MONEY AR.,KET AID U°MII4ERCITAI* rt‘fI"LLICIEJTCF,. CITY, Two o'CLocx. The advices received to-day from the manufac turing districts state that business during the past week has been quiet but steady. At Birmingham the iron trade has been dull and prices unsettled. The fancy trades of the dis!rict have also been ex ceedingly quiet, and some distress exists among the workpeople. The woollen trade at Leeds continued steady. There had not been many buyers in the market, but the manufacturers were well employed on orders for the autumn and winter. Wools of all descriptions were at firm rates. At Huddersfield no vary large purchases had been made, and most of the buyers in the market com plain of the scarcity of new goods on offer. The various foreign shipping houses had purchased to a fair extent. Business at Bradford bad been in active. The principal spinners, however, were well, engaged and yarns commanded full rates. In piece goods there was very little activity, but a prospect existed of a good autumn and winter demand. The market fur most descriptions of cloths at Manchester has been dull, and prices have slightly given way, India goods being those most affected. At Nottingham and Leicester the lace and hosiery trades continue in a healthy state, and considerable demand fur the home market still prevails. At Sheffield and Wolverhampton the various hardware trades of the districts have been dull, and rather lower terms have boon accepted by manufacturers, and the improvement lately noticed has received a decided check ; the demand for South America and Australia being very limited. Accounts from Liverpool mention that the Colon Market on Saturday presented a heavy ap pearance, but prices were unaltered. The sales were estimated at from 7,000 to 8,000, bales, 1,000 of which were taken by speculators, and 500 by the txporten§. In the Railway- Share Market tllly a limited amount of business was transacted, at slightly reduced prices. Notwithstanding the approaching termination of the month, when a large amount of commercial hills arrive at maturity, and provision for the instal ment of 25 per cent, on the Brazilian loan will have to be made, there is no perceptible increase in the demand for money. Extreme easiness, therefore, prevails. The supply is abundant, and the inquiry being limited, the terms for discount continue low. A comparatively small extent of capital suffices for the p, osectition of trade, while it is conducted on the present moderate Beale. It is shown by the official monthly returns, published on Saturday, that not only are the mer cantile operations of the United Kingdom greatly reduced, but that the use of capital in these transactions is economised through the depreciation of various kinds of produce, &c., as eempared with the eorre.:2,powling period of last Year, 11nis, while the requirements of traders in every branch of business are modified, unusual easiness and abundance must exist, because there are no great financial or joint-stock schem.!s to absorb such an amount as to limit the supplies so materially as to render the market susceptible to the fluctuations of the current demand. Since a change, involving the return of stringency, can trade be produced by an i m p or t an t ex p ans i on o f srlide) and the development of speculative enter prise, there is, consequently, no probability, Judging from present indications, of an immediate alteration in the state of the discount market. Turther parcels of gold, including one of 7,0001. On Saturday, are being added to the bullion in the Bank. The Heather Bell, Captain Harmsworth, with 75 ,792 oz. of gold, or 303,1681., has arrived in the bewns, from Australia, after a passage of 80 days. The next Australian mail will be made up on the 11th proximo. Applications for the unallotted portions of the New Zealand Loan are being received at the Union Bank of Australia. On Saturday 40,000/, was tendered for, and further offers will no doubt be Made to-day. The Ripon, with the remaining portion of the Bombay mail, has arrived. Owing to the steady yield of gold in Cilifornia, Inc.! the regularity of the remittances to Now York, thi) specie held in the banks in that city continues to increase, notwithstanding the renewal of small shipments to Europe. On the 3d inst. the total was 533,830,232. The annual general meeting of the shareholders Of the Australian Mining Company was held to day, when the report of the directors was presented, showing that 500/. more would be required to make mine likely to be profitable. The accounts S howed the assets to be on the 28th Feb., 1858, as follows :—Assets, 2,5101; liabilities, 2,000/. In the colonies the cash in hand was 2051. 4s. 11d. ; and the stores, 5,628/. 7s. 6d. Some discussion took place as to going on or not, when it was sug gested to make a further call of 2s. 6d. per share. The transactions in the English Stock Market to -,clay have not led to a return of buoyancy.

The demand for wheat iu most of the country in4rkets held on Saturday w as ver y i nac ti ve o n rather lower terms. Barley was in f a i r reques t a t f u ll q u otations. Other grain commanded extreme rates; but flour met a slow inquiry. _ _ Throughout the Continent wheat has commanded loss attention, and prices have ruled a shade easier. Spring corn, however, has been somewhat active, both for home use and export. The arrivals of English produce in thc port of London, last week, were very moderate. From abroad we received 12,908 qrs. of wheat, 23,010 barley, 30,500 oats, 740 beans, 1,739 peas, 7,845 linseed, 2,805 rapeseed, 150 Indian corn, 10 sacks and 5,448 barrels of flour. No new English wheat was on sale here to-day; but the arrivals of that grain fresh up, both by land-carriage and sample, was beasonably larg,--the total supply on offer amounting to about 2,500 qrs, chiefly in good saleable con dition. The attendance of millers was by no means nume rous, and the demand for all kinds ruled heavy,at a decline in the quotations of inferior qualities realised on Monday last of is per qr. Somewhat. unfavourable accounts have come to hand from various quarters respecting the new crop.. There was a large supply of foreign wheat on the stands. Even the finest qualities were much neglected, and the value of other kinds ruled in favour of buyers. Floating cargoes of grain commanded very little atten tion. We were heavily supplied with foreign barley, which sold steadily at full p r i ces . N ew E ng li s h b ar l e y, in fair condition, sold at 495. to 425. per quarter. Malt was in fair supply and moderate requeit on former terms. Wilts drSomrst PREFERENCE SHARES. The few English sales in the market were taken at very full pi ices, and foreign parcels remised extreme rates. Both beans and peas moved off steadily, at very full prices. Now white and grey peas wereon sale, in middling condition We had a slow sale for flour, and, in some instances, Frices had a downward tendency. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

Baron Roth-child attended this morning to take bis seat He we' , introduced by Lord J ,hn Rug sell and Mr. J. A. Smith, and advancad to the table to takt the oaths amid t loud cheers. Mr. S. WARREN said—Mr. Sreaker, I the to ord, r. The SPEAKER sail the queßtion of an hon. member taking his seat was a matter of privilege and ought not to be intf-rrup•ed. (Hear, hear.) The Clerk then proceeded to administer the usual oath, but he was interrupted by Baron Rothschild, and tt - ,e clerk advancing to the chair said "The hon. mumber says he entertians conscientious, objections to taking the oaths in the form prescribed." The SPEAKER said the hon. member wid please to Withdraw. Barra Rithechild then withdrew to the space below the bar. Lord J RUSSELL moved the following resolu tion : —"That is appears to the house that Bar,;n Lionel de R a parson professing the Jewish religion, be,ng otherwise ::nti.led to sit and vote in this to. , use, is ureventA from an Q.tting and votirg by his e , ,n , c . entir , u4 objection to take the oath which, by an Ac; of Parda• merit, has been sub.titut. d for the oath of alleg.anee, supremacy, and abjuration in the form therein pre scribed." Mr. J. A. SMITH seconded the motion. Mr. WARREN objected to the resolution, and said he should take the reuse of the house upon it. Mr. Secretary WALPOLE said the resolution was simply the affirmation cf a matter of fact, and he thought it would be a waste of time to divide upon it. No hoa. member could controvert the truth of the resolution. The resoluti , m was then put and carried nem con,. Lord J. RUSSELL then moved ancther resolution, empowering the house, in accordance with the act just passed, to omit from the oath the words "on the true faith of a Christian. Mr. WARREN opposed the resolution, and consi• sidered the Act of Parliament upon which it was founded as inconsistent and discreditable to a Christian Legislature. lie still believed that no one professing the Jewish persuasion ought to be suffered to sit in Par. !lament, and having thus protested against the resc- Intion, he begged to say that he should divide the house upnu it. Lord HOTHAM said he was not previously aware that the question was to be brought forward to-day, but being present in anticipation of other buinev, he felt he had no alternative but to vote against the resolution. Mr. WALPOLE said he considered this to be a religious ratlitr than a political question, and with the opinions he held he could not b, an assenting party to the resolution. At the same time he gave Baron R ;tbschild the highest credit, inasmuch as he had never made any attempt to violate the law. After some further discussioii the house dividi.d. For the resolution Against Mejority The announcement was ieeeived with load cheers. L.zl "fain ltu-;sell and Mr. J. Smith then I,ft, the house, and the inner dcora being thrown open, escorted Baron R , thschild to the bar of the house amidst lent cheers. The bon. member was then conduced by them to the table of the house, and on the Clerk proceeding to swear him, he interrupted him, when the Clerk ad vanc,:d to the clia:r and said,—" The hon, member wishes to be sworn on the 01 , 1 Testament, as most binding nn big conscience." The SPEAKER—Let the hon. member be so sworn. Tee Clerk then handed to the hon. member the 01 t Testament, and administered the oath to him, B aron Rothschild repeating the words in an audible voice, and with his bat off, till be came to the words "so help m y Jehovah," when be put his hat on. Ttie bon. member then signed the parliamentary roll, and was introduced by the Clerk to the Speaker, who shook hands very cordially with him amidst lad cheer,. Mr. Disraeli also shook hands with the hon. member as he passed the right bon. gentleman on his way to his scat on the front Opposition bench below the gangway, and a face seats from Lord John Russell. Sir W. Hayter, and other boo. members, immediately went to the hon. member and congratulated bim on his having taken his seat. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. FURIOUS DRIVING IN HYDE-PART{ AND INJURING A FEDIALR.—Wiliatu Cockerel), a respectable-looking young man, residing at 15 and 16, L,icester•square, was charged with furiously riding in Hyde-park, and with injuring an elderly femal-, named Sarah Mills, who was unable to attend in consequence of the in juries the received. Francis Alfreddook, of 3, Norton-street West, Pim lico, said he was in Hyde-park, on the previous after noon, when he saw the prisoner, who was on horseback in Rotten-row, proceeding at aglow rate in the direction of Hyde-park-corner till he got to the crossing at Albert gate, when be urged his horse into a full gallop, and about 120 yards from the place where he rarteel he knocked dorm an elderly female. The prisoner had held up his hand when only a few yards off, and shout..rd to her, but made no effort to check hie horse. The female tamed her bead and tried to each the railing by running across the road; Wore she could do so the horse caught her and knocked her down. The woman was picked up bleeding from the face, and complaint d of a severe injury to her hip, and the was taken to St. George's Hosuitil, where the still remained. The prisoner, after the female wat knocked down, rode on for about 200 yards, when be wai stopped by two labouring men, and brought back and giren in charge. Ile had tried to slacken his speed previous to being stopped, and he considered that but for the loose manntr in which be held the reins the accident might have been averted. A park constable said be bad seen the surgeon at St. George's Hospital that morning, and he said the female was not out of danger. Mr. Beadon said the surgeon did not say so in the certificate which was sent to him. Ile should, however, order the pi isoner to 'led one surety in the sum of 401. to appear on Wednesday week, to see in the meantime the result of the injuries the female hal r,ceived. SPOR.TING NOTES. GUESSES AECAIT GOODWOOD, B:7 ju.i - ici , -tiAlyalt tit pr::gramme, aud thereby die ribu more t quaily theattraetions, the present anniver sary of the Good wood rneeLing is likely to be as successful , ar the most succ ess f u l of its predecessors. The Stewards Cap will be the leading event of the opening day, and its importation into the Tuesday's list will cau,:e the gathering to be inaugurated with eclat. Where large fields were anticipated, it is now expected that shortcom ings will be discovered en account of a reputed epidemic which has affected more or less all the Northern horses. Still the supply of sport will be enough, and more than enough, tosatisry the greatest racing gourmand. The, recent rains have iawerially hen efitted the course, which, on a peri,otial inspection on Saturday last, I found Ef.) he in the most admirable c.. , nditi ,n. No fewer than 33 items are c , raaine.l in Mr. Masou's and all the proposed and standing engagements are likely to occasion races. The proceeding: will not, as on former occasions, be r,lndered tedious by walks over or encounters between cripples. The Gratwicke Stakes seems like a gift to T-x.philite, who would b e allowed to go over the course alone if the conditions did not proviJo 1001. out cf the stakes for the second. It has been truly remarked that Mayonaise is the beet looking cf the " Teddington's." At Liverpool she ap peared likely to improve, and her 61bs. allowance will enable her to place The Ham Stakes to the banking ac• count of her owner. Merryman's penaty f.:r the Lavant Stakes will not stop him, The Stewards'Cup will bring out the first large fieldof the meeting. The imposts have been distributed with evident care, and the book makers have experienced a difficulty in making a favourite. The Flying Englishman, Lord Clifdeu's " two," and Babylon are as noteworthy as any names on the list. Babylcn must be bad, indeed, if he do not obtain a for ward position. Mr. Ten L'roeck has found Orianela time better than Mimosa's, and there is, perhaps, a chance of sseing the American colours successful during the meeting. The spi.culation on the Stakes has been stopped Fy Roman Candle, who will, it is expected, repeat the Windiscbgratz achievement of 1850. That he has much the beet of the weights is undeniable, and to ignore his claims to support would be preposterous. Still lam not inclined to select him unconditionally for my champion. Ido not believe him to be within many pounds a a good horse, and I shall not be surprised if he figures less brilliantly in the race than in tie mArket. The Rosati bubble basagain burst, and for this I prepared the readers of Vie San early in the past week. The Epsom division is strongly represented by Frigbt, Die “er, and Fut b-d. Tau first mentioned is fresh and well, and looking a' the moderate calibre of the horses likely to comprise the field, I fully expect to see him justify the partiality of his supporters. The Brewer is at best cnly a common plater, and I shall be much disappointed if old Fulbeek do not beat him. He may, however, strigle home into a place. Lifeboat is a good horse, and on paper he cer tainly seems the only redly dangerous antagonist to the favourite. He is sorely 11b. better than Pensioner, with whom, according to the Ascot running, Compromise must finish. Although I unhesitatingly acknowledge the I rmidable pretensions of Roman Candle, yet I fully expect to see him beaten by . all 'Blyth and Tyna 10 p. c.pref. (issd.at 501.) 100 Bris. & Ex. 4 p. c.

From onr grazing district., the receipts of beasts fresh up, to.day, were seasonably good, both as to number and quality. Prime breeds were in steady request, at, com pared with Monday last, extreme rates to a slight ad vance in the quotations. Inferior breeds sold slowly, though at very full prices. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton. shire, we received 1,9'0 short-horns ; from Norfolk, &c., 650 Scots and short-horns ; from other ports of England, 3,000 of various breeds ; from Scotland, 50 Scots ; and from Ireland, 1 tO oxen. The supply of *heap was moderately extensive for the time of year; but their quality was by no means first rate. The mutton trade ruled steady at fully last week's currency. . Lambs—the show of which was moderate —were in fair nquest, at from 5s to Gs per Blbs dearer. About 500 came to hand from Ireland. Prime small calves were in short supply, and steady re quest on rather higher terms. Inferior calves met a slow inquiry at late rates. There was a moderate inquiry for pigs at last week's currency. THAMES. CRUEL ROBBERY —THE EFFECTS of DRUNKENNESS.— Efirtbeth Davis, an elder y woman, was br tight bdure Mr. Yardley, charged with stealing a 51. Bank of England note, and 21. 10s. in gold, the monies of an industrious Irishman, named James Costello. The pro.iecutor said that he lived at No. 4, Ann street, Bromley. He had been at work ever since the 25th of Jute on board the ship Hurricane, in the East India Dock, and on Friday evening the cap.ain of that vessel paid to him 801. 15 , . 6d., the greater portien of which be paid a way to other men who had been at work with him. He then went home and handed 91. 10-. to his wife. The prisoner was the landlady of the h use in which he liVed. Oa Satur day night he was in his room, nearly asleep, and heavy with drink, when he heard his wife accuse the prisoner of robbing her of 71. 10s. There was no one in the house but the prisoner and her daughter, and one of them roust have taken the money. Mrs. Costello, wife of the prosecutor, said that she had a 51. note and two sovereigns and a bait beneath the bed and the mattress in h.r room, on Saturday at eleven o'clock, and went upon an erra• d. The prisoner was then standing at the street door. Oa her return she looked for her money and it was gone. She accused the prisoner of stealing her money, which she denied. At one o'clock in the morning she found the piece of rag in which she had wrapped the money in the water clo, , et. Tne prisoner vehemently protested her innocence of the robbery, and said that Mrs. Costello was drinkinz with several persons on Saturday night, and was unable to manage her infant, and gave it to her (die prisoner) to mind. Mrs. Costello said she was drinking on Saturday night, but was not ,:runk. Mr. Yardley—Did you leave your child with the prisoner Mrs. Costello : I did not, sir. The Prisoner—You did, and I can prove it, A police constable proved that Mrs. Costello was very drunk on Saturday night, acd accused another woman of the robbery. The prisoner was not given into cu-tody until yesterday. - Mr. Yardley suspected the proFecutrix had lost the money in a drunken bout. Here was the wife f a re spectable mechanic entrusted with his hard earnings, and she had lost them or been robbed of the money. He discharged the prisoner. There is still a degree of uncertainty as to whether the session of Parliament is to be closed by the Queen in person, or by commission. The Queen, however, once prorogued Parliament in person in the afternoon, and tie same evening was at the Nore, on board her own yacht, where she passed the night. This was en the occasion of her first visit to Germany.— Court Jounial. Last week, a very neat martle tablet was erected in the char cel of Cottenham church, having upon it . the following inscription :—"ln memory o f John Sher brooke Banks, Major 23d Bengal Native Infantry, Pre visional Chief Commissioner in Oude, who was killed in he discharge of his duty, durine the seige of the Res ” i dency at Lucknow, July 21et, 1857. Aged 45 years. A BRAVE Bor.—A few days ago a child aged . four years, son of Captain Cranner, of the sloop Eliza, of Chichester, fell from the quay et Llanelly into the copper works dock, a distance of at least twenty feet. The little boy rose to the surface , a nd was about going down a second time when a young l ad, belonging to the Gipsy, of S uthampton, named George Green, aged 16, sprang overboard, and brought him safely ashore. The Era states the late Mr. Bartley was present with a friend at a performance of the Christy's Minstrels, when he was suddenly seized with paralysis. B e i ng immediately conveyed home to his house in Woburn aqua, e, he remained speechless till, he died, on Thursday night lot. The only interval of sensibility that b e h a d durieg the time enabled bias to be aware of an i nqu i ry from her Majesty a s to his health. DETENTION of THE INDIAN MAIL.—On Saturday notice was :issued at the chief office, St. Marti n ' s -l e - Grand, that the m ails for Calcutta, Bombay, Madra s , India, and Chin a, to be forwarded v ia Marseilles' were detained, and that a ll letters a nd newspapers would be in time this evening (Monday), the 26th inst. Notice was also issued that the mails fr ern Calcutta and China would arrive in London ori the 28th instant, and from Bombay on the 3rd proximo, and that an additional mail would be forwarded by the Australian mail packet to 33 )wbay on the 12th and 16th proximo. FRIGHT OR LIFEBOAT. For a cockboat I shall select LAODAMIA, of whom I have just received a m , st favourable ace,unt. Tele gram ought to win the Drawing Room Stakes if fit ; and Target may have her number put np for the 300 Sovs. Sweepv,akes, as Queenstown is likely to be an absentee. The Goodwood Deibe miy go to Ethiopian, who ran for the Derby in a condition more suited to a stud horse than to a high mettle.' racer. 131iuk Bonny has only just recovered from an illness which at one time was likely to be fatal. Ido not this k it is probable, therefore, that she will win the Sixth Bentinek Memorial Stakes three years in succession, and thereby obtain the plate, and deprive the sporting com munity of the prospect of having one of the most itnpor • taut handicap races ever known on the turf. I shall de sort the mare, and place my trust in Zuyder Z se. The Seventh Memorial will perhaps came asst La; gton at,d Longrange to be pitted against each other, and I stall expect to hit the mark with Longrange. I know very little about the two-year-olds nominated f.)r the Eighth Memorial, and shall, therefore, merely record my pre sent liking for Heroine of Luck now and Marseillake. The Cup will command scarcely ba4-a-dczan starters, and England, France, and America are likely to be equally represented amongst them. Fisherman's running at Stamford, and the 51bs. worss terms on which he will have to meet Arsenal, compel me to desert his colours. Ventre St. Gris is, I fancy, a bad 'un, and I shall, there fore, place my hopes in ARSENAL. Merryman will beat Cynricus for, the Me!combo Stakes, and North Lincoln will win the Rudon Stakes. On Friday's events I will offer an opinion later in the week. A FRESH MAN. VENTRE ST. GErs.—This horse is included amongst those paid forfeit for the Goodwood Cup in the list pub lished in the Morning Advertiser of this day. This is, however, evidently a printer's error, for no announce ment to the effect that the horse is scratched has, we have ascertained, been mad() to either the Mess's. Weatherby or the rec )gnieed persons to whom such facts are invariably communicated. THE JULY SUPPLEMENT OF RUFF'S GUIDE TO THE TtraF.—This valuable little tut f handbook has been just published by Messrs. Piper, Stephenson, and Spence, of Paternoster-row. Its utility aad correctness are too well known to require notice, but we observe that seve ral important additions have been made to its usual contents. The introduction of the principal steeple chase meetings is a great improvement, and the ex tended list of Darby lots for 1859 is both useful and interesting. The nominations for August have been compiled with much care, and, what enhances the value of the work as a book of reference, pains have been taken to state all the changes of names which have taken place up to the very hour of publication. The volume, like its predecessors of last year, has been compiled with much labour by Mr. Albert Feist - , the intelligent and active tuff reporter to the Loudon daily and evening press.

THE BRITISH MUSEDH.—A report of the keeper of antiquities to the trustees of the British Museum, dater the 7th Jo y, 1858, P hum; the want of accorotnodetio for that department. Jf his premises ba admitted, it followwill that the whole of the sculptures, save no except the Egyp,inn, Assyrian, and Persian (which Insy he accommodated by mere rentrAegemeut) esquire e tirely new buildings, and wish more or less urgency. For these buildings skylights will be indispensable. It is submitted that the ground on the north side of tht Museum (in the event of new buildings being determine, on) is the proper domain of the "natural history" col lections, while the "antiquities" as naturally claim the west. THE CALEDONIAN CANAL.—The works of this canal have been mAitilained its a state of efficiency, and hale .offered from no serious casualties. Tho traffic, however, has never yet realised the anticipations of the projee ore of the canal, and some natural causes are assigned for the fact.

Why should not the Serpentine be cleansed fie m all its impel itre3 in the same way that the Orna mental Water in St. James's Park has recently been purified ? Sir Berijamin Hall, in this mat , ter, sot an example which Isere John. Mennen would do well to follow. There has not been in our recslieetion a more thoroughly auccess'ul im provement wither the metrop o li s than the one whi c h the late Commie,ioner of P f u h b o li g c oo W d o c r o k a s . effected in St. James's Park. All sequences predicted by the advocates of the scheme have actually been obtained, and not one single in convenience of the many foretold IT its opponents has followed from its adoption. There we have a clear, bright a , est. of water, where before there was a truck, muddy compound, reeking with offensive smells. Chi'dree cin play with impunity, and in the very height of the dog-days tee Lon doner may Thai refreshment without a drawback in the beautiful gardsns of St. James's Park. Sir Benjamin Hall too has astredly conve-ted London skating into a pestene which may be indulged in without darner to life. Befere the days cif his se iileship a certain number of vistirus were dr nod every winter in St. James's Park as 'a Matter of course. Ti is annual sacrifice of humsn life was part of Death's metropolitan bill of fare. No one, of course, would have attempted to deny that prima facie it was rather a pity that a certain inumberin Sr.t James'so /s Park, e e o.) shouldy ould be drowned ever ar bet then there were year cautions adopted in ferour of the skating classes. Great boards, inscribed with the word "Danger" in large characters, were stuck up wherever the ice was rotten. Humane Society's men were stationed along the banks for the rescue of the victims. They were armed with instruments Rhich, as it seemed, it would have required the fervent imagination of Dante to conceive as applicable to the limbs and bodies of drowning men. Until Sir B en j am i n Hall's time the bright idea of doing away with the possibility of danger altogether, and of remitting those strange instruments of torture to some mu seum of antiquities fur the edification of our horror stricken posterity, never crossed the official brain. The St. James's water is now pleasant and ref,eih ing in the warm summer afternoons ; it is made shallow enough to be safe in winter. Now, why should not the Serpentine be taken in hand in a similar way ? Here we are about t') scatter millions broadcast for the sake of puri fying the Thames ; why net spa re one th oug ht t o this broad sheet of water which lies weltering in the midst of our favourite park ? In the great heats it stinks so badly—in' the winter seassn it is such a d-a•h-trap to the skaters. Last week a very numerous meeting was held to consider 'this subject. Among the speakers was Dr. Copeland. "In 1845," said ill's gentleman, "I had evi dence in my own practice of persons who were effected by the noxious smells arising from the Serpentine, who did not live near it, but were simply accustomed to walk there morning or even ing. The banks of the Serpentine are frequented by many of the higher classes, and I believe the pallor of the countenance is as much caused by the Serpentine as by the dissipation of the London season." From one grade of seciety let us pass to another which lies at the other extremity of the social scale. It has been ascertained that upon an average 200,000 persons take their evening bath every summer in the Serpentine. Now, we are perfectly aware that the practice of wallowing for a time in mud is highly recommended by many eminent German physicians in cases of confirmed rhsumetism, sciatica, dec. We would, however, remark, in the first place, that in the Serpentine the filth is too much in solution fo • us to expect cura tive effects frstn it iu this direction rand; secondly, that the 200,000 bathers are really desirous of bathing in water, not of soaking in mud. Now, surely these poor persons are deserving of some tle consideration. They can't get to the sea side, they can't even make their way to any part of the Thames where a "header" would not prove iestantly fatal. They are mainly youths of the artisan class, who look forward to their plunge and swim al the great feature of enjoyment in the summer tine e Surely there would be some satisfaction in so purifs erg the Serpentine that it should be a source of health to so many thousand poor persons ? We have said nothing of the danger which arises in consequence of the un certain depth of the present polluted sheet of liquid. Bathers are drowned iu the Serpentine every year, and so are skaters, in even larger proportion than the skaters On the old Se James's water. It is only right to add !hat every year this dirty lake is be coming more and more a source of inconvenience and disease to a noble class of terraces and squares which are rising up at no great distance from its soutbern bank. Now, the cost of effecting th's improvement and of putting the Serpentine in equally good condi tion w i:h the Ornamental Water in St. James's Park would be just 20,0001. !—surely apaltry BUM when we look to the dc pth of the paymaster's pocket, and the iniportance of the °led to be at tained. For this sum the bottom cf that great sheet of filth could be purified, levelled, and covered with concrete, so as to leave an uniform depth of 4 or 5 feet of pure water. The engine rs who havd carried through the works in St. James's Park s) successfully answer for the result in the eas of the dirty Serpentine. Why should it not be done Had Sir Benjamin Hall confirm d in office he would have done if. Why does not Lord John Manners think it worth his while to earn a cheap but well-deserved popularity by conn ;cling his 11kM9 with so great an improvement ? As we sse, the present Commissioner denies the dirt. There is no reason why another Cimmissitner, still wore happy in denial, should not ignore Loudon. Lord John Manners says that lie bas seen little boys " lap up" the water of the serpentine. We say that if the noble Commissiore: will name any particular species of garbage - which exists in the London strets, we will find instances of little boys who are prepared to " gobble it up." Will Lord John Manners himself drink a cool pot of Serpen tine water ? That would be something like a test. We do not believe, if the matter were properly representel to the hou,e, that it would refuse a liberal contribution from the public purse in aid of the outlay. Whatever may be said about the Thames, it is clear enough that the provincial visi tors, their wives, and their children, derive quite as much satisfaction from the Serpentine, and use its banks quite as much for the purpose of recrea tion, as the regular Londoners.—Times.
