Swat - rant promoted his monthly report, show ing•iliat the total windier of preens relieved in September by thegruardians and relief committer combieed had fella& erf t, 184,1;23, against 456,786 in January last. In the last week of September, of the total number of factory eper.itives 2,17,962 were working fall time, 104,198 were working slime, time, and 160,8:35 were out of work. The following is the report :—The returns for the month ending 26th September last shoe the following continued incenses in the amount of employment in the mills and manufac tories of the cotton districts : Full work. Out of work. Short time. L 2 St week fu July.... 935,917 121.710 170,20.0 „ August . 042.446 115, 90 171.635 rept. 0.1:',963 104,190 100.346 Of those on short tone a much larger proportion than is former mortis are now working more than three days. The gradual cessation of work in cocuoctioe with the harvest and other out-door employment has caused a slight increase in the number of operatives in the district. It u posaihle that many have returned on account of the want of persons skilled in certain branches of cotton manufacture, in which employment has recently increased, and in which the number of worker has bons reduced by emigration and dispersion to other districts. The reduction in recipients of relief during the last month has bre very renderable, there being now 5,963 fewer parlor partially ere wholly dependent upon the guardians • and in receipt of »lir 14,773 less from local committees only than in Aupst. Thus the decrease of the number relieved from both warms Ms been reedy end gradual throughout the year. The per tentage of distress upoo the populetion of each rims this month as compared with August is as follows :—Asbtou-under Lye, 191 against 241 ; Barton spoo•lrwell, against 31; Blackburn, 81 whist 81 ; Bolton, 6'3 whist ; Braley, 41 solar ; 13: k. 0 against ; Charley. 91 apart 91 ; Otiothon-on 51 spirt 6 8 ; trithser, 41 against 411; the !vide, 3'4 against 31; Gersten, 62 spirt 61 ; Glossop, 361 against 341 ; liadingder 81 against 91 ; Leerier, 3'B arrest 41; 3•4 against 3'4 ; Macclesfield, 4 - 7 against 51 ; Man. rester, 81 spirt 91 ; Oldham, 9* against 9 . 7 ; Pr estos, 6 4 16 against 18•6 ; Prestwich , 9tagaiest ; ltoolsdal 9 against 101 ; Saddleworth. 76 against 95 ; Salford, 51 awns; 61; Skiptoa.66 aguinst6l; Stockport, 101 whir • ; Tohnonien. 6'7 against ; Warriegtoe, 31 against 31: Wigan, 121 against 1311 The apparent change in the per tentage. of Ashtoomeder•Lyue and Glossop arises from the transfer of a certain poetise of the nitrate district, girded in the Glossop aura, to the charge of the Glosecip committee. The cruse which the ceatral executive com mittee have taken in providing for the payment of the school fora of children of tree who are in receipt of relief has secured the uninterrupted attendance at school of many who would otherwise have bra unable to attend. There are still, however, 21,843 for whom payments have Ss he near. The monthly experiture of the local Com mitre is now 27,4391., or 10,9971 lass than ia last month.

The sear approach of the Newmarket wherein the two great autumn handicaps will be derid ed , inereames the interest attaching to, and intensifies the spirit of specu lett* upon them. Although much of the time of subeeriben —who mustered in force—was necessarily devoted to settling on past eveuts, when an opportunity offered, the layers embraced it to make their "offers," which in many insmuces were accepted ; still it could not be said that the market had auy specific tone until the heavier portion of the business of tuyinx and receiving had been got through. When betting commenced in earnest, Lianess was decidedly the " lion" of the der for the Cesuswitch, and after a mint of money bad been invested at 10 to 1, the fondness of her supporters was not diminished, and, determined to "get on, they lucked the mere so freely that she left off at 8 to 1, few of norm being disposed to lay the price.

For the Cambridgeshire Catch-'em-Alive still maintained his position at the bead of the list of quotations, and indeed this afternoon touched • shorter price than hitherto, 12 to 1 having been accepted about him.

The defence was that the plaiu tiff had not properly fed or taken we of the dogs ; that one had died immediately alter it was removed, and that the others had been rendered worthless. In answer to questions put by Mr. Pawls, who appeared for the defendant, the plaintiff said that he kept the dogs in a warm, clean place, and gave them as much tart/opined and " middliop" as they would eat, and he also seer. &locally gave them some skim milk.
