4 - - THE HYDE-PARK REFOILII MEETING. The general council of the Reform League haying I;4:social meeting on Friday evenini ntr unsabse l ui l Y • resolution to persevere in bob • the above meeting, in spite of the proclamation of • Richard Mayne, the demonstration committee met on Saturday afternoon at the office of the leag.ne, Adelphi-terrace, Strand, and sat until a late hour settling the final arrange ments, of which the following is a summary :—The various branches of the league and its friends will assemble at six o'clock on Monday evening at the following spots : NinsbuiTounare, Onirenwell-peen, Islington-green, East India Doak Oates, the Horns, Kennington ; Sloane spare ; Red Cap Camden Town ; the church , Hen sangton ; and Victoria-park ; while the members of lb* London Working Men's Association, an aasocia *on distinct from the league, but who, since the issuing of the notice of Sir Richard Mayne, have deter mined as a body to take part with the Reform League in Ike demonstration, will assemble at the west side of Lin eoliis-inn-fields. 'These bodies will all march in procession, bonded by a bran band and distinctive banners, to the perk so timing their departure from their various locali ties as ail to arrive at the Marble Arch at about seven o'clock. Each procession will be under the direction of a member of the demonstration committee, distinguished by a blue; red and green scarf, the colours of the league, and =eh committee-man has received full instructions as to the coprse to be pursued by the body under his command fa the event of the meeting in the park being pre vented by the pollee. Should this be the case each procession will be reformed and proceed to Trafalgar square, where the meeting will be held. Each =amities-man has strict orders to see that the body =der his command avoid coming into any collision with the police, in which he is to be assisted by the branch ocantelttee, who will all be distinguished by a badge of blue, red, and green, with the word " Reform" is the centre, worn on the breast. None of the branch bodies are to interfere with the negotiations that may pas sably take place with the police authorities in the park, but this delicate part of the business is to be left in the hands of the executive council of 'the laspe, and its chair man, Mr. E. Beales. The meeting, if held in the park, will take place in the open space of ground lying . between the Marble-arch and Kensington-gar dens, facing the Bayswater-road. The council have made ample arrangements to meet any cocain- F . that may arise, but as these arrangements entirely - - is otulliPOnuthglieta e tti xpedi tnd e e n te to en m u a p b e y t t h h e e m po p li u r li a c ut n hori e authorities, seed - of the meeting are intended to be short ; th ey upon will chit of an address from the chairman, and the pro wsatof one resolution, printed copies of which are to be distributed amongst the people, and when the show of landli is to be taken the time will be announced by sound of ti'ampet. Meetings of the members of the league hranchos in the various districts were held on Satb, night, at which the above arrangements were reported The arrangements made by the authorities are kept very secret; but, " from information received," it appears that the whole available force of the police is to be called into requisition, of which a strong body is to patrol the park to keep the people who may there assemble in motion, while an ther strong body is to be kept in reserve at the Magazine Bar racks and other convenient places in case their services are required, the whole being under the immediate superin tendence of the chief commissioner. The soldiers are to be kept in barracks, and ready for service if called upon. It is stated that it has not yet been decided whether • cordon of police shall be placed at each of the park gates to prevent the entrance of the people after a certain hour, but at all events no procession is to be allowed to enter the park, nor will any flap or music be permitted to enter , nor will any number of people be allowed to congregate together. The greatest activity pre vailea throughout the whole of Saturday at Scotland yard; but the utmost secrecy was preserved. It is stated, however,ino interference will take place with the assembling of the people in the localities above men tioned, but the attention of the police will be entirely con centrated on the park. It was stated at the League-ofßee on Saturday that in the event of the meeting being stopped in the park, • body of gentlemen, entirely unconnected with the league, are prepared to take such steps as will bring the question as to the right of public meeting in the parks to a legal line. —Observer. Thb Secretary of the Reform League has received the following letter from Mr. Bright :—" Rochdale, July 19. —Dear Sir,—l thank your council for the invitation to the meeting intended to be held in Hyde-park on Monday next. I cannot leave home for some days to come, and therefore cannot be in London on the 23rd inst. I see that the tablet of the metropolitan police force has announced his intention to prevent the holding of the meeting. It appears from, this that the people may meet in the parka for every purpose but that which ought to be most important and most dear to them. To meet in the streets is inconvenient, and to meet in the parks is unlawful,—this is the theory of the police autho rities of the metropolis. You have asserted your right to meet on Primrose-hill, and in Trafalgar-square. I her after Monday next no one will doubt your right to meet in Hyde-park. If a public meeting in a public park is denied you, and if millions of intelligent and honest men are denied the franchise, on what foundation does our liberty rest, or is there in the country any liberty, but the tole ration of the ruling class! This is a serious question, but it is necessary to ask it, and some answer must be given to it.—l am, very respectfully yours, JOHN BRIGHT." The following correspondence has been sent us for pub lication : TO THZ RICHT HON. SPENCER H. WALPOLE, H.P. Bir,—l have the honour to submit to your notice a copy st the enclosed resolutions; and hope the meeting will not be disturbed by the police--I am, sir, your obdient servant, T. MAam. JUNIB. 6, l'embridge-gardens, Bayswater, July 21. " INVITING IN HTDZ-PARK. "At a meeting of the committee to vindicate the right of public meeting in the royal parks held this day, July 21st, T. Mason Jones, Esq. in the chair, it was resolved unanimously, ' That her 'Majesty's Secre tary of State for the Howe Department, in prohibiting the proposed reform meeting in Hyde-park having claimed on behalf of the crown an unlimited tliecletionary power with regard to properties vested in it, and that the crown can of its sole will prevent the people from holding public meetings in the parks, this committee denies that the crown has any such power, and has determined to test the question by holding a public meeting in favour of reform in Hyde-park on Monday evening, the 23rd inst., at seven o'clock." Resolved — That a copy of the above resolution be transmitted by the chairman to her Majesty's Secretary of State for the Home Department.' (Signed) " T. MABON JONF-9, Chairman." Home Department, July 21, 1866. Sit,— I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your note enclosing a copy of certain resolutions intended to be proposed at a meeting in Hyde-park. After the state ment which I felt it my duty to make in the House of Commons I had hoped that those who had proposed to convene that meeting would have foreborne from calling it together. Should they still persevere in their intention, which I trust they will not, I have no other course left open.to me but to desire the police to act on the notice issued by Sir Richard Mayne.— I am, air, your obedient servant, S. H. WALPOLL T. Mason Jones. Esq. - TO THE RIGHT HON. SPENCER N. WALPOLE, M.P. Sir,—l have the honour to acknowledge your letter of this date, in answer to mine enclosing copies of re solutions. I think you will find on referring to my letter that these resolutions are not intended to be proposed at the Hyde-park meeting, but were passed at • committee meeting to-day. As I am advised that we have the legal right to hold the proposed meeting, I beg most respectfully to inform you that, notwithstanding your prohibition, the meeting will be held in Hyde-park on Monday evening. I regret exceedingly that you are still determined to place yourtelf in a position of wanton antagonism to the people ; for if, unfortunately, any collision should take place be tween them and the police—and a collision will take place if the meeting is forcibly interfered with then the blame will rest entirely with you,. and be assured the country will call you to a strict account, and you will find that her Majesty's advisers have incurred a grave and solemn responsibility by thus endeavouring to deprive the English people of one of their most sacred, valuable, and ancient rights—• right to the exercise of which they owe their best liberties—the right of public meeting for free, peaceful, and constitu tional political discussion. You say you would not interfere with.the meeting if it were held elsewhere; but I ask where are the masses of your unenfranchised countrymen to meet' Heady all the open places in the metropolis have been enclosed. Sir Richard Mayne forbade the lest meeting in Trafalgar•square, on the ground that it would ir.temmt the tnittic in the streets. The Lord Mayor objected to the meeting of the Working Men's Association before the Royal Exchange, for the same reason. You shut the people out from the parks. Where, then, are the people to meet' 'What is the use of admitting a right in the abstract, if yen practically prevent the exercise of that right? You .have based your prohibition on the ground that the proprietary title of what are termed crown lands is vested in the crown, and that consequently the crown has A discretionary power with regard to them. To this the committee which I represent does not demur, but we do demur to the extraordinary claim you put forward on behalf of the crown—namely, that it has an absolute and unlimited power over the lands in question. If such were the case, the crown could transfer, shot up, or appropriate to its own use all the parks in London. But can it do so? If it cannot, then where is the act of parllanient authorising the reservation of the royal parks, and especially of Hyde-park, to the purposes of recrea tion.and amusement to the exclusion of all other purposes? The meeting which you so arbitrarily prohibit has for its object the political enfranchisement of millions of your unrepresented fallow-subjects—a matter of quite as much importance as a ride in Rotten-row, an evening's pro menoe a great exhibition, or even a volunteer review. Therks are the property of the nation, held by the erotica in trust for the benefit of the people. To assert, theiiiors, as you have done, that the people bare no right to Use their own property for an object in which they feel a vital interest is a stretch of despotic power to which we will not submit, until we have an authoritative de eision on the question by the highest tribunal in the land. It is a gratuitous insult to the people to assase and THE EXPRESS, MONDAY assert, se Blr Richard 'Mayne has done, that the meeting will be riotous and disorderly. The quiet, orderly, and well-conducted meetings recently held in Trafalgar /10We are the best proof that no violation of the law will take place unless the police commit it, and those who should be pease- n booms pease-breakers. I should have thong t that it was your duty to prevent dis turbance, not provoke it ; and I therefore make an Gamest appeal to you to reconsider your decision at the last mo ment, and prevent this U.llllo4lMly and unwise interference with the inalienable rights of the English people.—l am, sir, your obedient servant, T. Maws Josv.e. 6, Pembridge-gardens, Bayswater, July 21. *parting intelligence. WINCHESTEOITrHAMPTON, AND HII2aINGDON. TO THE =ROB 07 THE =man. SlR,—Has the mighty one fallen, and the crack of his day followed in the path of oat modern turf wonders, in defeating the cleverest efforts made to keep him on his lags for two years in 'accession Tlais has been the vital question of the last few hours since the news was spread that Gladiateur had stumped up at bat, and could not possibly start for the Goodwood Cup. Standing at odds on him for many days, his going was a sore blow to the public ; and if the alarm is really not a Wee one the sooner he is struck out the better, as there was quite enough —and more than enough—said about his not starting for this same cup last year, when he was well. Ilia absence would leave the race very open, for there is not another great "Cup " home engaged, unless Cambuscan or Archi medes can be deemed one, or Regalia is " right ;" and the prize would have to be contested by such sa Windham, Monkey, Dslby, the Duke, Janitor, Corsair, and Tourma. lin, or as many of them as are " well on the 'day." Janitor ran like staying in the Derby, and it must not be forgotten how the Duke compassed the Diteh-in at Newmarket last April there being no doubt that he was "off " when BlLnd ran away from him at Ascot. The latter met more than his match at Stamford in Tormentor, who is nut, un fortunately, in the Goodwood Cup, or her great staying powers would entitle her to the position of first favourite, if she did not take the Frenchman's place in the market, Her double victory was the feature of the past week's rating, which was marked by some very strange doings, as we must expect these times, when the s port is left almost entirely to the gambling classes and owners of horses who rem for profit. We shall have to wait for Goodwood, no doubt, before seeing the correct form of certain stables down south ; and hence I shall touch but lightly on the meet ings of the current week, chief of which are the two in Hants on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, and the rising a ff air at Huntingdon on Thursday and Friday, although there are more than half a-dozen others among the " fixtures," and Radcliffe and Chesterfield will assume some imperiouce in their district. The followers of the Special, Midis. colt, Potomac', and Black Prince stables are sure to muster in force at the southern reunions, and perhaps the discovery may be made what are really " alive" for the Goodwood Stakes before they are over, by the operations effected. Both the Special and the Prince are in 'the Hampshire Handicap at Winchester, but neither is likely to show, and the latest performances of Pearl Diver and Ackworth were so bad that she talent must look to the brothers Goater to produce the winner, there being no occasion to travel far beyond Brahma if he is the Simon Pure. The Citizens' Plate is quite • ques tion what certain local stables mean to go or save for Goodwood ; and the same may be observed of the Second Biennial and Grange Park Stakes, both two-year-old races, over the five furlong T.Y.C. for it is only a matter of Julius starting (very doub tful), in either instance, so moderate are his opponents, of whom Haidee in one case and Jeannie Deans in the other are about the best. Pirate Chief is the pick of those opposed to Danebury for the Foal Stakes, and be they need not fear, with such as Lady Hester and Vauban to represent their in terests. The Biennial for three-year-olds, one mile, reads a near thing between Staghound and Robin Hood, if both are well, the latter having to receive 3lb for his Ascot defeat, and he will like the shorter course better than Stegliound. The last-named, nevertheless, may just win, and his colours should make their mark in the South Hampshire Handicap, at Southampton, by the aid of Dulcimer. It will be interesting to observe what Lady Hester can do with Aaron (a Derby outsider of repute) and Plunder in the Cranbury Park Stakes, and it is on the cards she will beat the colt looking at what her ladyship did at Newmarket with his stable-companion, Golden Bloom—backed as though he were the best youngster they then had at Woodford. Anyhow Lady Hester can scarcely mks the Stoneham Park Stakes, the only event of the slightest importance in Thursday's list, though there are three handicaps completed, in two of which King Christian is bound to hold his own, if he does battle. The Huntingdon events will certainly be influenced by the prior racing of the week, as before Thursday and Friday several that are therein engaged must perform, especially some of those in the handicaps, upon which recent doings have thrown very little light, albeit I notice Soapstone and Acolyte to have some further good employment before them. The Hincbingbrook Stakes, about half a mile, will be the beat race for backers to bet upon, if Knight of the Garter makes his promised reappearance, for he can scarcely lose, the mast troublesome he has to meet on even terms being Clarice, so far as can be judged from public running. The calibre of the Cup horses is not great, the selected of the lot, at the two miles, being Monkey, Buckfoot, Longdown , Ostreger, and Lucifer ; and the latter stays decidedly the best. He looked, however, scarcely up to the mark at Stamford, and there is thus a chance for Moulsey to beat his stable, he being at least • better stayer than Ostreger.—l am, Sic. METEOR. EVENING, JULY 23, 1866. THE CHOLERA. - - There were two fresh admissions to the cholera ward at the Liverpool workhouse on Saturday morning— Henry Hawthorne, 58 years of age, from Gay-street, in the district from which most of the cases as yet have come ; and a young German, Ferdinand Rickards, 25 years doge, from Mitchell's coffee-house, in Copperas-hill. At the time when the German emigrant' from the Helvetia were brought to the workhouse, Rickards was employed as in terpreter in the temporary hospital, at Bank-hall. Both the new patients are said to be in a precarious condition. Four persons died of cholera in the workhouse on Saturday. These were—James Kelly, 14 years old, who was admitted on the 19th inst., from Baton-street ; Thomas Smith, aged 14, adinittedon the 29th, from Laos-street; Sarah Garotty, aged 6, admitted on the 16th, from the foundling ward ; and Alice Pickard, aged 3, admitted from the foundling ward, on the 18th. The total number of admissions; to the cholera ward sines the 10th inst. has been 43, and the total deaths 28. Of 21., 15 remaining, 3 are bad cases, and 9 have been removed t. the convalescent ward. Of the 20essea which originated in the workhouse, 14 have proved fatal ; and 14 have proved fatal amongst the 23 admitted from the town. One case occurred in West Derby ward (Gregson-street), on Saturday, and was admitted to the workhouse of the district. This is a locality which had boon quite free from the disease up to that time. The Bank-hall warehouses are now ready to receive the members of families in which the disease has appeared, who are themselves at present free from it ; and it is expected that this provision will effectively aid in stemming the progress of cholera in the town. It is gratifying to find that no cases have originated in the workhouses during the last four days. During the past week the cholera has made great ad vances in Winsford, in Cheshire (whence the telegram dated " Shrewsbury" in our Saturday's impression was despatched), carrying off more persons than the awe gate number of deaths for the previous three weeks. On Saturday week Richard Barnett, a child, aged one year and seven months, whose parents live in Meadow-Dank, a place notorious as the birthplace of cholera in Winsford, died after a short illness. On the same day, W. Daniels, aged 37, living two miles sway from Meadow.bank, in a neighbourhood hitherto uninfected, died after an attack of 24 hours' duration. On the next day three deaths oo curled, one that of William Tolley, aged 23, after one day's illness ; the second, Phrebe Fowles, aged 7 years, after 7 hours' illness; and the third, Harriet Gertard, a married woman, aged 35. These two latter oases oc curred in Meadow-bank. On Monday, Charles Tom linson, aged 18, a neighbour of Tolley's, and Anne Gibson, aged 51, living in Over, died after an illness extending over one day. On Tuesday the father of Phoebe Fowles, who fell sick on the day of his child's sudden death, died, and John Daniels, aged 5, son of William Daniels who died on the previous Saturday, was carried off after 12 hours' sickness. On Wednesday three deaths occurred in one family—Martha Higginson, the mother, age d 67, dying at Over, Charles Higginson, her son, aged 45, and Mary, her daughter-in-law, aged 27, dying at Wharton, two miles distant on the other side of the river. On Thursday Ada Williams, aged 70, died after 22 hours' sickness, and Mary Gibson, aged 34, was taken ill and died on the same day. One very alarming feature in the course of the disease during the past week is that it appears to be spreading all over the township, and while it is present in undiminished force at Meadow-bank, it is breaking out in Over and Wharton. On Friday an old woman living in Swallow-lane, out in the open country, a mile beyond Over, was taken ill. On the arrival of the dotter he found the patient sitting alone in a chair before the kitchen fire rapidly approaching the last stage of Asiatic) cholera, with her hands already cold and her face changing colour. She was at once put to bed, but was dead by Saturday morning. How she could have be come infected was not explained by any direct connexion with the town ; but her inevitable predisposition to cholera or any similar disorder was evidenced by the close atmosphere of the thatched cottage in which she lived, the stagnant pool of filthy water within the gate, and the few boards loosely fastened together which the kitchen door immediately opened on to at the back, and which served as a privy. In that quarter of the town where Martha Higginson died on Thursday, and which is appro priately known as the " Sandhole " the cholera is spreading very rapidly, having at hand the aids of an utter absence of drainage, a scanty supply of bad water, and the custom of keeping pigs. Six cottages have been built in the " fdandliole," having yards at back about ten feet long, at the end of each of which is a privy, and in three the intervening space between the privy and the house is occupied by pigs. These are not isolated cases, nor taken from the worst district, but convey a not exaggerated idea of the dan gerously insanitary state of the township, and will account for the facts reported by the medical men, that after 28 deaths there are at present in Winsford between thirty and forty cases of Asiatic cholera, and that there is scarcely a house that has not one or more inmates suffer ing from diarrhoea.

ROYAL ABBENAL.—A board of general officers , amongst whom were Major-Generals Yorke, Scarlett, and Airey ; Colonels Tyrwhitt and Gambier, Am., visited the Royal Arsenal on Friday and occupied some time in a full n n of several new pattern ambulances, ammunition inspection waggons, tee— as also the new iron gun car riages and slides intended to be used both in the military and naval service. Under the direction of the Ordnance Select Committee a course of firing has just terminated to teat the efficiency of Colonel Boxer'simproved breech-load ing cartridges whichhave been found eminently adapted for the Lancaster, Enfield, and navy rifles, and the artillery carbine. An order has been received from General Peel, directing an unlimited supply of these cartridges to be prepared for the general use of them my; and it is estimated that Colonel Dixon, superintendent of the royal small arms factory at Enfield, with the aid of various contracts about to be jetted, will be able to supply the military store keeper's department at Woolwich with upwards of 100,000 breechloadt ra by the end of the present year. The five batteries of the C Brigade Royal Horse Artillery, under the command of Colonel Huyshe recently arrived from India, have returned to headquarters from furlough, and been fully horsed and equipped with new accoutrements from the Royal Arsenal. The brigade, which comprises some of the oldest veterans in the service, wee inspected during the pest week by Major-Gen. Warde, commandant. THE PRUSSIAN NEEDLE-GUN. The ninth grand morning concert which took 1 place last Satur&y at the Crystal Palace was supplemented by an interesting description of thenow-celebrated Prussian needle-gun, by Mr. Rochusaen, in the lecture theatre in 1 the tropical department. A needle-gun similar in every ' respect to those which have been recently used in ' Germany with such deadly effect was lent for the purpose of exhibition and explanation by General Peel, the head of the War-office, and was examined with curious attention by thousands of persons during the day, it having been placed in • conspicuous position in the nave of the building. The simplicity of its construction is one of the most remarkable features in the weapon. The needle is attached to a bolt, which is pulled back by • spring ; and after the ball cartridge has been placed in the breech and the orifice closed, which is only the work of a second or so, the spring is released by pulling the trigger very much in the fashion of • toy gun, and the needle is propelled through the cartridge, and comes into contact with the fulminatingmaterial, which explodes from friction in the same manner as a Inciter match. In order to give elasticity and to prevent recoil the end of the bolt near the needle is tapered off, so that there is always a small chamber in the lock, which is vacant when the charge is by the action of the bolt pushed up into the breech, and to some extent the explosion would be analo- gous to that of a rocket, the fire burning backwards and the small vacant chamber having the effect of producing perfect combustion, and burning up the paper of the car tridge. The portion of the breech in which the car tridge is jammed by the bolt being a little wider than the barrel, the compression of the wad against the internal sides of the barrel in the act of pro pulaion has the effect of keeping it perfectly clean. Mr. Eisobwisen explained that the invention was originally that of • Frenchman, named M. Pauly, who hit upon the expedient of exploding a cartridge by the propulsion of • needle in • muxxle - loading gun, and submitted his inven tion to Napoleon the First, in 1811 or 1812, but the Em peror was then so much engaged that be could not give his attention to the subject of a change of small arms, and after the battle of Waterloo and the consequent restoration of the peace of Europe, although M. Pauly submitted his invention to the government, the na tions of Europe were so thoroughly exhausted with war that little attention was paid to it, and the invention was allowed to sleep until it was taken up in 1827 by an ingenious mechanician named Nicolas Drays*, who made some improvements in it, and two years later submitted it to the Prussian govern ment, who immediately perceived its importance, gave private instructions to Dreyse to proceed with his experi ments and improvements, and supplied him with money for that purpose ; the result being that the weapon was from time to time improved, until 1841, when it was con sidered perfect enough for employment on a large scale, and accordingly • sufficient number were manufactured to arm the Prussian army with, and these weapons were distributed to 100 men in every battalion. In 1865 the Prussians possessed 665,000 needle guns, and a power of production to the extent of 120,000 a year. The barrel was about 32 inches long and the whole weight of the gun 11lbs. The Prussian govern ment kept as secret as they could the ingredients of the fulminating powder which was placed between the ball and the gunpowder, but he believed it would be found to con sist, to a large extent, of chlorate of potasse, and it appeared from experiments that had been made that it would keep for any length of time. PUBLIC FEELING IN ROlti. —A letter from Rome says "It was necessary to have been a witness of the explosion of feeling here on hearing of the cession of Venetia to understand the patriotic sentiments of the Roman people. There was an extraordinary excitement ; men stopped each other in the street and embraced. Several hours passed in an indescribable anxiety as the intelligence was feared to be a deception—a manoeuvre of the enemies of Italy. When night arrived an immense crowd hastened to the printing-office of the Osservatore Romano. Groups not less numerous besieged the shops where the journals were sold, but the semi-official journal did not contain the news so impatiently expected. The national committee hastened to publish the article inserted that same morning in the Monifeur. The evening was somewhat agitated. The cafés were full of people ; promenaders abounded on the Corso, and it was remarked that more than one feminine toilet was distinguished by the assemblage of the Italian colours. The police, who feared a great manifestation, had given orders to repress it by force, and had put all its agents on foot. The French army took no part in these measures, and not one of the soldiers left the barracks, except the ordinary rounds, composed of three men without guns, guided by a gendarme. The people were calm and digni fied, evidently obeying a word of order. If the fears of the police were real, they ought to have promptly vanished, and if there was an intrigue, it was foiled. The next day the journal reproduced the famous note of the Moniteter. The joy of the ROmlnil was a little less lively than on the previous evening ; it had been modified by reflection." Tux Crams Prrour.—From the return of the reported cases of cattle plague in Great Britain, issued by authority of the Lords of the Privy Council, it ap pears that during the week ended July 14th the number of attacks officially reported in Great Britain was 304 ; viz., 295 in England, 7 in Wales, and 2 in Scotland. The number, viz., 304, shows a decrease of 9 on the previous return. Correcting the total, by adding an estimate of attacks commencing during the week, but which may be subsequently reported, the number for the week will be 342. The following V counties have from the com mencement remained free from the disease, viz., Westmoreland, Monmouth, the six counties of South Wales, Montgomery, Merioneth, Carnarvon, Anglesey, Wigtown Bute, Argyll, Ban ff , Elgin, Nairn, Ross and Cromarty, Sutherland, Caithness, and Orkney and Shet- I land. In sixty-six counties no cases have been reported las occurring during the week. Ten counties and two I ridings of Yorkshire show an increase of sixty-nine cases ; and ten counties and " the metropolis " show a decrease of 78 cases. One animal in every 20 of the ordinary stock of cattle in Great Britain has been attacked, and to every 1,000 attacks, whose results have been reported, 861 animals perished. A considerable number of sheep continue to fall within the influence of the epidemic; up to the date of this return 5,446 of these animals have been reported as attacked, being an addition of 373 to the number returned up to the end of the previous week. The flocks in Cambridgeshire, Essex, Suffolk, and Norfolk have suffered severely, and every precaution should be used to prevent the further development of the disease. A high temperetnre has prevailed during the week, the mean at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, being 68 deg. 2 min., or 11 deg. 9 min. above that of the pre vious week, and 6 deg. 3 min. higher than the average of the corresponding week during 50 years. No rain fall was registered during the week.

A large number of members attended the clubs to-day, and the bookmakers, evidently pleased with their good fortune during the put week, seemed inclined to speculate with spirit. Betting on the Goodwood Stakes formed the centre of attraction, and for some two or three hours layers and takers were without a pause occupied upon this event. The Special still remained by a long way the first favourite, and betrayed fewer signs of the in stabgity which has marked his career hitherto, for at no period of the day were longer odds than 100 to 30 laid against him, and this price was in every instance booked as soon as offered. Midla colt was remarkably quiet ; he was now and then inquired after, but we did not see him backed in a single instant*. It was diM cult to determine which horse was entitled to the position of third favourite—Black Prince or Potomac—all the "tens to one" about each being taken for money, and subsequently both were backed at a point less. Burney, who has been in bed odour for many days, and against whom long shuts have been from time to time fired, partially returned to favour, and found friends at the comparatively a net price of 100 to 7. Aetna, probably on the strength of her Stamford running, met with support at 100 to 5, and as will be seen below three new names were introduced into the betting, two of them at loot having a coming ap , once. The must prominent feature of the day's p was the retrogression of 012diateur for the Goodwood Cup, whose price we have returned at 7 to 1 offered, as one to sinner—and one only—stood out for £5O to £lO, but could not be accommodated. All sorts of offers were, however, made about the horse, such as 20 to 1 , " all in," and 2to 1 that he did not start. On inquiry we were Informed that he was not then scratched, but the probability was that he would be ere many hours. Notwithstanding that Gladiateur's retire ment left the Goodwood CUp an open race nothing was done upon it, backers and layers evincing in common a disinclination to speculate until the uncertainty attaching to the quondam fa vourite was cleared tip. Neither the St. Leger nor the Derby was so much as mentioned, the days transactions are, therefore, wholly represented by the subjoined quotations: The court-martial on Commander J. E. Hunter and the officers and crew of H.M.'s late ship Amason, which was lost on the morning of the 10th instant by cowing into collision with the Osprey, was resumed on Saturday morning on board the fiegohip Victory in Portsmouth harbour. Captain Harris, R.N., represented the Board of Trade; and Mr. Pope Hennessey was again in attendance to watch the case for the owners of the Osprey. Commodore Hunter, in his defence, expressed • hope that the court had found from the evidence that he and his offioers and men did their duty, and used their utmost exertions to save the lives of those on board the Osprey, to keep the Ammon afloat, and afterwards to save the lives of those left in his charge, with the limited means at his command. Referring to • statement of the chief mate of the Osprey, that he begged the crew of the Amazon to assist in saving the lives of those on board the Osprey, and that they took no notice of him, he said he thought he must have been mistaken, owing to the confused Kate in which he must have been at the time, as he could bring forward the men who were throwing ropes over with him, and while he was calling out to " bind the ropes on to the women," and seeing no one left in the vessel to do as he wished, he was on the point of going down with some of his men when the Osprey sank. Upon the cause of the collision he could say nothing, except express his opinion of the officer of the watch, Mr. Loveridge. He had found him most attentive and zealous in all his duties, especially in his watch. He spoke in high terms of the conduct of the officers and crew on the occasion. Mr. Loveridge urged that the accident was not due to any want of care or precaution on his part. When standing on the star board aide of the bridg e he saw first of all a single white light a point and a half or two points on his starboard bow. From the position in which he stood, with fore and aft sail' set, he could not have seen • vessel on his port bow, and therefore it was hardly possible the vessel he saw could have seen his red light, and it was proved that the light seen was on his starboard bow, and not on his port bow. Knowing this, and not knowing at the moment what the light was, or whether it was a ship's light at all, and draw ing on, as they were, towards the Start Point, he had to consider what to do. Seeing a single white light on his starboard bow, he could not well continue his course because the light he saw might be the Start, which would have shown them to be so much out of their reckoning as to make even a momentary approach towards it unadvis able, or it might have been a fi shing boat nearer than it appeared, or it might have been • steamer steering directly for his starboard bow, in which case it was his business to keep out of her way, and hen to continue her course. He could not port his helm because it might still be the Start Point or • vessel which had already crossed ahead of the Ammon from port to starboard. Under these circumstances be took the precautionary measures of at once bringing the doubtful light broad on the bow on which he first saw it. , In • minute and a halt or two minutes he with difficulty, ' with the aid of his glasses, made out the Osprey's red light. ' He saw nothing to lead him to suppose that the Osprey Iwas porting her helm. He thought that if he shift his helm he should only confuse the r•ertori in charge of the ap- METROPOLITAN POOR-LAW MEDICAL Orricieng proacbing steamer, who would, he Considered, be probably Assomortom—July 19,1866. —My dear sir,—lt affords me m i n di ng hi s starboard helm, in order to pass astern of very much pleasure to be the medium of communicating him.

Jana Victory, 20, a fish hawker, was charged with aiding and assisting to commit a felonious assault upon MC Boyar. - Mr. Pearce prosecuted ; Mr. Codd was counsel for the defence. The offence imputed to the prisoner was of a most opt rageous character. The proriecutrix was a young woman, and it appeared that on the morning of the 10th of June she was walking in the fields near Plaistow, in company with her sweetheart, and they were welled by the prisoner and a number of other ruffians who, after assan:t ing and driving away the young man who wee with the proeecutrix, then threw her down, and two of them at lead, if not more, committed a gross outrage upon her. A young labouring man, named Turtle, who had come up upon hearing the cries of the proeecutrix for assistance, and who seemed to have conducted himself very well, followed the ruffians for some distance notwithstanding their threats, ar-d succeeded in procuring the apprehension of the pri soner, but his companions made their escape. The jury found theprisoner Guilty, _and he was sentenced to ten years' penal servitude, andthe learned judge directed that the witness Turtle should be paid 31., as a reward for his courageous conduct in the affair. MIDLAND ClRCUlT.—Nornmoasm, JULY 21. (Before Mr. Justice Mellor.) Jane Bevil/ (18), domestic, servant, was charged with the wilful murder of her child, eight months old, at Not tingham, on the 16th April last. Mr. Mellor and Mr. Smith for the prosecution ; and Mr. Bristowe defended the prisoner. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty, with a recommen dation to mercy ; and sentence of death was ponied in the usual form. THE POLICE COURT& WORSHIP-STREET. John Pders, a healthy-looking young man, wee charged by William Hall, the superintendent of labour at the East London Union, with refusing to work. The Superintendent said—This morning the master told me I was to desire this man to do some work—to p'ck weeds at the side of the house. He refused. I cautioned him of the oonsequencea, and afterwards, by order of the waiter, I gave him into custody. Mr. Ellison—You tell me that he refused. Use his words. What did he say ? Superintendent—He said, " I am not able." Mr. Ellison—ls he an inmate of the house? Superintendent—Yes, sir. Here is his certificate of capability from the doctor. John Denny, the house porter, corroborated the witness, and Peters then said—l am paralysed all down one side of me, and the arm on the same side (the left) is gone. Nearly two years ago I received a certificate from the doctor who cut it off that I was totally unfit for work. I showed it to the guardians, and never until this day have they asked me to do any. It's impossible, sir—quite impossible—l could do it. They tyrannise over me quite enough without compelling me to try that. I couldn't do it—l couldn't, indeed, sir. Why, when I stooped and picked up anything with my right hand I shouldn't have " nothing" to balance myself up again with. It's impossible, sir. Mr. Ellison—The man says that he is paralysed. Ps that fact known to the surgeon? Superintendent—Oh yes, sir, he has been aware of it six or seven years, and be says that he is quitecapable of doing this sort of thing. Peters—l am not fit for anything. Mr. Ellison—Very well, I will remand this man for the of affording an opportunity of the surgeon oerti runTs that he knew he was paralysed, and to what extent. Superintendent—Oh, I am quite certain that be was aware of it; perfectly. Mr. Ellison—Very well, this man is remanded ; and the afflicted pauper shuffled out of court to the cell. MANCHESTER AND COUNTY BANS ( LIMITED). The following is the directors report to be made at the half-yearly meeting on the 27th cost.:-The direc tors have much pleasure in submitting to the shareholders the annexed balance-sheet for the ball-year ending 30th June, 1866, on reference to which it will be seen that the net profit for the half-year, including 1,006/. 16s. 9d., the balance carried forward from the 30th December last, amounts to 52,5291. 4s. 10d. The exceptional character of business during the last six months, which to some extent still prevails, has, in the opinion of the directors, ren dered a more than ordinary amount of caution necessary, both in the management of the business of the bank and in the application of the profits. It is, therefore, pro posed to pay a dividend at the rate of 8 per cent. per annum (free of income-tax), to add 20,0001. to the re serve fund, which will thus be raised to 60,0001., to lay aside 5,000/. as a contingent fund for bad debts, and to carry forward 3,1941. to profit and loss account. The in crease in the expenses during the half-year arises from the incorporation of the three branches connected with the late S.ddleworth Banking Company, and from the establishment of a new branch at Btalybridge. The directors are gratified in being able to state that the re sult of the amalgamation with the Baddleworth Banking Company has fully equalled their expectation, and that the general business of the bank, both at the head office and at the branches has steadily increased.

COTTON GOODS. MANOIIIB7IOI, JOLT 21.—The yarn market has been quiet all the week, and since Tuesday prices have been easier. The announcement of the bank failure at Preston, on Thursday, had a bad effect, from the expectation, which is still entertained, that it will lead to the suspension of some large manufacturers and spinners there and at Blackburn. Prices are rastained to some extent by the activity and strength of the Liver. pool cotton market, but buyers of yarn are cautions, and but little business has been done. The revived hopes of peace are also helping to the firmness in the market, buyers for the continent having strong expectations that the war is near its close, sod having in some instances operated to a fair amount. Home trade buyers have been doing but little, and yesterday found low counts easier to buy. In cloth the market is very languid, and has been all the week. The advice* from India are unfavourable. Sales could only be made on Tuesday at a concession in price, and there has been nothing occurring since to give a stimulus to prices. At the prices charged for yarns manufacturers find it impossible to obtain contracts to make cloth which would give them a profit. HARDWARE.—Bnimmousn, JULY 21.—The trade of this town has been dull for some time past, and the of the Birmingham Banking Company has had a page farther depressing effect upon it. Half-a-dozen failures in the town and district have already been announced in consequence of that event, and it is tolerably certain that others will follow. Since our but the fresh orders received through the factors have been small ;in the foreign depart ment also business is extremely quiet ; in the conti nental branch of it scarcely anything is being done. Under ordinary circumstances, when there is any fall-off in the neceasty quantity of orders through the factors and merchants, to enable the manu facturers to keep their establishments at work full time it is usual to make up goods for stock, but as matters now stand here manufacturers will not be disposed to take that course, so that until trade generally revives here, we shall in all probability experience more of slackness than has been known for a long time here.
