AN IMPORTANT DISCUSSION.—The "Times," the "Lancet," and other leading journals have been lately canvassing the social considerations in volved in "the amount of death and disease caused by vice." Some interesting statistics are brought to bear upon the inquiry; but it would greatly add to their value if they in cluded the facts respecting the origin, the ravages, and the prevention of that SPECIAL VICE, which wars more than any other against the welfare of society—destroying the happi ness and d sappointiug - the objects of matrimony, ur•der mining the constitutions, blasting the prospects, embittering (the besettirng and shortening- the lives of its victims, and spreading desola maturity), together desola tion through families. eir T ec h t e ., e a s n s d e n r t e ir c d ov p er a i rt n, icularsrela . ting to tit's great social evil snare with hinexperienced instructionsyo ut youth for rd removingthe curse its privileges o f ~~, Physical Debility, o ' f ‘ ' "SET., le-pRE s * being,a are contained in Dr. LAIIERT'S TION," a Treatise on Nervous and sent post free for 13, or in Mann andvahich the 90th Edition has just been pub'ished by ~0.

Judging front this record, which has just been completed, it is evident that the daily attendances fall much short of those at the Exhibition of 1851: On the other hand, the proceeds arising from the sale of season tickets have even up to the present date been greater upon this occasion then on the last. In 1851 the total number of season tickets sold up to the Bth of July was 25,070, yielding £66,491 5 ; whereas up to the day before yesterday the sale of season tickets was 21,461, yielding £78,838 4s. to the Royal Commissioners. a:Zed - jai; from this the amount flue to the. Horticultural Society en the to the increased five guinea tickets, the Commissioners have still in hand £70,819 45., or n,?arly £5,0110 more already realizt fore season tickets th,it7 had been act received fr..m ti:tt s:ane eourci. in 1851 up to the Bth of July.

The price paid for the refreshment con tractyr e e tendered ti mes greater n t t h h a e n last. in 1851 ; the Illustrated Catalogue alone will this time yield the Commissioners between £5,000 and £6,000 profit; while for the privilege of taking photographs,which was not thought of in '5l, about 1,500 guineas has been paid on this occasion. Front these and other things of the same kind the general exchequer has been reinforced to a much greater extent than in 1851. That there will be a Surplnd is neither expected nor desired ; but that the re ceipts will cover all expenses is now regarded as almost a certainty. One step made towards it is in the consent of the Commissioners, given yesterday, to issue shilling tickets for shilling days, and simi lar day tickets for the half-crown and five-shilling days. This has, we believe, been done in the case of the shilling tickets, in compliance with the wishes of large employers of labour in the country, who wish to distribute them among their workmen, and also for the convenience of many societies who have offered to take large numbers. These tickets are to be sold in packages of 10 and 20 at the building and the various agencies. The decrease of numbers after the two or three days immediately following the opening is attri buted to the general impression abroad, that the whole interior was utterly unfinished, and not worth seeing. This idea which was almost correct on the 2d and 3d of May, is, however, by no means correct now. The English side of the build ing may be practically said to be quite complete, as far as the exhibition of articles goes, and the foreign side is so well advanced that everything will be perfect before the end of this week. Aus tria is open to visitors, and also the Zollverein, Rus sia, Italy, Turkey, &c. The picture galleries have from the outset been crowded—at first, to the in jury of exhibitors in the gallerfes of the main building, but now that the beautiful contents of the latter are known, they, too, are thronged with visitors, and here, as everywhere else, the best things are being rapidly secured by purchasers. It is astonishing what an amount of sales has already been effected, especially on the foreign side, where the prices are legibly affixed to everything. THE SUN, LONDOL!, WEDNESDAY EVENT '414, MAY 14, 1862. ME NAVY. On Monday signal was made from the Formid able, 84, flag-ship of Vice-Admiral Johnstone, Com mander-in• Chief at the Nore, for the whole of the screw gunboats attached to the first division of the Chatham steam reserve to be manned with the utmost despatch, and the vessels and crews propared for inspection. Within an hour after the signal passel round the entire fleet of gunboats had their respective crews ready to receive the Admiral. Shortly after signal was again made, and Admiral Johnstone, accompanied by his Flag•Lieutencnt, proceeded to inspect the several gunboats comprised in the first division, and on returning to the Formid able complimented the several commanders on the rapidity with v. hich the gunboats were manned, and the cleanly and serviceable appearance of the respective crews. The screw steam sloop Chanticleer, 17, Comman der Charles Stirling, with supernumeraries from Portland, arrived yesterday at Plymouth, where she will embark other supernumeraries and return to Portland. The Vesuvius, 6, 970 tons, 2801orse power, paddlewheel steamer, was yesterday ordered to be commissioned and fitted immediately for foreign service. She is to have a complement of 175 officers and men, including 20 gunners and privates of the Royal Marines and Royal Marint Artillery. The screw steam gun-vessel Coquette, 4, from Portsmouth for China, arrived at Plymouth yester. day. It is probable that sbe will go up Hamoaze to have some defects made good. The Lords of the Admiralty have appointed Captain W. R. Mends, C. 8., Royal Navy, to be Director of Transports, and under the new arrange ments the whole of the transport service has been transferred to his charge from the Department of the Controller of Victualling► The new director will communicate with the agents for transports on all details connected with the service. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty ; —Lieut. Richard G. Kinhahan, Lieut. Charles Giffard, Lieut. Grantham Y. R. Rat tray, and Lieut. Charles J. 11. Bliss, to the Forte, additional for disposal ; Lieut. Thomas K. Mac kenzie and Lieutenant Francis S. Clayton, to the Galatea ; John R. Ryan, master, to the Vesuvius ; William H.

LONDON SCOTTISH VOLIINTEERS.—This corps mustered at their head quarters, Adelphi-terrace, last Saturday afternoon, and preceded by their very efficient brass band, marched to Regent's-park, where they were put through a variety of battalion and light infantry movements, under the command of their • adjutant, Captain Page. Lord Eicho was on the ground, and expressed the satisfaction he felt at the very creditable turn out of the regiment as compared with other corps out on that day; but at the same time hoped that members would exert themselves more than they had berry doing, as tow was the period for instruction in field movements. Parades were of little use unles a majority of the regiment attended. Some members of the corps were always present, and these had expressed deep anxiety at the frequent absence from drill of the others, and it was to be hoped that for the credit of Scotland they would endeavour to turn out in still greater force, as the efficiency of the regiment en tirely depended upon the regular attendance of all. It was requested that on Saturday next every mem ber would make a point of attending at head quar ters punctually at half-past 4, as the regiment would that afternoon go to Epsom to be brigaded, with various other metropolitan corps, under the com mand of Col. M'Murdo, and it was expected that on that afternoon they would turn out in great force, and sustain their character for punctuality. 26TH MIDDLESEX (CUSTOAIS) CORPS.—An inte resting and exciting match at 200 yards came off on Tuesday at the butts, Victoria Dock, between Pri vate Orem and W. Oades, Esq., both gaugers in her Majesty's Customs. The number of shots were limited to five, and the score resulted as under— Private Oram, six points ; W. Oades, Esq., four points. The comparatively short score is attribut able to the strong wind that was blowing and other causes, but by the friends of both parties who were present the firing was considered very creditable considering the peculiar circumstances. VOLUNTEER FIELD DAY ON EPSOM DOWNS.—On Saturday next a brigade field day of several volun teer corps will take place on Epsom Downs, under the commend of Col. M'Murdo, C. 8., Inspector General of Volunteers. Four of the principal corps have agreed to take part in it, and it is expected they will be commanded as follows :—lnns of Court, Lieut.-Col. Brewster; Queen's Westminster, two battalions, Cols. Lord Grosvenor and Lord Fitz gerald ; London Scottish, Lieut.-Col. Lord Elcho; and the Ist City of London, Lieut.-Col. Warde. The above will be only the second of a series of field days which will be held this year. bitter; the Government feels and acknowledges it, The conduct of the Cabinet since the unfortunate campaign of 1859 must clearly have proved to all that its policy is a policy of defence, and not of offence. (Loud cheers.) In regard to Venetia, I can only say that it will be defended by the whole country, by the whole empire." (Tremendous cheers.) In reply to another member of the Chamber of Deputies, Count Rechberg said that Austria and Prussia went hand in hand in the question relative to the constitution of Besse-Cassel, but it is asserted that it was Count liarnitzki, the Austrian Minister in Cassel, who advised the Etc - Ttor to insist on the maintenance of the electoral laws of 1860. Frede rick William of Hesse is playing a very dangerous game, and one which may perhaps cost him his crown. Daring the debate, on the 7th inst., Dr. Giskra made a very fierce attack on Baron Bach, the Austrian Ambassador at the Paral Court. The eloquent member for . Brunn denounced the ex- Minister of the Interior as an upholder of a worn out system, and as one of the authors of the ill famed convention with Rome. " The Concordat," said he, "is a ealamity for Austria. It is an offence against common sense, and it has introduced dis union and discord into the empire." Count Hartig censured Giskra for indulging in personalities, but still the House resolved to reduce Baron Bach's salary from 78,435 florins to 68,435 florins. AUSTRALIAN MINING COMPANIES. The following are from Australian Mining Com panies : PORT PHILLIP. The directors hare advices, dated Melbourne, 25th March, from which the following are extracts : —Quartz Crushing.—During the month of Feb ruary the quantity of quartz crushed at this mine was 2,470 tons, which yielded 1,2550 z. of gold, being an average of 10 clefts. 4 grs. per ton. The receipts on Clunes' account were £2,164, and the payments, £1,894, showing a profit of £270. The total outlay per ton of ore crushed was thus 15s. 4d.; the expenditure, however, includes £267 cal cining and delivering quartz, £230 addition to stock of firewood, and £3OO for a steam-engine, amounting together to £797, deducting which the outlay per ton is Bs. 101 d. The quantity of quartz crushed in February shows an increase on the January return, but is rather under the general average ; this is caused mainly by occasional stop pages of the machinery through short supply of quartz. Profit for the month is small, and has been so since November, owing to two causes—viz. extra expenditure and diminished yield, and in both these respects I expect we shall, after this month, show an improvement. Machinery.—This is all in good working order, and the stone-break ing machine has not got to work, and, I trust, will prove a saving on our present calcining process. Clunes Mine.—The main shaft is now down 374 ft. Sinking has been for the present discontinued in consequence of the influx of water. The large pumps are being put down, and it will be a month before sinking can be resumed. A remittance of £l,OOO has been received by this mail. ENGLISH AND AUSTRALIAN COPPER, The directors have received advices, dated Ade laide, March 26. The quantity of coal at K ooringa was 309 tons, and at the Port Works about 55 tons. Four vessels, with 1,446 tons, were discharg ing, and two other ships, with about 1,000 tons more, were expected daily. The number of fur naces at work at Kooringa was four, and at the Port Works four; also one refinery was at work at each place. The whole of the company's operations were procceding satisfactorily, and the horses and mules were doing their work well. 21IE ARMY. To-day the Ist division of the 26th Regiment (Cameronians) are to leave Edinburgh for Alder shott, embarking by steamer for London, and the rest of the regiment will follow in a few days. They are to be replaced by the 2d battalion of the 25th (King's Own Borderers) from Aldershott. Simul taneously the 29th at Aldershott are to exchange with the 76th at Glasgow. The 17th company of Royal Engineers will com plete its rifle training in the course of the present week, after which it will be raised to its proper strength preparatory to proceeding from Chatham to the Curragh Camp, to take the place of one of the companies despatched to Canada. Nearly the whole of the Royal and Indian Engineers at head-quarters, Brompton-barracks, have completed their field-work instruction, with the exception of escalading, which they are to practise, in conjunction with the troops of the line quartered at Chatham garrison, on stated cccasions during the summer. The first operations of the kind for the season took place on Monday last. The Sappers and Miners engaged on the field-works have nearly completed the formation of the double sap in front of St. Mary's Casemate barracks, after which the whole of the present works will be completely demolished, and the ground pre pared for a more extended series of works, which is to be executed by the officers and men during the summer months. Thec ' i arteredtroopshipMiddlesex,l ' l9Otn arrived in the Tham es , f rom C a l cutta, on Mondayos Captain Cammell, belongin g to Messrs. Marshall, evening, disembarked her troops at Government quay, Gravesend, yesterday, when the time-expired men and invalids were immediately forwarded to Chatham garrison. The Royal Artillery troops were forwarded, on landing, to Woolwich, and the men sent home from the Indian regiments will be discharged in London. On arriving at Chatham, ten of the invalids were admitted into Fort Pitt Hospital for treatment. The Middlesex brings home a valuable cargo of rice and indigo, and nume rous passengers. At the date the vessel left Cal cutta, the Champion of the Seas was waiting to embark the headquarters of the Ist battalion 6th Regiment, which was ordered to return to Eng land. The examination, the third this year, of candi dates for direct commissions, before Gen. Knollys, Vice-President, and the other members of the Coun cil of Military Education, commenced on Monday with the customary medical excmination, at the Royal Hospital, Chelsea, and will terminate on Saturday next. Major-General Bloomfield, Inspector-General of the Royal Artillery, has left Lancashire on a tour of inspection in Scotland. The following militia regiments have assembled : The 3d, or Royal Westminster Light Infantry Re giment of Middlesex Militie, 6011 strong, at Turn ham-green, under the command of Colonel Viscount Chelsea; the King's Own (First) Staffordshire Re giment, nearly 900 strong, on Thursday, under the command of Col. the Hon. Wellington P. Talbot ; the 3d Regiment of Staffordshire Rifles, at New castle-under-Lynne, on Thursday, under the com mand of Lieut.-Col. Levett, to the number of 674 men of all ranks ; the *Worcestershire Militia, at Worcester, 950 strong, under the command of Lieut.- Col.

A letter from Vienna, dated May 9th, says that on the 7th inst. Count Rechberg, the Minister for Foreign Affairs, acknowledged to the Chamber of Deputies that the policy of Austria in respect to Italy had been ill-judged. The debate, which was of equal interest and importance, was opened by M. Kuranda, one of the representatives of this city. In substance his speech, which was of great length, was as follows : " We are called on to vote supplies for the Fo • reign Department. If we grant the various sums demanded we shall tacitly express our confidence in the Minister for Foreign Affairs, and it therefore appears desirable that we should previously obtain an insight into his opinions on several matters of importance to the empire. Since the eatablishment of the German Confederation Austria has had four political epochs. Daring the whole of the first epoch—that of Metternich—Austria was the great champion of reaction. She believed that any free movement in Germany would be highly pernicious to her, and she acted accordingly. In the year 1848, when the second epoch began, the different German nations convoked a German Parliament at Frankfort. Notwithstanding the unjust treatment which Germany had received at the hands of Aus tria, her sons were invited to send rt preeentatives to Frankfort. The invitation was accepted, and it was owing to the Austrian members of the Frank fort Parliament that there was not a complete rup ture between their own Government and Germany. When Prince Felix Schwarzenburg took office the third epoch began. The Prince, a very bold and energetic man, played a great game, and won it. His success made him haughty and overbearing, and he was solely intent on increasing the power and influence of Austria abroad. He speedily did away with the constitution of the 4th of March, 1849, and by restoring the absolute system he alienated the friends which Austria had acquired in Germany and elsewhere. The fourth epoch began when his Majesty the Emperor again gave a constitu tion to Austria. There have been very many changes of men at home ; but Austria still has the same representatives -abroad. After such a thorough re - form in the interior of the empire, there ought to be a corresponding reform in the foreign policy of the Government. We must, therefore, ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs whether he has told his agents in Germany that, the Constitution being a reality, they have to act in accordance with it. The next question to be put to the Minister for Foreign Affairs relates to Italy. Had there been no treaties of 1815 there would hardly have been an Italian question. Ever since Austria has been an Italian Power she has been in difficulties. She has been obliged to maintain enormous armies, to have recourse to military interventions, to convoke de spotic congresses at Tropau and Laibach, and en ormously Italymhoeuy rw s evri eto violent to h in net c r r re e rff a e se efforts ti t se h ste to maintain national v iia fr a d n e c b at. her a n The re sults of dosizti Zurich. s rn ul i cih t n s . Our diplomatists displayed their total incompetence at Zurich, for wo should now have no territory in Italy had we not retained possession of the redoubt able Quadrilateral. In my opinion, however, it is no great misfortune that we have lost our so-called Machtstellunq (political position and influence) in Italy—that we Lave ceased to be an Italian Power. Venetia we must hold and defend to the very last! Not in order that we may have power and influ ence in Italy, but because Venetia (the Quadrilate ral) is the bulwark of Austria, Bavaria, and South lo be expected that the gn Affairs should consi nFootret der the Treaty of Zur ich waste paper, but he will A er u n st G ri e a r n m do well to recollect t ha t th ese are not the times for Minisl ln. t e l r t f i o s r a policy of restoration in Italy." When Count Buol was Minister he was in the habit of making use of the pen of M. Kuranda, but as soon as Count Rechbnrg took office all connection between the Foreign Department and the editor of the Ost-Eeutsche Post ceased. It is therefore much to the credit of the Minister f or F ore i gn Aff a i rs that he displayed no irritation while his policy was animadverted on by a man for whom he has a posi tive dislike, if not a strong antipathy. The sub stance of Count Rechberg's reply is as follows: ~ M. Kuranda has touched on matter of extreme delicacy, but I will reply to his questions in as straightforward a way as I, in my y capacity of Minister of the Crown, can venture to do. The Imperial Government is firmly resolved to maintain the union with, and also to uphold the position of, Austria in Germany. (A few cheers from the par tisans of Government.) The diplomatic agents abroad have obeyed the instructions given them, but if they should cease to do so the Imperial Govern ment will know how to bring them to order, and to punish them. M. Kuranda has given the House to understand that the Prusso-French treaty of com merce was a surprise' for the Imperial Govern ment, but it will be seen that we began negotiations on the subject several months ago. When the papers relating to it are publish e d, it w ill a ppear that the rights which Austria acquired by the treaty of 1853 have been strictly upheld. (A few faint cheers.) In respect to Italy, it may be said that the meddling in the internal affairs of that country has been attended with most unpleasant consequences. The fruits of that policy have been GREAT NORTHERN. The directors have received from their superin tendent in Adelaide advices to the 26th of March. He states :—" Captain Morrison having given a detailed report upon the company's mines, it is un necessary for me to go over the same ground, more especially as a report coming from a gentleman pro fessionally acquainted with mining operations, must necessarily have more weight than anything I could say." Captai❑ Morrison's report :—"Mine No. 7 I found the men sinking the present whim shaft, which I find is off the lode, it having taken a turn to the eastward under very great difficulties, the water being so quick that they were only able to work one•-half of the time. I also visited the vari ous sections on the westward side of the property and found them all containing, at a shallow depth and all over the surface, innumerable small bunches of ore, consisting of the green and blue carbonates, but not at all settled. Mines Nos. 9 and 11 I found looking far more favourable and quite a change of ground, it being more settled ; the lode is visible, and can be traced through both sections, containing some very fine specimens of red oxide, and it is here, I think, the body of ore will be found. The Eastern Mines, and also the Mount Chambers Mine, are exactly of the same character as Nos. 9 and 11, and by the erection of an engine and sinking some 40 fathoms or more the result will prove favourable. Mount Stuart Mine.—A very fine and promisinglode, visible on surface, averaging some 7ft to Bft in width ; a shaft has been sunk some 20ft from the lode, so as to strike at the 20 fathoms level, but has been discontinued; in going down they met with some small branches underlay ing east and apparently coming into the main lode in depth. Two Brothers —Very little if any work has been done here; the lode is quite traceable the whole length of the section, showing some very rich stones of ore, but apparently very much pinched and greatly mixed up with iron. Nuccaleena Mine—We are breaking some rich ore in the back of edit level No. 1 ; also in the winze, which is holed to the deep edit level." NORTH RHINE. The advices from the local committee are dated Adelaide, March 26; they state :—"You will see by Captain Barkla's report that the sinking of Cope's engine shaft to the 60 fathom level has been pro ceeded with all possible despatch, and that that depth will be reached by the end of the present month, when he Ns ill at once commence driving north and south at that level, and expects to cut the main lode by the end of April, when we trust such discoveries may be made as may tend to ren der the future prospects of the mine encouraging." steadily, a Light, l_ KAPUN DA. in The directors have advices dated the 26th March, reporting favourably of the operations in The January ores were 292 tons of 14-1 per cent. and 42 average - "oduce , equal to about 42 tons of pure copper, an. the yield for February was estimated at 200 tons of somewhat higher p ercentage than re cently reported.

The directors have a letter from the chairmano: PRICK..., -...4d. STAMPED ...,sd. I t v A hi d tf e o la rd ide sn o d f h th is e p 2 a 4 r t t h y o o f f March.working at th e B urra m i nes ) are t t e t h l e y a t a thell He reports (untilrc e o p m ro e m r et committee working in the Bon Accord, in the locality where they lately suggested a trial ought to be made, and offered to make it—viz., to the west of all the work ings previously executed on that property,—but without their having been long enough so e m. ployed to determine what was the probability o f their ultimate success. The instructions sent to the committee of management at Adelaide by the direc tors in March, to carry out certain other explora tory operations, as recommended by C3ptain on the Bon Accord propevly to the east of nil work ings hitherto executed on the property, had not up to the date of the present despatch been received cr anticipated; but they would be acted upon when received, as they were positive in their terms , tho Ugh the operations contemplated by such in structions were neither very extensive nor expensive. The chairman of the committee states, "I am still of opinion that it is at the lower levels where ore alone will be found if it is in the property (of which I cannot bring myself to believe that there is a doubt). We have hitherto been most unfortunate in our attempts to discover it, but we have had many difficulties and discouragements to contend with, and much of the property is yet unexplored." WHEAL ELLEN. The following is the report of Captain Frisk, dated the 24th of March :—" At the pitch on cop per at Spence's shaft the lode in the back of the 30-fathom level, south of the shaft, varies from 6 inches to 1 foot wide of black oxide and a little mundic; the tributors have weighed off 11 tons of ore, and are getting another parcel ready. An intermedirte level has been driven north of the shaft, at the depth of 26 fathoms, where the lode is six inches wide of black oxide, which has justified our putting four men to drive north at a deeper point, where the lode is larger, eomposed of mundic and spotted throughout with copper. We hope by driving this level to open up productive ground. At surface, the new calcining furnace has been com pleted and set to work, calcining dressed galena and carbonate ores. The blast furnace is being rebuilt." DUN MOUNTAIN. . The directors have the following intelligence from their committee and manager, dated Nelson, New Zealand, March 11:—" The December Eng lish mail has not arrived. Up to the present time about 270 tons chrome ore have been deposited on the wharf, of which about 70 tons are already shipped. The mail steamer leaving for Sydney to morrow will take about 65 tons, and by several other opportunities, including ships on the coast, we shall get away about 700 tons, which will make a considerable inroad upon the 2,000 tons so long waiting transmission. You will observe from the engineer's report that the south-west copper lode still continues encouraging, the ore improving in character as the mining proceeds; but, pending the report expected from Sydney upon the ton sent them by the last mail steamer, we are unable to speak definitely of its actual value. In the mean time you will probably have received the ton of which we advised you in our last, and be yourselves in a position to determine its worth for copper. Our present staff is calculated to bring down about 4,000 tons per annum." BILLETING OF MILITIA NEN ON INNKEEPERS. At the Doncaster Borough Police-court, on Mon day last, before William Chambers (Mayor), Chas. Jackson, and William Sheardown, Esqrs., a case of great importance and interest to licensed victuallers was brought under notice. Mr. Ilawksworth, the landlord of the Black Boy Inn, French-gate (long-established in Doncaster), attended by arrangement, without summons, to answer a charge of refusing to provide certain pri vates of the 3d West York Militia with a hot meal on Thursday last (the day the regiment assembled at Doncaster), contrary to the tenour of the act of Parliament. The facts of the case on the prat of the billeting sergeant were these :—On Thursday last, 20 men were billeted on Mr. Hawksworth, notice having been given him on the preceding day that such a number would be sent to his house. As the men reached the town they were billeted off to the dif ferent inns, and towards the 20 to be provided for by the defendant, six were sent at noon, and the billeting sergeant followed with three others him self. When he reached the inn he saw the six standing at the gate, and they complained to him that the landlady had refused to provide them with the hot meal to which they were entitled. He ac cordingly went to see the landlady, and inquired from her how it was that the meal was not ready. She told him that when the whole of the 20 men came she would comply with the law; and as she declined to find the nine men with something to eat he marched them off to another inn, and under the direction of the colonel of the regiment these proceedings had been taken. Two of the privates corroborated the evidence of the sergeant, and dis tinctly stated that Mrs. Hawksworth refused to furnish them with a hot meal until the whole num ber of men billeted at the house arrived, but who it was stated could not possibly be sent that day owing to the non-arrival of the men. Mr. Wright, in a very able speech for the was h r o o e t defen dant, denied the charge 1n tote, and he contended _ that the act of Parliament never contemplated, and it was never intended, that in nkee p ers should be put to the annoyance and inconv en i e nce of providing at himself. The men were summ o ned to appear at head-quarters at 1 0 o'clock o n t he day in q ues t i on , and if he not the fault of th e innkeepers, nor a circumstance for which they could separ t e y dinners did n for ot d each ac soh militiaman it was as he presented be called upon to suffer. Mrs. Hawksworth was then called. She s t a t e d that when the six men came to her husband's house they were followed immediately after b y t h e billet ing sergeant with three others. F rom some repre sentations made to him by the si x Men h e came to her, to cat them bread just cheese, as as meal g was preparing, and told her that the men must h ave the i r hot d i nner i mm ediately, i mm ediately, and th a t she she must prepare them some beef-steak. She s a id she could not think of doing so, for there wa s • and theira pike() of beef 231bs. in weight then roasting before the fire, and puddings and vegetables boiling,lt would be ready in about half an hour. She complained to him of the inconveni ence of the men coming at different times, but did not refuse in any way. The sergeant said "If you don't get them a beef-steak I'll march them all away," and she replied " Well, then, you must do so," and he accordingly took the nine men elsewhere. The Bench referred to the act of Parliament, and ultimately the defendant was convicted in the low est penalty of £2 and costs, the Mayor dissenting from the decision, believing that there had been some misunderstanding between the sergeant and Mrs. Hawksworth, and Mr. Wright applied for a case for the superior court, which was granted. TA Es ING WINE.—Let every guest help himself and challenge his neighbour to wine; it begets good fel lowship, and avoids the annoyance of awkward servants slopping the wine into your glass. People forget that the good old fashion was abandoned on the Queen coming to the throne, who, as a girl, could not challenge her guests to take wine; and thus it became the fashion to imit ate her Majesty in that which to her was a matter of necessity.

MANCHESTER, May 13.-1 f our market was in active last week through the absence of advices ex pected from America, the news so little anticipated of the fall of New Orleans has not improved the state of things. In cotton at Liverpool the usual official telegram says there is no change, but private telegrams say prices are in favour of the buyer. In this market the effect of the American account is somewhat counteracted by the advices per letter and telegram from India and China. In India, at the date of last advices, they would have acquired the knowledge that there was at length a lessening of exports hence, and the markets had improved. As the accounts from this country of sendings would continue to show the desirable change to which we have adverted, it is anticipated that we may con tinue to hear further improvements, and this belief has led to a more cheerful feeling than was expected We have not had an improvement of business sine last week, but things are no worse, and Manufac turers are still inclined to hold with much firmest:. Many sellers are inclined to treat the news from America lightly, and express an opinion that it will not lead to an increased supply of cotton ; but this is not the opinion of merchants, or, if it is, they do not back their confidence to that effect by opera tions in the cloth market. The impression of some of our shrewdest men of business (some of whom have private agents in Charleston and New Orleans) is that the blockade will be rased on the fall of these ports, and they say there can t only at, be little doubt that if the Mississippi is ope ned many of the planters, who are much pr essed instances for money, will undoubtedly ship all the cot ton they can on the first opportunity. Not o nl y has the Manchester cloth.market been ina nimate to-day, merchants declining to buy (exc e p t, in same cases, to ex p su re p s p si ly n g a pressing in ngWntliannt quantity), but yarns have a l s o been remarkably quiet. There is, however, notwithstanding, little wants, and tan then ces hi n whatever small or no decline in p rices. Spinners are very firm , may be tho prospects in the future of a better sup ply of cotton, there is every probability that prices must ye t go higher before relief comes. The market is much firmer than was • anticipated, though no actual business is doing for any quarter. Messrs. John Slagg and Co., in their report of this day's cloth market, say There is not the slightest change in the k mar et to report since Tuesday last. There are later accounts by telegraph to hand from Bombay and Calcutta, showing a further slight improvement in both markets, but they have not led to any improvement here. On the whole, the market continues exceedingly fiat, but so far there is no disposition to give way in prices." LEEDS, 13T11.—The alight improvement noticed in the woollen cloth trade here last week is main tained, but it has not at all been increased. To-day's markets in the cloth-halls have been steady in tone and price, and quite an average amount of business for a Tuesday's market has been done. The home trade is more lively than of late, and the foreign trade is no worse. The manufacturers of heavy goods are better employed than they were a month ago, but there is still a good deal of both hands and machinery only partially employed. ROCHDALE, 12TH.—This has been a quiet market for flannels. Manufacturers are indisposed to make any abatement from the current prices, or more goods would have been sold and orders g i v en out, as there were buyers present who made offers. Still nearly as much business was done 00 last week. but Fancy flannels command the most a ttention ordinary goods for the rather more is doing in plain et it home market. Yorkshire goods moderatel no stead better sale than of late. Wools k ee p y y Little or nothing has been done in the new clip, and staplers are endeavouring to clear out their ' stocks, which are low, b e f o ie it comes in. sy Then otiho L infhla a lsatevr s T ihtnhde t , : veci l ctits V hsteh E oihigr ` 3 etweihe : e rnotec ß odsfs t tr . o . r t s ehyfte t e S saa l hesria A it, t etne L i x l i P ngi i rh a d g c F e l ut h s a A cro t : fnu e LW . irt A n d teh e h C a u o E eit h i t ) hc a . l ef g a cou N unf t l tll li & rse t e AI l u s3 it violent N e ll3(iriti u : 1 1 11 i u t SY n : lc r fr : sMt being, :) a in all the distinctness n o li f ail ti i.: , lic d was lit up —every object standin g out as nintenso darku ee s the might be compared, ttbwhi associationrmhai g t l l bright t ihg a b h s u t i i n l n d i onidffgjtgi exhibited,y marvellous.
