The progress of business during the past week in the manufacturing districts has continued un f vourable, the advices from America having almost suspended operations for those markets. At Leeds the dealings have been chiefly for immediate home requirements, while little or no improvement can be recorded at Bradford, Manchester, and Hudders field. The hosiery trade at Leicester has continued dull, and no change of importance has taken place in the general aspect of operations in the hardware manufacturing districts. In the Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday great excitement prevailed, and prices slightly ad vanced. The sales were fully 20,000 bales, but many stocks were withdrawn owing to the Ameri can news. The traffic receipts of the Great Eastern Rail way of Canada for the week ending the 19th ult. exhibited an increase of £829, compared with last year. About £2,000 in Australian gold was sent into the Bank of England on Saturday. The Southampton has been announced this morning from Australia with £86,000 in specie. A call of £2 per share, amounting to £120,000, becomes due to-morrow on the Recife and San Prancisco Railway shares. The bills which arrived at maturity on Saturday the 4th of the month were met in a satisfactory Manner, no failures of importance being recorded, and the money market now presents a relieved appearance, although a •moderate business is still negotiated at 5 per cent. for the best commercial securities. An easier feeling, nevertheless, pre vails, in consequence of the abundance of money, the influx into the 13 tnk of a part of the recent supplies of Australian gold, and the impression that further failures among the Greeks will be prevented. Then has been a very quiet market for Public Securities to-day, and the quotations do not exhibit any variations, Consols being 911 q for money and the 9th instant, and 92 to 921 for the account in June. The intelligence from America is still exercising an important effect upon the tendency of values. The New Threes and the Reduced are steady at 90-1- ; Bank Stock at 232 ; India ditt o 223 k 225; ditto 5 per Cents. 1011 2; and Exche qur are heavy at 7s. to 22. dis. Rather more business is recorded in the Foreign Stock Market, and prices have been tolerably steady. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 74 to 72; _ditto 1858, 561- to 57; Mexican are flat at 23 g ; Sianish are firm at 422 ; ditto Deferred at 42.7-, ; Portu guese at 471; and Russian at 102 ; Sardinian are heavy at 801; Venezuelan 3 per Cents. at 191 1; and ditto 1i per Cents, at 91. The dealings in the Railway Share Market have been on a rather restricted scale, and in most in stances prices have shown a droopibg tendency. Great Western, Brighton, North Western, Man chester, Sheffield and Lincoln, Midland, North Eastern (Berwick), and South Eastern have de clined ss. ; and Lancashire and Yorkshire, and West Midlands, 10s. ; Eastern Counties have im proved ss, In the Foreign Market the chief feature has been a further advance of to 4 per cent. in South Austrian and Lombardo-Venetian, the latest quota tions being 14-} -Z. The Colonial lines have remained in fair request 'without any material change in values. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares con tinue very dull.

The leading country markets held on Saturday were rather scantily supplied with wheat. Most kinds, how ever, were a dull inquiry, and, in some instances, prices had a drooping tendency. All spring corn, especially barley and oats, commanded extreme rates; but flour was rather lower to purchase. The Continental markets continue dull for wheat ; but other articles are still in good export demand. In the United States, both wheat and flour are lower in value. Up to our market last week, the arrivals of home-grown produca was again much restricted. From abroad we received 24,160 quarters of wheat, 3,070 barley, 18,385 oats, 2,200 rye, 2,864 beans, 100 peas, 4,110 linseed, 6,874 rape:Tel, 570 maize, 91 sundry, 2,533 sacks, and 8,235 barrels of flour. The arrivals of English wheat up to this morning's mar ket were much restricted ; but, on the whale, the condition of the samples was tolerably dry . . Fite parcels met a steady sale, and prices were well supported otherwise. The trade was in a sluggish state, yet, compared with Monday last, no quotable change can be reported in the quotations. We were well supplied with foreign wheat. Nearly all descriptions were in fair consumptive request, and late rates were well supported ; indeed, in sow° instances, fine samples were held at rather more money. In malt a limited business was transacted, at late rates. Oats were in steady request, and their value was fully maintained. Old beans we re very scarce, and small quality was held 'at 60s per quarter. New sorts were Is per quarter dearer than on this day se'nnight. Grey peas ruled firmer price ; but white qualities were dull in the extreme. The flour trade was inactive, and the quotations ruled quite as low as on Monday last, Floating cargoes of grain were in only moderato request, on former terms. All good and fine qualities of barley moved off steadily, at very full prices ; but other sorts were much neglected. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASPRE.

For the time of year the supply of foreign stock here to-day was only moderate. On the whole, however, its quality was good. Sales progressed slowly, but at full prices generally. The arrivals of beasts, fresh up from our own grazing district's, were rather limited, and there was a slight falling Off in quality compared with many previous weeks. Nearly all breeds moved off slowly, and last Monday's currency was with difficulty supported. The very best Scots sold at ss. per Blbs. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire we received 2,000 Scots, crosses, &c. ; from other parts of Eng land, 560, various breeds; and from Scotland, 600 Scots and crosses—the latter in prime condition. We were fairly supplied with sheep as to number, but their general quality was very middling. prime Devons and half-breds commanded a steady sale, at full currencies. All other breeds were a dull inquiry, at previous rates. The best Downs, out of the woel, produced ss. per Sibs. Our quotations now refer solely to shorn sheep. Prime lambs were scarce, and in request, at full prices. Otherwise the lamb trade was rather heavy. About 250 lambs came to hand from the Isle of Wight. Calves—the supply of which was limited—sold readily, at very full prices. Pigs commanded previous rates, but the demand for them was by no means active. The supply was moderate.

In colonial and foreign parcels, owing to the approaching public sales, which commence on Thursday next, next to nothing is doing ; nevertheless, there is no change to notice in their value. Last week's imports were 2,524 bales from Sydney, 1,999 from Melbourna, and 816 from Algoa Bay. SEEDS. The trade for cloverseed is now nearly over.

The Two Thousand this year maintained all its ancient prestige, and never, perhaps, has it been speculated en to the same extent, or has the betting on it been marked by the same extraordinary fluctuations. There were not, to be sure, any of the mysterious movements nor the "knockings out" which characterised this race last year, but there were enough of trials, and rumours of trials, to cause uncertainty to prevail to the very last, and never was the denouement of any great drama looked forward to with more intense interest. The quadrupedant actors in the concluding scene numbered sixteen, one more than last year, and it took some time before all could tread their way through the cloud of horsemen that covered the entire space between the old and new saddling stables. The greater number made their toilets in the former, but the Whitewall trio, as usual, occu pied the latter, whilst Oates prefer red to put the Kettledrum to rights on the far side of the Ditch, where he was sur rounded by an admiring crowd, the majority of whom pro nounced his condition to be perfect. Klarikoff, who was pftsceded by the Clarissa colt, and had The Knight of St. Patrick as his attendant, also looked well, though scarcely csrown or improved anything since last year, except, per haps, that he has tust..-see r l a little. IV ith good quarters and loins, he has a short fore hang, with not the beat shoulders in the world, and his galloping was so far from being the " poetry of motion," that he was universally dis liked; surprise being universally expressed how it was possible that a horse of his action could have beaten The "Wizard at 181 b., as reported ; and it does indeed seem pass ing strange. He appeared somewhat fractious at first, and if not of a nervous temperament, certain appearances indi cated that some of his friends (?) had treated him to a seidlitz powder, or perhaps something stronger in that way. Preceptress looked in blooming condition, but not grown in the least ; nor has Sweet Hawthorn, who in size and colou r a pp eare d almost an exact match for Russlev. Overton's action pleased everybody but his appearance few, and The Struggler " took" in no way, while it was evident that Gardener was too under sized for the course. Both of Lord Stamford's horses looked in magnificent form, the greatest share of attention being bestowed on Imaus, his little stable companion, Diophantus, who, like The Wizard last year, was under the cloud of being beaten in his trial by the Himalayan, at tracting but little notice. Not grown an inch since last year, he has thickened and rounded in his points, and is now a perfect picture of strength and durability in a small com pass. Antwerp and Copernicus appeared to be nothing changed since last seen ; and thence, with Anthem, Knight of St. Patrick, the Clarissa colt, Russley, and Janus made up the sixteen runners. Great difficulty was expe rienced in giving the horses their preliminary "opener," as they were scarcely able to wend their way through the vast body of horsemen that crowded the running ground as well as every other part of the Heath. Nobody liked Kettledrum when he took his first sleepy canter, but when he was wakened up the second time it was evident he could travel almost as strong and as swift as a steam engine* Overton's going was, however, better liked than any; and after him Preceptress and Diophantus showed, by their bounding elastic action, that the little-uns could go as well as the big. Klarikoff's galloping pleased nobody, as he ap-. peared to labour, and seemed very heavy in Fordham's hands. Klarikoff displayed staying qualities of the first order to finish where he did, for Forciham had to sit down and ride him long before reaching the Bushes, to which point or a little beyond Preceptress looked as formidable as anything. The success of Diophantus is thus again con firmatory of public running, which, if stuck to, is certain to prove correct nine times in ten, all private trials to the contrary notwithstanding. How the issue will affect the Derby it is, at this time, almost impossible to say ; but it seems to me that Klarikoff will see a much shorter price before many days are over, and start first or second favou rite. He will prove a good investment at the present odds, and if he does not win his backers will have good hedging. The Chester Meeting commences to-morrow. There are seven races on the first day. The first of the closed items is the Palatine Cup Stakes, thus : Ago et lb Duneany Mdllo. de Chantilly a 8 11 Comfort3r Ben Webster 4 8 6 First Lord 4 g Weatherbound Faultless 4 8 0 Oxford the weights for which stand Age st lb Optimist 4 7 7 Angelo East Stanley 3 6 10 York Minstar Lupus 3 6 2 Cantatrice Lady nil on As Ben Webster may bo reserved for the Cup, I give the preference over the others to OPTIMIST and Yout MINSTER. The Chesterfield Stakes ought to go to FLIRTATION; the Wynstay Handicap to WATERWITCII ; and the Mostyn Stakes to Mr. Merry's EXPRESS, even with his slb penalty. The principal race on Wednesday is the Cup. From the opening, scarcely any but animals in one interest have been backed for money, and the race, which in former years used to engender such spirited and extensive speculation, is now scarcely ever mentioned in betting circles without evoking bitter allusions, or an imprecation. The field will scarcely exceed 16, to bo selected from the following : Age st lb Wallace 4 8 2 Schism Faultless Light 5 7 8 First Lord. ... 4 7 8 Ben Webster .... 4 7 8 Satellite 5 7 7 Age st lb Millionaire 4 6 12 Chere Arnie Birmingham . 5 6 7 Jealousy ' a 6 4 Herne Horace Cashio .. West End Flirtation Predictor Man-at-Arms The Brewer Light and Black Prince constitute the French division Ike former I should say being the intended, looking at the support he has received in the market. Ho is a horse of fair average merit, having only started twice last year, when he ran fourth fora sweepstakes at the Newmarket Houghton; his second attempt was a great improvement, running second, carrying 7st 13lb, to Brewer, aged, 7st 11b, for the Liverpool Autumn Cup (one mile and three-quarters), and a good field. This was a good performance, as Brewer only won by a neck, and as the French horses are in great force at the present time he will be dangerous. Wallace is in cluded in Godding's lot, which comprises a formidable string of eight—all possessing some form. Those that have ap peared in the market are Chere Arnie, Wallace, and Man at-Arms, the former from her favourable weight and the money that was invested on her last year for one or two of her engagements, was made first favourite on the appearance of the weights ; she then gave way to Man-at-arms, which he afterwards resigned in favour of Wallace, which he still holds, though his stable companions are very nearly on a par with him. Cashio will, in all probatility, turn out the best of William Day's lot, and if backed in earnest will prove a dangerous customer to the favourites. Wild Rose and Predictor are both in the same stable, and both have been backed, the latter within the last day or two ; the former has shown racing powers of more than ordinary merit. Ben Webster has always performed well, and may secure a place. Satellite, from his performance in the Goodwood Stakes, will run forward. Herne and Horace belong to the same owner, and war.bre weight of Horace he will beat more than beats him. Faultless has run well on more than one occasion, and as she can stay, and has speed, she will run to the front. The Brewer and Jealousy belong to the ' Epsom division, and the winner of the Liverpool Steeplechase will be near winning. Flirtation, from a trial with Horror, has been backed for money, and ought to run forward. To make a selection, I will retain Godding's lot, which com prises Chere Arnie, Man-at-Arms, and Wallace, and I ex pect the judge will place CHERE AMIE SATELLITE 2 BEN WEBSTER .. 3 The Biennial Produce h' takes Mr. Merry will secure with either Folkestone or' Starlight.

The Earl of CARNARVON moved for copies and cor respondence between the Government and the Consul- General of Egypt, and any other communications that have passed between her Majesty's Government and the Govern ments of Turkey and France relative to the SIIP7, Canal. The noble lord said he thought the con• struction of such a canal was of very great importance to this country both politically and oonnnorcially, but that it was full of difficulties of an almost insurmountable nature, and that being so, it was to be regretted that money was to be embarked in the undertaking. But as there were political considerations mixed up with this work, he thought it was the duty of the Government to give all the explamtions in their power t 3 show the policy they have pursued, as the canal was being prosecuted with vigour by M. Lesseps and a foreip company under powers granted to him by the Viceroy of Egypt, and he wished the Government to inform their lordships of the steps they had taken in the "Ater. M. Lesseps had per suaded the Viceroy to become responsible to an enormous amount, not only for his own life, but for that of his suc cessors, and in fact so securely fixed the Paella that M. Lesseps held, he might say, the government of Egypt. The French Government was most interested in the question, and though he did not wish in any way to obstruct the ex tension of the commerce of France, he thought it was of the greatest importance that she should not, unless in a fair and legitimate manner, take such steps as to prejudice the neutrality of Egypt. He thought the object of the company in executing the Work appeared clear and unmistakable ; its great object seemed to be to identify every act of their own with the French Government at home. He sincerely hoped the Government would not mix itself up with a bankrupt com pany, or attempt to vamp up a mercantile failure for a more gross or delusive bubble was never launched upon the sea of commerce.

Mr. LONGFIELI) asked the Secretary to the Treasury whether (having regard to the estimate for the Post-office packet service for the year 1861-2) it w.!s the intention of her Majesty's Government to discontinue the additional mail monthly, to and from China; and whether any notice had been given to her Majesty's Postmaster-General to that effect ; and, if so, to state what has been the expense to the public of this fortnightly mail, giving credit for the sums received for postege of letters thereby ? Mr. PEEL said that the carriage of the second monthly mail, on application to Government last year, was renewed for a period of six months, a subsidy being imposed at the rate of £24,000 a2year. TIIE ENGRAVERS TO TIIE ROYAL MINT. Mr. POTTS asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if it was intended to adopt the principle of competitive exami lion for the office of Engraver to the Royal Mint, _npn . vacant by the superannuation of Mr. James AVyon,.ril the t view to the combination of mechanica l knowledge engraver's art, in the appointment , and to the general svi im provement of the British coinage ? h X e C rs t Q i o r n Eaßt said he The CHANCELLORto an th e e r was not in a condition vacan w t, ai b t u q u titubelfore the Master of taking any s T te h p e s o i ffi a creefi reference to a t t ion it he was would the Mint had made his report on the subject, CANON 29.1 Mr. IL SEYMOU .

Sir G. C. LEWIS said that the Convocation of the Pro vince of Canterbury had received a license from her Majesty to amend or repeal that canon, but they had not yet availed themselves of that privilege. He understood there was an ancient canon of the Church which had the same effect. AMERICA. Mr. GREGORY asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether any attempt on the part of the Govern ment of the United States to levy 'Ft:demo.' dues off foreign vessels outside the ports of the Southern Confede racy, before such vessels break bulk, would not be an in fringement of international law; and, if so, whether in structions would be issued to our cruisers to that effect. Lord J. RUSSELL, who was very indistinctly heard, said he had consulted the Queen's advocate, who stated that the matter must entirely depend on circumstances. No such instrtictions as those alluded to had been issued. With regard to any blockade that might be attempted it would not be recognised unless it were effective. The Southern States must be considered as belligerent, and as related to the belligerent rights of certain portions of the States, they had the precedfmt of 1825 in respect to Greece, when the belligerent rights of :he provisional Go vernment of that country Were allowed, notwithstanding the remonstrance of the Government of Turkey. riding the question with regard to the American States arose, .T! attention of the Crown officers had been directed mums, e subject.

With respect to the Princess Royal, the house had granted to her Royal Highness a dower of £40,000, and an annuity during her life of £S,OOO, but it was now proposed to apply only for £30,000 for a dower, and an annuity of £5,000 a year for Her Royal High ness the Princozs Alice. It was eqicntial to the ;interests rand dignity of this country that members of the Royal Family should not go abroad as paupers. (Hear, hear.) The noble lord concluded by moving a resolution voting the dower, which, as well as the annuity of £6,000 a year to H.R.11. Princess Alice, was agreed to in Com mittee of Supply. The hour© Then resumed. PUBLIC EXPENDITURE. In reply to Sir H. WILLOUGHBY, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCIIEQUER said that the estimates respecting China were made on his official authority, and he believed they would be found correct. From difference of the financial years in this country and India, it would be impossible to speak with certainty relative to the finances of the latter. He did not anticipate any increase in the navy estimates would be rendered necessary by the events that had oc. curred in America.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.) A DOUBLF. RANIIRtPTCY—IN RE Tirox,k, NORTH AND JOSEPH NOIITH. This was a meeting for the last examination of Thomas North, of Brighton, contractor, &c., carrying on business in partnership with Joseph North, against whom a separate petition has been filed, but has not been proceeded with, as the latter is undergoing a term of imprisonment for forgery. The accounts of Thomas North, prepared by Messrs. Hart Brothers, and Hayles, 'commences May, 1859, with a deficiency of £l5O, and he now owes to creditors £501; to creditors holding security, £181; creditors, by goods debts, £174; property in the hands of creditors (under a bill of sale), £717 ; profits, £2,237 ; expenses, £1,996. Mr. Roxburgh tendered a proof against the estate of Thomas IQorllr, under the following circumstances. A judment had been recovered against Joseph North for £4OO and property seized under aji fa, but the assignees of Thos. North had got a verdict; it was now sought to prove against the estate, so that the Court might be moved to ap • point new assignees under the estate of Joseph North, as they were the same persons as represented the estate of Thomas North. His Honour said Mr. Roxburgh was at present in a posi tion to proceed, but must give notice and proceed by motion. The examination was adjourned, in consequence of some disputed proofs and no accounts having been filed by Joseph North. Mr. Roxburgh said that the interests of the parties were very complicatory; as the case stood the creditors of Thomas would get 20s, in the pound, and those of Joseph nothing. IN RE NIENSOR. This bankrupt was au upholsterer, at Brighton, and this I,s as an examination meeting, but adjourned, as Messrs. Hart Brothers, and Bayles, had not completed the ac counts. The debts are stated at £2,600 ; assets, £1,050. This bankrupt was a chemist, at Gravesend, and passed on account by Messrs. Hart and Co. Debts, £1,550; assets, £275. A petition was presented this morning by Mr. Sorrel!, of Mark-lane, against Abraham Harris, of Railway-place, Shoreditch, cigar merchant and tobacconist. The amount of the debts and liabilities have not yet been ascertained. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT—(2his_Day.) OLD COURT. The May sessions commenced to-day. The calendar contained the names of 45 prisoners. The Grand Jury having been duly sworn, The Recorder, in charging them, said he was very glad to have to inform them that the number of cases on this occasion was not very large, indeed, it was much smaller, considering the time that had elapsed since the last sittings, than might have been reasonably expected. In most of them it was quite unnecessary that he should particularly direct their attention, but there were two or three calling for notice. The first was that of a man named Delobe and a woman, Sullivan, who were charged, the one with committing a rape on a girl 14 years of age, and the other with aiding and assisting. There were some pecu liarities in the case which it would be necessary for them in considering it to observe : for instance, the girl had mani festly told some falsehoods in her evidence, and they must therefore satisfy themselves as to how far that would go to shake her entire testimony. The prisoners were also charged with an assalt and attempt to rob a man who was induced to go into the house, and who found the girl there in great distress. There was a very painful charge against one Reynolds, the details of which were of a character it was unnecessary that he should enter upon. There was a very singular case in which Barbara Wilson was charged with conspiring with two other persons to palm off a child as her own which really belonged to her sister. It seemed that had the child been hers it would have .been entitled to some estate,' and, therefore, she represented it to be one of which she had just been con fined, at a time when it - 4 - as four months old. The only other case he should refer to was one of which they had probably all heard, that of Durden and Holcroft, who were charged with robbing the Commercial Bank of £60,000. The former was the lodger-keeper, and had, in fact, ad mitted his defalcation; and the latter was a customer of the bank, and lie had assisted and participated in the frauds. He apprehended that there would be no difficulty on the part of the jury in coming to a conclusion that these parties were acting in concert. John Sales was charged with an assault with, &c., on a child of ten years of age. Mr. Sleigh appeared to prosecute, and prisoner was de fended by Mr. Tindal Atkinson. The evidence in the ease was not of a charae,tcr suitable for publication. The jury acquitted the prisoner. LMDEZZLEMENT. Chules henry Coles was charged with having embezzled above 1100, the property of .his employer. Mr. Metcalfe appeared for the prosecution, Mr. Orridge for the defence. Prisoner pleaded guilty last session, and was remanded to this for sentence, in order that he might give informa tion as to certain missing property. Mr. Orridge stated that in the interval the prisoner had g h i o v v, e n , a s all u t t h i e tl i , n and formation the so n h e f h a n d i g i h t l i y n r h e i s s p e p e o t w a b e l r e to p a g r i c v n e t ; who sought to get him the shortest possible term of im prisonment, at the expiration of which they would remove from eharg hs charged d i w e i v t i h l c r o e v a i n n i g o n s s t 0 , l t ehne good o r d s t s o f f ro v, n • l h h om im i , t a a n p a pe w a as rs was admitted to bail, and had absconded. Mr. Metcalfe said he could not agree in any recommenda tion for mitigation of punishment, as prisoner had not given any information as to some blank cheques which were abstracted, and one of which had been used at prosecutor's bankers with his name forged to it. Prisoner denied any knowledge of these cheques. The learned Recorder said he looked in vain for any mitigating circumstances, and must sentence the prisoner to three years' rondl servitude. ALICE INTELLIGENCE.—( This Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
