A lively discussion was held to-day"on the question of tne aboli tion of the General Council. A report was presented to the Congress which says that Bismaack is the spy-in-chief of the German Empire. It declares that the Government of Berlin projects another Avar, while the Congress at the Hague has for its object the preservation of peace.

Lexingtox (111.), September 10.

A dreadful fatal disease, known as Texas fever, is prevailing am.0113 the cattle in this locality. Forty milch cows have died in this town within two weeks, and many more are sick. It is equally bad in the country. Not a single case has recovered from the disease. It is attributed to the large importation of Texas stock during the summer, and it is expected that all native ca.ttle that have been exposed will be lost. A meeting of those who have lost cattle has been held, and a committee appointed to wait upon the stock men and demand damages. Great alarm prevails. New York, September 10. There is great disgust among the criminal classes, and lawyers who defend them, over the refusal of Judge Leonard to release Burns, the murderer, from the Insane Asylum, where he was sent when acquitted of murder, pn the ground of insanity. Burns was remanded to the Asylum to-night, and his lawyer admit that his release will be very difficult. Cheyenne, September 10. Snow fell on the hills west of hem yester day.

New York, September 5. ! A special dispatch from Nagasaki, Japan, says nineteen lives were li»st by the burning of the America. LATER. There is nothing new regarding the burning of the P.M.S.S. America. A London dis patch, received this morning, reporting loss of life, is not credited. The company say

the disaster could not have occurred at Nagasaki, as that port is 100 miles from Yokohama, and the company's steamer lias never coaled there.

New York, September 0. A dispatch from Wilmington states that the schooner Carlton arrived there with three passengeis and three officers of the burned steamship Bienville. Three passengers and thirty-seven of the crew have arrived at Baltimore. Some of the passengers of the Bienville are on the schooner McGee, from (lew Brunswick.

The steamer Morro Castle, from Havana, arrived hure to-day with ('apt. Maury and 41 survivors of the Bienville disaster. The number of passengers saved thus far is re ported at 3S ; number of officers and crew, 46 ; making 84 in all known to have been saved. Number known to have been drowned, 0 ; number missing from boat No. ;"), and probably drowned, 10; number un heard from, "24. CAPTAIN JIAUKY MAKES THE .KOI JX)\V IX(1 REPORT : " To the Agent of the Pacific Mail Steam ship Company :—I have to report the total loss by tire of the chartered steamship Bieu ville, under my command. On the morning of August 15th, at sea, in latitude 25"21" N., longitude 74-15 \V\, at 3.450'c10ck, the officer of the watch called to me and re ported that the ship was on fire in the fore hold. 1 gave orders to call the crew to fire quarters quietly, and to have the pumps started and steam turned on the fire ex tinguishers leading into the fore-hold and forward freight-room, at the same time keep ing the ship off before the wind and hauling down the head sails, leaving the head of the jib up, and stoj>ping the engines, 1 had hose laid down to the fore-hatch, and endeavored to get below with water, but so great a volume of smoke came out of it that it was necessary to close the hatch innnedi- i ately. I then had the hatches battened over with wet awnings, and started the hose at the ventilator, but the steam pumps were quickly disabled, and the water cut off. I

Meanwhile the fire extinguishers and buckets Avere used to keep the fire under,and the boats were made ready and manned. The large life boats were provisioned, and a full supply of life-preservers served to all the passengers

At 5.30 I thought the fire was so far smothered that I would be able to run for Watling's Island, one of the Bahamas, about sixty-fiVe miles distant, but soon discovered that the fire was working its way through both sides of the ship, abreast the boilers, and that it would be necessary to abandon the vessel.

The passengers were then disembarked, the women and children being equally di vided, as nearly as possible, in each boat. Two of the boats were safely lowered and sent off; the third was also sent off, but it caught under the counter of the ship, and was capsized. All in her were soon rescued, and placed in another boat.

At seven a.m. all but two boats had been loaded and sent off, and as there were still more persons on board than these boats could hold the small boats were sent off witli pas sengers to be distributed among the other boats which had the lightest loads, from which they were to return to the ship. By that time the liames had gained such headway, and the heat was so intense, that all the remaining persons hastened into the boats as quickly as possible, and at last 1 left the ship as the flames were bursting from the cabins. By this time the largest life-boat had filled and capsized, and the sea was increasing. By the aid of the wreck of the stoven lite boat, which was floating round, the boat was righted and bailed. Seven or ten persons, however were lost. AX ACCOUNT IS GIVEN OF THEIR VOYAGE AFTERWARDS and of the landing of the passengers at Nassau. One boat -was capsized in the surf, and nine persons drowned. None of the list are known except Mrs Brander and her three children. All the bodies were re covered and buried by the authorities at Eleuthera Island. It is certain that over forty persons are missing, and there is no doubt that twenty were drowned ; while one boat, with thirty persons, has not yet been heard from. THE PURSER'S STATEMENT. The Purser gives the following particulars of the disaster : The Bienville had a crew of (35 and 72 passengers. At 4 a.m. on August 15th, the fire was discovered below the steer age deck. The pumps were set to work and a stream was forced into the hold, but the donkey engine broke down. Water was then supplied by hand pumps, but with little avail. Lines of men were thereupon formed, who passed buckets of water, which were poured on the fire, which by this time had gained great headway. Meantime the Captain ordered all the boats to be lowered. It soon became apparent that it would be impossible for them to save the vessel. The Captain ordered all to assemble on the quarter deck. Each boat -was filled quickly, and all of them provisioned and provided with life-preserv ers. Eighty-four persons were saved. The total known to be lost is nine missing from the fifth boat, and probably drowned ten. ORIGIN OV THE FIRE UNKNOWN. The fire broke out between decks, imme diately over the boilers, and not in the fore hold, as at first supposed. The Caj>tam is unable to give the origin of the fire. UIEXVILLE PASSENGERS BROUGHT BY THE MORRO CASTLE. The Morro Castle brought the follow ing named passengers per the Bienville :—■ H. Anthon, W. H. Woolrich, Mrs Barker, Nora Sulliyan, W. Burreughs, Jr., liufua Mead, George W. Baffy, O. Stoker, Christo pher Ortega, Pio Kosada, Mr Barney and Mr Lawlor. The Pacific Mail Steamship Company re ceived a telegram from Yokohama via Hong kong announcing that their steamship America, from San Francisco, August Ist, arrived at Yokohama August 24, and on the same night was burned to the water's edge. The Company are their own underwriters, consequently their loss is a severe one. Philadelphia, September 3.

Ned O'Baldwin, who was arrested last night, is held in §5,000 to keep the peace, and not to fight within the limits of this city. Up to nine o'clock this morning he had not obtained bail. Martin Kellackey, O'Baldwin's principal backer, is confined to his hotel by the injury of one his eyes. O'Baldwin being unable to obtain bail, was this morning taken to Moyamensing Prison, where he will probably remain until brought to this city on a writ of habeas corpus.

Mosgiel Tweeds, of Otago manufacture, are now in demand in the London market. They are a decided novelty, and excellent quality ; and yet at a distance of 1,000 miles from the place twheve they are produced, and from the people whose interest and profit it is to prefer the home production to the imported article, their excellence is discerned and appreciated before we bestow even a passing notice on the child of our own industry. Truly a Prophet hath no honor in his own country ; but it is not " colonial" to " sneeze at" a profit. The time has come when the nether extre ities of every New Zealand man and boy should be clothed in stuff of the home production. Samuel Coombes has just received a parcel of the above Tweeds from the manufactory, and not only hopes that they will be extensively sought for, but expects every public spirited man to "go in" for at least one pair of Mosgiel Tweed Trousers.
