The accounts received from the various manufac turing districts represent that during tt e past week the demand for su mmer goods has slightly increased, more particularly at Leeds where light fabrics suitable for summer wear have been actively dealt in. The Easter holidays, however, have interfered with the regular course of business. At Halifax, the unseasonable change in the weather has checked the sale of worsted goods ; there has also been a considerable falling off in he sale of piece goods. In wools and yarns there has been very little busi ness transacted, and at the public sale of wools of Messrs. Cheeseborough and Sons the prices realised were fully as high as expected. At Leicester there is little activity to notice in the hosiery trade. A few shipping orders have been given out, but there is a great scarcity of orders for the American, and the demand for home consumption still continues inactive. Business at Not inglaam has been dull, and the chief demand has been for home use. A thorough revival of activity in the lace trade is not anticipated for some time to come. At Birmingham aff►ire in the iron dis tricts have assumed a rather more settled aspect. The demand for the American and East Indian markets, however, continues very inactive. There is little improvement at the iron foundries of the district, and a considerable number of the opera tives still continue out of employment. In the lighter branches rather more activity prevail, but the button trade remains depressed ; and the colliers of the neighbourhood have all returned to their work at the reduced scale of wages. The hardware trades at Wolverhampton con tune very heavy, and the saddlers' ironmongery trade at Walsall has not been in so inactive a state for many years. Business at Manchester has been Very dull, and the advance in prices obtained during the earlier part of the week was entirely lost. In yarns, however, for export there was a fair demand chiefly for the German markets. The home trade in yarns, however, has not been active. The Liverpool Cotton market on Saturdday closed heavily, and prices of all descriptions were without any material alteration. The sales were estimated at 6,000 bales, 1,500 of which were taken by the speculators. In the Railway Share Market there was less animation, and quotations were unchanged. In Lombard-street the demand for money con tinues moderate, and the payment of the April dividends seems to have increased the available supplies for commercial purposes. Every facility, so far as accommodation; is concerned, is offered to the mercantile community ; but while trade in the colonies, the United States, and on the continent re mains so depressed, no improvement can be expected here. The traffic returns from the various railways still denote the extreme inactivity of business, and the same conclusive evidence is afforded in France. As the summer approaches, however, some revival ill ay be experienced, for the news from the India markets is more favourable, while in some of the States of America encouraging symptoms are also manifested. Large supplies of Australian g )1d are coming forward, and some of th_ na are now over due ; these will assist in keeping the money market in an easy state, and insure a large stock of bullion in the Bank vaults. A favourable impression has been caused by the advises received this morning from America, which give the exchange on London at the advanced quce Cation of about 108. This is still about 14 per cent. itgainst England, but as the tendency was upwards, it is concluded that the exports of gold from this country will be limited. Very little business is doing in silver, and the quotations are almost nominal. Bars are ss. 11d. per oz. standard, and ss. per oz. for dollars. In the English Stock Market to-day the transactions have continued on a limited scale, but the prices appear steady in the absence of un faVourable operations. Until the announcement of the Budget no revival of business can be ex pfbc:ted, and in thA meautinle "Mk heavy.

East Indian have improved 1 0s., and Great Western of Canada about ss. Grand Trunk of Canada and Great Indian Penin sula are at steady quotations.

The country markets hell on Saturday were but wed.-- rately supplied with wheat. Most. kinds sold steadily at an imnrovenisnt in value of from is. to 2s. per quarter. Barley realised extreme rates, and other spring corn com manded very full prices. Flour was the turn dearer. There has been rather more firmness in the corn trade generally throughout the continent, and prices have been been fully supported. In the United States very little is doing for export to England. The arrivals of English wheat up to our market last week, coastwise and by land carriage, were limited. The imports from abroad amounted to 5,589 quarters of wheat, 19,481 of barley, 19.433 of oats, 1,030 rye, 1,449 beans, 189 peas, 712 tares, 35 linseed, 465 rapeseed, 184 sundry seeds, and 1,094 sacks of flour. Coastwise, a very moderate supply of English wheat was received up to our market to-day, and the receipts by land carriage were limited. The show of samples was, therefore, very moderate, but nearly the whole of the sup ply came to hand in good saleable condition. The atten dance of town and country millers was on the increase, and we had a steady, though not to say brisk, demand for all kinds of wheat of home produce, at is to 2s per quar ter above the rates current on Monday last. There was an improved feeling in the demand for foreign wheat, the show of which was seasonably good, and prices generally advanced is per qr. compared with this day sen'night. Floating cargoes of grain were in improved request, on rather higher terms. Owing to a large influx of foreign barley, that article was less active. Prices, however, were supported. We had a slow sale for malt, at last week's currency. Very few home-grown oats were on offer, but the sup ply of foreign was good. The oat trade was steady, at fully last week's prices. Beans were in short supply and fair request, at fill quo tations. Wo had a steady sale for peas, at fully lath rates. There was a better feeling in the flour trade, and em], try flour was the turn dearer, CURRENCY PER IS Wiest—Essex k Kent, Red - new 40a to 461 Ditt0........ old —s —8 Ditto, White new 41$ ill Ditt0........ old —I —3 Norfolk and Lin coln, Red, o'd --1 —s Ditto new .. •• .4405 46$ Rye—Old .......• •• •• —I —s New 32s 34s Barley—Grinding ••• .. 26s 30a Milting .•• •• 355 Us Chevalier.... • . 38s 41g Dialt—StffolkandNor- PERIAL MEASURE.

SPORTING NOTES= YORK, The Craven Meeting 104 none of itsi distinguithing •... : _.sracterisiics. From time imtuemori d the proceed ings have been marked by more or les,, duloess, and the 4p ,, rt has never been celebrated for its abundance. People, however, grumbled more than is their wont at the paucity of the racing, but their ill temper and fault finding propensities were perhaps strengthened by the searching east wind which blew great guns throughout the week. Indeed, the sport itself was of peculiar import- ance. Were not two Derby favourites brought out, and was there not a great match for 3,000/. ? Still these in teresting events exercised no in fluence on the company, and no wonder that the hotel proprietors and lodging keepers complained dolefully of the scanty attendance. Indeed, the aristocratic habitues of the heath assembled in smaller number than usual ; and a drearier appearance than that presented by the town last week, I never remember. The Jewish Disabilities Bill seems destined to be thrown out as frequently on the turf as it is in the Upper House. Sydney last year could not carry it through, and Ment more has failed in a similar attempt. The sodden appearance of Toxophilite at Newmarket excited amongst a certain clique as much consternation as a nocturnal ♦isit from a fox would occasion in a hen roost. Knowing that " Tox " was unprepared, Lard Derby wished to save stakes with the Baron, who, however, fancying that the Premier would be disinclired under any circumstances to send his cham pion into the list, refused the offer. At this conduct Lord „Derby took umbrage, and despatched a telegram for "Tux.," sent him to the post, and showed that he could make the Jewish disabilities as great on the turf as they are in the Senate. Almost as much curiosity was evinced to see Eclipse saddled as was displayed at the reporter's "private box," in which the members of the four representatives of the press held a regular levee, and round which jockeys, trainers, and betting men con gregated to sympathise with the members of the Fourth Estate in their banishment. Eclipse won his engage. ment like a racehorse. He disposed of Telegram without an effort, although the spectators were indulged with the semblance of a race when the horses were about half-way up the cords. If Clydesdale be vastly superior to Eclipse, Mr, Howard has indeed strong grounds for the confidence he places in that horse's Two Thousand and Derby Chance. The Claret Stakes brought out Arsenal, Ignoramus, and Kent. The little'un chopped down the big'uns at the hill, and his success disproved the opinion, which many people were inclined to entertain, about the softness of the Robert de Gorham stock, while Ignoramus's defeat strengthened the conviction that the Flying Dutchmans are flyers at two-yr-olds, but " duffers" afterwards. The racing at Catterick has produced a telling effect in the market. The running of Kelpie has brought Mr. Parr's horse to a short price in the betting, whilst the performance of Pelissler was deemed sufficiently satis- tory to bring him into prominent notice. This evening my " Notes" will be under the eye of many voyageurs to York, where the Spring Meeting will commence to-morrow. Indeed, the revels on Knaves mire have already been inaugurated, for, on the ground at the back of the Grand Stand, an admirable steeple chase course has been marked out, and the military steeple-chases will be run over it this day. My busi ness, however, will be solely with the legitimate events. The programme is most attractive, and the handicaps are specimens 'of the art of weighting animals in accordance with their known merits and pretensions. Ten everts will be decided in the two days, and they are likely to bring out more competitors than were seen at Newmarket throughout the entire Craven week. The " per formers " of approved merit, amongst the nominations fir the Z9tland Stakes, are the Dutchman's Daughter, Miss Finch, and Sir Walter Scott, all of whom have incurred a penalty of 2/. each. Tne dark division comprises some animals with whose reputation report has already been busy. May Morning. Queen Char lotte, Black Eagle, and Meg Merrilees have been most talked about, but I shall place my faith in the skittish Miss Finch. The Duke has been freely backed for the Great Northern Handicap, and if his trial be correct he is entitled to the support which he has received. I am, however, sceptical of his ability, and bad as Wor center has proved himself to be, I shall expect him to beat The Dupe at a stone. John Scott is al ways formid able at York, and his stable will be represented by War lock, who surely will take a deal of beating. Bashi Bazouk ran s 5 well last year, that I am compelled to regard his chance with the utmost nartialitv. sanguine expectations of his success ; he is described as "never fitter," and I have fall faith in his pretensions. Although Gammon could have beaten Turret at Liverpool much easier, yet the latter's light weight, and the form which he evidently possesses, will enable him to get home in the front rank. He will be ridden by little Daly, and a more efficient lad could not be placed upon his back. Without, therefore, entering into an elaborate disoussioo of the chance of the other animals likely to go to the post, I shall express my belief in the ability of either The winrer to be Rold for 200 sovs, &a.

Compared with Monday last there was a considerable in crease in the aepply of both English and Scotch beasts, most of which came to hand in good saleable condition. Notwithstanding that the attendance of butchers was tolerably good, the beef trade was in a sluggish state, at a decline in the quotations of 2d per 81bs. The highest figure for the best Scots was 4a 4d per Blhs. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we received 2,450 Scots and abort horns ; from other parts of England 360 of various breeds; from Scotland 300 Soots ; and from Ireland 240 oxen, Ztc. About an average supply of sheep was on offer, and most breeds came to hand in good condition. The mutton trade was by no means brisk ; nevertheless there was a better feeling in it, and, in same instances, prices were 2d per 81bs. higher than on this day se'nnight.

RUFF'S GUIDE TO THE TURF (Piper, Stephenson, and Spence, Paternoster-row).—The spring edition of this work has been for many days before the public,and is now in the hands of every racing man. Extraordinary labour and diligence have been be stowed upon its compilation, and several new fea tures have been introduced into it—the revised rules of betting, and the returns of steeplechases not being the least unimportant, and the general accuracy which distinguishes the work and the manner in which the information is arranged are this result of Mr. Feist's long practical acquaintance with racing affairs, and the requirements of sporting rules. FEIST'S RACING RECORD, a monthly work, is another hand book to which Mr. Feist's name is attached. Dif fering in its characteristics from " R u ff," i t supp li es an amount of neces , ary information arranged in a succinct form, which renders it a book of constant reference for turfiteg. The printer and publisher, Mr. Wright, has got the work up in a manner which reflects the greatest credit upon him. LATEST CITY BETTING—SATURDAY NIGHT.

TRIAL OF SIMON BERNARD—(THIS DAY). The trial of Dr. Simon Bernard for felony, as an ac cehsory before the fact of the murders that took place in Paris on the night of the 14th of January last, when an attempt was made on the life of the Emperor of the French, and for which Orsini and Pierri justly 'mid the penalty of their lives, commenced this morning at the Old Court, Old Bailey, under the Special Commiesie•n issued for that purpose. Great interest has been taken by the English people in this case ever since the pri soner's apprehension, heightened no doubt by the re• cent discussions in Parliament and elsewhere on the Conspiracy to Murder Bill. The absurd rumour some time prevalent that Rudio would be brought ovtr to give evidence on the trial is entirely without founds.- tion. The admission to the Court was by ticket, and before the learned judges took their seats on the benches it was densely crowded. Everything was done within the building by the under-sheriffs that its limited character would admit of that gave the largest amount of ac commodation to the public in the smallest possible space available for that purpose. The arrangements, as on the late Royal British Bank trial, were excellent, and the directions of the under-sheriffs were admirably carried out by Mr. Inspector Mitchell. The prisoner is charged in the calendar in the follow ing terms :—" Simon Bernard, aged 41, surgeon, charged with feloniously inciting, moving and procuring, counselling, &c., one Felice Orsini and others to do and commit certain felonies, to Nit, to kill and murder certain parties at Paris, in the empire of France." He is also detained " for unlawfully conspiring with oae tense ursmi and others feloniously to kill and murder a sovereign prince, to wit, his Imperial Majesty Louis Napoleon, Emperor of the French." There are two other indictments, by which he is charged as a principal with committing the crime of wilful murder in Park, both sets of charges being capital offences. The indict ments proceeded with were those charging the prisoner as an accessory before the fact. Amongst the company were a number of ladies, who were accommodated with seats on the bench and in other parts of the court. There was an unusual num ber of briefless barristers present, many of whose faces were strange to those who regularly attended the t,it tinge at the Central Criminal Court, and they greatly over-crowded the space allotted to the bar. At five minutes past 10 o'clock, Lord Campbell, the Lord Chief Baron, Mr. Justice Erie, Mr. Justice Crowder, the Recorder, the Lord Mayor, Alderman Sir C. Marshall, Alderman Sir F. G. Moon, Bart., Alder man Sa!omens, Alderman Wire, Adertnen Finnic, Hales, Gabriel, and the Sheriffs named in the Commission, entered the Court and took their seats on the bench. The Attorney-General (Sir F. Kelly), Mr. Macaulay, Q.C., Mr. Bodkin, Mr.iWelsby and Mr. Clerk appeared for the prosecution. Mr. Edwin James, Q.C., Mr. Hawkins, Mr. J. Simon, Mr. Sleigh, Mr. Brener alid Mr. Scubell defended the prisoner. The prisoner was then placed at the bar and the in dictment read to him by the Clerk of the Court. At its conclusion the Clerk asked him, " Are you guilty or not guilty." The prisoner —This Court has no jurisdiction to try me on this indictment, and I decline to plead. Lord Campbell—lf you decline to say guilty or not guilty, according to the law of England, it can be en tered for you. Mr. James—rue prisoner takes this course under the advice of his counsel. As counsel for the prisoner, I pray oyer, and claim to have the special csmmission under which the Court sits read. Lord Campbell, after consulting the other learned judges—We are all of opinion that the Court can order the plea of not guilty to be entered, if the prisoner re fuses to plead. Let the plea of not guilty be entered, and let him be asked if he chooses to exercise his pri vilege of being tried by a jury composed half of English men and half of aliens. Th• prisoner —I trust with confidence to a jury of Englishmen, Considerable difficulty was experienced in forming a jury, o,A ing to the number of certificates of illness pro duced on the part of those summoned and non-attend ance of others, and the challenges on the part of the prosecution and the prisoner. Ore juryman named " Samuel Bernard" was challenged by the prosecution. It was 10 minutes to 11 o'clock before the jury was sworn. Mr. James requested that the commission might be read. He had not seen a copy of it. Lord Campbell said this was not the prope► time for the commission to be read. The Attorney-General would now proceed with the case. ➢lr. James hoped his lordship would take a note of his application. Lord Campbell said, no doubt if the application had been made privately it would ha►e been attended to. The case then proceeded. The Attorney-General, in opening the case, said the prisoner was indicted for being an accessory before the fact of certain murders committed in France. Having referred to his birth-place and his profession, the learned Attorn y- General said that for reasons which he need not then refer to the prisoner had sought an asylum in this coun try.t He had resided here many years shielded I: wa _h e constitution • f the country. England ha n d I ' Y cowl protected those who sought refuge in " return that try, but our laws required they should not be violated, cos should conform in nnd that those who came here under such circuenstan subjects. It would to those laws which regulated Britishvi to enable them be his duty to lay before thetamnte question, whether the to solve the deeply in*" now stood before them to be prisoner at the bar, w ho n° tried for his life, gu ilty or not of the seri ous c h arge with which he aP stood- _ tiou o f the Emperor of the F rench, and washslCnnhlihad resulted in a mass of murders of unoffending per~on, w ho had congregated together in the streets of P a ris on the night of the 14th J anuary last. The leirned Attorney-General then referred to the circumstances connected with the attack, the means by which it was accomplished, and said that he charged six persons with this offence. The first was Allsep, who be (the Attor ney-General) regretted to say, with grief and shame, was an Englishman ; Simon Bernard, the prisoner at the bar, who was a Frenchman, enjoying the rights of hospita lity in this country; and Orsini, Fierri, Gomez, and Radio, al! of whom were refueeee, and bad resided f.as some years ;e this colliery. It would be found that the c'eaign of assassinating the Emperor of the French was entertained so early as the 16th Oct. of last year, as would be proved by the evidence. It was about that time the grenades used were ordered in Birmirgbam, and they would be f .und to be a weapon or instrument of death unlike anything known in modern warfare, and were of the most deadly character. In whatever way it fell, it struck one of the missiles, and from its contents (fulminating powder) it exploded, scattering de struction on all around. The result of their use on the night of the 14th January last was the death of eight persons, and the injury of 26 others. The six grenades ordered in Birmingham were manufactured for Allsop between the 16th October and the 23d Nov., 1857, and delivered to Allsop, !who paid for them. The learned counsel having detailed the participation of the various parties named in the plot and the intimacy that existed {between them up to Jan. 14, said that throughout all the proceedings the man of money and resources was Or sini. Bernard, so far as was known, was not a man of -, resources, but on the 26th N ov., the day that the pass• port in the name of Allsop was ise by one of the Con sale, and two days only before Orsini went to Brussels —Orsini presented himself with 435 sovereigns, at the Bank of England, and demanded notes in exchange which were given to him, the number of which were known. After that on the 21 January Bernard changed one of the 20/. notes, so obtained by Orsini, at Speill man's, a money changer in the city, and a second on the 7th of that month at the same place. A third 201. note was found upon Pierri, and the remainder of the notes were found upon Orsini, when he was apprehended. Rudio, who was a man i n d est it u t e circenastances, re siding in Bateman's buildings, was engaged by Bernard to go to Paris, be supplying Rudio's wife with money during his absence; Rudio left about the 9th January, and about the 10th or 11th he presented himself to Pierri and lived with him at the same lodgings in Paris. During the few days intervening between their assem bling in Paris and the night of the attempt, Orsini, Pierri, Rudio, and Gomez were constantly together, and between twelve and half-pas' one o'clock on the 14th three of them, if not the four, were in council, and the same again at five o'cl ck in the afternoon, at Pierri's lodgings. At half-past six o'clock the whole assembled in Orsini's lodgings, and left about that time, Gem,* being seen carrying something heavy in a pocket hand kerchief. About the time of the expected arrival of the Emperor and the Empress at the Opera-house a large concourse of pers ons h a d assem b led, amongst whom was Pierri, who was suspected and apprehended, and on being searched a grenade, filled with fulminating powder, and a five-barrelled revolver were found upon him. After referring to the cxplosion of the three grenades thrown, the loss of life, and the consternation which prevailed, the learned counsel detailed the appre hension of Orsini, Rudio, and Gomez. Intelligence having been received in this country of strong suspicion against the prisoner he was apprehended, and be now stood before them to answer the facts he (the Attorney- General) bad laid before them, which, he contended, completely proved the charge that the prisoner at the bar was a party to the outrage of the 14th of January last, which caused the death of, and seriously injured, so many persons. Grave cusestione of law were, he understood, to be raised; first, whether the prisoner was a subject of this country under the act of Parliament, and whether, if this was a murder, that •he prisoner could be punished under this act. When th, time came he should be prepared to argue the points, and he believed successfully, either then, or, if reserved for the opinion of the whole of the judges. Lord Campbell said that any points of law raised, would be reserved for the censideration,of the 15 judgees and if the prisoner was found guilty judgment would be postponed till then.

The case of Mr. Glover, ex-M.P. for Beverley, WWI resumed this morning, but the jury had not returned their verdict when we went to press. LAW INTELLIGENCE.--(This Day.) SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Pi endergast, Q.C.) DIEN V. DANIELS—SITHA.ORDINLAT CASE—IMPORTANT DECISION. Mr. T. Beard appeared for the defendant, a solicitor's clerk, and endorser of a bill of exchange fur 171. 16s. The case has been adjourned three times to give plaintiff au opportunity of proving that defendant had received notice of clishoncur. Mr. Beard argued that, as plaintiff had not only not given notice to defendant of wshouour, but as he Nl., failed to pr. , ve rresentation, defendant was entitled to a verdict. Mr. Beard quoted several c.ises from sir. Justice Byles on bills of exchange, and he insisted that the learned judge had been explicit enough in the 1,11, wing words bearing directly upon the Present case :—" The consequence, therefore, of us. lect of notice is, that the party to whom it should have lo: en give❑ is discharged from all liability on the bill of exchange." Plaintiff did not appear. A witness desired to give evidence to prove that he had presented the bill, and also notice of dishonour. His Honour said, that as plaintiff did not appear the witness could not give evidence, unless he had been in structed by plaintiff. The witness might have come to prove a must material fact, but plaintiff had not paid the adjournment fees, and consequently the case was not before the Court. Mr. Beard applied for costs, but his Honour demur ring, Mr Beard said he would pay the fees. His Honour said he did not think that could be done. Mr. Beard said it was quite usual. The matter was then agreed to, and the fees being paid, defendant was allowed costs.
