CITY, Two o'Ceocie. The intelligence from the various manufacturing districts this morning represents that during the past week business has not been quite so buoyant ; mast of the menufacturers, however, were fully employed on orders not yet completed. At Man chester, in the absence of any operations of impor tance, the demand for goods suitable for the Indian markets was dull, and the tendency of prices was in favour of buyers. Tarns, however, continue in fair demand, and the orders on hand are large enough to prevent any diminution in values ; in deed, the late nominal reduction in price has been fully recovered. The woollen cloth trade at Leeds has been moderatively active. Increased employ ment has been given to the operatives, and a full average amount of business has been done at full prices for the batter qualities of cloth suitable for the autumn. For the United States there has been a rather active demand, and prices generally rule exceedingly steady. Business at Bradford has been less active, as manu facturers generally are fully engaged completing orders that have been some time on hand. In the worsted trade a little more machinery has been employed, and the working classes generally are getting more employment. The carpet trade at ilalifax is moderately brisk, and most of the mills in the neighbourhood were running full time. At Leicester the hosiery trade has slowly improved, and the demand for the autumn it is expected will be very brisk. Accounts fcom Liverpool report that the Cotton tarket on Saturday closely firmly, and prices of all descriptions were fully maintained. The sales were estimated at 8,000 bales, 1,000 of which were taken by the speculators. The Railway Share Market presented a rather active appearance, and the values of all the leading lines were a shade higher. Too much impor lance seeuis to be attached, par t:etaleily among the speculators at the Steck Ex ehange, to the movements of the bullion in the Bank of England. It is only natural, in the ordi nary course of busiuess, local and continental, that there should be a good deal of fluctuation in the supplies held there. This remark is appli sable at all periods ; but if at one time more than another, it is when the stock of precious metals has accumulated to such an excessive amount as that reported in the recent balance-sheets. In New York, Paris, and in this city, the Banks are gorged with specie, because of the stag nation of trade, and the sudden stand to _which It was brought a few months ago. The rapid augmentation which has taken Place since that momentous crisis, has from time to time been pointed to by the ignorant 46 a subject for congratulation, although, in fact, it has been the result of commercial ad versity. The reaction in the money market ping caused by the same calamity, there just as much reason to feel satisfaction at a rate of discount of 21 per cent. as an increase in the .bullion to a total of nearly 20,000,0001. Those who thus close their eyes to the facts o f the case, their origin and effect, and consider that a favourable feeling should exist in consequence of this plethora, have also been fooli-h enough to manifest uneasi- I leSB at the late impetus which the demand for ac- °Oran:iodation received, and are now desponding on account of the efflux of gold, to the extent of about a million and a quarter sterling. Provided specu lation continued inactive, and no pressure w ere'pre ducedbyan absorption for extraneous purposes, a rise lO the terms of discount, and a diminution of bullion here, and in the other great centres of commerce, would, in reality, be the most encouraging move ment that could occur, because it would be indicative of a revival of business, and a step towards a return of national prosperity. About 210,0001. in Australian gold by the Royal Charter was sent into the Bank on Saturday. The Teviot has arrived with 140,2861. ; the Colombo at 3., fOr the East to-day will take out 54,4401. At the special meeting of the Waterford and ilkenny Railway Company to-day, a resolution Was passed for issuing 149,0001. debentures at 6 Per cent. interest for five years, and at 5 per cent. afterwards. The object of the money was not for the purpose of works on the line, but to liquidate the Government loan of 102,0001. and for the pay bent of the other debts of the company. 'llls day the adjourned meeting of the Bombay, 13erode, and Central India Railway Company took Place at th e L on d on T avern , w h en th e e l ec ti on o f dir ectors was proceeded with, and Mr. Wilde and la r• Raymen were declared successful by a slight Ilatijority on the show of hands. A ballot was de- Mended by Colonel Holland and Mr. Key, the un successful candidates, which the chairman, Colonel kreneb, agreed to, and the result is to be reported la Wednesday neat. When the English Stock Market opened this morning it appeared buoyant, and prices farther 11 „ d ""ed, owing to continued purchases, but a Pause in these operations, succeeded by a little arteculative selling, has since caused a frac tional reaction. The tone of the market, how etrerl must be considered good ; there is a better feeling, transactions are more freely concluded, and confidence is expressed in the course of poli tical affeirs. Consols have been 951 for money, and 954 for account. The latter were at one t ime 95/ buyers, but they are now at former quo. tenons. The New Three per Cents are 96i ; and th e Reduced, 961 s India Debentures are 991 ; a nd March Exchequer Bills 375. prem.

Mr. 13radaeld's meeting will attain a deserved success. The list of sport is promising enough, and it will be suf ficient to attract a largo number of speculators from all parts of the country. My time is so occupied with pre parations for the Goodwood meeting, that I shall ref(r with the utmost brevity to the' probable results. Should Zitella be "all right"—and bar absence from Liverpool justifies the suspicion that there is something amiss— she will will win the Robin Hood Stakes. Messrs. Barber and Saxon's lot has been leniently treated for all the handicaps in this locality. One of their nomina tions I shall couple with Erperance to bring off the Nottinghamshire Stakes. A two-year-old—Artist or Mrs. Stowe —may win the Stand Plate. For the Sher wood Handicap my fancy points to Prince of Orange and Turret. For the Castle Plate I shall select Mas sacre and Trabuco. To-morrow I shall fully refer to Wednesday's events, and will extend my remarks or sport past and present. A FRESH MAN. NAV AL INT ELLMENCE. (This Day). RAILWAYS. Paid j RAILwAis.

He had for the last setayal weeks come home at a late hour of night in:ox,cated, and upon most oc casions brutually ill-treated his unfortunAte wife. He was out the whole of Friday night, and did not come home until Saturday morning, when he furi ously attacked his wife, beating her about the head in the most barbarous manner, and ultimate'y left her on the floor in an ius?n , ib'e and bleeding state, all the occupants dreading to interfere as his con duct was so violent. On the arrival of the police, they sent for Mr. Hopten, surgeon, of Judd-street, who promptly a'tended, but she was subsequently remota d to St. Pancras workhouse in a cab, and attended by Messrs.

The following are the principal passages in the report of the directo.s " The accounts for the half-year ending the 30th June, 1858, show the following results " Capital Account—The amount of capital raised to the 30th June, 1858. ie 7,858,815, consisting of-- Mort eage debt, 1,80(3,835/. ; debenture stock, 168,708/. ; preference capital, 1,234 7261. ; coosolidatod stock, 4,618,5541. ; total, 7,358,815/. The bill promoted by •he conowy, authorising the raising of additional ca pital, haying received the royal assent, the ? outlay re terrecl to in the laet report, as well a 3 teat since in curred, :amounting in all to 34,720/ , has bnaa transferred o the debit of capital account. The directore aro gra tified at being able to announce, as a proof of the con fidence which the public place in this undertaking, that 210,80G1. of the perpetual Four per Cent. Debentare itock has already been taken up, en amount which will no doubt be considerably increased as the ex:sting de bentures fall due ; in the meantime, the mortage debt -emains in a satisfactory state. " Revenue Accounr.—The gross revenue for the ealf•vear has been 344,569/., showing a decrease cf 4 6551.. as compared with the corresponding half-year of 1857, bat an increase of 1,8911., when canpared with tne same period of 1856. 'rue traffic of this com pany, in common with others, has been affected by the pressure of the times ; and it has only been by means of the new accommodation already aff a-del to the public by the opening of the existing West End line to ha foot of the new suspension bridge at Pindico that the revr.r-ae has been maintained in its present paition. Pheec sati4actory results confirm the directors in their vinion that when the West-end route is ccrcpleted to , he Victoria station their expectations will not be disap pointed. The details of expenditure for the half-year are ully given in the subjoined abstracts.

At the same time it is right to observe that a saving has also arisen in consequence of the large corns -xpended in renewals during previous years, of which the proprietors are now deriving the benefit. A new and more correct system of keeping the accounts in the locomotive department was introduced on he Ist fjan, last. The mileage now represents the number of miles actually performed, all additions heretofore made for grunting; standing at stations, or getting up steam hav ing ceased. Oa the other hand, the locomotive account is credited with an allowance for the engines employed exclusively in marshalling trains at the London, New Cross, and Brighton stations, tne amount a f which is placed to the debit of coaching and goods traffic charges respectively ; these items being thereby increased by the sums which appear in the abstracts. Tee necessity ef are celerating the communication by express trains bet ween London and Haitinv has rendered it advisable to re lay a portion of the line between Lewes and B xhill. Toe work has been completed, and the cost placed to the debit of the permanent way improvement acc count; and although the balance of that account hat thus been unexpectedly increased, the proprietors must remember that tlds outlay will not only enable the traffic to be worked with greater efficiency, but will lead to reduced expenditure in repairs, as has already proved to be the case on other portions of the railway which have been so re!aid. Of this balance, 3,000/. has boon placed to the debit of the past half-year's revenue, and a due proportion will be written off in each succeeding half.year. The di rectors refer with great satisfaction to the withdrawal of the bill promoted by the Mid Kent Company for the con struction of a competing line to Croydon, this company agreeing to construct a spur line from Not wood station, of less than half-a-milein lereth, by means of which all the requirements uf the Mid Kent Company will be met, and the public will obtain, in other respects, gnat r facilities and accommodation ; also to the complete suc cess of the bill promoted by this company for constructing the line from Shoreham via Steyning, Henfield, Red West Grinstead, to join the Mid Sussex Reilway near Horsham. Concerning the bill promoted by the Pot ts mow h Railway Company, the contest resulted in the Portsmouth company obtaining the powers both of con struction and of running, but protective clauses were im acted which secure a proper arbitration as to the tol to be paid, ani which exclude the Portsmouth company from the use of the Portsmouth station. It is most gra tifying ta the directors to be able to announce that, the bill for the construction of the Victoria Station and Pim lico Railway has passed both Houses of Parliament, ald is only waiting the royal alsent. Large as the expendi tore way appear, the directors have to hesitation in repeating their conviction that the outlay will prove remunerative, and that the property of the company will thereby obtain additional security, and be placed • on a still firmer basis. The works will he commenced without delay, the Victoria Company being under an engagement to this company that they shall be eompl?ted within two years. A special mettir g will be held jai. mediately alter the ordinary general meeting, at which the direc ors will submit the necessary resolutions for creating the caaital which the company is authorised to raise for the before-mentioned purposes. The not amou. t at the credit of the revenue account is 110,0171., out of which the directors recommend the payment of a divi dend of 21 per cent. for the half-year, amounting to 115,464/ , leaving a balance to the credit cf the current half-year, of 5531.

The British Army in India. By Julius Jeffreys, F.R.S., formerly Staff Surgeon at Cawnisore. Longman. This is a very valuable and interesting work that treats of a subject that concerns the welfare of thousands of our countrymen, and at the present epoch is especially deserving of the attention of those in authority. The care of the health of the soldier in India has always been an imperative duty, but it has not met with the c insideration it deserves. Now, when motives of policy are joined to those of humanity, and when the demand for increased forces reudtrs every man of so much value to Lis country, we may hope that means will be adopted to render the soldier's life in India as harmless and as little wearisonae.as possible. The author of the present work has eviJently thought much on the subject, and combines the knowledge of theoretical principles with the experience of prac tical results. He was formerly a staff-surgeon at Cawnpore, and civil surgeon at Futtegnrh, and having - passed many years in India be has gained a full acquaintance with the injurious effects ef a tropical climate on the European constitution. Hi s remarks are full of sound sense ; he takes into con sideration the difference of the temperament, the mental excitement, the insidious evils which are not less surely destructive than the n.ore apparent 'sunstroke, or fever. He protests very strongly against the opinion that exposure to the sun in India is not so injurious as has been. hitherto be lieved. The apparent exemptoss of the trsops before Delhi has b- en 'aken s..s a prof by many that .t 211 soldiers may be employed throughout the year in the field with no great danger. In opposition to this assert ion,lhe air !tor says that human health, even in India, is to be estimated at more than a season's duration ; and that in the prime of life, without the aid of depressing mental emotions, some time will elapse before the man succumbs to those influences Which may, nevertheless, b 3 ruin ing his health for • life. In some instances ira dividnals are possessed of what the author terms a semi-tropical constitution, and speedily adapt them selves to the climate, and it is, he says, unfor tunate to others when a man 'of influence possesses this' immunity, as he is • too likely to measure the con'titutions of others by his own. The importance of a suitable dress for the climate can scarcely be overated. The author has made ni , uy suggestions and given illustrations of his prop teed uniform, which be himself derived great benefit from. What ever opinions may be entertained of the proposed changes, it is impossible to deny the truth and jus tice of his remarks on the necessity of a speedy alteration in the dress of the Indian wither. It has often been said that we cannot do better than copy the example of the natives, but Mr. Jeffreys brings two forcible arguments again st this suggese tion. Firs., that their seucibility to climatic influ ence is very different from ours, and secondly that they have no knowledge of science, and come quently can only try experiments without any cer tainty of success. The British soldier on duty bas to contend with three fees niore deadly than native troops, the sun above his head, th e groun d beneath his feet, and the surrounding atmosphere. Their different action on the so stern is clearly and ably shown by Mr. Jeffreys, and the best means of defence explained. The principles of the refrac tion of heat, the evaporation of water, the con vection and subterranean ab orption of beat are alt employed by him as beneficial agencies, and made to influence his system of dress end lodging. To the hat he at aches especial importance. "It is posi tively frightful to contemplate the passive spectsc'e of the sun above in Cancer, British skulls belo iv, kird by that tropic, and between them scarce a quarter of an inch of matter, and that the most receptive of radiance, and at the crown only at any distance from the skull, but pressing close against its sides all round. Would that one lied the command of rhetoric and of leisure adequately to depict the cerebral ruin and coustit ttional destruction pac ing on in an army marching in' such shakos and helms ts, and throttled with neck stacks !" In sup port of his theory of the dangers of the china - Ls, ho proves the fallacy of comparing the mortality in a newly arrived corps with its subsequent de crease, and of supposing that the acclimitatiou has made the difference. There are many vigorous men, he says, who are quite unable to stand a tropic d climate, and die at once ; there are many others who aro so wilfully careless, that they soon fall a prey to intemperance and exposure, and there are others naturally feeble who soon become invalided ; and when all the se are sifted out of a regiment, the rate of sickness and death is naturally reduced, " not because the survivors have become climate-proof." The housing of the troops, the ventilation of barracks, the !twat on of the regiments, and especially the employment of the soldiers, are all treated of earnestly and Tem t-cally. The terrible effects of ennui are forcibly -depicted-. "Itis to lie hoped that all aAi-ve ebul litions of the Datives will be quenched by t wo years of chilling defeats, and then will roc mmenca bar rack imprisonment, objeet'ets and hopeless, with its ennui, intemperance, and, at times, even de spair; eyes looking upon nothing ; minds caring for little, and hoping less ; thoughts of home long suppressed." The Indian Government has sup• plied the troops with reading r, oms, but, as the wiitcr justly observe, a largo portion c,f* the sol diers are drawn from the village labourers of Euglaud, to whom purely intellectual recreaticm is not enough. He suggests that they should be en couraged to follow those arts or trades with which they were acquainted in England, and to iestruct some of the native lads in them—a system which would thus be doubly advantageous. The duty of holding out hopeful encouragement to the soldier is also especially dwelt upon ; and all who are ac quainted. with the demoralising effects of a life of moody idleness, without prospect of change, will be glad to see the case so simply and forcibly stated. The appendix treats of some general questions of policy, involving many mixed principles, and varitus considerations ; but there can scarcely be a difference of opinion as to the necessi y of giving the soldier every possible chanceof health and life, and as suggesting much that is useful and pracical this volume is deserving of immediate attention. Notes on the Revolt in the No;fit-Western Provinces of India. By Charles Rakes, Judge of the Sadder Court at Agra. Longman. The author of this work ob,:etve7, with trutl), that in these days any It nest narrat of the Judith history of his day niny hope for the indul gence of the publ'c.

The author having filled a high offie;al position at Agra, and being late civil com missioner with Sir Celin Campbell, has mixed with many men whose names are now eminent in the history of B itish India. Though having no per sonal adventures to relate, he has naturally seen much of the striking and terrible °rents that hay , filled the last year. Having very lttely returned to England, he observed the anxiety felt Ly a large clas of his countrymen to obtain correct information respecting the feelings and conduct of the people of India.

A Long Vacation in Continental Picture Galleries. By tie Rev. T. J. Blake, M.A. Parker. A. series of succinct criticisms on the contents of the Continental Picture Galleries is contained in this volume. All the chief repositories of •rt are visited and described; in fact, the work is an elaborated and refined catalogue. The author's aim and ability are clearly shown in the following passage from the preface Tne aim in publishing these notes has been, to supply to the general traveller in a portlble and cheap form, something a little fuller and fresher than the notices in Murray's "Handbooks," a little less abstruse than Kugler. If the at tie,tic part of Murray bad seemed as good as the wonderfully accurate kforroation on irns, routes, and battle.field4—if the re,tbetio element bad seemed as well provided for as the historical, topogra phical, geological, antiquarian—the present notes would not have been printed. Nor would they, i( Kugler had_ j written in a more popular style, and bad published in a less expensive form. The writer has endeavoured to criticise in no exclu sive spirit ; to appreciate excellence of every kind. At the same time he has wished to see with his own eyes, and to write, Nulling ad dictus j uraro in verba ma gis tri. The first step towards understanding a man, seems 10 be to look at him front his own point of view ; and never to condemn him, because he has not the merits of another. To see no grandeur in Rubens, because his flowing outline has nut the symmetry of Raffs,el, nor hie liberal colour the depth and warmth of Titian —to find fault with Gian Bellini, becaus e be has not the freedom or science of Michael Angeln---t3 despise even the minute reproduction of Gerard Do 4-, because it has none of the energy of Tintoretto—to carp at the dryness or harshness of the Van Eycks, because they have neither the euppieness nor softness of Andrea, the grace of . Cor• reggio, nor the gloW c f Giorgione—to forget the wonder. fal truth of Helhein, because his fac-simile portraits have neither the romance of Titian nor the penetration of Leonardo—to think, in short, little of one man, because he has not the sant of another=-involves in the first place a e)mplete loss of all the enjoyment that a wider range of taste would give, and noreover displays an absolute ignorance of the first principle of all excellence and all originality—do your beet, and dare to ba your self. Pictures of every school and every knd are noticed fredy ; fr , 7;n2 the wish that none might he missed vt bids cGuid be at all worth looking at, rather than that all should he omitted which were not decidedly fine.

Traits and Stories of Ango-Indian Life. By Lientenant•Calunel Addison. Smith, Elder, and Co. We have here a volume of tales and ske'ches, re lating some marvellous adventures and anecdotes of life in the E .st. It is 'not; however, as might be supposed from its title, in any way . connectedvirith the incidents of the late rebellion, though some of the tragedies are scarcely less horrible than those committed by the rebellious sepoys. Many of the sketches have lean previously published, but they are now collected for the first time. The author observes in the preface that to any one who has not been in India some of the anecdotes will ap pear incredible, but that in Calcutta they will be recognised as truths, as every incident he mentions has really occurred. This assertion is necessary, as to the English reader, many of the statements will appear at least exaggerated, but they will delight the lovers of the marvellous and the horrible, be sides providing entertainment, though in a mori limited degree, for the reader who seeks to be amused as well as startled. Practical Through -routes. By an Englishman abroad. Longman. This is a very uscful and intelligible.little work, intended for the benefit of English continental tourists. It is arranged to accompany and connect the tyrant of British travellers, " Murray's Hand books." It is clear and simple in its directions and comprehensive in its scope, giving all neces sary particulars respecting the hotels, tha modes of conveyarres ' the authorised char g es, an d general far es . The usual &tills respecting tha objects of note in the vicinity of the different town?, and all :imilar information is given. It forrns an inva!uable assistant to the perplexed traveller, to whom a journey through the mazes of Brad,haw and Murray is sometimes the most formidable part of his route. On Photography. _By Lake Price. Churchill, - New Burlington-street. This volume professes to be " a manual of pho tographic manipulation," and it offers to the stu dent or amateur phiftographer a clear and concise account of the principles and practice of the art. An introdualry sketch of tie discovery and pro gress of photography gives an interesting account of the various improvements that have been made in the process. Th producing agents, the requi site apparatus, manipulation, the treatment of different subjects, the print'ng processes, and chemicals, are all discus. , ed uuder different head!, and treated of fully and clearly. The practical ar tist as well as the inexperienced amateur may find some useful suggestions in this work. 111U.RDFR IN LIVERPOOL. LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY. Bally this morning, one of those cases unfortu nately beco:ning of too frequent occurrence, took place in the town. Paul-street, near the docks, a most respectable locality, was made this morning the scene of death, an i at least maiming for life, by an American cb•sperado. The fellow, in a drunken brawl, drew the too-ready knife, killed one man out right-, and wounded another most dangerously, They were all under the influence of grog at the time when the de Nis were perpetrated. It is hoped that the llvin4 victim will recover, but ho is badly wounded iu the thigh. SUICIDE OF HUSBAND AND STRPSON. Some time since we gave an account of the death by suicide of a man c tiled Hyde, living at Lindley, near Huddersfield, whose death was, there was good reason to suppose, hastened by the wretched character of his home, superin tended by a second wife. Since that fatal close of his career one of the children, a boy of lf, has fol lowed his unfortunate father's example, and on Wednesday, at the Globe Inn, Lindley, a jury, presided over by G. Dyson, Esq., the coroner, held their inquisition over the body of John Hyde, the youth io question, who on the previous Monday morning was found hanging on the bough of a thorn, in a field near the high road. Three members of the family, a brother and two sisters, wore called in suc cession before the jury, and in the presence of the stepmother gave evidence of the unceasing ill usage which had driven them all away from her house to live in lodgings with kinder relatives or more humane strangers, and now testified to the conduct which had made their poor fithere and brother the victims of despair. Hannah Hyde, a sister, deposed i to having seen the deceased about a we e k sin ce. He said he dark. d not stop to speck to we , as h o would p get lai n t r d as ti l i t a e d t he had n .

He said she was selling the things in the house, and had told him he would not have long to stop with her. Last night the witness went to the house and saw some beddin g on the floor (the brother's bed), but she did not Ole stepmother be . ng there) turn it down. He had to wash his shirt and smock himself, and sometimes on the Sun day morning. When site left him on the day spoken to, he said his 'nether had never given him any thing, not a halfpenny, since his father died. "We cried," she said, "for we were Loth in trouble. I gave hint twopence mysel , ."—Harriet Hyde, the stepmother, was called. She denied having punished rho lad since they had lived at Minh, except by a tap with her hand. She ha 4 spoken rather harshly to himbecause he would net cl , ,an himself. He never hinted at destroying himself. He was very ditty. The shirt the body was found in had been put on on purpose to disgrace her through .the country, a i shirt with linen wris.bands having been taken off. Why he had hung himself was a mystery It o her. The coroner having carefully summed up the evidence, the jury, after a few minutes' consi deration, returned a verdict, "That the deceased had hune himself while depressed in his mind," and added, " That the conduct of the stepmother was very repreherndble in the treatment of the whole of the children." At the request of the jury, the woman ores called in, and the coroner addressed her in grave tee ma of animadversion. He regretted that the law gave no power to punish her, but her punishment, as it was, would be great enough, for her neighbours would all know wh-t had tekeu place, and thet she hod brought it all en herself. When she married her late husband; she took the children to hung up and cars for, and she had driven them all from their home. The father, sad. now the son, had made away with themselves. T ha t a lad should do this when life was buojaittcnamned cheerful, proved that there must hive b o e f e protected cause for it.
