II Sl I FRANCE. THE HORSE SHOW 1/4 PARIS. thaw conk over couraroigozim) PABIB, tureanse Zvi:ma I paid • visit to-day to the horse show in the Falai& de l'lndustrie, Champs Elysian. The Yoeiet , Hippiree Frarvaise are the patrons of this ; exhibition. As many as 450 horses, all bred in France, are provided with comfortable stalls within the building. The trials for prizes began yester day, and will be continued till April 9th, when the prizes will be awarded. At 3 o'clock on the 14th there will be an exhibition of all the winners. The principal founders of this show, which is assuming annually increased importance, are the Marquis de Monnay and General Fleury. The attendance was very thin, and this is not to be won dered st, seeing the high price of admission, 5 franca, and the little interest which Pari sians outside the very limited world of sport take in horses. Races draw crowds be cause them is a spectacle and a show of great people, but the Parisian bourgeois will I think more than twice before he spends sf. to see a lot of horses in stalls, and two or three carriages at a time driven round an arena covered with saw dust. Those who did pay their sf. could scarcely avoid being struck with the fact that the hippic exhibition just outside, in the Champs Elysies, which everybody could see all day long for nothing, was far prettier. There, sitting at ease under the sprouting chestnut trees, which already give an agreeable shade, you may nee, under a glowing April sun, never-ceasing files of splendid equipages and prancing horses as fine as any in the world. Inside, standing in the cold, gloomy, damp corri dors of the Exhibition Palace of 1855, you see one four-in-hand, a phaeton, and a couple of tilburys driven round at a monotonous trot in sawdust. The three juries have groups of chairs and tables to write upon in the middle of the arena, and very conscientiously watch the competition. Now and then a saddle - horse appears, and jumps over a singularly low hurdle fence, which any good Shetland pony could take. 1 am not saying that this fence is not high enough to show off a horse's paces. It would be beside the purpose of the exhibition to have dangerous leaps. Most of the prizes awarded will be Prix de Dressage, such as I described • little while ago when speaking of a hippie competition at Caen. The judges take into consideration not so much the speed and build of a - horse as the way in which they are broken. The proceedings, tedious as they are, cannot fail to be very interest ing to horse proprietors desirous of making pur chases, and horse dealers of all cloves. But as an exhibition in this locality I do not think it will prove generally attractive. A great many of the stalls are too dark to allow of the horses being seen well. From a cursory survey I should say that the average character of the animals exhibited is not high. I saw very few nice hacks, anl a great many "leggy or cumbrous " machiners." The generally useful predominates rather than very choice specimens. A larg3 proportion of the horsesare of that peculiar compact breed, something between a cob and a dray horse, which one sees in the Paris omnibuses. In various compartments of the building there are carriages of all sorts and sizes, harness, saddles, bridles, newly-invented shoes for oxen as well as horses, chaff and straw cutters, currycombs, brushes, and all manner of stable gear. Although to a cockney or • jtaneur the Exhibition may seem " slow," I have no doubt many English visitors to Paris next week will find much in it to interest them, and probably the price of admission will be lowered to If. after the first two or three days. Early in the morning anybody wishing to purchase a horse may, with the permission of the owner, try him in the building. ~~ JAPAN. Details respecting the civil war are still meagre. The latest information is to tho 9th Feb. The Japan Gazelle of that date says :—" Yesterday an ambassador from the Mikado was received in state by the ministers. After an audience of some two hours, an order was issued to recall the troops. Accordingly the bugle sounded the recall, and the whole picket line were soon on board their respec tive ships. Later in the day a company of Choshiu 's troop. marched through the main street to fife and drum in the most orderly manner. The ambassador was escorted from the embassy to the Hatoba by a company of soldiers, and went on board the Cockchafer, which took him to old Hiogo, where they loft him, and returned to the anchorage. Thus you will perceive that war is over and peace restored. We hope that business will now commence, and be prosecuted without further hindrance. The steamer Kanga no Kami arrived here two days since, with 350 Tycoon's troops on board ; the day before she arrived she took fire, but it wassoon put out. She is being repaired, and will take the troops to Yedo, they not being allowed to land here. I will close by saying that at is now the intention of the ministers to visit the Mikado very soon at Kioto. A postscript says :—' The arrange ments are that Satsuma, Choshiu and Toza take over the government with all the Tycoon's treaties and responsibilities, under the Mikado direct. Satsuma's troops already garrison Kobel, well-dressed, well-drilled, well armed. The custom-house is reopened. Mikado's officers will probably govern all open ports. Bizen to pay for all damage through the late conflict. Steamers restored." THE FOREIGN HAILS.

THE PAST AND THE FUTURE. TO TM =TOR Or TIER UNITS& r. O Ste,--1110wtheillTeitrredliglit blue was hot week beaten, lest at Beaufort Hones, them on the wetly, aid finally at St. Jamea's-hall oa the board of green cloth, will long ;be discussed by =—and nenorting , for that matter - communities • hut terfites, whose , interest in the pattern nee ea the Thames is more of as d. therache than say other, have almost forgotten that by thin time, and it was strange to notice the eager nees with which those who had misted thereat plunged into the Derby and Twe Thousand the moment they returned to the clubs on Saturday. It is true the most startling news had been pet ea the wires during the morning and overnight, and if oar operator did not " perform " another would, no doubt ; nevertheless It was ' none the lees remarkable that the knights of the blackhead sated se though they almost regretted the time lost "up the river," and that they were not earlier in the field to watch the startling Pace and Harvester business. As I prognosticated long ago, the latter has passed his big eon panion in the Derby betting, as he likewise would have done in the Two Thoumed had not the eperratoes in his favour turned round and knocked him out again when he looked like becoming too great • favourite. He has done I such • " good thing " at home with Pam and Silence as , raises the question whether be is sot the equal or superior ' of Speculum, and es sure to afford good hedging to these who took my oft-repeated hint, and get on. The 0011•141. lion grows stronger every day that Matthew Dawson will have to find something better to win the Derby with than Speculum, whose Epsom rival, Orion, has not clewed hands as contemplated, for souse unexplained reason. animal from which a " line" was taken to measure the pair just named, Names, appeared for the third time at North ampten, in the St. las Handicap, and got so shamefully beaten again as to take some of the gilt off their two per formances. Not only Grey Stocking, but Lady Coventry and Lounge also bed fairly beaten her • long way from home, so that when we consider how Cocas, with only a stable-boy in the saddle, served the latter in the Warwick Trial, there is room for the supposition that the Hedass. ford crack is as near in farm to Speculum and Orion as lass year's running clearly made out. Not only has Pace been beaten in a "dust - up," bus his feat still give his Mends plenty of anxiety, • dry spring being almost cer tain to do for him. Another whilom Newmarket creek, Mahican, is in • worse plight, having most unmistake ably " gone," and turning last year's running topsy-turvy we have Suffolk beaten in his Mal" by Restitution, whose best race as a two year old was the third in the Woodcote. We shall probably hear of Les Sac. razin, the winner of this importhat Juvenile rate now ' that both the second and third to him are in such de mand,i especially with so little for the Frenchman to hope for in Rebhan. Typhoeus is the steadier of the Newmarket favourites in both the Two Thousand and Derby, and there are few others about whom liberties are not taken, two of Sir Joseph Hawley's three, Green Sleeve and Blue Gown, being on the see-Ilaw, whilst both the Danebury pets, Lady Elizabeth and the Bart, are tottering. The latter has made the greatest backward stride, though he is not repo rted as doing badly, like the fi lly over three weeks ' walk ing exercise being rather alarming to those who thought she would only be " eased " for • day or two. However there are still seven weeks before her, and if she is no t really amiss John Day has only to beg in again at once to get her fully no to the mark. Rumour says that there are monetary obetaeles in the way of her starting, and that The Earl is in the same predicament ; but it will not do to believe all one hears in the turf world, and • horse good enough to win • great race invariably " has its head loose." There are exceptions to this rule, of course, but very often through owners being led away by fall acious private spins. There can be no other excuse, I should hope, for Blueskin's declining the Northamptonshire Stakes, when on!the ground and in excellent trim, than that he was deemed inferior to Roquefort, though how such a mistake could be made as to even run the latter it is hard to conceive. Bursting a blood vessel on the previous Thursday, and throwing up about • pint of blood, it is a wonder that he was allowed to gallop at all for some days, with such • horse as Blueekin to fall back ' upon, and I understand that from the time of his &evident until his arrival at Northampton be was not allowed to go faster than a good cab-horse, his trainer (no feather) galloping alongside him on a cob to see whether he bled again. Under the circumstances, it is not to be wondered at that he should be tailed away in the race after going • mile—the surprise being, as before urged, that Biu &tin was not pulled out just to help him. According to his running in the Metropolitan with the first, third, and fourth hese, the young one must have been " there or thereabouts," and being in snob good hand., his declining a rich stake like the Northamptonshire Stakes is a worse mistake than withdrawing Grey Stocking from the City and Suburban. Blueakin very nearly win the Queen's Plate on the second day, splint a moth better horse than any in the handicap, Blinkhoolle, and it cannot be otherwise than galling to Mr. Savile should he ever meet Mariner again, and beat him. Very little else came out of the two days in Northampton to be talked about by those interested in the future, Ironmaster having too light a weight for his Spencer Plate victory to make him a favourite for the Two Thousand ; and I need only observe of the two-year - olds that one of the unplaeed in the Althorp-park Stakes, Melody, may some day turn out as good as anything we had at the meet ing, admitting Cunene*, Flower Girl, and Vermi celli—all winners—with the brother to Poleaxe, are not • bad lot to look at. Mariner is put out of the Chester Cup by a penalty' which brings his weight up to that of Beauty, who pulled me through for the Whittle bury, in the face of Athena, and is greatly fancied for this. However, with almost a blank week before backers and layers, the Bromley Meeting being merely a holiday for cockney " sportsmen," there will doubtless be better things than Beauty introduced into the market for the Roadee event, and I cannot help thinking Landscape or I Mercury will be • good favourite some day, notwithstand ing the market at present makes out the bitter is inferior to the Priest. The Great Northern Handicap, just framed, may not be introduced yet, but my pr ed ilection for Mr. Bowes must be thus early expressed, with Tenths in at 7st. 71b., and Fobert must supply a "good thing" likewiee.—l am, he., METEOR.

THE ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. —Ata special meeting of the Liverpool Town Council, on Saturday a report was presented from a committee appointed to invite the Royal Agricultural Society to hold their 1869 meeting in Liverpool. In moving the adoption of the report Mr. Alderman Hubbaok said that a very good suggestion had been thrown oat for the meetinf to be held at Newton. That place he had reason to believe would be satisfactm7 to both Manchester, Liverpool, and Preston, and Mr. Ugh had promised a site at Newton admirably suited for the show. FATAL CHEMICAL EXPLOSION AT NOTTINGHAM...— On Saturday evening, the 4th int& , a fatal explosion took place at the shop of Mr. S. B. Fletcher, chemist and drug gist, Melbonrne-street, Nottingham. It appears that about hill-past eight o'clock Mr. Fletcher's porter, named John Noble, was in the shop powdering chlorate of potash in a mortar for the purpose of mixing it with other eke. inhale to make what is called " red lire." While doing this, it is supposed that be dropped a light into it, and a tem& explosion took place. Noble was killed on the spot, one of his arms being completely blown off. The apprentice, named Robert Allis, who was standing close by the deceased was also severely injured on the head and face, and he now lies in a precarious condition, Another man, named Swann, received severe injuries, and was at once conveyed to the General Hospihl. Several other pet sou who were in the shop were more or less wounded. The shop was completely gutted by the force of the explosion, the windows, doors, &c , being blown into the street, and several pers onsi paring by were hurt. In the room over the shop considerable damage was done, and the premises at the back were much shaken. The shop of Mr. Dodson, separated from that of Mr. Fletcher by an entry was also shaken by the force of the explosion. Deceased was about 17 years of age. - - ilisrurs 1x liarranurrcir.—:A case of consider able interest yea on Saturday tried before Mr. Justice Mellor at the Liverpool spring anima. The ease was that of " Cheyne (assignee) r. Davies." The y tt il iff weed as the assignee of the estate of rho,. Da a bankrupt, formerly proprietor of the Royal H otel, felled, and other property in the neighbourhood, to recover from John Rotert Davies, the brother of the bankrupt, some property which it was alleged formed part of the bank- rupt's 'Abdo. In 1865 the mother of the bankrupt gua ranteed an amount of 8001. odd in order to enable the bankrupt to pay a composition of 10e. in the pound. The brother, it was asserted, was party to the guarantee, which was in the shape of promimory note', but as be and the bankrupt's mother claimed to be large creditors on the estate of the bankrupt, they took posses si on of a large portion of the property, to the exclusion of the majority of the creditors. A variety of deeds were execrated, and the question Mr. Justice Mel/or_put to the jury was whether or not the deeds were a mmeUmle to secure a fraudulent prefsrenoe. The jury awarded 7001. for the plaintiff. - - LOST LoonAolt.—The caw of Newston v. the Lon don and North Western Railway Company was tried et the Liverpool amines on Saturday before Mr. Justice Welke. The action was to recover the value of luggage lest by the defendants between Manchester and Liverpool, the value of which plaintiff estimated at 1131. Ils. ' including SOL worth of silk handkerchiefs. An the latter, however, were merchandise, the plaintiff was not able to recover for them, and the defendants paid 161. ioto court as the full value of the personal luggage plaintiff was entitled to take with him. Jacob Newstoa, a Turk, had been in Rag land nearly two years, the greeter portion of which time he carried on the bumbles of a perambulator.makre in 'Manchester. Having made up his mind to proceed to America be went some time ago to Ootudantixiople to see his friends. On retura;sto .e Vod he collected the luggage which he require to take with him, as on the 21 tilag he had a box eastaining ths luggage conveyed to the ietoria station in Manchester, and had it labelled for Liverpool by one of the porter'. It was placedin a van attached to the trait', but when the latter arrived at Liverpool the box wee miming and it had not sines been found. The jury, without hearing the wh ile/NS fest the defames, said th e y were WWI that the plaintiff had been fully compensated b the sum paid into court, and a verdict wee entered Tai EDUCATION 07 Inc WORKING CLASSI&— OD Saturday night tits ad Owned confirm:op on edueatiou, that has been got up by the authorities of the Working Men's College, was held in the lecture-room of that insti tution, Great Ormond-street. There was a large attend ance of the members of the college.

After the decision of the boat race, members flocked to the clubs, and there was one of the best musters that has been seen for some time past. Speculation was brisk and heavy, especially in connection with the Two Thousand and the Derby, and some important proceedings took place calculated to affect the market materially. For the first-named event, itesiernann was in good odour, the odds of 3 to 1 finding ready takers in several direc tions, and 1501. being booked in one band at this price. 70 to 40 was also laid four times on Resiorooka v. Formosa, beat of 1,2, 3. Typhoeus was in consaierable demand, and early in the morning 8 to 1 was books.' in his favour ; later on, however, 100 to 12 was laid several times, and one speculator offered "eigh t monkeys" spinet him. Harvester was de.idedly t lion of the slay, all the 20'e to 1 about him being snapped up and ultimately he was backed at as little as 100 to 71900 to 100 being also taken with a start) ; finally, however, &alight re-action set in, and 100 to 6 was laid. His stable coca pardon, Pace, meanwhile went through a variety of changes ; 100 to 7 was laid fi ve or six times, then thirteen ponies were taken, then 100 to 6 was booked twice, sub sequently 14 to 1 was taken freely and asked for, and as the finish no more than 12 to 1 was offered, and es indeed taken to • small amount. See Saw and Restitution were • good deal inquired after, and met with substantial support at their respective quotations. On the other band, Banditto and Bine Gown exhibited a downward tendency, as much as 1,000 to 30 being pencilled the first-named, while repeated offers of 200 to 7 tailed d againstto induce any one to invest on Sir Joseph Hawley's outaider. Rabican went even worse, offers extending from 40 to 1 to 1000 to 10 without bri4vg • single response. Among the outsiders Michael de Basco was invested upon three or four times at 1000 to 20, and Chelsea was frequently in gest::: after, but the price o ff ered did not seem to suit. elation on the Derby took a somewhat wide range, gh individually not very heavy. Prolamin were made to accept 100 to 15 about Lady Ilimbetb, but layers as • rule fought shy, and it was only here and titers an oomaional offer was made of 8 to 1. Against Basioreeka the current quotation was 7 to 1, WI in ams indium 16 la 2 was offered met by a counter reopens, to wept 800 to 100. 360 to , 100 would also have been taken about AIN two coupled, but offers did not exceed 300 a. Them was an apparent willingness to lay Green Sleeve, one speculator offering 1100 to 100 meeting with a reply. The Duke of Newcastle's them were made the channels of a good deal et wegsrigg.

Mr. John Ma, who wu described am an agent, waa placed at the bar and Mr. Thomas Alpert, a traveller, surrendered in discharge of his bail before Alderman Hale, charged with violently assaulting Mr. Edwin Yelland, with intent to do him grievous bodily harm. Mr. Edwin Tolland was now examined, and said that when he met Hill they shook hands in the most friendly manner and went up to his office. Hill said he had called to see him about a letter he had received from him, and he replied that be was Iliad of it, but that as Mr. Hill bad a friend he would call in Mr. Cowell, a friend of his. Mr. Hill said, " I don't want anyone here, and I won't have anyone called in." Witness turned to the spesldng tube, and Mr. Hill, with a significant look at Alpert, said, "Tom ; the door !" As be turned round after whistling through the tube be received a blow on the forehead from Hill, and im mediately afterwards a succession of very heavy blows on the back of bits head, until he told Hill he was Ming him. He screamed "Murder." The result of the blows prevented him using any force to protect himself. He took up an umbrella to defend himself, and Hill, advancing to the table, took up his own umbrella and struck witness on the head with the heavy end of it. He again screamed " Murder !" and his clerk and Mr. Cowell interfered to protect him. In answer to Mr. Beesley (who appeared for the prisoner) he said he had known Hill for several years, but rather intimately for three years. When he first knew Hill he was general superintendent of the agents of the Britain and Medical Life Association, an Aloe which he was espged in establishing. Afterwards be was in the set vice of the Life Investment Mortgage Corporation which he also established. He had not advertised under the name of " Verdes," or under any other name but his own. About three years ago he did something for a patent for Mr. Hill, and he was now sting him for 1,0001. for the services he rendered him in respect of it. Dickey was not a clerk in any of the companies above named bat wee his own legitimate desk for his own private bwisess. Witness's own private business was the British Alliance Life As =rano. Company. That was his legitimate busineas. That had nothing to do with his private resources. Mr. Dickey kept the boob until lately, when be got a legiti mate book-keeper. In reply to Mr. Knight, he said he did not remember Alpert saying anything. When he entered the room be sat down and did nothing. Mr. Healey addressed she bench on behalf of Mr. Hill, and while admitting that he could not justify the 'mauls, urged that the provocation he had received in being sued for money he did not owe would induce the worthy alder man to deal summarily with the case. Mr. Knight submitted that Alpert had gone down there only ea a witness, and had only been a spectator through out. Alderman Hale said be had made up his mind to com mit the prisoners for trial, but they would be formally re. mended for • week for the attendance of the doctor to complete the deposition& The prisoner were then remanded, but admitted to buil, Hill in two sureties of 1501. each, and himself in 3001. ; and Alpert in two sureties of 601. each, and himself in 1001. :111T BOW-STREET.

The supply of wheat was quite I equal to the demand, and there was not much anxiety to hey. Oats were dear, and the supply of hart' , " short. Both oats and barley were in request for sowing. The fine weather no doubt infinanoed prices in theme aorta in favour of dealers. Bocuxarsa, Aram 4.-Mhos our last report the wheat trade in this city has bees characterised by less firmness, while the trade generally has remained is as inactive date. At the Corn Exchange there was a fair supply of wheat brought forward, most of of the samples exhibited =n improved condition. The trade, however, ruled e, and where aides were pressed scarcely se much money was obtained for secondary and inferior parcels, while superior lots with difficulty realised about la. per qr. snore money.

The dour trade w as hardly so firm, the extra price of id. per sack obtained last week being barely maintained. lbeie was very little passing in barley, sales being confined cbietly to parcels of grinding kinds. for which about late rates were obtained, A few of the best sorts of malting fetched 445. to 48.., and others 425. to 44a. per qr. Best grinding barley, to 365. ; and secondary, 32.. to 345. per qr. The malt trade is firm, and prices about the same es before. Good old oats command about as much money as before, while secondary and inferior lots are the turn cheaper. No alteration in other sorts of grain. Wirusses, APRIL 4.--We continue to be fairly supplied with all grain at this market. Wheat in steady demand at fully last week's prime, and the same remarks applies to oats. peas, and beans, WoneesTma, APRIL 4. -At this day's market there was a limited supply of wheat, which sold slowly at last week', rates. Fine barley Is. higher. Oats held for some advance. Beans dearer. Peas neglected. YORK, APRIL 4.-Here to-day wheat was by no mean' largely represented. The condition of the corn was toler able, and samples were taken off at fully former quota tion'. White wheat realised 765. to 80s. ; red ditto, 70e. to 745. per quarter. Of barley we have now very short supplies; the Made on the whole is firm, and former prices are for the most part well maintained. Malting barley makes CS. to 485.; grinding ditto, 425. per qr. Oats were in fair supply for the time of the year, and there was a tolerable demand. Samples were held foe re. cent terms, and business was generally done at late rates; 28a. to 30a. per 24 stone were the current rates. The de mand for beans ruled steady. The supply was small, and buyers had to pay the extreme rates of the previous Satur day, 495. to 51s. per 38 stone. The business done in peas was limited. Rye made 425. Malt, 68s. to 70s. per qr. Flour, 555. to 575. per sack of 280Ibs. WATERFORD. APRIL 4.-From foreign we have received several cargoes wheat and one of maize. Ly other ways little arrived. The tone of our market this week was buoyant, and the business done considerable. A general feeling of confidence in present prices is shown, and as all buying is for immediate consumption and no stocks held in the interior, we may reasonably expect a continued steady dema nd for all articles of the trade for some time to come. Wheat -Irish seems to be all but cleared out everywhere ; there is now and then an odd parcel offering, but for remainder of this season our quotations can only be nominal. This must benefit the demand for foreign, all descriptions of which continue to be well in quired for, and close firm at our quotations of Saturday Last. Barley is the turn lower. Black Oats -Our market has been cleared of all prime parcels that were on otter at the currency of this day se'nnight, and a small advance is now looked for. Indian Corp.-American is 3d. cheaper, but all other varieties are held for a few pence per barrel more money. There is a very fair quantity . moving into use. Flour rather better. The weather during this week was exceedingly fine. Imports this week : -Maize, 916 quarters ; wheat, 10,358. Exports this week :-Wheat, 960 barrels ; oats, 6,393; barley, 50 ; dour, 416 sacks.

OOTTON 000D13.-11•11013MEnt. Jinni. 4.—We have had a straw market all the weak for cotton yarn and cloth at rapidly advimaing prices. Yesterday there was a good deal of business done in yarns at prices from 144. to 2.1. 'per lb. higher than those prevailing • week previously, land to r day • further advance in cotton at Liverpool has compelled manufacturers and spinners to farther raise Unix quotations. Yams have been more freely dealt in daring the week than cloth, because manufacturers having in many instances uncompleted contracts have sae choice but to supply their wants. In the cloth market the feeling is quieter, and there has been much less activity. Buyers have • great distrust of the high rates prevailing, sad follow the advance very reluctantly. While manufao hurlers are compelled to raise their quotations, and show • good deal of Amnon in adhering to them, their market is spoiled to • great extent by speculators, who, having purchased whoa prices were lower, can af ford to place their cloths in competition at 9d. to 12d. per piece under the rates at which producers can afford to make them. This was especially felt yesterday, and led to a fair amount of transactions. Theaaggggrreeggaate sales of the week in cloth, however, have been farlfromcousiderable. Jam:meta and other light clothe have been difficult of sale owing to the advance of about 3d. to 4iti. per piece upon them. T cloths, domestics and other heavy ancillooarse fabrics have been dull at an advance of about ld. per lb. Eiatsairn and printers have had the greatest share in the d bet there is reason to believe that, high as the price is, a good deal of the business done in them is of a purely speculative character. Money for such purposes seems to be forthcoming without stint. It is said that one capitalist alone, in the south of England, has placed 80,000 f. in the hands of an neat for this purpose .

The buoyant tone of the Liverpool cotton market has tended in some degree to exert • favourable influence, though operations have been made with Dome degree of elution.

Spinners, who are !generally fully employed for some time to come, have again advanced tUir quota tions in many cases to keep off customers ; and this cir cumstance has bad the desired effect of restricting busi nem Stocks are to a great extent reduced, and spinners are mostly engaged on late contracts . There is • fair bossiness doing in pieces, though it falls much below that done in yarns. Continental merchants are doing a steady burin= The home trade In much quieter, and there is little or nothing doing for America. Manufacturers have again endeavoured to realise higher retell, in order to cover the ealutnced prices of cotton and wool, but they have not as yet succeeded in realising rates commensurate with the increased cost of production. Their position is one of difficulty and perplexity. WOOLLEN.—Lens, APRIL 4. The markets this morning have not presented any new feature of particular interest. The attendance of buyers both ►t the coloured and white balls has been small, and their transactions have also been limited, few parcels having changed hands, excepting for the execution of present orders or simply to keep stocks assorted. In the coloured market low union maltose have engaged the chief atten tion, although the transfer has not by any means been large.

HAEDWAll.E.—Bramrsoitur, Aran. 4.—The state of trade in this town is again reported of rather unfavourably this week. There is not that kind of depression from which it was suffering earlier in the year, but there is • total abeenoe of animation in nearly every department. The factors' travellers are sending home comparatively small orders. The consequence is that manufacturers, wbo are very closely worked up, find it as much as they can do to keep their establishments on the usual time. In the foreign department not much change has occurred of late; as a role the merchants' orders are small. The American trade is if anything worse, and no prospect of improve. went is apparent. There is a good sprinkling of orders in on account of the eastern markets. CORN.--CAXIIRIDGE, APRIL 4.-We had • short supply of corn at this day's market, and prima were generally dearer.
