AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The Money Market for the week has closed very quietly, the inquiries being moderate and rates easy. There were no gold operations of importance at the Bank of England yesterday. Atlantic and Great 'Western Railway Debentures are steady at 23 25, and the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds at 21 22. The specie movements during the past week have again been on an extensive scale as regards the imports, which have amounted to about £761,931, including £26,000 from New York by the America, •£13,141 by the City of London, £50,000 by the Queen, and £3,800 by the Teutonia. The Maid of Judah from Sydney has brought £61,168, the Highflyer from Melbourne £145,000, the Shannon from the Brazils £73,895, the Rhone from New Zealand, Australia, and the West Indies and Pacific £367,322, the Nyanza from Alexandria £4,975, and about £16,430 in silver has been received from the Continent. The exports have been confined to shipments to the Continent, principally in silver, through private sources, estimated at about £226,785. The following remittances have been received by Messrs. Baring, Brothers, and Co., on account of the New Granada dividends : From Custom house, Santa Martha, £BOO ; Barranquitto, £4OO ; total, £1,203. The Barranquitta agent writes that there will be no occasion to enter a formal protest in consequence of the non-payment of the sums due to the bondholders, as during the last month the collector of customs has been making payment on account, and he hopes in a few days to receive the balance of what is due to date. The traffic receipts of the East Indian Railway for the week ending 7th of July, 1867, were £32,475 1 3s. sd. ; against £16,292 16s. 7d. of the corres ponding week last year, showing an increase of £16,182 iGs. 10d. Two o'CLocic. A firmer tone has prevailed in the English Stock Market consequent upon the fine weather and the favourable prospects of the harvest.

October ACCIDENT Al CHATHAM DOCKYARD. THIS DAY. (By Electric Telegraph.) CHATHAM, Saturday. _ _ At an early hour this morning the large caisson at the entrance to the fourth dock, in which her Ma jesty's ship Beacon is preparing for sea, suddenly burst without having given any previous indications of weakness. The results were most disastrous, the tide, which was unusually high, rushing into the dock with terrific force, lifting the Beacon completely out of the water, and causing considerable damage to that vessel, which was thrown on he: beam ends and filled with water; one of the screw shafts was broken off, and the other much injured, while the vessel is believed to have sustained other serious in juries. The caisson, which has been in use for upwards of 40 years, was believed to he in sound condition ; and the cause of the accident is inex plicable. Several hundred workmen are employed repairing the damage to the ship and dock. THE WAR WITH PARAGUAY. Official correspondence relating to the hostilities in the River Plate, and the abortive attempt at mediation on the part of the United St a t es, h as b een laid before Parliament. Paraguay has, it is said, a population of no more than 600,000 souls, and since the commencement of the conflict has had no means of obtaining supplies from abroad. In March the invading land forces amounted to about 60,000 men, and the naval fleet comprised 67 vessels, ten of them ironclads, while the forces of President Lopez were believed not to exceed 22,000 men. But so energetic was the defence, that the whole Brazilian fleet was kept at bay for 40 days by a bat tery built on a spit of land at itapiru armed with two 68-pounder guns; and after a campaign of two year s the allies held but about nine square miles of Para guayan territory, a space hardly more than suffi cient to contain (were they laid side by side) the bodies of those who had perished from sickness and wounds during the attempts to gain possession of it. A report on the military operations whi c h was transmitted to the Foreign-office of London i n April states that the allies could not then place in the field more than 32,000 effective men, a fif t h of these being three months' recruits ; the whole number of the troops of Lopez was supposed to be reduced to about 20,000, and they were suffering great privations :—" The women and children are made to work for the army, and some of the former are supposed to have fought by the side of the men, as the bodies of several have been found amon g the heaps of slain. The devotion of the Paraguayans to their leader—whether inspired by love or terror is not very clear—almost surpasses belief. The body of one was recovered who must have been drowned while successfully attaching a torpedo to the screw of a Brazilian ironclad. They have repeatedly been cut down at the very muzzles of the guns which they have been madly endeavouring to drag by main force out of the embrasures. It is, how ever, confidently asserted that they have never been able to withstand ,in the open field the bayonet charges of the Brazilian infantry, and that of late they have shown signs of discouragement. The Brazilian troops of whom fully one half are negroes, and the greater part of the remainder mulattoes or Indians, appear to be in a very efficient state. Although great attention is paid to their drill it is said that, in spite of their individual bravery, which cannot be called in question, when under fire they lose the steadiness which characterises Europeantroops,and sometime become unmanageable. Each soldier is provided with three complete suits of uniform made of good serviceable material. When in heavy march ing order the weight carried by the rank and file, including 60 rounds of ball cartridge, has been reduced from 521 b. to 401 b. With the exception of one battalion, lately supplied with needle guns, the troops are all armed with Minie • rifles of a large bore, but the grooves of many of these seem to be much worn by constant use. The cavalry are principally armed with lances ; a certain number, however; in each corps carry car bines instead of lances. The men have the reputa tion of being splendid horsemen, and all use both the lasso' and the bolas.' Since the Field-Mar shal has assumed the command the utmost order and cleanliness are to be found in the Brazilian camps. The officers live in huts and the men in small can vas tents, which hold two in each. The latter are a little larger than the French tentes d'abri,' and afford but little protection either from the sun or rain. The great amount of sickness prevalent among the Brazilians may in a great measure be attributed to the use of these tents, as the Argentines, who are both ill fed and poorly clad, but live in huts, are far healthier than their allies." In May the Go vernment journal of Buenos Ayres, had an account of the capture of a Paraguayan picket of soldiers, three of whom were only 13, 12, and 11 years of age, and they stated that the whole force was under 12,000, and three battalions were made up of boys and one of old men, and that provisions were scarce and ammunition running out. The name " Repub lic- is adopted in Paraguay, but the Government of that fine country is one of pure despotism, with au espionage extended to all classes ; yet there is a real devotion to the service of Lopez, which is said on all sides to be beyond the powers of belief of those who have not witnessed it. Mr. Lettsoin, reporting to Lord Stanley from Montevideo on the 29th of May, writes :—" I cannot but hope that ere long the voice of some strong and disinterested Power will make itself heard in a manner which will at once put an end to this desolating war, and secure for the peo ple of Paraguay more freedom than they have hitherto enjoyed, and to which boon they have proved themselves to be fully entitled. Writing again on the 29th June Mr. Letts= says :—" What the result of the war will be I do not pretend to predict ; but it seems probable that Paraguay will succumb from exhaustion." LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKE7—This Day. The Market opens very flat. Sales probably 7,000 bales. THREE MEN KILLED.-011 Thursday evening a lamentable accident occurred at Pembroke dcckyard. Some men were engaged in testing a crane, and during the ope ration the crane gave way ; the result was that three o 1 the men lost their lives, and two others were badly in.

Bennett. It appeared that the complainant had been in the service of Lady Frankfort about three weeks only. On Wednesday, the 21st inst., her mistress called her many foul names, and afterwards ordered her to take the tea kettle downstairs. Just as complainant began to descend the stairs Lady Frankfurt called out to her to take down a pillow which had been vomited upon by a dog. Before the girl had time to pick the pillow up the lady threw it at her, the vomit flying in her face. The magistrates consi dered the assault proved, and fined the Viscountess Frank fort de Montmorency 40s. and costs, or two months' im prisonment is default of payment. The flue was paid. PROVINCIAL FINANCE.—The Birmingham Small arms Company have issued a report announcing a dividend at tile rate of 20 per cent. per annum. 101 2 881 8 POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. DRUGGING AND ROBBING A FEMALE IN THE S TREETS. Caroline Jones, a female about 30 years of age, was charged before Mr. Knox with stealing a bonnet and several articles of wearing apparel from the person of a young woman named Alice Green. Police-constable Thomas Hand, 5f E, said that about 2 o'clock that morning ho was on duty in Fitzroy-street, Fitzroy-square, when ho saw the prisoner standing by a young woman who was lying on the step of the house of Mr. Kelly, 25, Fitzroy-street. Ile walked across the street, and as soon as he did so the prisoner made off, having a large bundle with her. Finding the female lying on the steps in a state of insensibility he went after the prisoner and brought her back, when he found that she had all but stripped the other female. The young woman was then taken to tho Middlesex Hospital, where the surgeon stated that she had been drugged, and subsequently she WaN taken to the Pancras Workhouse andplaced in the infir mary, and the doctor stated that she was not iu a fit con dition ti attend the court at present. Mr. Knox said the prisoner would be remanded till the young woman could attend. ROBBERY AT A PICTURE GALLERY. —Charles 3.l.'Grady, alias "Fiddle," John Taylor, alias " Curley," and Sarah Howe, were charged before Mr. Knox with stealing au oil painting of the value of £2O, the property of Mr. Fitz patrick, picture-dealer, Pall-mall. . _ The evidence showed that the picture having boon pledged at Mr. Harrison's, Wardour-street, by Howe, and a description afterwards being soon, by Mr. Harrison's assistant, of the picture in the "Police List," he communi cated with Sergeant Hagen, of the C division, who wont to Howe's lodgings in St. Ann's-court, Werdour-street, and asked her about the picture, but she denied all•know ledge of it. Sergeant Hagen took Howe to Mr. Harrison's, where she was at once identified as the person pledging the picture, and she then stated that she had pledged it for two men she knew as "Fiddle" and "Curley," and that she was to have 2s. for her trouble. Sergeant Hagen then took her to the station, and went to Windmill-street and made inquiries for the male prisoners, and afterwards thinking it probable that they would go in consequence of inquiries being made for them to Howe to warn her what to say, he went to Howe's lodgings, and after wait ing there for some time the male prisoners, as ho expected, arrived, and he then took thorn into custody. 2tl 'Grady said he knew nothing of the picture, and Taylor said he stole it. Sergeant Hagen said he believed both the male prisoners had been several times convicted. Mr. Knox committed the prisoners for trial. - WESTMINSTER. EXTRAORDINARY, IF TRUE.—Mr. Selfe, addressing In spector Rolls, of the B division, said that he wished to speak to him about the disposal of some money, found by a constable upon a prisoner. He had an application from a poor woman named Dwyer, stating that her son was charged with stealing a pair of boots, and after his con ♦iction at the Westminster Sessions she had applied to the police for some money found upon him, and was unable to get it. Inspector Rolls said that ho had made somo inquiries into tha matter, and had been informed that the money had been ordered to be given to the prosecutor by tho judge before whom the case had been ttied. Mr. Selfo said ho could not possibly understand that. The prosecutor only complained of being robbed of a pair of boots, and therefore it was extraordinary that money, which he had not lost, should b o g i ven t o him. Inspector Rolls said ho had understood that the judge had ordered the money to be given to the prosecutor as well as the boots, because the latter had been dirtied to make them look second-hand instead of new. Mr. Selfe thought it very unlikely. Mrs. Dwyer here stepped forward, and said that the inspector's account was untrue. Tho money, which amounted to 3s. 4d., belonged to her, and after her son's conviction ho told the court it was his mother's, and the judge ordered that it should be restored to her, but she found she was unable to get it, and had therefore applied to the magistrate. She was a very poor woman, and wanted her money. Mr. Selfe said he bad no power to help her. Inspector Rolls observed that ho would send a sergeant, down to tho Sessions to make full inquiries into the matter. THAMES. SINGULAR DISCOVERY 01P A ROBBERY O.N TOWER-ItILL.— Michael Burke, a well-known and active thief, aged 29, was charged with stealing 3s. in silver and ls. in ponce and halfpen.,o, from the person of Air. G. Liddlo, a traveller i❑ the wine and spirit trade. Yesterday afternoon, at half-past 3 o'clock, and while a boat-race was going ou upon the river, a police-constable named Joseph Marriott, N0..171 11, was peeping through a rifle hole in the eastern gate of the Tower of London, and saw the prisoner among the mob collected on Tower. hill in the act of rifling the pockets of the prosecutor, who was the worse fur liquor. The prisoner put his hands into all Mr. Liddlo's pockets, except the left-hand trousers pocket, and took from them all the money he Lad. Marrio t loft his hiding place; and immediately seized tho pri soner, • who had Some money in both hands. Mar riott had hold of one hand, which contained two threepenny pieces and a penny. The prisoner at the same time threw away the money in his other and tripped up the constable. Marriott was soon on his feet again, pursued the prisoner, and caught him. The prisoner throw the constable again, and several disorderly ruffians attempted to rescue the prisoner. A sentinel on duty at the Tower Gates came to the assistance of the constable, presented his bayonet, and threatened to run it through his body if he made any further resistance. The prisoner then submitted. The Prisoner—How large was the hole in the gate of the Tower ? Marriott—Large enough to see you rob the prosecutor. (A laugh.) Mr. !Addle said he was robbed of 45., and saw the con• stable seize a man alongside of him. Ile had liquor. The Prisoner—How much ? Mr. Liddlo—l don't know. Tho prisoner was committed for trial. ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION. On Thursday George Spendlove, alias Needham, a youth of 15 or 16, was brought before the Belper bench of magistrates on a charge of attempting to shoot Mary Titterton, an aged female, who has been for some time housekeeper to the Rev. L. Lloyd, of Belper. The offence took place on Sunday morning, missing. His me ans of subsistence having become since which ti me th e pr i soner h a s been e A x u h g a u us st te l d l , , the prisoner returned home in a wretched, half-starved condition, and was given up to the police by his parents. The particulars of the case will be gathered from the following evidence : Mary Titterton said—l am housekeeper to Rev. L. Lloyd, and ani 61 years of age. Prisoner de livered milk at o ur h ouse daily. He was servant to Mr. Cooper, Dail y F arm. On Sunday morning prisoner brought the milk as usual, and I had asked him for an extra pint. I was standing near the table, when the prisoner drew a pistol from his pocket. I said, "Oh, dear, what are you doing with that ?" It was then pointed towards the window, the dresser being under the window. He made no answer, but turned round, pointed the pistol at my left side and fired it. I said, "1 au, shot." He muttered something to me, but I could not understand what it was. I afterwards went into a neighbour's house, and a surgeon was sent for. My stays were thickly wadded with cotton where the shot went through. By Mr. Leech (who 'appeared for the prisoner) —Prisoner and I were on friendly terms, and I thought him a well-behaved lad. John Mather— On Sunday morning, August 11, about twenty minutes past nine o'clock, I heard a shot fired, and heard some one cry out, lam shot." I went to Mr. Lloyd's door, and saw Mrs. Tatterton coming outside: I laid hold of her, and assisted her into my mother's house. I came out of the house again, and m e t pr i soner in the tellghat the master." I then went to my the had b een up t o , and he re pmiddle of the road with a milk can i n his hand. I l asked i him wt and sent my s ervant for Mr. Evans, re plied, house, " n' surgeon. Directly afterwards I saw Mr. Cooper, prisoner's master, and told him what had occurred. I subsequently communicated with the police. Prisoner walked to the street, and I said to him, " Of right I ought to take you into custody," but he made no reply. Mr. Johnson, surgeon, Belper, said —I was fetched to Mrs. Titterton, who said she had been shot. I examined her body, and found on the left arm, ex tending from the wrist to the elbow, a blackened appearance of the skin, which was perforated with powder. She complained of the left side. I exa mined her and found five distinct slight erasions of the skin, the place being inflamed and blackened. I examined her stays, and the marks I found upon them would correspond with the marks I saw on her side. The shot-corns were all removed before I got there. Sarah Wardle, assistant to Mr. Brown, draper, Kiug-street, Belper, said On Sunday morning, August 11, about 25 minutes past 9 o'clock, pri soner left milk at the house, and I saw him put something under the mat. After he was gone I !ifted np the mat and found a pistol concealed wider it. I afterwards examined the mat, and the pistol was gone. By Mr. Leech—l did not notice anything re markable in his manner or appearance. Mr. W. Cantrell, druggist, Belper, proved that he sold the prisoner a pistol on the Bth Aug. last for Is. Gd. On the following Saturday evening (the 10th) he sold him the ponder, caps, arid a few shots. He had two pennyworth of No. 9 shot. Sarah Waterfall—l live in Field-lane, Belper. On the morning in question I was in the house about half -past eight o'clock, when the prisoner brought our milk. Prisoner took up a pistol, and raid to a little boy in the house, " I will shoot you." Ile boy's name was Slater. The pistol went off and made a little noise. I did not find any bullet or shot, nor did I see any marks on the boy Slater. Prisoner went to the house immediately afterwards. Mr. Superintendent Shave, of Belper, produced a quantity of shot corns (18 in number) and some wads. Four of the shots had blood upon them, which he had received from David Ashover. Ile jot a warrant for the apprehension of the prisoner on August 14, but he was not to be found, although they had scoured the country for him. Mr. Leech wrote on Monday last, saying prisoner would volun tarily surrender, and he has done so. This was the whole of the evidence, and the depo sitions having been read over, prisoner was com mitted for trial for unlawfully and maliciously wounding. Naval and Military Intelligence. The Lords of the Admiralty landed yesterday morning shortly after 10 o'clock at the Devonport dockyard, where they were received by Port-Ad miral W. F. Martin, K.C.8., Admiral-Superinten dent T. R. Drummond, C. 8., Capt. G. C. Willes, Steam Reserve ; Captain the Hon. F. A. C. Foley (Cambridge), Capt. W. N. Rolland (Lord Warden), Capt. J. C. Burgoyne, V.C. (Wivern), Capt. F. S. Freemantle (Impregnable), Mr. Moore, Master Shipwright, and the officials of the dockyard. Their lordships proceeded to the office of the Admiral- Superintendent, where there were assembled the lion. T. L. Corry, First Lord of the Admiralty- Vice-Admiral Sir Alexander Milne, K.C.8., First Sea Lord; Admiral G. H. Seymour, C.B. ; Major Clark, Chief Inspector of the Engineering Depart ment; Admiral R. S. Robinson, Controll er o f t h e Navy ; and Capt. Brandretb, Lord H. Lennox, and Mr. C. Du Cane. Their lordship's continued on duty in the office until half-past 12. After luncheon they would commence their inspection by proceed ing through the Devonport dockyard and Keyham steamyard. In the evening they dine at Mount Wise with the Port Admiral, after which they go to the ball at St. George's-hall, Stonehouse, in favour of the Royal Female Orphan Asylum. The paddle-wheel steam frigate Valorous, 16, Captain Charles C. Forsyth, which arrived in Ply mouth Sound yesterday morning, left the Cape of Good Hope on the 4th of July ; touched at St. Helena on thel9th of July; atAscension on the 25th, and at St. Vincent on the Bth of August. She spoke July 8, an English bark showing the third distin guishing pendant 8239, from Algoa Bay for Lon don ; on the 15th, the P. Bouverie, 71., days from Bombay, for Liverpool ; and the Clara, 59 days from Madras, for London ; on the 17th, an English ship showing first distinguishing pendant 0275, 67 days from Calcutta, for London ; August 1, the English ship Inventory, and August 29, the ship Essex. The Valorous brings the following officers invalided from the West Coast of Africa :—Mr. Thurston Stringer,master ; Mr. Jeremiah Donovan, assist.-surg. ; and Mr. Henry J. Morgan, midship man. The Valorous was put into commission on the 15th of April, 1863. She will be inspected to day preparatory to proceeding into Ilamoaze, when her crew will be p aid off. The indicator diagrams taken on the last trial of the Waterwitch hydraulic propelled gun vessel over the measured mile * in Stoke's Bay, near Ports month,on the 27th inst., gives the following figures: —At full-boiler power—lndicated horse powert 800.85; mean pressure of steam in the cylind_rs, 25-9991 b. At half-boiler power—lndicated horse power, 271 . 23 ; mean pressure of steam in the cylin ders, 12.9741 b. It is somewhat remarkable that on the present trial the Water witch with a greater exerted power of her engines should have obtained a less rate of speed, as comf ared with her previous trial on the 9th iust., as shown by the subjoined figures :—August 9.—lndicated horse power, at full power, 777.13 ; at half power, 226-02 ; mean pres sure of steam in the cylinders —at full boiler power, 26.727 ;at half boiler power, 11 . 615. The loss in the ship's speed on the 27th can only be ascribed to the fouling of her bottom, which may have taken place during the 23 days she had been out of dock, and to the alteration in her trim from her former trial, her trim having been 10in. by the stern on her trial on the 9th inst., and b u t 4i n . on her last trial. The only fact learnt from this last trial of the ship corroborates the remarks made in The Sun a . few days since, that the Waterwitch needed no further trial, the only vessel of the three —the Viper, Vixen, and Waterwitch—that it was necessary to give another trial to, so as to stamp the competitive series at their proper value, being the Viper at the trim she was designed to steam at —l2in. by the stem. The Waterwitch was tested on her last trial at the same mean draught of water as the Viper. Mean draughts do not, however, re present equal conditions unless the vessels have the same trim. The Viper was trimmed 23 inches by the stern, but the Waterwitch was only trimmed by the stern six inches. With this difference the form of the hole each made in the water was very diffe rent, and all conditions of equality were destroyed. It has always been understood that thelVaterwitch, the Viper, and the Vixen were specially built to test the comparative value of the hydraulic wheel and the screw, and that with the Waterwitch trimmed at an even keel and the others each 12 inches by the stern the displacement iu both measurement and form would be as nearly as possible alike with all three vessels. If this be the case, it is evident that all trials made under other conditions are entirely valueless. The Government screw storeship Ilesper, Staff- Commander James G. H. Tli ain, arrived at Spithead yesterday morning from China. In addition to her cargo of stores she brought home a number of naval invalids and 30 invalided soldiers, accompanied by Lieut. Dunn, 2d battalion 29th Regiment, iu mili tary charge, and Assist.-Sorg. llensman, 2d batta lion 20th Regiment, in medical charge. To-day will be observed as a holiday in Ports mouth dockyard,. by permission of the Lords of the Ad:uiralty, given on the occasion of their recent visit of inspection to that establishment. The unarmoured screw frigate Forte, 29, 2,364 tons, 400-horse power (nominal), attached to the third division of the steam reserve squadron in the Medway, has been placed iu dock, where she is undergoing a thorough overhaul and refit previously to being placed in the first-class steam reserve, in readiness for commission. The Forte will require some heavy repairs, which will detain her iu the shipwright's hands for some time. A number of hands: are employed in the steam sawing-mills at Chatham Dockyard preparing the timbers and cutting out the frames for a new unarmoured screw corvette, to be named the Wood- lark, which is to be at once commenced at Chatham, from the designs of the Chief Constructor of the Navy. The Woodlark is to bo one of a new de scription of improved screw corvettes designed by Mr. Reed, between the Blanche and the old type of screw corvettes, of which the Rattlesnake was the last constructed at Chatham. She will be of 1,450 ons burden, with engine power of 400 horses, and will mount an armament of six heavy guns. The vessels of this class will be constructed on the U-shaped principle, with broad midship sections, which will give ample accommodation for the officers and crew, besides allowing them to carry more powerful machinery than usually fitted to vessels of their tonnage. In consequence of the whole arrangements con nected with the proposed siege operations at Chatham, which were to have taken place, as con templated, on Monday next, not being completed, the review and engineering operations have been postponed by the authorities until a future occasion The under-tueutimed officers of the 2d battalion 190 100 100 Ico 100 100 931 / 99i 100 112; 12 of the 22d Regiment have proceeded from Chatham garrison to Newcastle, to join the depot of that regiment :—Capt. A. J. Davern, Capt. J. W. Tre vor, Lieut. G. Turner, Lieut. 11. B. Pitman, Lieut. A. G. Richards, and Ensign T. E. G. Molyneux. Recruiting for the corps of Royal Marines Light Infantry having lately been attended with great success, in consequence of the increase of pay recently made for the non-commissioned officers and men of that branch of the service, the whole of the divisions are now up to their full establishment. An order was accordingly received at the headquarters of the Chatham division from the Admiralty yes terday directing the standard for recruits to be raised from sft. sin. to sft. Glin.; discharges by purchase being at the same time resumed. Deputy-inspector-Gen. It. Bowen, lately attached b) the medical department in Canada, has been ap pointed principal medical officer at Chatham, suc ceeding Dep.-Inspector-Gen. J. Fraser, AI.D., C. 8., and has commenced his duties at the garrison. About 200 men belonging to the depots of the Ist, 21, 9th, 46th, 47th, and 58th Regiments have arrived at Pembroke Dock, from Devonport. These detachments were sent to Plymouth a few months ago, where it was expected their services would be required. Their further presence in that district being considered unnecessary, the men have returned to their old quarters. Major-Gem.Spencer, K.C.8., in his general orders at Devonport, spoke iu high terms of the excellent good conduct of these troops during their stay at Plymouth. On Monday morning three officers, with 128 non-commissioned officers and men, of the Ist bat talion Grenadier Guards, will leave Waterloo by the 10.50 a.m. down train en the London and South Western Railway for Windsor, in advance of the main strength of the battalion, which is to relieve the Ist battalion Scots Fusileer Guards at present quartered in the Infantry Barracks, Sheet-street. On the following morning the rest of the battalion, consisting of 11 officers, 525 non-commissioned officers. and men, 84 women . , 107 children, and four horses, will march to the 'Waterloo terminus of the South Western line, and at 10 a.m proceed by special train for 'Windsor, where they will arrive shortly after 11 o'clock. STATE OP TRADE. MANarEsTER, Aug. 30.—There is very little doing in either yarn or cloth, and the market still wears a very depressed tone. Not only is the de pression still severely felt in shipping yarns, which had declined id. to id. per lb. on Tuesday, but there is next to nothing doing for the markets of India and Germany. The price of yarns for these markets is again rather lower, but what stops busi ness is not a question of price, but an absence of demand. Yarns for China have been an exception, and buyers of these have operated pretty freely at the full rates of the day. For home-trade yarns the market is depressed, and they are almost unsaleable. The demand for yarns suitable to Glasgow is equally flat. Prices are tending downward for most de scriptions of cops, and we have now had 10 to 12 days of steady decline. In cloth the same weaken ing tone which has prevailed for some time still continues, and is attended by much irregularity in prices. Buyers continue to make reductions in the rates they offer, and will only give these where the goods are in stock or can be quickly supplied. These low rates have met with acceptance in some instances where goods are on hand, but manufacturers find it impossible to put down orders to contract except under the feel ing that th©y have only the alternative of doing this, stopping their looms, or making to stock. There is an opinion expressed in some quarters that the market has now reached its lowest point, but few seem to have practical faith enough in it to hold goods where an opportunity of selling presents it self. We close without much business for any foreign markets, and long cloths, T- cloths, domestics, and counterpanes for the home trade are but in moderate demand, partaking of the same tendency to weakness which affects other fabrics. LEIcEsTEn, 30th.—There has been less activity in hosiery than during the past few weeks, the improve ment that was anticipated Laving given place to a somewhat dull feeling, although a few orders are still being placed. The factors seem to have sup plied their immediate requirements, to have on hand small stocks, and to show no disposition to purchase largely until they know the wants of the shop keepers, who complain on all hands of an in significant trade. Wools are unchanged. Prices are steady, and no one seems inclined to sell or buy. The better class of wools are the only qualities that meet with any sale, and of these but little is leaving the staplers. Plain worsted yarns are as before quoted, and manufacturers are mostly engaged in completing orders. Lambswool goods are flat, at stationary rates. Fancy yarns and hosiery are a moderate inquiry ; cotton yarns are slightly lower. The uncertainty in the price of cotton causes the cotton hosiery trade of Hinck ley to remain very depressed. In the elastic webbing trade only partial einploythent is given ; but the boot and shoe trade is more favourable. Railway Traffic Returns for the Week. 1111 es Opened. Receipts.
