FINE ARTS. wt. sAsrs PICTURE, " EMMAUS." A picture with this title is to be seen at the British Gallery in Pall-mall. This is another of the ex lialsticas of • single painting got up by "the trade" to sub sine the sale of an intended engraving. There is little or SD *ICON to be found for the artist who steps out from the eempssy of his fellows sod mounts a pedestal in some select spot, where be can have an =dies= all to himself, and where with all the appurtenances of sombre drapery and artfully managed light, a sort of coup de theatre is peso. enter his picture is really a 'stagnant opus, upon which he has lavished hie choicest and most enthe- Eleatic inspirations. Everybody can understand, that a work like Mr. Holman Hunt's "Finding el the Saviour in the Temple" could not have been seen, as the painter desired it ought to be gem, in the glare of the Academy rooms, and plaited in the midst of a bevy of gaudy costume pictures. But this work of Mr. tisat's has evidently been thrown off from his rapid sad bailie brush without any [pest effort of his gains, and meals little of the earnest and serious sen timent which the subject demands. Nevertheless it is exhibited with every pomp end circumstance that the dealer so well knows bow to provide ; this, however, should not shield it from the bet to which all pictures of such pretensions have to sebmit What we feel to be so offensive and disappointing in pictures of this kind is, the showy theatrical style of the picturesque they exhibit in dealing with a sewed subject ; sad this, we images*, must be remarked, notwithstanding the highly coloured and enthusiastic description of the work Which is placed in the hands of the vtor. The picture, as would be guessed, is to be engraved, and in that form will be published by Mr. Turner, of Neworatle. SALE OF THE BICKNELL COLLECTION. This great event of the picture sale season, which bas been looked to with the greateet interest for acme weeks pest, came off at Christie and Manson's Rooms on Saturday Lea The rooms were crowded, so that many penmen were impelled to bid by telegraphic signs pamed on from the tap of the stairs. The prices realised foe the ten pictures by Turner amounted in all to 17,3611. 10a These prices were sot higher than was expected. The sound total of the sale, iarlading the sculpture, amounted to 56,001. MUSIC. ROYAL ITALIAN OPRILL 1 Verdi's Rioo letto was ptaformed on Saturday I night for the first time this seam This opera is in 1 more respects than one the chef d'aiirre of the composer. ', Twits subject, so toll of tragic horror, Verdi was indebted is /be genius of Victor Hugo, of whose celebrated plays , Ls Rai s'aia or, Ripoletto is a lyrical version, following the I miginal in every scene and every incident. The French ! dramatist seems to have inspired the Italian magician, Idiom work is intoned with a more than usual strength of gloomy energy. The Italian musician, moreover, has , boa even more fortunate than the French dramatist in the =Mr who represents the principal sharactar—the adorns nate jester, a man driven by grievous wrong and wanton metionely to the direst extremity of hatred and revenge. This character Ronconi has made him own, and has em bodied in a manner almost unrivalled on the tragic stage. ' It has become the fashion of late to talk too much about Min great actor's vocal defects. It is true that his voice ▪ne longer what it once was, either in quality of tone or With of intonation, and in some parte the falling off is painfully apparent. Bat the character of Rigoletto is net one of those. In seeing his touching and terrible pie. tare of criteria! love for his outraged daughter, mingled with suppressed bat burning rage and fury, we pennies nothing bat the power of the oarivalled tragedian, and ease nothing for the defects of the singer. And as to these de. /eels, they are much exaggerated by hypercriticism; for ffeseeei, oomidercd as a singer, is really a highly memo gashed artist. The new soprano, if dile. Fioretti, sea a very pleasing representative of the gentle and imharipy Oilda. There is a charming freehnem in the tones of bee youthful voice, and her style is pure, natural, and neaffected. Natalia is not (who could be!) an adequate siditate for Mario ; but he sang with much—sometimes tee mach—energy ; and be warbled the famous romance, "La donna e mobile" so well as to obtain an encore. Mae elm Didi6e and Taglialleo austsined their characters of Maddalena and Spamfacile with their usual excellence; and Melee quartet in Wriest scene—the gem of the opera—was homily moored. As a whole the; fine opera was well acted rmi well mug, and the performance deserved the applause ik received from a very tollhouse. CRYSTAL PALACE.-MAY•DA IT FESTIVAL. On Friday night, at Exeter-hall, there was a aelisareal of the choral pieces to be performed at the Crystal Palate on the Ist of May ; on which occasion Mendelmobn's Mlle for Racine's tragedy of 41/irilie is to be performed on a male of unprecedented magnificence. The orchestra is to eempries 196 violins and violas, 90 violoncellos and double -20 harps, and an adequate proportion of wind in skim:ants ; and the entire bend and chorus will consist of bleat 2.500 voices. la addition to the musk of Atka, it, the overtures com posed by Meverlueer and Aube: for the opening of the great International Exhibition on the let of May last will be performed in a manner calculated to produce a much greater effect than they did on that occasion.

On SAturday the Royal Botanical Society held Sok third and last exhibition of opriog Boners for 1863, which isearedenceess. The weather was delightful ; the bright sunshine, clear blue sky, and warm balmy atmosphere resembling much more the end ef May than the third week of April. The gardens are •ew is all their spring charms, ►nd, with the sodded attraction of a collection of blossoms and bilsesoming plants, contributed by the mast suconneful prefessiolal and amateur growers of the metropolitan area, attracted. as might be expected, a numerous as well as a haioriable company. Prominent amongst the exhibited Sewers were the roma, is whisk, as usual, the Paul, of Clbsehent and Waltham Creme, and the Turners of Slough, were the most successful competitors. The azaleas were enesedingly good, the auriculas and papillae were also de Earring of praise, but rhododendrons were both scares and indifferent, owing probably to the same cause which, m mopeds later flowers, added to the splendour of the show— via., the forwardness of the season. HORSHAM, DORKTHO, AND LIATHEETERAD RAIL WAY.—the ceremony of cutting the first sod of this new Los of r won performed on Saturday, at Horsham, by Seymour Fitzgerald, LP., the chairman of the corn gamy. in the presence of most of the directors and a large preporhoe of the MU of the neighbourhood. Although ik is intended to carry the line on to Leatherhead, and there to consent it with the Brighton system—an act for that perpres baring towed the Home of Common. in the 111.0 met session—parliamentary sanction has as yet only beau °Mailed for that portion of the project between Horsham and Dodds'. Commencing close to the existing railway Mimics at Horsham, the line proceeds northward for 13 odes, through Wareham ()ciley, Copal, and the Holm weed, at Mob of which places there will be stations. It is Imetaded that the line shall be worked by the Brighton Dom may, and as a bill is before parliament fat shortening the distance between Leatberbeed and London by leer miles, the whale distance frau Victoria Station $ Benham by this route will be 35 miles.

By this project, in addition to ournemee local advantages, a sew ma line will be established between London and Brighton. =g by Shoreham, Horsham, Dorking, and Leather which will be entirely distiact from the existing main Kw, and only a few mites longer.

SlR,—Public running was pretty well indicated by the result of the Two Thousand and On e Thousand Gainer" Saccharometer, Hospodue, 31accarom, o King of the Vale having e very right to fi nish before Blue Mantle, Rapid Rhone, Count Cavour, and Clanor, to carefully analyse their doings. Still, Hoepodar did not run up to his last year's form, or in any way carry out his patty's opinion of him, as Manual:a best him further than be did Valentine in the Craven week, and with the line through the latter they thought the winner was held safer by them than any other hone in the race. it was palpable the ch man did not like the hard ground, and li re was s urprising how King of the Vale struggled home ao well over it, as be was not nearly so perfect as the winner in condition. Sacebarometer certainly did not look quite fit, but it roust be recollected an immense stake has long been dependent on his winning the Derby, and it would hardly have been policy to bring him out in the highest state of perfection on Tuesday last, as it would be a chance, in the hard ground, whether be could get through the second preparation. He was fit enough, nevertheless, to make his enemies uneasy throughout the race, and ran eis well that be was a better favourite for the Blue Ribbon after than before his defeat. Whether he will stay the Derby course seems generally doubted, but I have no doubt on that point, and think he will get over the mile and a half at Epeom much better than the wiener, if he does sot beat Lord Clif deo. Melrose, the solitary representative of Whitewall, ran a bad horse, as did, in fact, all the York shiremen ; Rapid Rhone, Clarior, and Count Cavour likewise , finishin behind the five Southern bones, who were all Ne g wmarket bred, only Saccharometer not being trained in the ground for the actual race. Having in the winter handicapped Saccharometer at tist 131b,Hospodar at Bst 1016, and Blue Mantle, Rapid Rhone, Count Carom., lied Marker as inferior to the pair, my measurement of this ' year's throe-yew-olds has been carried out in the first great levent they met in ; Maccaroni, King of the Vale, and Melrose were " dark " horns at the time, and in my last Marearriei wan put down as equal to the best of the above, if I dared to follow his defeat of Valentine a fortnight back. The One Thousand Guineas afforded another in stance of the correctness of my handicap of last year's two. year.olds, on Lady Augusta was put down at Sat 61b ' Tornado, 814, and Cadean, 7t l l lb ; Amelia, Gold Dust, Carle, and Tease-me-Not being left out altogether, as the handicap only ranged from Set 31b to 7st 101 b, and these were ant good enough, in my opinion, to be iocluded. Flying Fish, Marigold, and Crofton Las there was no measuring last year, and the first- named most be considered decidedly the mooed best in the Me, if not the best, it being on the cards that distance will prove to be her forte. In fact, if the Derby winner did not run in the Two Thousand, that cd the Oaks seem. to have figured in the One Thousand. The other events were of too tame a character to require notice, as they said actually nothing definite in regard to the Derby, and the only Chester Cup animal that presented itself during the week was Fantail, who bra tint to make her appearance at York. The York Spring Meeting, on Tuesday and Wednesday, will be well worth assisting at, end there will be an interest ing struggle for the Great Northern Handicap, two miles, although only Fantail, Dubliner, Picador, Venison, the Young Melbourne colt, Queen of Trumps, fladdiniiton, Adventurer, and Manfred have been backed as yet, the latter having recently " gone out," owing to • defeat in his trial. To choose from these it looks like • match between Fantail and Lord Zetlaod, the latter gentle man having two strings to hisbow in Piccador and Carbineer now that the rumours of the heavy weights break-down have proved groundless. The Craven Stakes Comet should secure, in the absence of the Derby horse Stockman ; hot , the Zetlankit is too hazardous to make • selection for ; and the Mike MISS Plate is not a public IMO. The KlWlS mire Plate, with the Eglintou Stakes, on the second day, Lord Stamford has Livingstone engaged is, and there seems .thing good 'cough to beat him. The same colours will also be very dangerous for the Losideshorough Cup, as Bertha is extremely "well in," with Queen of Trumps and Ace of Clubs also. The Flying Dutchman'a Handicap, one sae and a quarter, General Hess has been reserved ter, since the City sad Suburbia was decided, and he has only the Senorita colt to fear appetite*, it being a near thing between the two, es they run at about racing weights, and the young can "split" Xsocaroni and Valentine in the Craves week. Salisbury, ma Thursday sod Friday, will not attract many besides the local 'tables, espedsZy for the four 2-yrold races only one of which, The Salisbury Stales, has a public performer engaged of any pretensious, Tomfoolery having run forward for a loog way in the Molly Carew at Epsom. The Wiltshire and Loogust are the priocipal handicaps, and these may be won by the Naomi filly (or Sycophant), and Jades reepectively.—l am, ho. METEOR. EQUITY COIJICTS.—Aran 25. (Before the Lord Chancellor.) COMFIT r. ANDERSON. This was an appeal from the Master of the Rolls. The question involved was whether the process of this court could be effectually served is Scotland out of the juriadie tion of the Court of Moony in England,—the subject matter of the suit being in Sootland, and all the defen dants being resident in Scotland. The case was argued MOO timetaince, and judgment postponed. The Lord Chancellor now gaTeludgmeot, and said that the question turned on the 2 William IV., c. 33. which enabled the Court of Chancery to mire its process on any persons within its jurisdiction who were out of the LT sited Kingdom, and 4 and 5 Will. IV., c. 82, which gave power to the Courts of Chancery in England and Ireland to serve their process ou persons residing out of their territorial jurisdiction, but it was limited power, end confined to parti cular kinds of suits. By the tenth of the consolidated order. of the Courts of Chancery, and by the seventh rule, it was ordered that where a defendant was residing out of the jurisdiction of the court, on application to the court, and on its being satiafied as to the pies where he was to he found, a copy of the bill in a suit might be served on the defendant in such place or country. This order, however, must be bounded by the limits of the authority of the court, and it re ferred owl to each suits as were specified in the act of 4 and 5 William IV., c. 82. If, acting on this order, the jurisdiction of the court was enlarged, its authority and powers would be enlarged, and it might take on Wulf authority w hit belonged to the courta of common law or Divorce. The ceder which was made to Nerve the bill in the present case on the defendant in Scotland we under the circumstances beyond the power of this court, as the suit was not one which came within the description of those coatained in the acts 2 William IV. e. 33, and 4 and 5 Wil liam IV., a 82. It was Mid that this was immaterial, as the defewdsat bad appeared under ; but although it was true this had =done, and that he bad not moved to be dis charged from the process, yet he bad downed to the jurir diestion of the court. If the defendant was resident in a foreign country, and the snit did not come within the de scriptiou of those referred to in the acts above mentioned„the demurrer ought to be allowed, and the only effect of his appearance was to throw it on the defendant to show that the suit was not such an one as came within the jurisdiction of the court. Looking to the circumstances of this cam he must give a decision in con. curreoce with that of the Master of the Rolls, in the de fendant's favour, and dismiss the bill with costa RN ran BEM= PRONTDENT FIZZ AND UTZ ALSORANCI CON PANT.-11 PASTE HOLZMAN. This was an appeal from se order of Vies-Chancellor Kinderaley, by which a Dr. Coleman had been placed on the list of cootributories under the winding-up of the above company. The ease was argued some little time ago, and judgment postponed. The Lord Chancellor now gave lodgment, and said that in Jsaeary, 1852, the British Provident Company was desirous of having transferred to it the badmen of the Diadem Fire and Life Assurance Company. Dr. WWl= was a holder of 200 shares in the Diadem Company, and was one of in medical officers. Mr. Sheridan, the managing director of the British Provident, was desirous of willies shies of that company to shareholder, of the Diadem ; and be bevies pressed Dr. Coleman to that effect, it was arranged between them that in consideration of Coleman's tranafering hi 200 shares in the Diadem and paying 1001., be should receive 300 shares in the British Provident, and be appointed wee of its medicaloffioers. Coleman was iodated by Sheridan to execute the deed of settlemest of the British Provident fee the 300 shares ; but he again stipulated that he should become one of the medial officers, and should not be removed from that office except for misconduct, which was woo iodic). Sheridan afterwards endenvoured to secede from the agree ment that Coleman's appointment should be permanent, and an angry correspondence mimed between them, in which Coleman desired that his came should be erased from the list of shareholders, and Sheridan agreed, by letter, that the shares should be considered ea forfeited, and Cole man's signature to the deed of 'settlement be treated as a mllay. _There was no entry of them trsaiactiooa in the books of the company except that 300 shares bad been allotted to Coleman• but he emu never reqaired to pay any deposit or reCeived any notice of his being a shareholder of the British Provident till the affair of the company passed into other hands, and he received a Weer in November, 1858, demanding payment of 6001. for deposits and calls on 300 shares ; to which he replied by denying that be was a shareholder. His shares in the Diadem were not transferred to the British Provident, and the cau naiad him rested only on his signature to the deed of settlement. The date of the winding up of the company was March, 1861, sad on his being plod on the list of oostributories it was contended on behalf of Coleman that he should be re lieved from any liability, on the ground that his signature to the deed 111111 obtained by the rmarepreuntation of She ridan as agent of the company. The inquiry now was whe ther the status of a shareholder was complete in Coleman's case before the winding up, and that depended on certain provisions of the deed of settlement. His lerdahip stated at length the different clauses of the deed applicable to the case, and maid that the conclusion to be drawn from them wan that the contract between Sheridan and Coleman, if it was binding in equity, which be was of opinion it was not, was not within the power of the directors, aid might be repudiated by the shareholder, and treated as a nullity ; that Coleman was never a complete shareholder, though he had signed the deed, as be had paid nay purchase money, and had never been seemed on the registry ; that the re gistry of shareholders was co nclusive evidence of the holding of shares by any person • and that if Cole man was a shareholder it was competent to the directors at an extraordinary meeting to declare the shares forfeited, which Sheridan had promised should be done, and that Coleman should not be placed on the registry. He was, therefore, of opinion that Colonise never was a shareholder of the company in conformity with the provisions of the deed, that there was no binding contract on hint to accept the shares, mid that his name most be removed from the list of contributories. EX PARTS ?RAWL —BANERCPTCT. In this case an application had been made to allow the bankrupt's discharge, the commisioner in the court below having felt a difficulty in doing so, because the bankrupt's certificate had been refused some years ago. The case bad been postponed for oossideratioe.' The Lord Chancellor said that the ground on which the commimioser hesitated to reverse the decision of his pre decessor was that the bankrupt had improperly obtained credit from one of his creditors, in not having handed him over a security, but had mo the property which was to be the eecurit7 for credin c r i s bankrupt had linos, by his exertions, paid o ff hia creditors and the mortgagee ; the property was now free sod subject to the lien of the particular oreMtor io question if he was entitled to it. He (the Lord Chancellor) had examined the evidence to see if anything bad been done by the bankrupt to render it unfitting that he should be discharged under the now law of bankruptcy. He bad been unable to find any such thing. but, on the coutrary, the bankrupt's conduct had been creditable to him, sod he was of opinion that he ought to receive his discharge. 001JAT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.—Aram 25. Sittings in Banco.—(Betty Lord Chief Justice Cockburn, and Justices Crompton, Blankbum and Mellor.) =MN AND DTBIDUS V. TNN REV. D. JINIIMINS. Tide was an appeal from the decision of certain justices in petty passions at St. Austell, in CornwalL Oo the 3rd of June last the rev. respondent preferred as information spinet the appellants, ElantoolKirkin. James Hurtable. and George Colonel, under the Vagrant Aet, charging that the appellants, on the 7th of May previous, were found in the respondent's dwelling-house at night for • certais unlawful purpose, to wit, for felonioudy stealing and converting to their own use certain provisions of, and beloogiug to, the said respondent, and they were duly convicted and sentenced to one month's imprisonment in Hodmia Gaol. The respon dent is the vicar of Gornto ! in Cornwall, sod his house hold emulate of himself, his daughter, and three female servants. On the night in question, after prayers at ten o'clock, the servants retired to their bed-room, sad the re spondeot aed his daughter to their respective bed-rooms, but having came to suspect that all was sot going on right with his servants, the rcepoodeet and his daughter Game down stoke again, sad kept watch.

They were greatly alarmed at the sudden and unexpected appsneoe of the parson. and the men being anxious to maps date tios and leave their meet hearts to brave the matter out, made a retreat the best way they could.

The appellants were there without the defendant's knowlege. Coleus) had been paying his addresses to one of the respondent's female servants for about three months, but it was shown that he had not been known to visit her at night, and Heatable was courting the schoolmistress. The parson discharged his three female servants sad forgave the schoolmistress, but proceeded against the appellants under the Vagrant Act. It was contended for the appellants that they were not on the respondent's premises for an unlawful purpose as contemplated by the act. The magistrates thought they were, and convicted them. This case was thereupon stated for the opinion of the court, and the question was whether the purpose for which they were found guilty in going and consuming the respondent's pprtoovisi against his knowledge and consent was an unlaw. fell purpose within the meaning of the act. Mr. Kerslake, Q.C., appeared in support of the convic tion ; Mr. Field for the appellants. Mr. Kerslake urged that the offence with which the sp. pollards was charged was larceny. It had been decided that where a servant handed over the property of her master to another it was as much • felony ea if the third party had taken it. The Lord Chief Justice—The difference here is, asking the policeman in to have • piece of cold meat. (La'ughter.) If that was a felony the magistrates would have enough to do. Mr. Kerslake—lt is • matter of serious consequence to householders that servants should not be permitted to follow these practices and get ascot free. Mr. Justice Crompton said the evidence of felony was very slight, and without that it was no offence. Mr. Justine Blackburn said it mast be very petty larceny indeed to bring this case within it. The Lord Chief Justice said it was • troth impropriety. The policeman ought to be turned out of the force and the cook out of the house ; but it wee • different thing to pro- ceed against the man under the Vagrant Act. Mr. Justice Crompton—Might it not be that the refresh ments were incidental to the love-making! (Laughter.) They go to see their sweethearts, and take a little tea. Is it to steal the victuals when the main object is affection! (Laughter.) Mr. Kerslake—Festive the affection is induced by the hope of having the victuals. Mr. Justice Mellor—Two of the men were eourtinf, and it would appear the policeman was present to see fair play between them. (Larghter.) Mr. Kanlake—And started off without his hat, coat, and boeta. The Lord Chief Justice—No doubt he was conscious of having acted with gross impropriety. Mr. Justice Blackburn said, common sense revolted against calling this • (slimy. It was very difficult how to draw the line. Mr. Justice Crompton—lntention is a material element its felony. The question is whether these men did not go to the respondent s' house for love. The Lord Chief Justioe —Can you say there is any animas furatidi in the cook's asking • tea party ? It is no doubt • gross impropriety. Mr. Kerslake said it was different when it was done in bread daylight. The Lord Chief Justice—l doubt if it could be done then. There would be great difficulty in smuggling a policeman into the house in the day time. (Laughter.) Mr. Justice Crompton thought the clergyman could not take much credit in carrying the men before the magis trates and giving them a month's imprisonment. They would have got off much better before a jury. Mr. Kerslake said surely their lordships would not hold that •butler would be right in having in friends and con- sinning his master's best Madeira and port. The Lord Chief Justioe—Certaialy not Mr. Justice Mellor said there was strong evidence that they went there for the refreshments, from one escaping without his hat coat, and boots. Mr. Field having been heard spinet the conviction, The Lord Chief Justice said the conviction must be quashed. The magistrates were asked to find, by the infor mation, that the men were on the premises for • felonious intentioe, bat they had given the go by to that and had found them guilty only of being there for the unlawful pm , pass of oonsuming the provisions. He did not say that that was not an unlawful purpose within the meaning of the act, but that was not the question they had to decide. The other learned judge concurred. Conviction quashed.

The election of a member to serve in parliament for the united boroughs of New Radnor, Knighton, Cafe Lips, Knuckles, end Pmeteign, in the room of the late Right lion. Sir G. Cornmeal Lewis, took place on Sera. day is the little village borough situate to the midst of the Radnorshire kills. About a con* of hundred assambled. sad iu defences to memory of persons lamented statesman the proceediop were conducted with as little popular demonstration as possible. The Rev. G. R. Turner, high bailiff of the borough of New Radnor, conducted the election, sod paid • tribute of respect to the memory of the late Sir G. C. Lewis. After the usual formalities, Mr. Prichard proceeded to put in nominatioe Richard Green Price, Faq., of Norton Manor, as a fi t and proper , pewit to represent the borough in parliament No other candidate being proposed the High Bailiff declared that gentleman duly elected, amidst loud cheers. Mr. Price, after some preliminary remarks, rid, with regard to hie political opinioes, the electors would have an opportunity of seeing what were his votes in parliamea sod whether he was in fact the liberal man which he professe d to be.

He did not think that at the present moment it was worth while for him to go into any political question. lie hoped be should soon be more alive to the subject that would come before parliament than be then was, but he might tell them that he had enjoyed the I confidence of their late talented member, and that his °pink* were, as his votes in parliament would be, very much, nay. the very same as his. (Cheers.) As to question of civil sad religious liberty, when it was • question between the many and the few, he should vote for the many. He was a " Liberal Coeservative: as he had stated in his address. Hs also told them in his address that be was a supporter of Lord PeJmeritoe's government ; but perhaps some people would remark that that was not saying much, because they how many respectable men in the oppositioa—atroog con seertives—who were said to have a fears towards Lied Palmerston.

He believed that had it not been for the Lewis family the Radnor boroughs would not now have a voice in parliament, but would have been placed in Schedule Aof the Reform Act. A vote of thanks to the High Bailiff for hie conduct of the election or. chided the proceedings, which occupied about an hour.

COTTON.—Ltvraroor, Arm %.--ire have to report • moderate demand today, with • dull market. The sake are 4,000 Wm, of which 1,000 are far export and apeculatios. COTTON GOODS.—Mascsxgrint, APRIL 25. The business in this market for rod* both in yarn and cloth, has gradually decreased from day to day throughout the week. At the same time • number of spinners and mass lecturers having bees placed ander contracts which will occupy weeks, and in some cases months to complete, sane pause of this kind wan to be expected. The contracts placed by shippers and merchants in the Eastern trade have natu rally sent up prime • good deal, and they are indisposed to follow up thole orders, so as to still further strengthen the market. Fresh advice', should they be of an encouraging nature, may give a further impulse to the market, but in the mean time the angry tone adopted in certain quarters on the course pursued by American cruisers is calculated to arrest any disposition to business very seriously. It will be seen that so large a business in cotton as 64,000 bales last week and 56,000 daring the present have produced little insomniac on prices at Liverpool, and the feeling which operates u • check there suturally mute on this market. Holders of cotton, is fact, are free sellers, and in this market the holders of cloth have shown • similar disposition for the last day or two. There is no pressure to sell, but prices are not so srm as they were at, the beginning of the week. It is the same in some cleaves of yarns, including twist and piooops for the home trade, which in some cases may be bought perhaps at Id. per lb. less than last weak. The market closes exceedingly flat in all departments of the cotton trade. WOOLLEN CLOTS.—Lane, Arum Z.—The markets thia morning were only thinly attended by buyers, and tran sactions were limited. A few diagonals changed hands, but the demand was smaller than it has been of late, and the supply larger ; rates, is consequent., exhibited a decline. For other spring fabrics there was so great inquiry, sad the White market was very quiet. - - - BARDWARL—Braimucthait, Aram 25.—Trade in this town Moot quite so good as it was a week or two ego; there is, nevertheless, sufficient of steady animation to indicate that busker is in no way whatever be' ug forced, and that the steadiness by which it has been marked for some time past is likely to be maintained. Here, notwithstanding a slight lull, there are few instances in which maaufacturen are not working full time, and if the fedora' orders are small, they have kept up steadily. As to the state of particular branches, there lira bees the least possible change of late ; the tube-makers are working full time, and for all descrir Slow of wise there is a sufficient demand to keep the mills going. As to the state of other branches there is nothing to call for remark, because in all the leading trades business has bees and in tolerably active, whatever slight depression there may be in the lea important branches. The state of trade in the adjoining districts continues satisfactory, as has been the case for several months : the amount of unem ployed labour routinize' meaty, and most of the large ma. nufirathring establishments are in full operation. Such is the case on the Dudley and Stourbridge side of the district, also in the neighbourhood of Wednesbury. In railway fit tings there Is a good amount of business doing, and the orat ing trade is pretty brisk. At I)arlsston the trade is not quite so active as it was earlier in the year ; the chain trade is also suffering to some extent from the stoppage of the American orders. The iron trade in this district is • little slack, some of the second-class makers being rather short of order, 90 that the works are partially standing. For plates and sheets of best brands there is s good demand at the trade prices. At two or three of the works the puddler' who have asked an advance of wages are still out.
