We are happy to perceive, from the concurring testimony of a number of Provincial Journals in the manufacturing districts, dirt a decisive turn has taken place in the state cf trade in that part of the country. Though the favour able symp , orns may not be SO marked as the more sanguine of our late speculltors might wish, it is evident that the .patient begins to think his cure at least pow•ible, and this par-ouion itself is a happy omen of the speedy removal of tll 4 .7cultiei which have arisen, in a great measure, from the ghorny imaginations of our countrymen. We do net t: can to assert that the difficulties have not been real. The u.kfortune is, that real evils often arise from, anti always are increased by, imaginary terrors. We did not feel so depressed as some of our contemporaries, by the sudden r. , ru7sion which agitated the commercial world, and we anav net, perhaps, go to such lengths in our favourable ar - ricipations as they may do, b!caust: we are in the habit of 'Acing to the hare Teeny—end neither expect ncr desire 'try sudden and supernatural increase of national prospe rity. If people had confined themselves to the bare letter the CHANCELLOR of the EMU:I/CPR'S speeches in ,i'arliament, they would never have Lccn led by them into those wild ideas of the extravagant extension of con, I..arce, which they now ascribe to that Gentleman's ili r.ottr,vs. Did his Majesty's Ministers ever throw any teei'itiel in the way of thee lunatic schemes for Joint Stock Companies, which absorbed so much of the Iptluary of the nation? So far were they from doing so, that they repeatedly warned the people of the mischiefs in which they were about to involve them selves by them. They told them distinctly and incessantly wisat must be the consequences of many of these wild beliemes. They could not check the* in the first place, from their respect for the liberty of the subject, anti in the next place, because in checking the bad they v:ould have destroyed the good, and many most advantageous objects might undoubtedly bave been accomplished by joint-stock companies. Nor Were his MAJESTY'S Ministers less care ful to warn. the mercantile world against the dangers of 4over--.pculation in South America, for that is the quarter in which excess bas principally taken place. The CHAN i;LL Lon of the ExcH Lunar. could not till lately bring for wud the calculations of revenue in support of his rccom .men4ationr. Re Was epaplnctrl, as every thinking man must be, of the solidity of the basis on which our national' prosperity rests; he stated his conviction; be braught for ward his calculations, and mentioned the conclusions to be drawn from them. He is not to be blamed if people drew false or exaggerated conclusions beyond those which he suggested. We do not meat. to assiime the language of apology when we ought to use that of panegyric; and the , . attacks of Journals whose nit is always to rail should not have induced us to make even thee few remarks, if we had I not otserrrd that some wtitersjscenstomed to appreciate with considerable justness the merits of the present Admi nistration; have thought it necessary to take up the pen on this occasion. For our parts, we have not the slightest oljection to admit the falling off in the revenue dur ing the late quarters. We differ from the Opposi tionists only in one particular. We consider the decrease, not as a proof of want of foresight in his Majesty's Government, but as a 'severe and effectual chastisement on speculators for neglecting to attend to the warnings which were so often thrown out, in order to re strain their rash attempts and unprofitable exertions. In fact, the late crisis is nothing extraordinary. A person ac customed to reflect on history, could easily have foreseen it• Not a single war has ever terminated in this country, with out producing distress in the first instance, ridiculous spe culation in the next, and conseqUent distress afterwards. It is even to be feared that another era of mud specula tion trill follow the present season of Andreas,. if Ilse people do not take warning by the recent calamities, as well as by the history of former ages. For our parts, we deprecate any resumption of the ohl schemes of trade, even if they should have the effect of temporarily relieving the distress of the labouring population. It is not an easy lemon for a hotly of merchants to learn, but it must he learnt, to employ only as much labour 'and capital every thy as will supply the consumption of that .day. Hume says, that a rise in the price of provisions is benefi cial in times of scarcity, by obliging men to contract their consumption. This principle is the basis of political science, and on the same gronntls we assert that occasional re-actions are necessary in seasons of sanguine speculation, in order to check the useless employment of human labour in manufacturing more than is reiuired. CITY, SATURDAY VIEWING. The speculations for a rise in the Funds have been con tinued to-day, but they have not been carried to so large an amount as yesterday. The improvement, nevertheless, on the closing quotations of yesterday afternoon, has rather exceeded g per cent., and on those of Monday l per cent. The firm state of the market appears to have occasioned very general surprise, as, at the commencement of the ac count, the jobbers got rid of stock, not only in the regular bargains, but indirectly by options, under the conviction that the distresses experienced not only by the commercial, but the manufacturing interests, would absorb the major part of the floating capital arising from the payment of the dividends. It is 61,4 to guard against the losses sus rained by these transactions, that the Jobbers have been compelled to make large purchases, although much against their inclination, being still willing, by wagers, to back the rise against the fall, during the whole of the Account. The last price of Consols for Account yesterday afternoon was 77j; opened this morning at 77i, and advanced, with out any re-action, to 781 buyers. Consols for Money touched the same price. An effort was for a time made to bring about a re-action, a few of the brokers effecting sales of Consols for next week, anti the Account, but did not de press them below ; the closing price was 78i. Reduced Annuities have not been sold higher than 78/; making the difference between this Stock and the one just men tioned not more than ; per colt., whilst on the last settling day, and for some days subsequent, Reduced Annuities were sold much above their proportionate value. The Four per Cents. have been sold as high as 93g, but in the New Four per Cents., or the Scrip, there has been scarcely anything doing. The demand for Exchequer Bills has rather increased, and those which were sold yesterday at Its. premium, have to-day fetched 14s. premium, while the more current price of India Bonds has been 20s. premium. Foreign as well as English Stock has been sought after to-day, but the quotations have not undergone any mate rial alteration. Russian have been sold at 625, and still appear to be rather a favourite Sto, k for investment. Aus trian and Prussian must be quoted nomirally only a shade higher. If we may judge from the little speculation in R_•publican Bonds, the account fixed for Monday is very nearly settled, and the principal part of the business will be that of adjusting the differences. Mexican, which opened at 4SI, has this afternoon been done at 50. Colom bian rose to 331. fell afterwards to 321, but closed at within per cent. of the highest price during the day. Peruvian Bonds have risen from 251 to 26. An account appeared in a Morning Paper, with parti culars of the Kings departure from his Palace, after hold ing his Court on Thursday, which, in several instances, was very incorrect. It observed upon the King not hav ing a military escort, which is no novel circumstance. It is stated that there were no police officers, whereas there were about a dozen. Friday the Princess Augusta visited the Duke of York at dlr. Greenwood's Villa, Brompton Park, and took leave of her Royal Brother previous to her leaving town for the season. The same (lay Sir Henry Ilalford attended the Royal Duke. On Saturday Mr. P. McGregor attended his Royal Highness, and reported that the Royal Duke was going on as well as could be wished. In the evening his Royal Highness rode nut in his open carriage, and passed through St. James's Park. The Princess Augusta left her residence in the King's Palace, St. James's, on Saturday morning, in her carriage and tour, tur her seat at rro g nua e• Saturday morning, Earl Ilathuratleft town, on a visit to the Elrl and Countess of Harcourt, at their seat, St. Leo nard's Hill, where the Countess Bathurst had arrived the prucetling day. The Noble Earl and Countess will pro ' ccrd from St. Leonard's Hill to their scat in Gloucester ' slam, for the season. _ _ tiorday morning the E trl of Harrowby left town on a tour. The N.,ble Earl embarked on board a steam-packet at the Tower-stairs for Calais, at six o'clock, and proceeded to Genera, on a visit to his son, Lord Sandon, where a re sidence is engasttel for several weal. The carriage and lu. , gage oldie Noble Earl were shipped on Friday. Ir. secretary Canniug left town yesterday morning (it was understood) for the residence of Sir George iVarrender, at Lochcad. Tim LATE ELOPEMENT.—The fashionable world are lost curprise ' the parties being both very young. T he Lady left behind her all her valuable jewels, and even her purse, containing nearly a hundred sovereigns, on the toilette table. So high-minded was she, in consreinence of having brought no fortune to her Insband. 'I he seducer, the same age as the husband—namely, twenty-five, is the son of a General Officer much esteemed by our Isle King. The elopement tool: place at the hour of one in the morning of Tuesday last, from the town house of the husband, who was absent from London. The frail fair fled, without bat or bumaet, to a neighbouring street, where a barouche and four were in waiting. Not one of servants was in the secret. The husband is rich, but the paramour poor ! The English Gentleman, Sunday paper, states that the favourite gentlemen of the long robe are said already to have received briefs marksd with. these words " C.C. Ast!ey c. Liarth.

This afternoon his Majesty and suite took an airing, and diove down the Long Walk to the Castle, where the King was oocupied some time in Inspecting the various works. Yesterday her Royal Highness the Princess Augusta ar rived at Frogmore. This morning her Royal Highness, attended by her Lady in Waiting, heard divine service in the new parish church, where an excellent sermon was preached by the Rev. Mr. Gossett, Rector of the parish. The grand Regatta on the Thames tbok place yesterday evening; it being election night itith the young gentlemen, there was a great assemblage of company. They started from Windsor-bridge to Surly-hall. The fire-works in the evening were very beuatiful. CHE - L7i 4 iiirjE4 - ii, JULY 29.

The Committee of the Cheltenham Turf Club have, with a view to benefit our town, altered period of holding our races from July to June. AI It . IitISK7SSON. Hr. Ferguson, whe was tied/ along with Lord Thanet for the rescue of O'Connor, at Maidstone, and who has since belonged to the English bar, at Culcutta, has been elected Member of Parliament for Dumfriesshire. His friends, on Wednesday se'nnight, as appears from the Dumfries Paper, celebrated his return by a dinner at Dum fries, which was numerously attended. We mention the circumstance only to introduce the speech made by the Honourable Gentleman, when theltealth of Mr. Huskisson was proposed. Mr. Fenonasox Raid, " That Is a °rifleman I have known Tor the hat thirty-five years. He was the friend of my youth, and I trust he will be the ft icnd of my age. Great as those talents are which he has displayed in the Cebiact.and unceasing as his labours have been in the details of business, he who estimates his worth without knowing more, possesses but half the knowledge necessary for appreciating the man. In private life, he cultivates 'IA practises every virtue. His benevolence and liberalty are unbounded, and he seeks, withoJt being solicited, opportunities of secretly relieving discreet." Mere the Gentleman mentioned instances, which we forbear to publish, front a regard to the feelings of those who ex. perienced his kindness.] He the , . proceeded—`• Extensive as his virtues and his knowledge are, and upright and enlightened as his political career has been, still we have sometimes differed in opinion, and we may differ again ; but so long as I shall have the honour of taking a part in the discussion of public measures, none shall ever have my support except such as I conceive are calculated to promo'e the public good. I may say thus much—that I will consider It my duty, because I consider it the interest of my country, to support even measure that may be introduced to in:letter lire energies ; and I shall consider it qually my duty, because it is also her interest, to oppose every measure that would forge chains fur them anew." THE KING'S THEATRE. Saturday having Leen announced as the last night of Madame Pace's appearance in England for the present opera season, the high respect for her magnificent and ex traordinary talents, by those •who have previously wit nessed her superior excellence, and the intense curiosity of that part of the play-going public whn were yet strangers to the wonderful powers she pdssesses, caused an unprece dented scene at the entrance of the them; t The doors were surrounded for a considerable time before the hour of open ing by great numbers of persons, apparently of considerable respectability, and, on their opening, the rush was very con siderable, but, we are happy to say, was not attended with the slightest ill consequence. Madame Pasta is, with the exception of that astonishing creature, Catalani, the only foreigner who can be raid to have enjoyed the sole and un divide] approbation of " John Bull ;" and deservedly so. Her singing, though not poisessed of the dazzling bril liancy and astonishing powet of Catalani, is certainly equally as effective upon her auditors. It possesses a depth of expression, a delicacy of taste, with an exceeding rich and varied power of voice; so pure a feeling for her sub ject, and so subdued a desire of aggrandizing herself at its expense. In fact, Madame Pasta proves in the perform ance of theparts and execution of the music allotted to her, that her taste is as pure, and her love for the art as ardent, as her powers of expression and execution are unrivalled. Another grand characteristic of this exquisite "CLilii of Song," is, that she never sacrifices her subject to meretri cious ornament, or unnecessary display, but appears uni formly to fall at once into the sentiment of the scene, as connected with and developed hy the music; the conse quence of which is, that the public are gratified with that seldom-seen phenomenon, a perfect performance. Her acting of the arduous character of Medea, on Saturday night, was characterized with all the extraordinary excellence that has already secured her such an enthusiastic reception in this country ; and her farev:ehl was received by her audi tors with that mingled feeling of regret and admiration, which was as honourable to them as it must have been gratifying to herself. At the dropping of the curtain, the plaudits were loud and long continued ; at length it again rose, and Madame Pasta came forward, escorted by Signor Terri, and accompanied by Signor Curioni and Madame Caradori. Pasta seemed fully sensible of the honour con ferred, and curtseyed in all directions in acknowledgment of it. On her departure the curtain fell, and the orchestra commenced playing the national air of " God save the King," when the phalanx of British beauty, which presented itself from the top to the bottom of the house, was a most magnificent spectacle. The air was not sung, as had been expected. NEWEST LONDON FASHIONS. [From the IWorld of Fashion.l Bate. OnEss. —The petticoat of gros do Naples, of beautiful Athol-twat): with this is a corsage of white satin, with straps across the bust of tartan, foamed into a kind of stomacher by a band of the same, reaching from the shoulders down the waist, on each side of the straps.

BRIGHTON RACES, DRIGIRTOX, SATURDAY NIORT. The number of arrivals since our last have been unpre cedentedlv great ; at every hour of the day and night, car riages anti chaises have been pouring in in rapid succession, Upwards of twenty coaches came in yesterday, and as tnany to-day, loaded with passengers; and we are assured that as many more could not have brought more than a portion of those who have•been left behind for want of conveyances. To our own knowledge, more than one hundred were left behind at the Elephant and Castle on Thursday last. The coaches from Oxford, Southampton, Lewes, Worthing, &c. are also daily booked full; and we feel justified in asserting that the present will equal, if not surpass, all preceding meetings in the number and respectability of its visitors.— The uattnal consequence of this influx of company is, that the stt'eets, the libraries, and the different promenades , have been crowded to a degree almost without parallel. Lu combe's and Tuppen's libraries are filled every evening; at the former, the singers are Mr. and the Misses Henry, and Matter Burgett—at the other, Mr. Yarnold and Miss Weaver • noue of whom, we must allow, are beyond the respectable. Ireland's Gardens have been very liberally ratroniztd. On Thursday there was a n orand public breakfast, under the auspices of her Grace the Duchess of Richmond, who was present with her lovely children ; his Grace the Duke of Argyll and the Ladies Paget were also present, and up wards of six hundred fashionables. The excilent band of the sill Hussars, by the permission of Lord Wm. Russell, I.lliyud during the fete, which went ofFwith such eclat that it will be repeated next Siturday, under the patronage of the Duke and Duchess of Richmond, Duke of Argyll, &c. There will be a gala and fireworks each night of the Races. A few days ago it was thought here that his RoyalHigh nes.; the Duke ofYotk would harcht en sufficiently recovered to attend our tact!, but we regret tq find that this expects lion will not be raalizeth, the Royal physicians having re commended his Royal flightless to continue for thepresent at Brompton. It would be ungrateful to say that we do net miss his Royal Highness, who has been our great patron for a long peried, and charmed all classes by his kindness and affability. We have been enabled to collect a more complete list of the company than we gave in our last, by which it will be seen that the attendance of the Nobility ar.d Gentry is any thing but small. Most of the distinguished individual, whose names appear in the following account were on the race-course today, and arc expected - to remain here for some days. Duke of Argyll, Duke and Duchess of Richmond, the Ladies Paget, Earls Egremont, Mouth, Lisburn. Coventry, Mount. Charles; Lords Somerset, Barnard, Lennox. Dittiwieli, J.

About twelve o'clock all ranks began to move towards the Dawns, the reads leading to which represented moving masses of people. Dy one o clock, that part appropriated for thißace-Course wan literally covered—each side of the course was lined with equipages of every specks, while the space between them and the railing waa occupied by the pedestrian part of the company. Altogether, a more imposing or animatt d scene could not have been imagined. The;day's spurt was very fine, and gave ample satisfac tion to all present. TI c following is a correct statement, by which it will be seen that the Whalebone horses main tained the bight character which their previous performances have obtained for them.

At the turn Stumps and Pan got abreast of Whipcord, and immediately after Dahlia got up the pace then became treti.endoun, and Whip cord was soon beat off ; the rest of the ground was run nearly head and head between the three till they were within a few strides, when Stumps made a grand push, and carried off the stakes by about halt a length, but not without difficulty, which was owing to the heavy weight he careied.

MANCHESTER, JULY :IL There have been cone sales made here this day, as well as yeeter• day, and without any deehne in the prices, but without any prMits to the manufacturers ; on the contrary, 1 believe, some sacrifice has been mode on their part, in order to continue working their fac tories; and to prevent, as far as they can, any inercess of pauper ism, which must always exist here in proportion to the want of cm ployment. It is considered a favourable symptom of the revival if trade that any sales have been effected ; and some persons, in their laudable anxiety for returning prosperity, give, I fear, too flattering an account of the prices nt which these sales have been made. It may, 1 believe, with truth be stated, tilet there has been no declire of prices, and that the sales were rather ere.n.ivc, considering the want of confidence which prevails. Some of die manufacturers in this neighbourhood, instead of dis. charging any of their men, have reduced tlet number of working deka ; and by this means continued to all a portion of wages, which preserves them from actual want. There arc no disturbances in this town, nor its vicinity. There was an attempt last night to get up a alerting of the unemployed tradesmen at Stockport, but the number which collected were not mere than from one to two hundred, anti even these did not form into a regular body, or appuiet a Chairman neither did I hear that any resolutions were proposed for the occasion. The people pre. sent formed into little groups, and talked over as many subjects almost as there were persons present ; but po person had the hardi hood even to suggest any intemperate measures; they were all, probably, deterred by the arrest of one of their associates, a man of the name of Whitelege, who was taken up on Thursday, and committed to Uhe:der gaol. I understand the chew against hint is, that he was present at the late meeting in lilverpoW,when the ad vantage of the pike over the musket was introduced as a subject of discussion. The house of a man of the name of Blisekehaw, at Stockport, was yesterday searched by the constable; twenty-six numbers of Paine,: Rights of Mon were found there, and taken possession of. An edition of this work is now selling in Man chester for one penny a copy. In the same house, as a fit companion to the works of Paine, was a parody on &drum by Cathie, which altered the same fate as its companion, We are hcppy to say, that there has beep - liiis week a slight shade of immoralist in the commercial affairsof this town (m en. cheater).

Between Glasgow and Dumbarton, the crops on both sides of the Clyde are fully ripe, and on Tuesday afternoon shearers were at wcrk in every direction. The straw is c wr.siderably weightier in general than it is in the in!ar.al fi Ids in this vicinity. The pastures have improved greatly since the rains, and have now a healthy and vigorous ap• prams ce. In some situations, this season has been par. ticularly unfavourable for Georgian oats. They are ear. her than the common oats, and this dry season has forced them t t a premature ripeness. In many of the fields the straw is so short, it will not shear, and farmers are pullin; it. Th ais both a disagreeal le and let ious business. The dry we,.ther is, however, favourable for the process, as the rots cc me up with little or no earth about them.—G/a.g Ch ?TA i le. The harvest •proceeds in this neighbourhood (Win chester) as rapidly as possible, but there is a general coin. plaint of want of hands, in consequence of which the wheat cannot be cut quick enough to prevent a great waste by the brittirg out of the corn. A considerable quantity is al ready carried, for the weather and the land are so dry that there is no need for its remaining long in the shuck. The wheat harvest is so forward in the neighbourhood of Salsbury, that it is expected the whole will be carried by the end of next week. The harvest has commenced in the neighbourhood of gham with croi s exceeding, rather thin otherwise, tl e exp c atieus of the tanners. A few persons, speculating on a tell of rain, have not yet cut their hay, in expectation of a b tier crop from such circumstance. Th weather has undergone a very great change as •3 emperatere and moisture —it is rather cold, and there is ecough of rain l—atal, still more surprisirg, hems: is quite general for all kinds of grain ! !—Keiso July. The rain ceased at Edinburgh on Friday evening, and we have since had dry sunny weather, accompanied during the last two Jaye with a great deal of heat. Reaping is tine commenced on al sides of Edinburgh, red will go on with out interruption if the weather permit, for the ripening has been very uniform. We have heard in some rich and warm soils, the farmer would rather have wanted the rain of Thursday and Friday, because it endangered their where err pc, and came tco late to benefit the oats and harhy. Btu the showers have been very serviceable to the grass lands, and in the late soils, which constitute a large pro per tioa of S:otland, they must have done good to the grain crops too. A field of growing oats, consisting of little more than !lithe acres and a half, was sold at Kaddington on Friday last, by public routs, for upwards of 901., being at the rate of more than 213/. an acre. CATHCART, JULY 25.—During the late long-continued drought inatsy things were literally burnt up. 'l'he crops, however, in the fields hereabouts, look well, and wilt the exception of oafs and turnip; will produce a mediter. The potatoes are daily improving. Harvest has generally commenced here. The labouring classes in this parish are in circumstances of extreme poverty, from the want of em ployment, and from the low rate of wages. Colliers, v used to cant from 20s. to 30s. per week, only get three days' work in a fortnight. averaging only G.S. per week. Weavers earn only from red. to is. per day, labourers is. which is only the half of what was formerly given. In the Catse of Guwrie, and in the lower parts of For farshire, harvest, we understand, is already quite general. The barley and oat crops are very inferior, even on the rich and highly cultivated soils. North of Montrose the farmers are in many places ploughing them up, and where best they will hardly pay the expense of the seed. The weather has, during this week, completely changed its temperature, as, from the excessive heat under which we suffered, it has since become uncommonly cold, since Monday in particular, when the wind suddenly shifted to the northward. On Thursday the wind veered to the south-eastward, accompanied with driezling rain, which came to fall very heavy during the night, continuing until yesterday at neon, in great abundance. The thirsty fields must be much benefitted by such a copious rain, the pas ture and s, conch grass crop, in particular, while the grain crop must also be in no small degree improved.—elbeedrea Journal. The. harvest has commenced in the neighbourhood of Darlington, several farmers having cut the Barley and Wheat. The grain is of good quality, and the proGuc: better than was anticipated. The weather has again set in exceedingly warm and dry. We have bright days but dark times. The harvest around us is becorne general, and proceeds rapidly. The wheat crop is every where excellent. Oats and barley, on light dry soils, are exceedingly deficient, and very short in the straw. On wet lands and strong soils, however, the eh ficiency, except in straw, will not be so great. Wages o f shearers yesterday morning at our Cross was ts. ed. per day without victuals. The number engaged was cronsidtr. Branford market was on Thursday perceptibly better than for some weeks past ; more d s were sold, and there was a litee advance of pricC eu scone articles. ~~ 1 i 1 I 11.1 l Eii ffir
