TEE EXPRESS, MONDAY EVENING, JULY 30, 1860. THE TREATY BETWEEN THE DRUSES AND NARONITM The French papers publish the.following as the text of the treaty of peace signed between the Drumm and the Marenites : We, the undersigned caimakam, wakeels, im dim, and head men among the Christian s , havingi= by order of his Exoelleucy the Musheer of Saida to the pre sauce of his Excellency the Kaye, and Caimakam of his Ex cellency Wadi Effendi ; having then conferred with the esinuilam, wakeela, mokatagis, the divan, and bead men of the Drums, seeking mutually to extirpate the causes of disunion that have occurred, and to preserve future tran quillity, pursuant to the orders of his excellency, and fur the love of the country : Becogniming that, since the commencement of these dis orders, the government, the chiefs of the country, rational people. and those who love the country and tranquillity, have incessantly striven to prevent those disorders from taking place ; but seeing that the machinations of those who love disorder, and chie9v of those persons who have no pity on infanta, boys, and girls, and that the obstinacy of unreasonable persons have been unable to prevent tho war from breaking out ; acknowledging that, in practice of such a state of things, there is no other mode of stopping the effusion of blood and bringing back general tranquillity but that of concluding peace between the belligerent parties conformably to the peace made in the year 12il1 ,14 the Ilegire (A.D. 1545), entitled "The oblivion of that which has happened": In coroequenee, it has been agreed upon, with God's help, to draw up this treaty of general peace upon the con dition above stated ; and that, respecting all that has oc curred since the commencement of the general war down to the present moment, neither of the parties has the right to put forward any claims now or hereafter ; that after the signing of this treaty, whoever shall endeavour to break the peace shall be immediately punished by the authorities, and whoever shall seek to protect him shall be punished in consequence ; all the chiefs in such a case will have to unite for preventing the renewal of such an act. The orders of the authorities will be given pursuant to the regulations of the Mountain. The cuunacem, the rao kategia, will also have to conform their actions in follow ing the administrative regulations of the Lebanon without any change, hastening to carry out all the orders of the au thorities, engaging to acquaint the latter with what is going on whenever necessity require* it. They will have to use all their efforts to bring about union, friendship, and concord between the two nations, by procuring tranquillity and well-being for ell the inha b it iuda, end especially by end eavouring to bring back each individual to his home, there to live at peace and to retake possession of his property, without the possibility of being opposed or molested by any one in any way whatsoever. As far as possible, should circumstances so require, they will give their assistance to the population in conformity with the regulations of the government and with the help of his Ex cellency the Mushier. The promptest means shall be taken without delay to put an end to all cause of disunion by substituting for it rela tions of good friendship and the return of general tranquil lity, in conformity with the will and orders of the Sultan, whom Clod preserve, and with the intentions of his Excel lency the Mushier. But as it is admitted that the chief causes of the disorder lie in the indifference with which the onlers and regulations of the admini•dration are executed, the undersigned entreat his excellency to take efficacious measures for the due dis pensation of justice by causing all things to be performed iu their mitersl way, and by rendering justice to every one with the greatest iniputislity. All Nee nookatagis and officials will have to discharge their duties with seal and attention, in conformity with the regulations of the Mountain, without permitting the least injustice to be done—duties which it is hoped they wi'l perform andowily and impartially as their conscience dictates. Peransat to the preceding, peaces concluded bet wee 3 us as the conditions above-mentioned, and it has been found peter to draw up four copies of the lame, signed by each nation, two of which shall be exchanged between the iurtiei and two shall be presented to his Excellency the Ilusbeer, to be kept in the archives of the government and serve so a rule of conduct for the present and the future.

After publishing this treaty, the Semaphore de Mrtraeille a,:ds, on the authority of its correspon dent at Beyrout, that the state of affairs had im proved greatly in the Mountain, that the roads were free, and that the inhabitants were beginning to return to the spots they had abandoned on the Lebanon. MB MURDER OP A POLICNSERGEANT IN IRELAND. A t the Armagh aswzes, s:-onnat.thle Holden, of Dun g annon, was charged with the murder of S e rgeant Hoiden was reduced, on a charge of having secretly mail:. .1, .end suypectod flub-inspector Matthew* and Milelland .4 having been the cause of his disgrace. He asked Ml:len:mil to proceed with him to the house of a priest at Dungeouon, for the purpose of procuring from the r•veren.l geutletindi a certificate to the effect that he (Holden) was not married M`Clellanil complied with his request, but, the priest being from home, Holden proposed that they should apply to Mr. Quain, the protestant rector. When they hail, as is supposed, gone up about twenty yards on Mr. Quaies avenue, and while they were ....t in sight of the entrance gate, • shot was heard, Quit immediately after another, following the first in rapid succession. Holden had in his possession a large hora.pistol a•ol ...roall,r weapon of the same kind; and it is supposed that he bred to shots at hl'Clelland, a ball from one of the mauls entering the beck of the deceased at the right iode, and comiug out through the region of the heart. Tim ball from the other shot entered the head at the left side of the nose, near, the eye. and. taking a downward dirertioa, rainiest away sumo of hltielland's teeth. Holden then stabled deceased in the centre of the forehtml. Having completed this 14..51y work, he went into the town and pros e dell to a liouse.where Sub-inspector Matthews was taking tea. He left a message to the effect that Mr. It. }:',4.1,0, .1. P., wished to see Mr. Matthews immediately, and finis made his way to the avenue leading to Mr. Evans's house, and lad himself among some bushes. Mr. Matthews walked up the avenue, when he was attacked by Holden, who armed with a horse pistol and a dagger. Holden oc knked Mr. Matthews down with a blow of - the pistol on the head, fracturieg the skull. The gentleman, thus wounded, and to a great degree rendered insensible, was, of course, inameble of offering any resistance to his assail ant, who followed up the attack by giving Mr. Matthews several stabs on the had and face. While Holden was thus attacking his superior officer, he gave a shout. This attracted the attention of two men, who went in the direc tow whence the poise had proceeded. Holden, it is tom jecturel, seeing these men so near hi m , desisted from hi. :moiler...is assault upon Mr. Matthews and attempted to escape. The jury foetid him (hilly, but recommended him to mercy on account of his previous good character. TII4 primmer, who very coolly requested to be shot, was seataaced to death. FATAL ACCIDLNT CATAID BY LIONTIWIN(L—On I the afternoon of Saturday one of the most violent thunder shirms experienced for many years passed near the neigh. bourbon' .4 Windsor and Slough. Luring the whole of the morning the etnioiiphere was exceedingly heavy, and charged to it considerable extent with e'ectricity. About two °dock the Lost vtoleut peels of thunder were hearth reseinliling the dieliarges of whole perks of artillery, acesimpeuial by the most vivid flashes of lightning, and deluges of rout. This continued for about an hone, without the slightest intermission. About three o'clialt the lightning struck a labourer, named Joseph Langky, Bed three horses who were at work it, a field Ise 1 longing to Mr. l'aittrelly, Ita)liictinn, near Windsor killing them iustAelly. From an examinati o n o f th e bUdice of the deceased and horses after death, it was evident that the for, of the electric fluid in its ?swage to the earth was of the most ten lee character, the hat worn by the de ceased being torn to shreds and scattered about, while the whole •.f the upper jartiou of the body was f r i g htf u ll y di r lir: tea.

The same afternoon the lightning tare dome the wires of the electric telegreph of the Great Westicru Railway, near Slough, which were bent and twisted in au extraiinlinasy manner, of course, stopping the telegraphic riminiuuication. At Windsor the lightning in jured the roof of a portion of the infantry barrack., in Sheet-street.

Judgment reserved. (Before Vice-Chancellor Wood.) THE LIVERPOOL BOROUGH RANK r. TURN-CL The plaintiffs in this case sought to retablnh spinet the assignees in bankruptcy of the firm of Mann. Lurty and Co. a claim for advances made by them to the firm, which advances were secured bye document purporting to be an equitable mortgage of • ship, which was then registered in the mint names of two out of the three members of the firm and two other persons as owners. The main point argued in the cue had reference to the necessity for registration of such • document as that upon which thin claim was based. The ques tion turned upon a minute and critical examination of the different clauses of the recently-passed Merchant Shipping Act. On the one hand it was argued that many portions of that statute seemed to imply that a beneficial advantage might exist in third persons other than the par ties actually on the register ; and that it might even be that the legislature intended that unregistered ownerships might exist now that foreigners were no longer prohibited from owning vessels used in the English canting trade. On the other Land, it was by the defendants urged that the doctrine propounded by the plaintiffs went tooverturn all the antecedent policy of the law in this matter, and that if such were the intention of the legislature it must be shown to be plainly stated, and not left to be inferred from the ambi guous expressions referred to by the plaintiffs, which were capable of receiving effect, in accordance with the former policy of the legislature, by being referred to transmitted interests in the case of death, bankruptcy, and so forth. Mr. Oiffard and Mr. Eddie were for the plaintiff ; Mr. Rolt and Mr. De Gee for the defence; Mr.C. Hallappeared for other parties. The Vice-Chancellor, in the course of a long and elaborate of judgment, reviewed thi different portions of the Merchant Shipping Act applicable to this ease, and admitted the difficulties with which the question wu surrounded. He would have been glad had there been any decisions giving him some guide in the matter ; but in the only case belting at all upon the point. " Hutchinson v. Wright" (25 Basun), the Master of the Rolls had not thought it necessary to go into this question. After a careful consideration of the act the conclusion the Vice-Chancellor came to was this— that so far as this point was concerned the defendant was entitled to the judgment of the court. COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. JULY 28. (Before the Judge Ordinary.) DS MORA AND MANNCQUIN V. CONCHA (BY HER GUARDIAN). The case was resumed to-day. The argumenta having been brought to a close his lordship, in giving judgment, said the principal duty he had to perform was to decide whether, at the time of making his will, the testator was domiciled in England, or whether he had lost his English domicile, and regained his domicile of origin, which was in Chili. There warn no other place of domicile now in ques tion, as the Peruvian residence was given up; therefore the question rested between an English and Chilian domicile. It was impossible to avoid a suspicion that some portion of the case had been studiously left iu the dark by both parties. There was no evidence as to bow the testator acquired his largepro perty, nor any statement as to his reason for sending It over to this country. Information upon these and other matters might have enabled the court to form a better opinion upon the question ; but all he could do was to form the best opinion lie could whether the testator's domicile was English or Chilian. This question was of greet importance to the parties, because, although the will might be a valid will if made by a native of Chili according to the English law, still, if the will was to be considered as that of a do- miciled Englishman, then the distribution of the property would be very different, since, by the Chilian law, he was not allowed no great • latitude in the disposition of the property. It appeared, then, that the testator upon coming over to England had had all his property transferred to this country, and when he made his will he distinctly set forth by that will that he intended to reside here, and there was no evidence whatever to prove that he had any intention of returning to Chili, or of changing his English domicile. He made his will in the full belief that by taking an English domicile he would, in the character of an Englishman, be entitled to dispose of his property as he had done. He con sidered the statement in the will to be proof of his inten tion at that time, and though be visited France at different times afterwards, there was nothing upon which he could found a serious belief that he intended to change his domi cile. On theme grounds his opinion was that the verdict must be in favour of the will. Each party, he thought, should pay their °au costs. A&SIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME CHWlTlT.—Kunitrows, JCLY 28. CIVIL flins.—(Before Lonl Chief Justice Cockburn and Common Juries.) FRLCJD T. This was an action to recover damages for an alleged breach of a contract entered into by the defendant with the Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., and Mr. Matthews were counsel for the plaintiff ; Mr. Montague Chambers, Q.C., for the de fendant. The plaintiff in this case is Mr. Washington Friend, the proprietor of the American panorama exhibiting at St. James's-hall, and the defendant is the proprietor of the Assembly-rooms in Hamierstrtet, Gravesend. It appeared that in March but, a person named Edwards, who represent. the plaintiff in his country exhibitions, was anxious to make an arrangement for the exhibition of the panorama at Graves end, and he was recommended to the defendant, who was the proprietor of the only premises calculated for such an exhibition, and accordingly had an interview with hint. After some prelinnuerie,e au agreement was entered into, under which the plaintiff was to have the use of the rooms for two nights for four guineas, and the town was placarded, and the first representation took place on the 2nd of May. The plaintiff, it appeared, was desirous of giving a day performance on the following day, and airangementa w.ee accordingly made by hint with that view, but shortly before the commencement of the performance be received a note from the defendant, informing hint that be should require to be paid one guinea extra for the gas that was used at the day performance, it being necessary for the purposes of the exhibition that the room should be darkened. The plaintiff refused to pay the sum demanded, awl insisted that the gas was included in the agreement, and the day perfor mance did not bike place ; and it was for the loss he had sustained in consequence of this that the present action was brought against the defendant. The plaintiff was called as a witness in the course of the new, awl he stated, in answer to a question put Mr. Chain • ben, that he was an Englishman, and that the name of Washington Friend was merely a nom tie guerre. He also stated that the receipts on the first night's exhibition were about lsl., and, acconliug to his experielce, the day per formance afterwards was always more profitable than the first. About :tai people were at the doors ready to go in, when he decided upon not giving the afternoon perform ative, hut a good many orders hail been given. Mr. Chambers, at the close of the case fo- the plaintiff, retaliated that there was no evidence to go to the jury ' as there was nothing to idieow that by the agreement entered into between the parties the defendant undertook to supply gum for the day performance. The Lord Chief Justice mid he was Of the 'IMO opinion, anti he added that lie thought it was a great pity that the parties had not corns to some amicable arrangement when the real dispute between them was of so very trilling a cha racter, instead of bringiag ouch 0 cause down to the assizes for trial. His lonbiltip then said that in onler to prevent any further expense be thought the better wawa° would be for the jury to express all opinion as to the thump the plaintiff had sustained, so that it would not be Deceseratv to have a new trial in case the ruling should be set stele. The jury said they thought IW7 would be sufficient. The Lord Chief Justice then directed the plaintiff to he consuited, but gave him leave to move fora verdict for 10/. in case the court should think that his view of the agroe meet between the parties was incorrect. .tt the close of the assizes at Lewes, Peter Den-dney, who was convicted of manslaughter, was sentenced to tee yenta penal servitude.

Metcalfe for the defendant. TM.' was an action brought by the plaintiff, who is a builder, against the defendant, the proprietor of n tra velling menagerie, for injuries mildewed by the plaintiff during • public I.erformance in the defendant's cancan, owing to the negligence of the defendant's servant. The defendant was at Great Yarmouth with his menagerie on the Slat of January twit, and the plaintiff went on the seining of that day to see it. Among other at tractions was a performinoe called •' The Lion Hunt," which was conducted by /I negro named Macumo, who is in the habit at going into a des full of bees, and mak* them go through • performance, during which the sego fires off three pistol. Jimmie went into the den on the evening in question, and began the performance. At that time the plaintiff was standing in the place appointed for the specta ton, and when the second pistol wen tired felt that he was shot. He fell down and was carried out, and was taken to ' a chemist's shop. and then to Mr. Stafford's surgery. On Mr. Stafford making an examination of the plaintiff, he found that some substance, which turned out to he per used instead of wadding had entered his eye, and was so firmly embedded in it that it required considerable force to extract it. The plaintiff suffered rely , much, and has lost I the sight of the eye. On behalf of the defendant it was contended that there was no negligence, and that the pistol west off by accident ; there were openings at the top of the no in the direction of which the pistols were always fired ; and Macomo, when called, said that he was ' to lire the second pistol when he saw a lion which had it • at Norwich coming at him, which obliged him to change his position, and as the lion sprang past him the pistol went off, but that his linger was not on the trigger at the time, and that the pistol meat have gone off in the wrong direction owing to the lion having hit it as he passed.

(More Mr. Baron CbannelL) VLVNER r. PARTIUDGL-BRZACII 01 , TROKISZ 01 , MARRIAGE. Mr. Collier, Q.C., and Mr. Kamlake were counsel for the plaintiff ; and Sir F. Slade and Mr. Gurney appeared fur the defendant. This was an action to recover damages for breach of promise of marriage. The plaintiff was a young woman in humble cirenmstanoes, aged about thirty, and the de fendant was a farmer of good position, residing at Netheridge, in the north of Devon. The plain tiff went to live with the defendant's father when she was 16 years of age, as a domestic servant. Shortly afterwards he paid her a good deal of attention, and she was induced, it was alleged, to abandon her engagement with anotheryoung man on the defendant's promising to marry her on his father s death. The defendant kept her company for some time, and ultimately he seduced her, and took lodgings for her. She was confined, and during her confinement de fendant visited her, behaved affectionately to her, and repeated his promise of marriage. This was ten years ago, and the plaintiff had ever since waited, in hopes that the defendant would fulfil his promise. He had not done so. but a short time ago had married a Mi,s Huiah. The learned counsel for the plaintiff said she had had letters from the defendant, but that she had destroyed them. He called several witnesses, however, who said they beard the defendant make the alleged promise. }or the defendant, Sir F. Slade made an energetic and amusing speech, contending that there was no real proof that the promise of marriage bad ever been made. His Lordship having summed up, The jury consulted for some time, and being unable to agree, they were locked up. After an absence of twenty minutes, they returned into court with • verdict fur the , plaintiff—damages, 1001. THE POLICE COURTS. SOUTHWARK. Mr. James Hooper and Mr. William Francis, gentle men trading under the name of William Francis and Co., leather and hide factors, in the leather market, and of New Weston-street, Bermondsey, were charged upon information before Mr. Burcham, for fraudulently converting the pro ceeds of two bills of exchange, amounting to :TX., to their own use, such having been entrusted to them to get dia. counted by Mr. James Summers. farmer, of Cheltenham. Mr. Pearce, the barrister, attended for the defendants, and Mr. Crafter conducted the prosecution. Mr. Crafter, in opening the proceedings, said that the charges he had to make against the defendants, gentlemen of reputation and well known to the commercial world, was under the 7 and 8 Geo. IV., cap. 29, sec. 49, which makes it a felony for any One to convert to his own use the proceeds of a bill of exchange, or other security, without the sanction of the owner thereof. The defendants were leather and hide factors in an extensive way in Bermond sey, and they did business with leather dealers and furriers in all parte of the country. Mr. Summers, of Cheltenham, was one of their customers, and had large dealings with them. In the early part ofJune last hetninsinitted a bill of exchange for 5221. 12s. to them to get di+counted, with the re quest that the money should be forwarded to him as soon as that was done. Some communication took place about the tightness of the money market, and near the end of the month Mr. Summers received information that the bill bad beendiacounted, bat instead of sending him the ash, which they received for his bill, according to his instruction; they forwarded him a worthless bill of exchange for MtW., asking him to get it discounted at Cheltenham. Two days after wards the defendants suspended payment, which irritated the prosecutor to that extent that he tads the present pro ceetfings. Mr. Summers having stated the facts of the case, add, in answer to Mr. Burcham, that he never saw Mr. Francis, nor did any portion of the transaction take place with him, but only with Mr. Hooper. Mr. Buirehatu mid if that were so them was an end of the case against Mr. Francis, and he must be diichamed. As to Mr. Hooper, he considered that he had received no authority from Mr. Summers to convert the money to his own use. Mr. Summers's letter particularly specified that the bill was to be discounted as early as poiaible, and the cash was to be sent to him,although he was in no hurry for it. The question was one for a jury to decide whether Hooper was justified in usiug the money, therefore he should lend - the case for trial. The defendaut was accordingly committed for trial, but bail wee accepted for bin appearance. LAMBETH. Henry Standing, residing at No. 14, Brighton-place, New Kent-mud, was charged on suspicion of having set light to a letter-box with a Inciter match, at the house No. 7, Brighton.place. A police constable stated that at about half-put 3 o'clock that morning lie saw a man, he believed the prisoner, attempt to strike a light with a Inciter match, in which be did not sue med. He, however, ultimately succeeded in striking a light, and ran away towards No. 14, into which house he went. Immediately after he left, he (the constable) observed • quantity of dame come out of the letter-box, and the door in which it was was on fire. Witnera went to the house the prisoner entered. He knocked repeatedly. The door was onened by the prisoner. The constable observed to him that he wanted to know who was the man who had just conic in. The prisoner said that he did not know any. thing at all about him. The constable said, " It's very strange, for I have just seen a man come in here who set fire to the fishmonger's." The prisoner observed, " I do not know anything at all about it." Ho was eventually taken into custody. le answer to Mr. Norton the constable stated that the box smelt strongly of Laphtha, and that on being conveyed to the station-house the prisoner said that he put the naphtha there, and that lie hail no iutention to destroy lit or property, but wanted to frighten his neighbour. The fire was put out in a short time, much damage having been dune. The prisoner was remanded. THAMES. A diminutive Malay seaman, named WM. Dixon, aged 22, was charged with dealing 30 sovereign; a note for 100 rupees on a bank at Calcutta, four knives, two razors, • silver hand, and other articles, the property of Sheik Dudes, the aerang, or chief of a Lancer crew on board the ship Hark away, in the West India Dock. The prosecutor said that on Monday last be and several others of the crew of the Harkaway left the ship, and the prisoner remained on board as ship-keeper. When they re turned he found that the prisoner was gone, and the money and other articles above specified had be, it abstr.ieteil from a small box, locked up in a teak wood chest, belonging to him. Both the box and chest bad been 'woken open. It appeared from further evidence that the prisoner had gone on shore awl had purchased a quantity of wearing append with a portion of the money, and the rest had been stolen from him by some loose women. lie had been to • public house, and had left SI. in charge of the lundhuly, which he received again the following day. When the pri soner was taken into custody he had only one shilling about him, and he had been robbed of some of the new clothes he had bought. lie stated on arriving at the station that he lad taken the money and had buried some of it. Unfor tunately nothing could be recovered of the property, which the complainant had been saving up for • long time. The cheque upon the (lilcutta Bank was a duplicate, and was now useless. It appeared that since the priaoner arrived in this country, in March last, Ito had signed the ship's articles of two vessels houml for Calcutta, and had received advance notes from the captain of each, sod theu refused to go in either ship. The prisoner made • long defences to the effect that he had been ill-used by the prosecutor and others after tine rob bery ; that he had taken no money. and had got no money. Mr. Yardley oununitted the pinioner for trial. Tag LIVERPOOL POISONING CAKE4.—On Saturilay the invest4stion into the cases of poisoning charged against Thomas Winslow, was resumed at the Liverpool Police Court, before Mr. T. 8.

(From the Circular of Mews. Culverwell, Brooks, and Co., dated Friday Evening.) The tallow market has presented no new feature of mo ment during the week to report. The business }moilig, although rather more restricted than of late, has, neverthe less, been of good extent for the time of year, the more particularly so when the transactions lately e ff ected are con sidered. A cargo (731 casks) of Taganrog (chiefly mutton tallow) has been placed on the market and reported mostly sold at 525. 6d. per cwt. all round as imported. The imports during the week have been large (5,543 casks), but it should be observed that nearly the whole of the Y.C. has been re ceived on account of the Moscow speculators, who not only continue to put the tallow in the warehouse, but hold almost the entire stock here. To-day the narket has been firm at the following quotations, viz.:-33e. 3d. for Ukraine, and 52e. 9d. for tine Y.C. on the spot ; 52e. 6d. for delivery in July to September, and 53. 6d. per cwt. fur Oct. to Dec. ,The imports since Monday up to last evening have been 5,543 casks. The deliveries have been 733 casks, and the present stock of all kinds is 35,962 casks, being an increase of 4,452 casks when compared with the quantity on hand this day week. Town melted may be said to have been without alteration during the week, the principal business having been at 525. 6d. net, while in some few instances rather lower prima have been accepted. There lea, however, been no presiure on the market, and the melters still report the quantity to be much deficient. A review of the increased weekly deliveries of the foreign article since the Ist of June, when compared with those in the same period of the three preceding years, is a feature deserving attention with respect to the future ; for, should the same comparative de fi ciency exist in our home Production during the autumn months as for some time put, it must necessarily result in a largely in creased consumption of Y.C. As we stated in our report of the 22nd ultimo : "even a comparatively slight falling off throughout the United Kingdom for any length of time would materially increase the demand for the foreign Kr ticle." To-day " the Market Letter" has been unaltered from 55e., or say 525. &I. per cwt. net. The public ales to-day resulted as follows ; South American proved in fair request, and we have to note an advance of 3d. to 6d. per cwt. on the middling and' fair qualities when compared with the rates obtained last week, the 121 casks offered having sold rather spiritedly as follows :-Fine. 53.. ; fair, 525. Al . ; 52a. 9d. (one lot 53. 6d.) ; goo to tine deep yellow, 53., and 51e, for dragged, Isc. A steady inquiry has existed during the week and sales to a fair extent have been made at 53. per cwt. for fine quality. Palm oil continues in moderate request, and to affect ales of middling and fair qualities rather lower prices had to be 'emoted. Of 255 casks offered, about 130 casks found buyers at the sale at 455. for very fine Lagos ; 445. to 445. 6d. for good to fine ; 42e. 9d. to 43e. 3d. fur middhug, down to 395. per cwt. for common. Palm Nut Oil-Three casks middling quality brought 35e. 9d. per cwt. Cocoa Nut Oil-This market continues very firm with an upward tendency, notwithstanding present rates are comparatively very high. 216 casks Cochin offered, all sold spiritedly at 48e. to 43. lid. (chiefly 48a. 3d.) for good to fine, and 48e. to 48s. 3d. for middling, being au advance of fully 3d. per cwt. on last week's prices. About 40 tons Sydney were well competed for as follows: fine, 45a. 6d. ; good, 455. to 455. 6d. ; middling, 445. SAL to 455. down to 43e. &I. per cwt. (less 2) per cent discount) for rather or dinary, Ac., which prices are 6d. to le. per cwt. higher than those obtained for the lower qualities last week. There was not any Ceyloa offered. Fine quality is held for 475. per cwt. LEEDS WOOLLEN.—JutY 2S.—Both the cloth-halls were moderately well attended this morning, and a fair steady business was transacted in most descriptions of sea sonable fabric. COTTON GOODS. —MANcri rsrrn, Jt:LT 28. —The market continues dull, and prices, as compared with last week, are rather lower. On Tuesday spinners were taking ;,d. to } d. per pound lower, and the majority of sales have been at d. lower. Since Tuesday some reports state that cops, as well as bundled yarns and warps, are slightly steadier. There is, however, but little busmen; doing, and producers are rather elision. sellers. In cloths prices are also a shade lower. For domestics sales have had to be rather forced, and prices are consequently rather irregular. T cloths of superior makes are rather steadier, but the following re ports of actual sales will give a better idea of their position than any general statement :-23 inch, 14 by 13, Jilbs., Is. 7d. per piece ; 28 inch, 14 by 13, silbs., Is. 2d. per piece ; 29 inch, 14 by 12, Gibs., ss. 41d. per piece ; 30 inch, 12 by 12, 4ilbs., 4s. tid. per piece ; 32 inch, 14 by 13, Gibs., ss. 2.1. per piece ; ditto 16 by 16, 711 a., 7a per piece ; 33 inch, 12 by 12, slbs., 4s. 9d per piece. Long-cloths are very quiet, and prices rather weaker. Printers' also continue rather weaker, though compara tively better prices are obtained for narrower makes than for most other fabrics, but 26 inch printers, 14 by 13, 58 yards 611 e. Boz., have sold at Ba. lid. per piece. Shirt ings for India and China, which were rather weaker in price on Tuesday, are not in so much demand, the overland mail being now due, and buyers being disposed to wait ad vices before further operations. For 38 inch shirtings prices are again weaker, and the demand is within the production. CORN. —CAMBRIDGF, JULY 28.—A very dull market and the:price of everything the same as last week.

At our corn market to-day the quantity of wheat offered was scarcely so large a. usual, but samples came to hand in good condition. Wheat sold readily at an advance of ls. to 24. ; white was disposed of at Ms. to 645. ; red, 575. to 61s. per 3d stone. There was very little alteration in the value of malting barley (which was a small show), and prices ranged from 36e. to 425. per quarter ; other description. were disposed of at fully former terms, which varied from 345. to 36.. per quarter. The demand for oats was more active, and the supply being scarcely equal to the demand, the extreme rates of last Saturday were readily obteined, old samples making:l3s. to 36.1. ; new, 30s. to 34.. per 24 stone.

NORWICH, JCLY V.—At today's market there was rather an increased supply of wheat, and the millers not beiir• very free buyers trade was slow on the terms of last Sat urday. White wheat is quoted this evening at 60.. to bss. ; red ditto, 565. to 60s. per qr. Flour, .11e. lid. per sack from the miller. In the early part of the week the weather win excessively wet, with a very low temperature, but since funds) , a favourable change has taken place, which must prove beneficial to the growing crops. Harvest, however, cannot commence in less than from three weeks to a month hence. Norm:caul, JULY V.—There wee a moderate share of wheat on offer at our corn exchange this morning, the supply *insisting of red and white aorta. All descriptions were a ready sale at en advance of 2s. White made Ws. and 65e. ; red, and 02s. per 3G stone. The show of barley was exceediugly scanty, the few samples exhibited being principally grinding qualities, and scarcely anything was done in malting ; the former was disposed of at 325. and tie. per 30 stole. Of oats the supply was scanty, and the deluded proved firm at the full currencies of the week previous, ;ma in some instances prices were the turn upwards; old, 20s. to 35e. ; new, t Si. to :Na per 24 stone.

A good deal of hay yet lies in the fields, and a large portion of it will be gathered in poor con dition. OLFORD.

Buyers were by no means plentiful, and as they refused t., soh.. to the farmers' terms except from necessity trade . eeedingly dull. White wheat ruled from Gib. to ti w. ; r. 55e. to 601.

Holders asked hi. . prices, and as several of the millers were compelled t. I . chase, an advance of le. in some iustancea was ideal, though on the whole the market must be quoted the as last week. The reports with reference to the wh. crops are highly favourable, although the recent I. mins laid them somewhat, yet there is every prospect large crop. HEYTER, JULY 28.-The stands at this corn , change were but moderately supplied,' and only a .: trade effected. For best samples of both English foreign fully 2s. per quarter over the terms of last a.. was demanded, and reluctantly agreed to by millers, s! however, contented themselves in purchasing iii retail quantities, and satisfying immediate demand.. the whole the trade was exceedingly languid. The derv. for burley is slightly on the increase, but the trade in U. article continues dull, and prices are nominally the San.. thereof last week. The oat trade exhibited rather more er mess, prime parcels fetching the comparatively high which have prevailed for some time. Beans still 111a.110._ their value, but peas are dull. The flour trade has exhiht. rather more animation, and prices have advanced Is. to per sack. The accounts from the hop districts agree ii, scribing the plants as looking in very bail condition, t. cold weather and continued rain having injured them, it , feared, beyond hope of recovery. Then can be no the crop will be less than an average one, and the correspoodingly low. Wiserett, JULY 28.-The weather has improved si. Tuesday, but still cold.

HARDWARE.—BIRMINGNAM, JULY 23.—The trade this town is again rather dull : the foreign orders are small. and the decline in that respect is not made up by anythr., connected with the home trade ; in fact, that is turalerat, and has rather fallen off than increased in the course of as last ten days. In the agricultural district' the hay hamlet is occupying attention, and the markets are thinly attended, the consequence is that the retail shopkeepers are doir; less business than usual ; the factors who do with the north of England also complain that trade is dull, certainly the orders they are giving out are less than the average, ariii probably from the politically disquieting eirearnstaws which are depressing trading operations generally. So far as this town is concerned, there is a steady, but nota spirited trade going on. Some manufacturers have a month'. order on their Woks, but this is quite exceptional, the bulk of them being very closely worked up. At present, h, s. ever, the workpeople have not been upon short time ; there is more of unskilled labour out of employment t 14.3 there was a month ago. -- - - VESSELS SPOKEN WITH.

Tlie 'Acre• tory read the report, which, after referring to the leudiu; feature of the treaty, stated that if the manufacturer,. this country could show to Mr. I.`ols'.eu and the Erlich Supreme Council of State that no trade could be carried • u between England and France uuless the duties to le imposed were axed at 5 per cent., or 1101110 other approximate rate, the information would be car. fully _mouldered and compared with information fr.., other sources, so as to arrive at a correct state • the case as a ff ecting the above trade. and duties would le fixed at rates to admit of trade and competition. The obj,st of the visit to Paris was to show that the effect of a duty of 30 per cent. on yarns, or manufactures of linen awl jut,, would be as prohibitory as the 100 or 150 per oent. hitherto been. The deputation had a long interview wit!. Mr. Cobden on the Sth of July, and gave him a paper tug the position of the spinners and manufacturers in Frame and in this country. That document was also read to %Ix Council of State. The ultimate decision as to the rate,. .4 duty will take place, it is expected, in September or O c t, her next. The report also recommended the appointment of a delegate when these questions came before the council to he discussed. •- PARKINB and Gorro, 24 and 25, Oxford-street, By tar the largest stock In London.
