Sales, about 10,000 bales. ports, 1,282 bales ; previously, 1,321. STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, April 2 9.—Shipping yarns have been in good demand. Since Tuesday our market has advanced day by day, and large sales have been made at higher prices. Today we have had a very active market, and moat yarns are jd. to ld. per lb. higher than on Tuesday, many spinners refining to sell even at this advance. The demand has been general for all markets, and we close with a strong and buoyant feeling, and with many spinners deeply under contract; In home trade yarns, also, there has been more business doing, notwithstanding the tendency which higher prices have to put some check upon operations. Manu facturers as well as shippers are more disposed to buy, and for home trade yarns prices are about id. per lb . dearer than on Tuesday, for all counts. There is an improvement to some extent in cloth, but it has not kept pace either as to activity or price with the cotton and yarn markets. From Tuesday to last night the market for cloth was generally rather quiet. Sellers could easily have made sales, it is true, at last week's rates, but the large purchases of cotton made at Liverpool had been an inducement to manufacturers to seek an improvement in price, and this was an ef f ectual check on business. To-day we have had more activity. Advices from Bombay (April 14) reporting shirtings lid. to 21-d higher, and from Calcutta (April 12 and 13) reporting an inereaed demand, with 40's mule twist lid. per lb. and shirtings 4id. to 74d. per piece higher, and with letters spe a ki ng very favourably of the pros speeta of trade, have had an immediate and cheering effect on this market. We have had an inquiry for India cloths almost approaching to excitement. The advance which manufacturers are disposed to put on goods has, to some extent, checked opera tions, but still a fair (some say a large) amount of business has been done in goods suitable to India and China at a slight advance on Tuesday's prices. The % re has been also more disposition to buy for other m ar k ets, b ut it is checked by the rise in prices. PREFERENCE SHARES. Great Western Orig. 4/ per cent. pf., 99 Mid.

Everything was ready the day previously, but the explosion was not allowed to take place on account of its being a festa on that day. The mili tary band was ordered not to play, and the usual permission to the soldiers to remain out of barracks in the evening was withdrawn. The authorities were anxious on this, as on previous occasions, and especially during the progreEs of the demolition, not to do any act that might be considered as offensive by the natives. "A' hundred rumours were in circulation at the end of the week, that the general had received in structions to suspend the embarkation of troops for the present. Whether or not this be true, which I have good reason to suppose it is, it has, however, been determined not to remove the Ist battalion of the 9th, who are stationed in the Southern Islands. It is feared that outbreaks will occur if the English troops are withdrawn before others are ready to take their place; indeed, it is known that some of the peasants at Cerigo, combining with those of Mainci, have a plot against certain landholders and others in the island. Greece has no troops to send for the purpose of protection, and mutiny is spreading among those she possesses. "The Porte is well prepared for any con tins gency that may arise out of the unsettled state of things existing here and in Greece.

IRELAND. This morning the young man, John Devine, who was found guilty at the last sessions of the Central Criminal Court for the murder of Joseph Duck, a retired tradesman in Great Chesterfield-street, Marylebone, was executed at the Old Bailey. The prisoner made a full confession of his crime, and acknowledged the justness of his sentence. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day, DUBLIN, April 30. Sir Thomas Judkin Fitzgerald, the descendant of a man unhappily notorious in 1798, committed suicide on Tuesday night last by throwing himself into the river Suir, near his own residence, Golden Hills. It appears that he was severely pressed by pecuniary difficulties. He had been in Dublin the greater part of the previous week, it is supposed with the object of effecting an arrangement with some of his creditors. There he was met by several of his friends, who found him in his usual health and spirits. He returned home, and was in Clonmel on Monday. It appears that there was an execution then in his house for a debt of £3OO, and the bailiff, were in possession. He made a last effort to raise this amount on Monday morning, but his solicitor failed to accomplish it, owing to the heavy liabilities under which he laboured. He went home by the train on Tuesday afternoon, having left a letter with his solicitor stating that he should shortly be no more, and indicating where his body would t o found. This gentleman immediately communicated with the office of the constabulary, and a telegram was at once sent with imperative orders for the in stant arrest of Sir Thomas Fitzgerald. But the precaution was, unfortunately, too late. He wrote similar letters to other friends, and among them was the following to Mr John Massy, justice of the peace : "Dublin, April 26, 1864. "My dear Massy,—l have a last request to make of you, and that is that you will on receipt of this go over to Golden Hills and see poor Lady Fitzgerald, my dearly be loved wife, for before you get this I will be no more. God have mercy upon me and my poor family. . . I ask this as a dying request, that you will go at once on re ceipt of this and see what is best to be done. . . . Igo down to-night on purpose to see my poor wife and family for the last time, and then my body will be found in the weir at that part called the Pig-hole, near Golden Hills. . . . . I again ask you, as a favour, not to desert my family till things are set to rights for them. It is the dying request of your friend, "THOMAS J. FITZGERALD." There was also a letter to Mr. Edmond Dalton, of which the following e is a copy:— " Dublin, April 26, 1864. "Dear Ned,-1 am going to ask a favour of you, and that is that you will get Mrs. Dalton to break the sad news of my death to poor Lady Fitzgerald. Igo down this evening, and my poor body will be found in the Suir at Pig-hole, where all the salmon arc taken, near where the white thorn stump is that was lately cut. The Lord have mercy on me and my poor family I "Yours truly, "THOMAS J. FITZGERALD." From the evidence given by his coachman and butler at the inquest held yesterday by Dr. Mor rissy, coroner of the district, we learn what occurred in pursuance of these letters. Sir Thomas arrived from Dublin at the Goold-cross station at 11 30 p.m. on Tuesday night. He drove the car himself very carefully. He was unusually silent, and seemed rather angry, as if he was disappointed about some thing ; but otherwise in his ordinary state of mind. He reached Golden-hills about half-past 12 o'clock, The family had retired to rest, except the butler, who waited up for his master. He first went up stairs, it was supposed to Lady Fitzgerald's room. In about 10 minutes he returned and took some tea. Some thine after he went to the parlour door and said, " Michael, come and take away the things." While the butler was doing as he was directed, his master went into his study. He again went up stairs, but shortly after the same servant heard him unbar the hall door and go out. He had taken no wine or spirits, and used never to take any. The servant, taking no notice of his going out, as he sometimes had occasion to do so, went to bed. After about an hour Lady Fitzgerald tapped at his door and said, " Michael, get up. Sir Thomas is gone out somewhere and he has not returned. You had better go out towards the shrubbery and see what is the matter. I fear he has got a weakness." The butler then went to the shrubbery, and not finding his master, Lady Fitzgerald became alarmed, and a second search, with a lantern, was made about the grounds in vain. At daylight the coachman was called, and when the search was about to be renewed Lady Fitzgerald came to Bourke, the butler, and said, " Michael, come here. I must have been stupid that I did not find this letter before now." She had a letter in her hand, which she said she had found on a stand at the side of the bed where her husband used to lie. She read a part of it. He inferred from it that all was over with Sir Thomas. He and Rourke, the coachman, then hurried out and searched all the grounds. At length they found his hat and coat on the bank of the river near the spot which the deceased had himself indicated. They hastened with this infor mation to Lady Fitzgerald, the police were sent for, and about 200 yards further down the body was found in the shallow water. Life was extinct. The Hon. Martin French, R.M., of Cashel, arrived early in the day, with Dr. Kennedy, of Tipperary, who examined the body, and found it without any marks of external violence, As Sir Thomas was a re markably good swimmer it is supposed he must h a vft taken some drug to prevent the failure of his attempi e.t self-destruction. The inquiry had not concluded when the last account left. The inquiry Tito the loss of the City of New York, which commeoced on Friday, and was ad journed without any evidence being taken, was re sumed yesterday. John AVCartney, chief officer of the wrecked vessel, deposed that he had served during the last five years on board the City of New York, that she left New York on the 19th of March, with a general cargo—mostly provisions. She carried 161 passengers. Everything was in good order when starting, and she had a crew of 106, including the captain. They had a fast and prosperous voyage till they reached the Irish coast ; when they passed the Old Head they slackened speed to 10 knots. The wind was about N.N.W., squally. It was clear moonlight, with heavy clouds occasionally passing. There were two hands upon the forecastle head, and one man between them to pass the word along, and one at the telegraph to pass the word into the engine-room if required, witness at the same time being on the upper bridge, keeping a sharp look-out with his telescope for the buoy on Daunt's Rock, or anything else. It was the practice to go through the Channel day and night, except when there was a dense fog ; then they took the course east of the Rock, making it by the lights on the Old Head, Ballycotton, and Roche's Point, when they could see them. They were within a quarter to half a mile of Robert's :Head—a bluff headland, with deeplwater up to the rocks, which a ship could almost shave. At 230 the captain was on the bridge, and had been on deck the whole of the witness's watch, except about ton minutes, when he went to change his wet clothes. Witness was still looking 'out for the buoy, when the ship struck hard on Daunt's Rock at 2 45 a.m. The buoy was afterwards seen at 130 yards' distance. They did not always see the buoy in passing. They made signals, but no assistance came till 4 o'clock, when the company's tender came along side. They got no assistance from the Coastguard station. About 8 o'clock the Magpie and Advice and the Cunard tender came alongside. The ship had eight boats on deck, which were at once put into requisition. They were all in good order, and quite sufficient to carry off the passengers. Captain Kennedy exerted himself to the utmost, giving orders quite coolly, and using every possible precaution: John Holden Cleaver, the th ird officer, Jamres Allen, a seaman, and David Fitzgerald, q a er master, gave evidence to the same eff ect. d Alexand e Taylor, chief engineer, describe d what e had to diminish the ship's speed. When he heard her ua r t o e n strike he thought it was a collision with another vessel. Water came in immediately and pet ou t the fires. Mr. William Ta y lor, chief officer of the Coastguard, deposed that be saw the signals, but regarded them as only the usual signals of the vessels approaching t h e harbottr, It was quite an ordinary thing to sail inside the Rock day and night. A shadow from the clouds and headland might prevent persons on board seeing the buoy. Mr. O'Dowd, who conducted the Inquiry for the Board of Trade, said that this was all the evidence he had to produce. The Londonderry Journal of this morning states that one of Lord Leitrim's bailiffs has been shot, and that Peter Griffin has been arrested for firing the shot, which took effect in the bailiff's thigh. It is not known whether the wound is dangerous. Au- SECONII► EDITION. METROPOLITAN CATTLE. The supply of foreign beasts here to-day was rather ex tensive—of sheep and calves only moderate. Sales pro gressed slowly, at about previous currencies. The arivals of beasts fresh up from our own grazing dis tricts, as well as from Scotland, were seasonably good, and in prime condition. From Ireland the receipts were limited. Nearly all breeds met a slow inquiry, at last Monday's quotations—the general top figure for beef being 4s 10d per Sibs; consequently, the advance on Thursday was lost. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshiro we received 2,120 Scots, crosses, and shorthorns; from other parts of England 700 various breeds ; from Scotland, 384 Scots and crosses ; and, from Ireland, 120 oxen and heifers. The supply of sheep was on the increase, and most breeds came to hand in good condition. On the whole, the mutton trade was firm, at an improvement in the quotations com pared with this day sen'night of 2d per Blbs. Downs, out of the wool, sold at 4s to 5s per 81bs. Our quotations now refer solely to shorn sheep. Lambs were in moderate supply, and sluggish request, at from 6s 4d to 7s 4d per Sibs. About 700 came to hand from the Isle of Wight. Calves moved off slowly, at late rates—viz., from 4s 4d to 5s 4d per 81bs. The supply was only moderate. ' In pigs, very little was passing, at about stationary prices.

Hart, Brothers, and Hayles, who had been appointed to prepare the accounts, had only been able to file them on Friday, and as they were very intricate, time was required for examination. The bankrupt was a very aged lady, and the business had been carried on by the same. DR. LIVINGSTONE, according to letters from Zambesi, is in good health. It is likely that ho will soon return to England. Mr. BENEDICT'S OPERETTA, announced a week or two since, will be produced in London, at Madame Louisa Vining's concert.

ROBBNRIES IN A CHAPEL.—A SYSTEMATIC THIEF.— Jane Hall, a girl, who described herself as a silkwinder was charged before Mr. Tvrwhitt with the following rob beries in St, Patrick's Chapel, Sutton-street, Soho. Mrs llannah Rogers, a widow, and keeping a house at No, 6, Queen-street, Sven• dials, said that on Saturday night last she si as in St. Patrick's Chapel, Sutton-street, Soho, and aftcr leaving the confessional, and while kneeling saying psayers, the prisoner kneeling next to her, she felt felt something touch her pocket, in which she had the rent she had shortly before received from her lodgers. On put ing her hand down she seized the prisoner's hand as it was coming out of her pocket, it being at the time full of money. She shook the prisoner's hand, and all the money from it into her (prosecutrix's) lap. Mr. Tyrwhit aske•l the prosecutrix whether she had ever seen the prisoner before, and she said she had not, and that directly after the prisoner let fall the money she ran away, but was stopped behind the pillars in the chapel, and said, "Do let me go. I'll never do it again." The prisoner was then given into custody by some person connected with the chapel. Mr Richardson, 212 C, said the prisoner was charged with picking the prosecutrix's pocket on Saturday night, and when at the station she said she had done so, but asked to be allowed to go home. Mrs Rebecca Martin, the wife of a painter, of 29, Ste phen-street, Tottenham-court-road, said that, on Saturday night four weeks, while kneeling in St. Patrick's Chapel, saying prayers, after leaving the confessional, the prisoner kneeling by her side, she felt something at her pocket. She turned towards the prisoner, but as she seemed so fer vently engaged in prayer she did not like to charge her. Shortly after, the prisoner left in a hurried manner, and on her (prosecutrix) putting her hand into her pocket she missed her purse, containing 14s 3d. On seeing the pri soner at the chapel on Saturday night, she at once recognised her again. On Mrs Martin taking her seat behind the dock, after giving her evidence, the prisoner turned round and said, "You old fool, I should like to pull your eyes out." Prisoner said she was guilty of one charge, but not the other. Mr Tyrwhitt committed the prisoner on both charges. John Elsham, a hatter, who gave a false address, was charged with attempting to steal the watch of a young man named Grey, in the Haymarket. Prosecutor was in the Haymarket on Saturday night, when some person insulted him and said he would give him a good hiding, The prosecutor said the person could do so if he was able, and while the altercation was going on the prisoner rushed up and made an attempt to seize the pro secutor's watch, but being seen by Sergeant Nathaniel Drascovich, of the A division, he seized him and took him to the Vine-street station. Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner at the request of the sergeant. WESTMINSTER. IMPUDENT ROBBERIES.—WiIIiam Audeum, a boy of 16, was charged as follows Ann Mayhew, of 14, Simmons-street, Chelsea, said that on Saturday, about 5 o'clock, the prisoner came to her house and asked the way to the Fulham-road. Witness directed him, and he left, but returned in five minutes and said he had forgotten his directions. Witness was directing him again, when he put his hand in her pocket and took out a sovereign. She called her son, and the prisoner, who ran away, was pursued and taken into custody. William Mayhew, son of the last witness, proved that while looking out of the window he heard his mother say, " I have lost my sovereign." He came down stairs and caught him, but he got away again, and was ultimately captured. Thomas Wait, 45 B, said that he saw the prisoner run ning along the King's-road, followed by a great mob. He ran into a shop, but was lost sight of, and again came to view in about five minutes. Witness caught him, and he said he was a respectable boy, and lived at 54, Brompton road. Witness took him to the station, and on searching him found one sovereign, two florins, one shilling, and 6d. in copper. Witness went to Brompton-road, but he was not known there. Sergeant Smith said there was another charge against the prisoner. Mrs Jane Thompson, 162, Brompton-road, said that pri soner came into her shop last Wednesday at half-past C, and after baygaining about a jug, left the shop. Three minutes afterwart9 witness missed half a sovereign and ten shillings in silver, with ...s? coppers. She could swear to him as being the man. Prisoner denied the charge of Thompson, and re fused any account of himself. He was remanded till Saturday. THAMES. FORBEARANCE AND BRUTALITY.—JOIM Harley, an Irish labourer, aged 30, of No. 7, Shorter's-rents, Dock street, Whitechapel, was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with violently assaulting and beating George Forster, a police-constable, No. 207 H. Last night the policeman found the prisoner quarrelling with a man in the neighbourhood of that frightful place, Rosemary-lane, which has not improved since the name has been changed to Royal Mint-street. Forster mildly interfered and requested the prisoner to go home. He bad mush trouble with him, but his, pacific efforts were ulti mately crowned with success, and the prisoner departed. The peace obtained by the constable was of short duration, for the prisoner returned and made another disturbance. He was about to strike the woman, when Forster again interfered and took the prisoner to the station-house. On his way there the prisoner struck the constable and attempted to trip bim up,, Notwithstanding this the con stable interceded with the inspector of police at Leman street station-house, and asked him to release the prisoner. His appeal was listened to favourably, and the inspector said, "Release him ; let him go out at the back door." The police constable was in the act of letting the prisoner out when he turned round and said, " You shall have it now," and struck at him right and left, and inflicted several heavy blows on his head and body. A fierce struggle took place, and the constable bawled out for help. The prisoner then grasped Forster by the neck and attempted to choke him. Other policemen who heard the noise rushed to the help of Forster and rescued him from the prisoner's grasp. The prisoner, in defence, said he had a " dhrop taken," and that was all about it. Mr, Partridge said the constable had acted with remark able and praiseworthy forbearance, and the prisoner had committed a very brutal and cowardly outrage upon him. Drunkenness was no excuse for these savage assaults on members of the police in the fair exercise of their duty He had not heard a worse case of the kind for some time. He sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned for two months and kept to hard labour, SHIPPING-THIS DAY. LONDON, May 2.—Wind this day at noon--South west; light breeze and fine. BY MAGNETIC TELEGRAPH.

The Chester meeting comes on to-morrow, and will last till Friday. The Mostyn Stakes will, in all likelihood, be carried off by Weatherglass, and the Chesterfield by Per.. suasion. The Wynnstay Handicap should be won by either King of Utopia or Donnybrook, and in the £lOO Plate Crytheia should have no difficulty in winning. Wednesday is the Chester Cup day. The field this year will be much larger than last, but scarcely the half will contest the race, as in 1832, when Joe Miller won it. The field will be made up from the following : PROBABLE STARTERS AND JOCKEYS, Age st. lb. • Oldminster .. 6 8 5 Challoner. Costa 5 8 2 H.

The latter is a b filly by Idle Boy out of Glensowrie, and the former a colt by Van Golan, out of Vacuna, by Idle Boy. A FRESH MAN, SPORTING INTELLIGENCE, TATTERSALL'S-SATURDAY. Although it was perfectly understood in all racing circles, and the announcement was made on the previous day, that Saturday would be devoted specially to settling on the New market Spring Meeting and comparing on Chester, the comparatively small muster at Hyde-park-corner this after noon led but to one conclusion—that both must have been left half one. Indeed, so trifling had been the amount of business done in the way of squaring accounts on New market, that several members were heard to say that Satur day settlings were a mere farce, and might as well be abo lished. Considerable irritation prevailed, especially among those members who met every demand made upon them, in full expectation of being able to recoup themselves as members or their agents dropped in. But, as has been said, many were disappointed. A few spasmodic attempts were made early in the afternoon at speculation on the Chester Cup, but some time elapsed before the tone of the market could be indicated. Accident had been made such a hot favourite in the City in the morning (where as little as 9 to 2 had been accepted about him) that all doubts seemed to be at an end as to the " Simon Pure" of Drewitt's stable. At the corner a slight reaction set in, which, however, was not of long duration, inasmuch as the currently offered odds of 6 to 1 on the field were taken towards the finish to several hundred pounds ; at the con clusion of business, however, those odds were obt a i na bl e . The "little game" carried on with the Hersey filly and Muezzin was a poser, and caused misgivings among their previous adherents, and although the former was backed for a little money singly, the pair were several times in quired after coupled, some two or three hundred pounds being invested at the latter odds. The Vacuna colt was a great " pot ," after having been put up at 20 to 1 he was supported at lessening prices until he left off at 12 to 1 (taken freely), and Greville and Veterinarian was consequently knocked right out of the betting. 15 to 1 was wanted about Bacchus, and at anything over 100 to 6 Oldminster would have found friends. A small commission in favour of My Mary was duly effected at 35 to 1 to £2O, and a request to back a rank outsider resulted in a long shot of 1,000 to 6 about Tommy Jones, who, however, improved his reputa tion slightly thereby, inasmuch as 1,000 to 10 only was offered when the room broke. Very little was done on tio Derby.
