men who in their career as advocates or politicians would never \"submit to become the instruments of the passions or prejudices either of their clients or party.The declaration of proprietorship of Le Pnys was then read, from which it appeared that the registered owners are C.F.Papineau and V.P.\\V.Dorion.His Honour then said that he was convinced these gentlemen too well understood their duties to Society, and the respect they owed to the Court to have sanctioned the publication of such an attack as that to which he had referred, and the position of one of them as a member of the law practising before this Court, to which he had always shown the utmost respect, confirmed the belief that he must have been ignorant of the publication of this article.He would, therefore, not take any legal measures in the meantime but request the attendance of the proprietors to give the 1 name of the writer of the article.If this were refused then the necessary consequences would follow, a rule would issue commanding them to show cause why a writ of attachment should not issue against them.QUALIFICATION Op JURORS.A question aiose on a motion brought forward by Mr.J.K.Hougton, to except certain Juros from serving on the petty Jury, on the ground that they were in possession of premises paying a higher annual rent than that required of petty jurors.The decision turned upon the legal interpretation of the Statutes, and as it was a question of some legal importance, it was decided that Mr.Ramsay and Mr.Houghton should each hand in a written statement of the arguments and authorities, CONCEALMENT OF BIRTH.Agnes Taillifer was charged with concealing the birth of a child.Mr.Charles Ouimet defended.Mr.Ramsay said there was a difficulty in this case which had induced him to abandon the proceedings.The law required to complete the crime that there should he a final burial or disposal of the body.This had not occurred in this case.The body had been placed in a garret, and no final disposal had, therefore, legally speaking been made, He proposed to abandon the case.The Jury were then ordered to acquit.LARCENY.Alphonse de Longchamps for stealing an overcoat, was placed at the bar.After evidence being heard the Jury retired and the Court took a short recess.AFTER RECESS The Jury returned into Court with a verdict of not guilty against de Longchamps.BESTIALITY.Alfred Mailloux, a young French Canadian, was indicted for an unnatural offence committed on the 19th of July.The details of the evidence are unfit for publication.Mr.G.Ouimet conducted the case for the Crown, and Mr.Chapeleau for the defence.\u2014 There being several witnesses to examine for the defence, the jury were locked up for the night.The Grand Jury presented true hills against Michael Delavigue for larceny, and J.G.Burrows for manslaughter.The Court then adjourned at six o\u2019clock.CITY ITEMS.The Charitable Committee of the St.Andrew\u2019s Society, begs to acknowledge with thanks the receipt of 44 loaves bread, from Mr.Benton, Chief of Police, for the St.Andrew\u2019s Home.Prince of Wales Regiment of Volunteer

up on a warrant, having been al-i owed out on hail on a charge of drunkenness, aud was fined $4 or 20 days.The other charges were for drunkenness, fines of $1 in each case being inflicted.There were 23 cases in all.Felix Gareau, for neglecting to remove a nuisance, had his case postponed till the 11th instant.prosecution, wished to be heard, so the case was adjourned to the following morning.At this hearing there were suspicions that the prisoner was likely to be spirited away out of the jurisdiction of the court; hut upon Mr.J.Doutre, his counsel, signifying as much to the Judge, the counsel for the crown expressed great indignation at so dishonouring a suspicion.We now leave the judgment for a time, and follow the narrative of Mr.C.L.Spilthorn, an attorney, who was engaged for the prisoner.We take up his narrative at that point where he describes what happened on the evening of the 24th, the day on which the prisoner appeared before Judge Drummond.He is writing to Mr.Doutre, the prisoner\u2019s counsel.(Here follows the account by Mr.Spilthorn of the putting of Lamirande on board the cars :) On the morning of the 25th, Judge Drummond took his seat and ordered the issue of a writ to bring the prisoner before him with a view to his immediate discharge.The gaoler\u2019s return was that he had delivered Lamirande to E.J.Melin, a police inspector of Paris, on the night of the 2ith, at twelve o\u2019clock, in obedience to an order signed by M.H.Sanborn, deputy-sheriff, granted upon an instrument signed by his Excellency the Governor General.¦s=s-\u2014r' /O We think that the British public will he of.[opinion that this high-handed dealing of the Executive in contempt of the judicial authority, which is the sole piotection of a person accused, demands instant and serious investiga-tion.There is no more sacred right known to! the constitution that of a prisoner to a writ of habeas corpus, and of this protection he was most foully deprived.But the case assumes a worse ispeot when it is found that the principal parties to it had been put on their guard, and had given their solemn pfomise that no surprise should be attempted- Hr.Spilthorn, the attorney before quoted, says in his narrative ; *- \u201c On the 17th I was received by his Excellency (the Governor-General), who told me spontaneously that he knew the object of my visit, that he had seen and read the petition of Lamirande, and that there was no occasion to entertain any fear, that nothing would be done hurriedly nor without the fullest consideration J that Lamirande would be allowed all the time required for applying by Habeas Corpus or other legal means to all competent courts of her Majesty.Then a general conversation followed about the facts of the case.I explained to his Excellency the case of Windssr, decided in London in the spring of 1865, when the same question was decided by three of the highest and most distinguished judges of England\u2014by which decision it was established, that admitting as true all the facts alleged in the case of Lamirande, there was no ground for extradition.I mentioned that when this case had been cited before the police magistrate, the crown prosecutor had laughed at the decisions of those English judges as being no authority.His Excellency expressed the high respect he entertained for the opinion of the judges of the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench, which, besides being the highest court, was presided over by the most eminent and learned judges of England.After repeating assurance that (he prisoner worjld be allowed the most ample time and opportunity of having his case fully examined by all competent courts, not excluding the courts of England (as I had alluded to the possibility of resorting to them), his Excellency advised me to see the Hon.Attorney General Cartier.\u201d Mr.Cartier repeated to Mr.Spilthorn the assurance which that gentleman had received from Lord Monck.He said he did not see any occasion for hurrying the matter ; that we should have all the time required for habeas corpus, and that I might have the fullest confidence in (he word of the Governor General, whose promise I had communicated to him.We then parted in the most friendly way.We do not hesitate to denounce this seizure and removal of a prisoner who had appealed from a magistrate to a Judge of the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench as a gross outrage upon British law, and an affront to British justice.We know not how it happened that Lord Monck was imposed on\u2014and that he must have been grossly misinformed as to the facts, no one who knows his high character can doubt\u2014but, unquestionably, our Government is bound to take steps to redress the wrong that has been done.If such things are passed over no one will be safe.Lamirande may be gpilty or innocent : that is not the question.The guarantees of justice must he maintained irrespective of the assumed character of the accused, or they will fail the innocent in the time of need.We cannot doubt that the Earl of Carnarvon has already occupied himself with the case, and we trust that the insolent Canadian officials, who boast that \u201c they laugh at judges\u2019 orders,\u201d will be taught a severe and salutary lesson.will direct their steps to Westetü Canada.\u2014 Quebec Gazette._________________ , CRIME IN NEW ZEALAND.On Tuesday, the 12th cî last June, fotlt men, named Mathieu, Kempthorne, Dudley, ana Pontius, started for Nelson from Deep Creek, carrying with them, a considerable amount of gold.Their road lay through a wild country, not impassable, or except from human enemies dangerous ; but still beset with natural difficulties.At one point this track was carried by a cutting up the side of a steep mountain thickly wooded.The trees, however, had been felled so as to open a bridle road through the forest, but its width was only six feet, aud on either side the ground was encumbered with the fallen timber or the natural bush.In fact, the way could he so barred by robbers that flight would he impossible, and if travellers were not strong enough to resist their fate would he sealed.Along this track the four travellers had to proceed, and when they did not make their appearagee at the settlement the alarm was taken, and an expedition organized in colonial fashion for the discovery of the truth.In a few hours forty voluuteers were prepared to start in search of the missing travellers.They soon came upon traces of a fearful deed.The horse belonging to the travellers was found shot through the head and tumbled into a gully their bags and packs found rifled, nor could there be much doubt about the fate of the victims.In the meantime, however, the whole of the dark story had been unravelled.Suspicion had fallen upon four strangers who had been hanging about, and they were put in gaol at Nelson.Their names proved to he Levy, Sullivan, Burgess, and Kelly, and as the first was a Jew, and it was thought that a priest of his own faith might induce him to confess, he was removed to a separate place of confinement.This proceeding appears to have reached Sullivan, and to have alarmed him for hi own safety, and so, wishing to be beforehand with his accomDlice, he volunteered a full disclosure of the deeds of the gang.The revelation proved to be far more shocking than was expected.The four prisoners were the murderers of the four travellers, but the crime was not an exceptional event ; it was committed in the deliberate exercise of a systematic profession.The prisoners formed a gang not only of robbers, but of assassins.Their practice was to put their victims to death.Being well armed and taking care to he well posted, they were usually more than a match for any party of better and closed dull j èaieà 44,000 bus, at 50 to 68c for Chicago ; 58c to 61c for Milwaukee, and 61c to 62c for State.LATEST MARKETS.Flotlr closed 10c to 15c lower and less active.Wheat closed dull and

Liquor Law.\u2014The city authorities have again attempted to put a stop, if possible, to liquor selling on Sunday.Police agents were despatched around the city on Saturday night to inform hotel keepers that their bar should be closed from 12 o\u2019clock every Saturday night in future, until Monday morning at six o\u2019clock, under pain of fine and imprisonment.\u2014Quebec Daily News.Smuggling Boots.\u2014A man named McGnirei who was seen about a week ago removing several boxes from the railroad track near Duf-fins Creek, during the night in a suspicious manner, was arrested on suspicion of being a Fenian, and lodged in gaol at Whitby.On Sunday morning when Mr, Jackson, the turnkey, opened the cell door, McGuire struck him a violent blow on the back of the head with the leg of a chair and demanded the keys.Mr.Jackson was nearly stunned, hut grappled with the prisoner and held him down till Mr.Sprowle, the gaoler, who heaid the noise, came to his assistance, when the prisoner was handcuffed.We understand he has been committed to stand his trial at the Assizes for assault.The boxes turned out to be filled with boots he was trying to smuggle.More Smuggling.\u2014Two men named Thos Morgan and Bryce Ray, together with a boy named Edward Tompkins, were arrested by officer Esser, on Thursday night, and were yesterday held to bail for trial, by Commissioner Wilkins, upon the charge of smuggling whiskey across the river.The job was undertaken by Morgan, he having agreed with Ray, who is a saloon-keeper, on the River road, just below the Michigan Central railroad crossing of Woodhridge street.Ray had given Morgan $15 to \u201cstart\u201d the business, but before tho liquor reached him it was seized, together with the boat that brought it, by the officers of the revenue.\u2014Detroit Free Press Sept.29.The Demand for Labor in Upper Canada.__For some time past, we have had occasion to remark on the alarming exodus of our artisans and labouring classes to the United States, in search of employment which they have failed to procure at home.Some days since, we noted the fact that there was a demand for artizans at Ottawa, and to-day we have much pleasure in publishing the following extract from a letter addressed by the Government Emigration Agent at Toronto to A.C.Buchanan, Esq., the Chief Emigration Agent here : \u201cSince writing to you yesterday, an order has been given me for forty carpenters and sixty workmen or labourers, the first for two months, at $2 a day, the latter, $1 i, and they can depend on work at this rate for at least two month: Éwith the chances of steady employment afterwards ; in fact, we can distribute almost any number of labourers among the farmers.\u201d It is to he hoped that artizans and laborers will take advantage of this opportunity, and, travellers, hut they were prepared also for tho chance of being outnumbered.They had provided themselves with strychnine, and had proposed to join any party too strong for them in the guise of friends, and then destroy them by putting this poison in their food.In the case, under inquiry, thev had gone to the wood, and had stationed themselves, two in the road, and one in the bush on each side.Whemthe travellers came up they were brought to a stop by the highwaymen in front, and then, turning round, found escape cut off by the other two, who had sprung up in their rear.Then follow, ed the butchery.Kempthorne was shot through the head.Pontins was killed in the same manner, hut his body was horribly bruised by heavy stones, which the murderers had thrown upon him to complete their work or to conceal the corpse.Mathieu had no such easy death.The first shot struck one of his ribs and glanced aside.Then his coat was opened and a knife plunged into his breast, hut the blade missed a vital part and he lived still.At last another shot was fired, which proved fatal, but all this time the unfortunate victim had been struggling with his bonds, for his body was found, in a sitting posture, against the trunk of a tree, his staring eyes, open mouth, and swelled muscles (raye evidence of desperate convulsions.It seems that the ammunition of the gang was running short, for Dudley was strangled with a scarf.These dreadful disclosures were forwarded to the voluuteers and the confession was verified.The scene which ensued was strange and characteristic, As each corpse was found the bugles sounded, and tire volunteers collected to raise the body and carry it to the road, till at length the four bodies lay side by side on the bank.Either the climate or the bush had been favourable to their preservation-, for, though they had l»iï) fov 16 days on the hillside, they were in no way decomposed, nor had they been touehed by beasts ; and the searching part)', when nothing more was to be learnt, returned to Nelson with the remains, The great object now was to secure the prL soners.Special measures of precaution were at once adopted.Four cells were prepared and lined with iron from top to bottom.In each a prisoner was placed and so little was thought of the guilt of any other inmate that four of the ordinary convicts were told off and placed singly in the iron cells with the four prisoners as a kind of guard.Tn addition to these precautions the prison was watched by a strong patrol night and day, hut au incident is curious ly suggestive of our own national ways.Of course, the prisoners were searched, aud suits of the prison dress were given them.Against this however, as an unlawful ignominy, they violently rebelled.These wretches, who lived by murder, and had taken life on the smallest provocation, protested fiercely against the indignity inflicted by the costume of the gaol.They alleged that they were not convicts, hut only prisoners committed for trial, and till they had been been found guilty had a right to he supposed innocent, and therefore wear their own clothes.This argument was adrpjtted, and the rights of Englishmen were allowed to prevail.By this time probably the process has been concluded : but the other atrocities in the confession were so frightful that the -story aud its incidents may he expected to live in colonial memories for many a year to come.Large Loan to Canada.\u2014We understand that her Majesty\u2019s Government have agreed to give the imperial guarantee for .£4,000,000 to be raised on the revenues of the confederated British colonies in North America.Of the sum £3,000,000 is to he applied to the construction of the International P.vilway between Halifax and Quebec, or rather to the junction of that line with the Grand Trunk at Riviere du Loup.The remaining £1,000,000 is to be applied to the purchase of the rights of the Hudson Bay Company, leaving to that company still the right of trading over the territory and holding the trading ports necessary for carrying on its trade.The delegates from Canada are expected in England daily.The goveraors of the Hudson\u2019s Bay Company are prepared to recommend to the proprietors the acceptance of the £1,000,000 as the purchase money of the territorial or sovereign rights wfiich they hold.The claim of the company against the United States Government arising out of the Oregon question is likely shortly to be settled, and the qmount to he received will he somewhere about £250,000.\u2014Raleway Neios.Military Stores for Canada.\u2014The steam transport Thames, laden with war stores and passengers for Quebec aud Montreal, under orders to sail from Woolwich Arsenal-pier, as stated in The Times yesterday, was detained until this morning, on account of an additional amount of ammunition to be shipped at Gravesend, an enlargement of her magazine having been found necessary for that purpose, and the ship was detained at Woolwich until this morning, when she will ship at Gravesend about 100 tons of ammunition, and\u2019feail direct for Canada.The Thames sailed from Woolwich last year, on the 29th of October, with a somewhat similar freight, and reached her destination after a passage of less than 14 days.The sister ship, St.Lawrence, is embarking in the Victoria dock a cargo of stores for the same destination, and is under orders to sail on the 19th of October.The cargo of the Thames was hoisted on board and carefully stowed in the hold at the rate of nearly 400 tons per day.\u2014London Times, Sept.20.MONEY REPORT.Wednesday, Oct.3 opened at 148, declined to 147J, and 1866.Gold closed at 148j.Greenbacks are bought at 323 t° 32J dis., and sold at
