The Bank of Frauoe also prporta s lues uf four millions of dollars since its report ia September. Letters from England recently received ia Boston, report tbe failure, ia Manchester of a dosea Mouses devoted lo the sale of silks sud fine goods.

' T The Eleetioa rreently came off ia Kansas, aed the Xultimal UoLuocrm y suet with a signal de feat. . After all the high hopes held oat by cer tain Southern journals, thai I be progapcry Demo cratic ticket would be elected, and Kansas aaved tu tbe J?odlh, it turns Out, as we learn from Demo cratic authority, that Kauaous the democratic champion waa about as favorable to tbe South aud Slavery as arc most of our Sullunul Drmo- eruU. . speaking of the Election, the Lynchburg (Va J Hepublicao, a staunch Democratic journal thus expresses itself : " Tbe election in Ksnaas for State officers, and for s member of Congress, has tcsulled io a Black Kepublipaa victory, l'arrott has beaten Hansom, the Demovralie caudidate, by some thousand or two votes. It is said thst the real pro slavery Democracy of tbe Territory refused to vote lor Kaiiaom, because he wse considered unsound on Ihe slavery question. "The Walker journals bsve nothing to say npon this subject, and siede not blame them. .For ourselves, we sre gratified st the defeat of what is called Ibe "national democracy in Kan sas. Il is a debauched set made up ia most part of political aud personal rascals and Knavee. Hansom was not one whit beUefthan l'arrott. Both are Black Republicans in principle if not in name and proteasioa. The idea of a pro slavery psrty running-aa auti-elavery eandidale for Congressy in order t make Kanssa a slave Mlat'e, was nothing bat mockery and insult. It waa the result ol a base betrayal of the cause, of the South ia Kansas, aad its authors have gotten the just reward ol their treachery. H e bare aa utter aad iiiexpreeaible contempt for such a Democracy, aud cannot conceal it," Sacb ia the plain language ot a Democratic print, relative to tbe National sprigs of it own tattered party.' Iu the very face of all the "hopes" for the ultimate securing of Kansas to the (South through the influence and agency of the iui- (nense ouuiber of tlie pro-slmvry National Demo- 'e'rabi ta the Tern'uJry. The ttepublieae says. u The idea of a pro-sis very party running aa aati-slavery candidate for Congress, in order to make Kansas a slave Mate, mas nothing Int Mockery ami intuit." ' Thi is very plain lao inuge but undoubtedly true, . We are only surprised that tbe democracy of tbe South should either wonder, or complain a it is but a 'step towards the completioa of the Veil studied design of Buchanan ao4 bia prime agent. Walker.
