The advices received this morning from the manufacturing districts represent that considerable improvement has taken place in the demand for most descriptions of goods suitable for the autumn. At Manchester there has been a good inquiry for goods for the Indian, German, and Levant mar 'kets, as well as for the home trade. The de mand for yarns has improved, and prices have ad vanced id. per lb. At Leeds a consider able improvement has taken place in the woollen. trade, and the manufacturers are fully en gaged on tolerably .large orders for the fall trade. In the various cloth halls a large business has been done, and prices are exceedingly firm. At Brad ford the worsted trade is firm, and improved rates are 'current for all qualities. In piece goods a fair amount of business has been done, and foreign orders have been issued to some extent. Prices of all. descriptions of goods continue steady. The Woollen trade of .Huddersfield has been steady, and the manufacturers generally are fully employed, a -moderate amount of orders hay og been received both for home use and for msportation. The lace and hosiery trades at Not tingham and Leicester have continued gradually to improve, both American and home buyers having been in the market. Yarns are at full rates, with au upward tendency. The iron trade of South Staf- Jordshire continues inactive, and prices have ex hibited a downward tendency ; great number of furnaces are out of blast and others only in partial operation. At Birmingham the manufacturing trades of the district are flat. At Sheffield and Wolverhampton the hardware trade of the districts have exhibited little alteration. Accounts from Liverpool report that the Cotton Market on Saturday closed very firmly, and prices of all descriptions were fully maintained. The *sales were estimated at 12,000 bale?, 2,000 of - which were taken by the speculators, and 1,000 by the exporters. The Railway Share Market pre sented a steady appearance, and quotations were without any material alteration. A slight diminution has taken place in the de- Inand for discount, the supply of paper offered for negotiation is smaller, and the market altogether shows that the effect of the payments of the 4th of the month has abated. There is reason to believe that a further movement in this respect Would have occurred had it not been for the ac ,commodation required to arrange the Consol account on the Bth inst. and the Indian Loan instalment on the 9th. As it is, however, the demand is steady and not pressing, while the terms; viz., about 3 per cent., must be regarded as exceedingly reasonable and moderate. While that quotation is maintained in Lombard-street, the Bank will be enabled to se cure a large proportion of discount business, and it is Understood that the applications theca are still very numerous. The engagements of the 4th are alleged to have been well met, and no serious cases of failure are reportel. On Saturday about 70,0001. in go?d was taken from the Bank fur transmisiion to France. The arrivals announced to-day include the Tagus, from Gibraltar, with 5,7331., and the Asia, from America, with 12,4701. in specie. According to the advices received to-day, the latest quotation of exchange at New - York for 60 days' bills drawn upon London, is 1091-, a point that is not likely to lead to any large shipments of gold. The tendency, however, was favourable, 'sad, in the event of a further slight advance, the znovement may become important. A. very small amount of business has been recorded up to this hour in the market for public securi ties,-w-hich still appear dull and heavy. Beyond a few operations presumed to be in connexion with the approaching settlement there is nothing to en liven the market, which will probably remain in the same unsettled condition until the liquidation is completed.

IyIARKET NEWS.—(This Day ) CORN EXCHANGE. The country markets held on Saturday were scantily supplied, which sold steadily, at is to 2s per quarter more money. Barley and oats were the turn dearer, and the value of other articles had an upward tendency. On the Continent the corn trade has assumed more firm ness, and wheat has improved in value is to fully 2s per quarter. Spring corn, too, has sold on higher terms. The arrivals of English produce into the port of London last week were very limited, but the imports from abroad were liberal, viz., 13,576 qrs wheat, 11,734 barley, 31,319 oats, 20 rye, 1,177 beans, 1,570 pees, 4,705 linseed, 2,690 rapeseed, 20 sundry seeds, and 203 sacks of flour. Fresh up to-day, from Kent, about an average-time-of year supply of wheat came to hand; but the receipts from Essex were very limited. The attendance of buyers was on the increase, and there:was a steady, though not to say brisk demand for all kinds of wheat of home produce at an advance in the quotations realised on Monday last of 2s per quarter. At that amount of improvement there were buyers from the country. We were well supported with all kinds of foreign wheat. Good and fine samples sold steadily, at an improvement in value of 2s, and inferior parcels were is per quarter dearer than on this day se'nnight. Floating cargoes of grain were in improved request, at very full prices. Most kinds of barley sold to a fair extent, and the quo tations were well supported. Malt was, likewise, firm, but not dearer. Owing to an export demand, the oat trade was brisk, and prices were is. to 2s. per quarter higher than on Mon day last. The few beans in the market sold readily, at Is. to 2s. per quarter more money. Peas were in good request at ls. to 2s. per quarter ad vance. There was an improved inquiry for flour, and country marks were ls. per 2801bs. dearer. Town made flour ad vanced 35., or to 435. per 2801bs.

Prices, consequently, ruled low. For the time of year the receipts of beasts fresh up from our own grazing dist, jets were moderately good. The condition of the stock, however, was very middling. With the exception of the primast Sects and short-horns being in moderate request at full prices, the beef trade ruled heavy at barely last week's currenties. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, wo received 2,330 Scots and short-horns; from Lincolnshire, 7SO shorthorns; from other parts of England, 200 of 'ca tions kinds; and, froth Scotland, 27 Scots. Owing to the scarcity of grass in the pastures, there was a considerable increase of sheep in but. middling condition. The demand for all kinds was in a depressed state, at a decline in the quotations of from 2d to 4d per 81bs. The top figure for the best Downs was 4s 6d per 81bs. There was a large number of lambs in the market, and the lamb trade was, consequently, heavy, at from 6d to 101 per 81bs beneath last Monday's quotations. The show of English calves was limited, of foreign very extensive, and the veal trade was very inactive, at 2d per 81bs lees money. Pigs—the supply of which was good, sold slowly at former terms.

TIZELLUSSON, APPELLANT, V. ROBARTS, RESPONDENT. This cause was postponed till next session. CRIMINAL COURT.—(This Day.) OLD COURT. The July session of the Central Criminal Court took place this morning before the Lord Mayor, the Re corder, Alderman Finnis, Alderman and Sheriff Allen, Alderman and Sheriff Lawrence, and the Under-Sheriffs, Messrs. Millard and Farker. The calendar contains only the names of 56 prisoners for trial, and the busi ness cf the session is expected to terminate on Wednes day evening. The Recorder, in charging the grand jury, was very brief. The calendar, he congratulated them, was very light, both in number and the nature of the offences, and was not likely to detain them long from their usual occu pations. There was only one offence of any magnitude, acd that was a charge of manslaughter, but the particu lars were not of an aggravated character, and would not cause them much difficulty. The grand jury then retired, and commenced their dutiej by returning a few true bills into court. None of the cases that came before the Court this morning was of sufficient general public interest to jus tify a repot. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) MARLEOROUGET-STREET. WORRYING THE DUCKS IN THE SERPENTINE. Alfred Ramsay Taylor and Joseph Elliot Lawley, both gentlemanly-looking persons, were charged under the following circumstances. John Browning, Hyde Park constable, No. 21, said, that on Saturday evening his attention was called to Taylor, who was on the footpath of the Serpentine near Kensington-gardens bridge. The dog produced was swimming in the water and worrying a brood of duck linge. He asked Taylor three times to call the dog in, but be refused, saying he was doing no harm. He t2ld him be would take him into custody if he did not, wnen he turned round and said "You are a -- fool, my dog has a right there and the ducks have not." Lay ley then came up, having been drinking, and thrust himself between him (Browning) and Taylor. They were both very noisy. A young duckling was brought to him, which, though dead, was still warm, and it belonged to the brood. A gentleman on the bridge said it was disgraceful, and gave him his card. They were throwing in a stick to induce the dog to go in. The accused put several questions to Browning, with the view of allowing that they did not intend to worry the ducks, that there was no proof the dog had killed the duck., and Lawley said he was not drunk. Mr. Beadon—Theo there is less excuse far you. Taylor fined 20s. for worrying the duck'', and Lawley fined 20s. for attempting a rescue. 11011BliAY AT WYLD'S READING -ROOMS. —John Stevens, a respectable looking young man, of fair complexion, was charged with stealing an umbrella and hat on two different occa•ions of his visiting \Vyld's British and Foreign Reading-rooms, Leicester-square. The prisoner, watched by Mr. Wyld, entered the room and took up a paper, but instead of reading it he was noticed to be watching all the persons in the room, and immediately after leaving the propery was missed. On coining again ho was given into custody. The prisoner, who said he did not take the things in tentionally, was remanded for a week. 45,62 53s 6d --5 1,559 8,607 1,076 6,515 ' 511 3d 88 721 4 5 9 4 i i 96i 7 i 96 130 103 sok i 89& i 883 9 3 891 90,1 I 45 6.} 4 89 90 .1 441 5 69 , 701 91i i 2 424 3 30 291 I.V! all 12A all St: 100 6 0 , St. 100 -1 12A all 12i all I 2 105. 1 St. 100 St.lloo St. 100 St. :100 10 1 all 10 all 10 all St. 100 St. 100 St. 100 St.lloo St. Iwo 20 i all St. 1100 20 V I lAustralian 1 10s.

LAW INTELLIGENGE.—(This Day. ) THAMES. Tin Ray. MB. SMITH AGAIN.—TEe Rev. J. C. Smith, the itinerant preacher, better known as Boatswain Smith, who has but very recently recovered from the effects cf a severe accident, appeared at court this morning to answer a charge of ceu,ing an obstruction in We;li-street, Wellcioe-square, where he was holoing forth yesterday morning, to a congregation of IGO persons of the description called " roughs," and c blreltcd up the street, which is a very narriw one. Several persons bad their pockets picked directly the old aegthinaa coniitenckd preaching. Ile was arrested by the police soon atter he had given out his text, and he continued his discourse with his book in his hand, and with a police-constable on each side of him, all the way to the station-house. It is well known that the rz:v, gentleman, who has fr. quently been in custody on a similar charge, and will, in defiance of the police, eelect narrow streets for Lis sermons, has almost iuvaiiably infEcted a sermon on the magistrates of this court when he has been brought before them. Toe last time the rev, gentleman was before Mr. Yardley the magistrate discharged him without hearing any evidence, and disappointed the rev. gentleman, who, however, would have a few words to say before he left the court. Mr. Yardley, on taking his seat in a small room of the establishment, the court being under repair, said the name of the Rev. Mr. Smith, charged with causing an obstruction, was on one of the police-sheets, and asked if he was in custody. Inspector Lund replied in the negative, and said the reverend gentleman seas bailed out. At twelve o'clock the reverand gentleman was. ushered into the temporary court, in which there were only seven persons besides the nia g istra o and el , rk, and Mr. Yardley said, "You are discharged, Mr. Smith. You can go, sir." The Rev. Mr. Smith—l wish to say a few words, The dreadful state of Itatc4ll highway, and the iniquity Mr. Yardley—No, no, Mr. Saiith ; this i 4 no place for preaching. There is a very small congregation. Call the next case. The reverend gentleman was po:itely led out of court and seemed greatly disappointed. He distributed some tracts to the mob in front of the court, addressed a few words to the people and retired. CUBA. AND THE SLAVS TRADE. It appears that the traffic in slaves has tended more to the demoralisation of Africa than perhaps any other cause could possibly have done. It has been the source of nearly all the internal wars that have desolated the African kingdoms—wars more terrible in their consequences than any yetrecorded iu h'story ; for, - independent of thousands being slain, still larger numbers are carried away into bondage the most degrading that human beings were ever subjected to. Men being articles of com merce, captives are reckoned by dollars. Any pretext will serve asp, reason fur making an in cursion into a neighbouring kingdom ; sometimes no pretext is needed. A chief as,embles his forces, and at night surprises some neighbouring villages. These are set on fire, and the alarthed inhabitants, endeavouring to escape, are entrapped and carried away to be sold. Then commences the journey to the sea shore, where the dealer waits ; and what a scene of misery do these journeys present. Lying closely packed, in flat boat 9, exposed to a burning sun, sickness soon comuibuces, death follows, and I those who depart first must be deemed the happiest. For what is the position of the longest livers ? Chained amongst dead and putrid bodies, in con tact with the most loathsome filth, and panting for a draught of water, some still linger on. In the journey from the interior to the coast, it was estimated that five-twelfths of the cap tives died. Accounts have been furnished by British officers who have boarded thews slavers, that they found living teen chainedto putrid corpses. Negroes are generally manacled in couples on board ship, and if ono happen to die the survivor is doomed to a fearful companionship with death. Slavers pur sued by British vessels, and finding themselves iu danger of being captured, have frequently thrown their human cargo overboard to be devoured by the sharks. In a chase of this kind, five hundred negroes were thrown in the w iter, and an English efficer on board the pursuing ship says that these poor creatures were so quickly devoured by the sharks that the river was dyed red with their blood. One fact is certain, that the number of native Africans annually taken from their country has not diminished, and that their transportation is accom panied with increased severity. The 'great slave market is Cuba. With this Spanish settlement it ought not to Le difficult for WI to deal. Spain signed a treaty binding herself to the abolition of the slave trade in tier dominions, and received from England 400,0001. as compensation for any lens she might sustain. It is clearly in the power of England to. enforce the fulfil ment of the treaty. With slavery as it exists in the United States we have not the right of inter ference. There it is a domestic institution. The slaves are born in bondage and are natives c f the country. But in Cuba slaves are not allowed to marry, and every year thousands are. imported. The Spanish Government ostensibly reprobates the slave traffic, but secretly connives at the practice. It is well known that the governor of the island finds in the poll tax paid him on imported slaves one of his chief sources of revenue. The great means we propose for the suppressi on of the slave trade are, first! cloying the market at Cuba by obli g ing Spam to fulfil the condit ions of the treaty. Secondly, by endeavouring to improve the condition of the Africaii at home, and teach ing the chiefs how much more certain is the g ain that might be drawn from the cultivat i on of the soil than what is cbt.lined by the sale of men. Having expressed our stiong indignation at the part played by Spain, we would be unjust to our selves and to the cause we advocate did we neglect to advert to the conduct of Fiance. Enthr the pretence of bringing free labourers froni - Af r i ca she has entered into the slave-trade ; and the terrible z .e rnn a g ua to z i t n h e. e vengeance wreaked by negro slaves upon a F renc h slaver, will, we hope, serve as a i j .vv L t eb i l Gallic nation. —Coiburn's United sn THE LATE ACCIDENT ON THE SOUTH-EASTEBN RAILWAY. —CHILHAM.

It appeared that a person had endeavoured to obtain a situation by means of a false character, in order to do which he had applied at the poet-office; at Aylesford for a letter directed to a person residing in the neighbourhood, which had been given him without proper inquiry being made whether he was authorised to receive it or not. Lord CO LCEIESTER explained that the post•office mentioned by the noble and learned lord was of itself a small village, although letters f.ir a large district were received there, consequently persons applying far their letters at the window received them. But bad it been a large town such a proceeding would not be sanctioned, the directions given to the post-mastery being that no persons but letter-carriers should receive letters Lir delivery. RAILWAY LEGISLATION. Lord R.EDESDALE presented a petition signed by 600 holders of shares in railways, representing 3,000,0001., who complained that altnouh a suns cf money amounting to 300,000,0001. had been invested in railway undertakings in Great Britain, the Government had never laid down a national system of constructing r2.i'ways, and the consevence bad been that the deci sions of the railway committee, had been conflicting and unmrtain, and cans:equent!y a large and useless expendi ture of money, and an encouragement cf acts of aggres sion on the part of "ne railway towards another. The petition prayed their lordships to make some general declaration of prin , iple, by the application of which uuiformi'y of decision would hereafter be obtained.

INDIA. BILL—SELECT CONIMITTEE, Lord JOHN RUSSELL gave notice that on the bringing up of the report on the India 8.1 l he should move the omission of clauses 27 and 23, relating to the secret committee. (Hear, hear.) TRAFFIC THROUGH ST. JAMES'S PARK. Major SIBTHORP asked the First Commissioner of Works whether (in the event of there being no va id oh jeeuon) he would take early steps for promoting the convenience of the public, by permitting private car riages and public cabs, under the same restiictionias are nuw in farce bet ween the Marlborough and Buckingham Palace Gates, to go through St. Jane's-park, and out at the soeth-taptern gate, near Storey's-gate, into the Birdcan. -walk ? e - Lora J. MANNERS said he had no power in t'ce matter. After the decided opinion expraseed by the committee who sat two years since on the sof ject, he thought it would be inexpedient for him to recommend furiler facilities for traffic through the Park. SUPPLY OF GUANO. Mr. SCOTT asked the Secretary of State for the CJlonies whether any recent communication had been received by Ler Majesty's Government en the subject of guano ou the liooria Mooria Islands : and whether there was any objection to lay on the table of the house the papers relatnig thereto, in continuation of those pre sented in August last.

WORTLEY gave notice that on the first sup ply night heshould call attention to the proposed arrange ments for the erection of a monument to the memory cf the late Doke of Wellington. GOVERNMENT OF INDIA (No. 3) BILL. On cruse 33, a postponed clause, Mr. MONSELL called attention to the om ission of the continuance of Ad discombe eolleze as a place for training cadets. Lord STANLEY said the words had been purposely omitted from the bill, because it was thought better to lay down the principle of the bill, and leave the details to be decided on hereafter more at leisure. He ex pressed the opinion of the Government that it was de sirable those who went out as cadets should have served some time in a military college, and he believed Addis. cousbe bad admirably answered the purposes for which it was established. After some remarks from an Bort. MEMBER, The clause, after some amendment, was agi•eed to. Cl ause 35, a new clause, providrs that one tenth of the whole number of persons to be recommended in one year shall be given to the sons of person; who have served in India. After some remarks from Mr. BLACKBURN and Mr. MILNES, Co!. SYKES said the principle involved in the clause bad been often attempted by the East India Director: , , but tae difficulty was of ascertaining who had the best claims, and it h a d i n consequence broken down, and been abandoned by them. There was no necessity for the clause. Tho patronage *night be lift to the council unbiassed and untrammelled iu any manner how they should dispense it. Mr. V. SMITE said this clause would establish here ditary offices, if carried out universally. It would be a good principle to carry out in cases where men had dis tiniutshed themselves, and he suggested an alteration in the clause to that effect. Sir E. C.bbrooko, Sir F. Smith, Sir 11. Itawlinson, and Col Sykes having ncldressed the committee on the clause, Lor - d STANLEY dtAnded its retention in the bill. He apprehended thern would be no difficulty in carrying the clause into effect other than that th e number of dtairving c'aimanta might be greater than the vancancies to be filled up. That was the ca , e in almost every case where patronage had to be dispensed. The way to got over the difficulty had referred to vJas by adopting a limited competi tion in such cases. since be ha i been conneo:ed with Indian affairs he had seen sufficient to be convinced there were a class of Indian dffuers who would look upon this clause as the most valuablaibewaid they could look forward to for their ch.ldren. Sir E. COLEBROOKE suggested the words after served in India "with distinction" .hould be added.

PARLIAMENTARY commitrEE—THlS DAY. The Parliamentary inquiry into the state of the river Thames re-assembled this morning in No.ll cimmittse room, for the purpose of reporting on Mr. G. Gurney's plan aril hearing witnessed. The members present were—Mr. Kendall (chairman), Lord J. Russell, Lord John Manners (First Commissioner of Public Works , Lord Palmerston, Alderman Cubit, Sir J. Yards Buller, Sir J. Shelley, Mr. Tite, Sir B. Hall, Mr. Ackroyd, Hon. Jocelyn Percy, &o. The room was crowded to excess. The first witness called was Mr. Bateman, who said--I am a civil engineer. I have been employed on the water works at Manchester and Glasgow. lam still engaged in improving the Clyde— it is in a very offensive state. Where there is a great quantity of mud on the banks of a river it is important, where such is exposed to the action of the sun, that it should be immediately removed to prevent decomposi tion and effluvia. There are no mud banks on the river Ir well, yet it smells most offensively. There is a sewer in Glasgow which receives the discharge from certain chemical works, which renders the sewage from this par ticular place inodorous, and the sewage coming frJrn thence, on being mixed with other foul sewage, renders it inodorous. I don't know how this is occasioned, but such is the fact. I am, therefore, strongly of opinion, and Dr. Anderson agrees with me, that it is possibly to disinfect sewage by solvents on its progress by precipi tation. By Mr. Acroyd—There are no mud back; in the Irwell in consequence of its being all deep water. The river has been artificially dredged, and the sides walled. Sarno of the sewage, of course, comas back after it has been discharged into it, but more goes out than comes back, or the estuary would be filled up. I hope that it will be possible to deal with the sewers by solvent chemi cal agents in so perfect a manner that the whole of the sewage would be deodorised in its passage through them without leavirg any precipitation. The room was bare ordered to be cleared, and after a short absence the public were admitted. Mr. Lawes was Examined by the Chairman. He said —I have been to Leicester and ermined the sewage works there. Leicester is a large place, and has no means 01 getting rid of the sewage, which is excessively bad, excspt by the process adopted. Chairman—llow far are the works from the town! Witoess—About half a mile. Caairmau—And no ill effects arose to the town Wituasa—None whatever. Cr:airman—What is the process ? Witoesi—The process is to collect the whole of the sewa,,, in a large vat, and then a ll ow Ato subside. The char liquid is then inn off into the river, and the deposit is carted away, and used as manure. C this depo.it got out of the vats? Wituess—By wheelbarrow.s and carts. Chairman— What is your'opiaion of the pracass as a commercial sprcalation ? Wituess—Tho thing has been discussed by the Saciety of A r s, and it was the general opinion that the plan would never pay a 3 a c durnerciat speculation, bscause the deposit was not of suflcient'value to pay for trim* , port to any distance. ellaincan—As far ai the txparinient at Leicester hai gone, you are 01 opliton that it has been succetitfol? Chairman—A , Al that it might be succassfuliy adopted on a larger Foods it, London ? WitneFs—Yes ; I have a scheme which I think would be very successful it adopted. It is to construct two tunnels, and to collect the n hole of the sewage at two receptacles, and then, having deodorised the sewage, to allow the clear to runinto the river, and then pump the dep. sit on to some waste hind. 1 should apply lime to tt.e sewage as it ran into the conduits. Mr. TiTe—How many tons of this solid would have to be barged away each day ? Wltnee.s—About 400 tone. I don't propose to use barges at all. The deposit is rut a solid ; it is a kind of sludgy, about 1 iu v 0 ; and I propose to use a pump, to convey it WI ()ugh pipes ou to some waste land, which I think could bd icund on the South-Western line. Sir B. Uall—What is the space occupied by the werki at Ltici.sier, with its 60,000 iuhabitantb! Witoess—The works are much larger than is neces. Sir B. H.ll—What is the space occupied by the sew agework,_. ? - Witoess—l don't recollect. The place is surrounded by fields. I should think there was more than an acre. Sir B. Hall—Then that space could not be obtaiued in Lzaidon. Your scheme, as I understand it, is to embank the Thames, and within that embankment to conslruct tunnels to convey the sewage to two conduits, and there, aft r deodorisation, to run ff the clear and pump off the sludge to a given point, What is the level of your proposed tunnels ? NVitns—The bottoms below low water mark. Sir B. Hall—Are you sure that your level would be low enough to receive the whole of the outialls of the existing sewers 1 _ Witness—l would rather that the engineer who is in attendance should answer that question. Sir B. liall—Where do you find this waste land you spoke of ? - W►tness—Oa the South-Western line, about 20 miles from Lomlcn. Mr. R. Stephenson—Acc ,rding to your scheme the waste land would have to be bought to xhich your de posit would be carried. Now, what is the use of buying land to convey that to it which is valueless ? Witness—it woolt not be valueless. Waste sandy land could be bought very cheap, and sold, after it had been so manured, at a profit. The Chairman here announced that the committee had been so overwhelmed with plans that they felt it utterly impossible, owing to the shortness of the time previous to the prorogation of Parliament, to do more than merely to inquire into a limited selection. They might not be Lrtunats in that selection, yet he hoped the public would rest assured that the only object of the committee was to arrive at the most satiefactory,rfsult possible. The committee then adjourned. LIAU V 1) 1 S SIIIPi 3 IN --(Ttus Day.) LONDON, July 5. Wind this day at noon, N.W. ; moderate breeze, and cloudy. PLYMOUTH, J uly 3. Wind N.N.
