In order to obviate the misconoepti' n of his views on the Sabbath question Mr. Thackeray harp issues the following declaration : " I am desirous that the people who work hard all the week should have the meausof relaxation, amuse ment and instruc i n upon their only day ( f rest. I would to this end open to them picture galleries, museums, scientific collections, and such places as the Cry s t a l P a l ace near London, where are to be found gardens and flowers, statues and pictures, and objects the most harmless and beautiful. I believe the labouring man would enjoy these sights in company with his family, and that the enjoy ment of them would keep him from intoxication, not lead him into is, as opponents of my views fear.

I would try to multiply the means of procuring peace and harmless pleasure for the people on that day, and know that in many theatrical pieces there are jests, and allusions, and situations ill-fitted indeed to any, but especially to the sacred day. I would consent to and encourage good band music, which has been played before our Sovereigns for a hundred years p st ; but would object to songs, for the same rea son th a t renders me averse to plays—because songs may be made vehicles fur jokes and buffoonery, which, on such a day, might justly shock the sense of religious persons.

We trust that this great success will stimulate her to fresh exertions, especi ally in the cla , ,sic school, - for which she seems to have particular ability: The incomparable soprano-col ralto, Madame Alboni, made her rentree on Tuesday, May 12, as Rosina, iu ' 11 Barbiere," supported by Herr Rei chardt, as Count Alinaviva ; Beaeventane, as Bar tolo ; Vialetti, a,s Basilio ; and Belletti, as Figaro. No singer in Europe could sing the music of Ros sini better than Madame Allnni, if as well ; and such another voice as In rs &ea not perhaps exist. We need not, however, describe its merits. Every musical amateur knows what an almost unexampled compass it has, how rich, beautiful, and -isochroma tic are all its tones—how wonderful the generally incompatible qualities of force and flexibility are united in it, and with what consummate skill she ap plies to artistic purposes the rare gif s which nature has so lavishly bestowed upon her. She was most enthusiastically received on her appearance in " Il Barbiere," and her subsequent delineation of Azucena in " -It Trovatore," though it c-mid add nothing to her fame as a veelalist, revealed his trionic abilities which she was not supposed previ ously to possess. Madame Alboni also re appeared (Tuesday, June 23) as Amino. in "La S nnambula," with all the great success of former years, and gained fresh laurels byher chaste and truly classical execution of selections . from Glusles immortal STATE OF TRADE.

Cloths, as well as yarns, are also in request for China, at full rates. The general or aggregate busines in cloth, however, is very limi'ei, and centinuecl proof of this is given in the fact that sellers can make no advance in prices approximating to the increasing cost of production. stocks are low, but prices cannot be made to keep pace with those of cotton.

CLOSE OF THE SEASON. (From the Morning Post.) " Orfeo," which Mr. Benedict introduced at his second morning concert. Signor Belletti, whose masterly singing might serve as a model to our rising vocalists, and who is one of the most accomplished disciples of a genuine s2hool of executive art now rapidly passing away; has nev, r perhaps acquitted himself more honour ably, or been more successful with the public than `during the season under notice. He appeared with Piccolomini as Sulpizio in "La Figlia, and subse quently played Giorgio in " I Puritani," Henry Ashton iu "Lucia," Belcore in " L'Elisir d'Amore, Figaro in " 11 Barbiere," and Leporello in "II Don Giovanni ;" and in each and every ope of these arduous characters (although in two instances he had great physical difficulties to contend with) tri umphantly exhibited these rare qualities to which we have endeavoured to do justice. Signor Beneventano, too, is entitled to our cor dial praise. As Giorgio Germont in "LA Traviata," Count di Luna in " 11 Trovatore," Riccardo in " I PurAani," he fully sustained his well-won reputa tion, and added to it very materially by his most admirable delineation of Don Giovanni, which was generally acknowledged to be the best seen on the Anglo-Italian stage since the palmy days of Tarn ' burini. The revival of " Nino" served to exhibit the vocal abilities of Mr. Charles Braham very ad vantageously, and to introduce to the London pub lic a very clever artist, Signor Corsi, in the character of the hero of that opera. Signor Corsi met with un equivoc d success, and at a later p-riod of the sea son contributed largely to the effect of " Den Gio vanni" by his most praiseworthy performance of the small but 142,h1y important part of Masetto. Signor Belay, a young tenor, also quite new to the London public, made a successful debut as Elvino in "La Sonnambula," and advanced himself still further in their estima tion by his excellent singing as Nemorino in "L'Eli4r d'Amore." Signor Sttechi Bottardi (another new tenor) was unable to d i himself jus on the occasion of his debut as Tonio in "La Figiia" in consequence of a terrible and unlooked for do mestic affliction—the almost sudden death of his wife ; but he subsequently appeared to greater ad vantage as Count Almaviva in "11 Barbiere," and proved himself to be a valuable acquisition to the company. Signor Bonetti's great ability as conductor of the orchestra has been strikingly exemplified throughout the season, and his masterly direction of the opera of operas, "II Don Gi•wanni," raised him higher in the estimation of all true connoisseurs than any of his previous efforts. In the ballet department we have to record the great success of those most accomplished artists Madame Rosati, Mesdlles. Marie Taglioni, Boschetti, PereaNenA, M. Charles, and those lesser, though still very bright, stars, Madlle. Katrine and Mdlle. Salvioni. Her Majesty's Theatre was reopened for the sea son of 1857 on Tuesday, April 14, with Dooizetti's "La Favorita," which served to introduce to the public three new candidates for.fanie in the persons of Mdlle. Spezia, gtnor Vialetti, and Signor Giug lini, who represented the characters of Leonora, Baldassare, and Fernando. The ballet on this oc crsion was "La Esmeralda," in which Mdlle. Caro lina Poccbini and Filipo Baratti likewise appeared for the first time in England. Mdlle Spezia had al ready met with g, eat success at La Scala, Milan ; La Fenice, Venice; Sau Carlos, Lisbon; and other first-class foreign theatres, where she performed the leading parts in most of the tragic operas belonging to the modern Italian school, and gained a special reputation as an executant of Verdi's music. The result of her London debut was felicitous, but still owing probably to nervousnes=, or the influence of a new climate, Mdlle. Spezia did not on herfirst night realise all that w.,s expected from her, or lead the public to anticipate the rare excellences which she subsequenVy displaye I. Dramatic sentiment of the best kind, a large and grand style of execution, and no small amount of vocal skill were recognised in her delineation of Leonora ; but the exhibition of these valuable qualities in all their force and beauty was reserved for future occasions. Madlle. Spezia achieved her first really great suc cess as Leonora in "It Trovatore," and this was quickly followed up and confirmed by her performances of Abigail in Verdi's "Nino," the chief part in Men delssohn's " Loral) , " (given at Mr. Benedict's first concert at her Majesty's Theatre), and Donna Anna in " II Don Giovanni." The copper-market, which it was hoped was more settled, is again disturbed by another expected reduction of price. These fluctuations operate in juriously upon ma n ufa,ct urers and factors. The former decline purchases of the raw material beyond imme diate necessity, and the country trade decline to give orders in prospect of a further fall in the prices of manufacture I articles. It is admitted, however, on all hands, that more business is doing in brass foundry- goods than during the spring months, and that prospects are hopeful rather than discouraging. The p itent ship's sheathing and seamless tubing manufactures are extremely active. The makers of tin wares continue to be moderately well engaged, but, as with other branches of local production, chiefly upon foreign orders. The military gun trade is quiet, if not absolutely flat, but the birding branch, as might be expected at this season of the year, is extraordinarily active. There are large orders in hand for edged tools required for the South American and West Indian markets. For generrl ironmongery factors' travellers report the demand to be improving. In the agricultural counties more particularly business is more active, and all descriptions of implements find a ready sale. El COMPLETION OF THOMAS RAIKES'S JOURNAL.

I cannot believe that pecuniary support will be delayed from the mere technical difliculty:.that the Government in times past has not lent its credit to private enterprise, or that the fear of establishing a possibly troubleeon3e precedent will be suffered to prevail in such a peculiar cae as this. "I have before observed that the Euphrates Railway is unique, and therefore never can with any show of reason be taken al a precedent. But, admitting that it could, the departure of Government from traditional usage would demonstrate one of two things—either that it was right or wrong. If right, who would say it way wrong to Lllow what practice had proved to be benefi cial ? If wrong, he would be a bold man to cite a mis take as a precedent.

A conservative contemporary opposes Mr. Thackeray's return to Parliament, on the ground that he has published novels. The objection comes with a bad grace from the recognised organ of -a party whose most prominFnt leaders in the House of Commons are Mr. Disraeli and Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton. It is strange that men will be so scrupulous in demanding proof that a distinguished man of letters has direct .el his attention to politics, who will without previous question supp art the claims to a seat in Parliament of any successful rail way speculator, however illiterate, or any scion of aristocracy, however imbeiile, who is put forward as the candidate of their party. The qualifications which his opponents affect to desiderate in Mr Thacke ray, are the qualifications required, not iu a mem ber of Parliament, but in a member of Administra tion. In this country it is impossible to discover whether a man possesses the talents and acquire ments requisite for administrative office, except from his career in Parliament; but a man may make a very useful member of Parliament, and yet be unfit to be a Minister. An immense majority of the members of Parliament are of necessity doomed to he, not administrators, but critics of administrators. To the task of criticising and controlling Ministers a man need only bring such a general knowledge of public affairs as our social habits instil into every educated gentleman, natural shrewdness and com- j mon sense, a deep sense of the responsibilities he undertakes, and high principle. All these qualifica tions are combined in an eminent degree in Mr. Thackeray. He will represent the scholars of Eng land, as Mr. S. Wortley used to represent the coun try gentlemen, and Mr. Wilberforce the enruestly religious. The utility of these two gentlemen in Par liament was entirely independent of any administra tive talent they might possess, and so will be the utility of Mr. Thackeray. He will carry into the House of Commons the opinions and sympathies of an important section of society, whose influence has hitherto been too little felt within the walls of that House. On the contrary, the election of Mr. Cardwell would only add to the number of second or third rate administrators, with whom the House of Commons is already amply supplied. We could be content to peril the result of the Oxford election upon this issue. There is, however, one incident of the canvass to which we would invite the atten tion of the electors. A meeting of Nonconformists has addressed four questions to the candidates. Mr. Thackeray replies to all of them by an honest straightforward yes. Mr. Cardwell replies by boasting of the liberality he has shown on former occasions, but evades a direct answer to any of them. Mr. Thackeray tells frankly what his in tentions are, though he knows that what pleases some must necessarily displease others. Mr. Cardwell shirks a straightforward answer, partly to avoid displeasing anybody, partly to reserve to himself the power to pursue the course most con ducive to his own interests.

There is a fair inquiry for cotton qniltings. For first-class goods a fair price is given, while for some articles the price offered is anything but re munerative. In most branches of the trade there is not much doing ; July, however, is usually a flat month.

" ' By means of this railway taken in conjunction with the system of steam transit now being established along the valley of the Indus from Lahrre to the sea at Kur rachee,* the large f. rce stationed in the Punjaub would be rendered of incalculable importance by steamers unit ing the line of the Indus with that of the Euphrates, for in that case any hostile force advancing towards the In dus would not only be met on the Tins of that river, but be threatened along the seaboard of the Persian Gulf and the line of the Euphrates in flank and rear.

Its perusal is Particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their phys cal condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled, It Is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are Principles of personal management which cannot be violated with out incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc ceed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may he removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and, above all, that there is scarcely any degree of ph} sic it infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

" 8. The harbour has been surveyed by Sirs). M'Neill, with the assistance of the officers of her Moj lsty's ship Stromboli. Plans of the proposed works have been already submitted to the First Lord of the Admiralty, and they are now forwarded for your Lordship's inspec tion. "`9. There being no harbour on the coast of Syria better than the open roadsteads of Beyrout, Jaffa, Tri poli, and Acre, or the pestilential harbour of Alexan dretta, the importance of having a safe and commodious harbour will be apparent for political as well as com mercial purposes. " 'lO. This harbour, connected by means of the rail way with Bussorah at the head of the Persian Gulf, woull give to England the first strategical position in the world. " 11. The resources of England being male promptly available on any emergency in the East, Chatham and Southampton would become the basi3 of operations in stead of Kurrachee or Bombay, and would enable this country to anticipate or repel, whether in Europe or Asia, any attack with the rapidity and advantages of an irresi , tible force. _ " emergency in India, troops (from Eng land) could be I..nded at Kurrachee in three weeks, and in another week at Lahore, by steam transit. '" 13. The Euphrates Valley Railway, in addition to its poltica.l advantages, would powerfully promote the commerce and civilization of the world at large, and that the commercial and manufacturing communities concur in these sentiments has been shown by the ad dresses lately submitted to your I)rdship. They are quite alive to the importance of obtaining cotton, wool, sugar, indigo, and other products from India and Meso pr,tamia, and the producti(in, being effected by free " b °ur, would of necessity tend to the e xiinction of slavery. " Through the zealous ex trtions of Major-Gene ral Chesney, aided by the advice and powerful support of Viscount Stratford do ltedcliffe, a concession was granted by the Turkish Government in the early part of this year, guaranteeing a minimum rate of interest of 6 per cent. on the capital required fir the first section from the Mediterranean to the Euphrates, besides affording other privileges. "` 15. But as these terms, from the state of the money-market and other causes, have neither been, nor are likely to be, sufficiently attractive to induce the British capitalist to embark his money in a distant enter prise, the deputation of which I had the honour of being a member, waited upon your lordship with the view of impressing upon your attentiou the absolute necessity of the pecuniary support of her Majesty's Government being ex . ,ended to the undertaking, in the event of the Govern ment concurring in the opinion expressed by the deputa tion that the Euphrates Valley Railway was a work of great national importance. " 16. It was most satisfactory to the deputation to have from your lordship the assurance that her Majesty's Government entirely concurred with the deputation as to the great importance to this country of connecting Eng land and India by the Euphrates Valley route, and that it would c tntinue to receive the countenance and fur therance of Government. " 17. The financisl support required from her Ma jesty's Government is a counter guarantee of 5 per cent. for 25 years, or 41 per cent, for 50 years, on the capital of 1,400,0001. for the first section. The responsibility in curred by the Government in granting this assistance, would, it is believed, be merely nominal, and could only accrue in the event of two cintingencies—the railway not paying a moderate dividend, and the Turkish Go vernment failing to fulfil its part of the contract. " 18, Only under the above circumstances could her Majesty's Government be called upon to make any con tribution, and it will be seen by reference to Sir John M'lsTeill's report that the existing traffic upon that por tion of the route of the proposed railway is sufficient, in his judgment, to yield a dividend of 8 per cent. on the capital required. in. The East Indian Company might fairly be ex pectad to share the responsibility of the counter guaran tee in the same way as they have already contributed to the subsidy to the European and Indian Junction Tele graph Company, as the establishment of the proposed route appears to be of vital importance for securing the possession of India. go e , , , d , g 2 o o v . e , r r n h m e e e n x t peaceabl e and perienced and distinguished gentlemen with whom I had the honour of being associated in wait ing upon your lordship on the 22d inst. are well aware that the question of the Government guaranteeing inte rest on an industrial undertaking is not free from diffi culty, and this difficulty would be increased if, on the present occasion, the granting of the guarantee might hereafter be quo!ed as a precedent for similar demands. i« 21, The pecuniary support of Government is on the present occasion sought not on industrial or commer cial considerations, but on account of the political im portance of the railway to the empire at large ; and it is ; to be remembered that whatever assistance the Govern ment may render to the Euphrates Valley Railway ca' * Kurrachee is not only theportof the Indus and Central Asia, but from its geographical position and other advan tages appears destined to become, if not tho future metropo lis of India , m ost certainly the second city an d th e E uro . pire. pima port that em Signor Giuglini made at once an immense hit as Fernando in " La Favorite." Less embarrassed than his fair companion, after the first few notes of his part., ho was enabled to display his wonderful powers to the best advantage, and convince the audience in the very first scene of the opera that a t r h ea e. ll c y ur g t r a e i a n t fi s n in a g li e y r fe w ll as ui l ) ) o e n fo o r n e e t o h f e t tu h . e a v t e r d s e a ksc gHeeeatepalteaasnedd e e i v a e ot d nu en within ina f npa o ec u Ntv r : jsmei pas sion, sl judgment, h ti e m a t a r . e e triumphs a n Tdiiesterling more and more as the performance proceeded, and recollec ion on the time-honoured stage of her Ma gr ee Italian tenor, with a fresh and beautiful voice, as who could be ranked with the very few really great ones that we already possessed, was found at last. Many had been tried with more or less success, but still the certain " few" who were and are not with Mr. Lumley remained the best of the beat until the advent of Signor Giuglini, who, take him for all in all, is certainly second to none in existence, and whose transcendent abilities are sufficient in them selves to establish a perfect " balance of power" with respect to the tenor department of our Italian operas. Signor Giuglini subsequently appeared as Alfredo in " La Traviata ;" Arturo in "Puritani ;" Edgardo in " Lucia di Lammermoor ;" Maurice in " 1l Trovatore ;" and Don Ottavio in " Il Don Gio vanni," besides performing at Mr. Benedict's con certs, and in scenes from " Il Pinata" and "I Mar tini," on his own benefit night, when he strikingly exhibited his extraordinary powers of endurance by appearing in no less than five different characters without betraying any signs of fatigue. Signor Vialetti, the other debutant on the open ing night, impressed the audience very favourably. His noble voice (a deep bass) gave due effect to the heavy and pompous music of Baldassare, whilst his acting was honourably distinguished by character istic dignity, breadth of manner, and unfla g ging earnestness. He was i mme ifstely recognised as a genuine and extremely valuable artist ; and his subsequent admirable delineations of Fernando, in 64 Il Trovatore," Orastaphe, i n " Nino," and the Cotumendatore, in " Il Don Giovanni," raised him still higher in public estimation. In the charming ballet of 46 La Esmeralda," Madlle. Carolina POcchini danced herself into the good graces of the habitues, and g ained in one night a reputation which subsequent efforts tended rather to increase than to diminish. The peculiar light ness and vivacity of her movements, the extraor dinary suppleness of her limbs, the perfect origi nality of tier steps and attitudes, excited general admiration, and nightly elicited applause of the warmest kind. It was no small matter to succeed so well in " La Esmeralda," with Carlotta thisi still fresh in the memory of the public, and yet Pocchini never failed ta obtain an encore for " La, Truandaize," and was equally fortunate in " her exe tion of anosher dance ca ll e d " Zin o at Signor Baratti likewise made a successful debut in " Es meralda," and the same ballet also served to intro duce to our notice those clever and accomplished danseuses Mesdlles. Rolla, Pasquali, Morlacchi, Brunetti, and Karliski, whose agile and picturesque execution of a new pas de 6111 was greatly and jus•ly admired. Atter three consecutive representations of " La Favorite" with " La Esmeralda," Madlle. Piccolomini, with Signor Belleti, and Signor Stecchi Bottardi (a new tenor), appeared on Tues day, April 21, as Maria, Sulpizio, and Tonio, in "La Figlia del Reggimento." Madlle. Piccolomini met with a perfectly overwhelming reception, and her general performance proved that she had gained in physical power and strictly musical skill since last year, whilst her acting as the lighthearted vivan diere was vivacious, impulsive, natural, and sym pathetic as ever. The house was crowded to wel come the return of the " little pet"—the " cara bambino," as she has been affectionately termed ; but a still greater concourse was drawn together by the performance of " La Traviata" on the follow ing Thursday, with Piccolomini, Beneventano, and Giuglini (the latter for the first time), in the char acters of Violetta, Giorgio, and Alfredo. The ab surd attacks which have been made upon the libretto of this opera, combined with the enormous attractions of the cast, would more than account for the densely crowded state of the house on this occasion. It was literally " chokefull," as the phrase goes. The last scene again drew forth the tears and praises of the audience ; , and the gifted little heroine of the drama received, as on former tn Traviata" nights, no end of ovations. This opera was repeated on the succeeding Thursday and Sa turday, April 23 and 25 : on Thursday and Friday, April 30 and May 1, followed each night by " La Esmeralda ;" and on Thursday, May 7, Madlle. Piccolomini appeared' for the first time, and with triumphant success, as Lucia. This was considered in many respects her greatest performance, and it certainly was, to say the least, a worthy companion picture to her Traviata. , Her acti ng t h roug h ou t th e so-called "madscene ' wastranscendantly fine. After several consecutive repetitions of Lucia, Mdlle. Pic colomini reappeared at intervals in "La Figlia" and "La Traviata" with undiminished attraction and effect, and on Thursday, June 11, she essayed for the first time the character of. Zerlina, in " Il Don Giovanni," and with most triumphant success. Madlle. Piccolomini'srenderings o f "La ci Darern," " Batti Ba ti," a',d. "Vedrai Caritio" may be ranked amongst her greatest inspiratioes. Her Zerlina, in deed, was quite a dramatic creation. Unlike any other version of that part we had previously seen, it was truthful in conception and artistic in execu tien as it was fresh iu feeling and original in man ner. On Tuesday, the 28th of April, there was ano ther important debut—that of Madlle. Ortolani, as Elvira, I Puritani This young lady, although evidently suffering to a painful degree from trepi dation, managed to acquit herself, on the whole, honourably, and met with unequivocal success. "I Puritani' was r epeated several times at intervals, and the fair debutante rose gradually in public fa - your until the production of " Dori Giovanni," I when, by her really admirable delineation of the somewhat ungrateful character of Donna Elvira, she took a veritable pas de geant, and won the un qualified approbation of the connoisseurs, most of In conclusion, we may call attention to the rare merits of the gentleman who not only set all this complicated machinery of a vast establishment in motion, and applied it to the best purposes of art, but who also discovered its capabilities. With zeal and energy a man of average ability and long experience may easily fulfil the routine duties of theatrical management ; but he who displays what we will term creative powers may be truly said to possess the genius of direction. The public must have confidence in such a man under any circumstances. He may have reverses—mis fortunes "enough to bear a royal merchant down"— but so long as he shows any signs of vitality the public will believe in his resuscitation, if not in his ultimate triumph. Such a person is Mr. Lumley, the manager of her Majesty's Theatre. Twice has he been left without a company, and twice has ho contrived to " create a soul under the ribs of death," to defy augury, and reconstruct one of the greatest lyrical institutions in the world upon what most people would consider the very slender and treacherous foundations of hope, faith, and confi dence in his own indomitable courage and unflag ging energy. Marietta Piccolotnini and Giuglini, two of the greatest arti s t s i n ex i s t ence, may b e con sidered in a certain sense, and, with reference t 3 the London public, to be creations of Mr. Lumley, as was Jenny Lind in former years ; and, in fact, the greater portion of the company, whose attrac tions have filled his gi gan tic th ea tre night after night during the last two seasons, were artists scattered about Europe ( so me of them in compara tive obscurity) whose great merits none but a manager of extraordinary vigilance would have be come cognisant of ; people who required all the efforts of the most delicate and pet severing diplo macy to bring them together, and upon the chances of whose success with a difficult public nothing less that a most enterprising spirit would have staked the vital interests of a great establishment. It is no wonder, then, that Mr. Lumley, after all his recent glorious successes, was called for enthusias tically on Saturday night last, which brought one of the most brilliant E eisons ever known at her Majesty's Theatre to a worthy close. The popular director merely walked across the stage, bowing his acknowledgments, and made no speech, as many people imagined he would. We have now only spa ce t o say t h a t t h e regu lar season termi nated with a very fine performance of " La Tra viata," and a new ballet-divertissement, in which the fascinating Marie Taglioni appeared to great advantage. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge, accompanied by her Royal Highness the Princess Mary, honoured the performance with their pre sence. Their Royal Highnesses were attended by Major Home Pur ves and Lady Geraldine Somerset.

THE CONDEMNED CONVICTS IN Esssx•—•The Sheriff has fixed the 23d instant for the execution of Crawley, and the 29th for that of Finch. It was desired that both executions should take place on the same day, but the official authorities found this arrangement could not b e ma de. Crawley continues in the same indifferent state as when upon his trial, and has not made any con fession of his guilt. He has since Friday been visited by the sheriff, his eons, and the Rev. J. Last, the Catholic priebt.-04amsford Chronicle. In hosiery there is a little more doing ; trade, however, still continues quiet in most branches, and manufacturers are wisely abstaining from accumu lating stocks. Hosiery, silks, and yarns are without alteration. LEICESTER, JULY 18. There is an improvement in the hosiery trade, manufacturers for the most part giving out more work. In the fancy department there is a decided change for the better, still the high price of mate rial will prevent manufacturers making extra stock. There is not much change in trade at Loughborough or Hinckley. Wools are realising very high prices. At Brackley ftir the price averaged was 425. per tod, being 6s. higher than last year, and all the wool was disposed of with the exception of two small lots. Worsted yarns are advancing, but as manufac turers have still some stocks on hand, sales will not be effected at the advance until those stocks are cleared. _ _ LEEDS, JULY 18. The woollen trade has been rather quiet this week, both in the warehouse and the pub lic markets. There appears to be a lull in both the home and the export trade, and purchases are made chiefly to make up stocks, or where anything good and cheap for the fall trade is offered. The manufactures continue to be moderately well employed, and the stocks in hand are only of an average character for the 'sea son, so that, with the present prospect of an early and abundant harvest, a good trade for the close of the year is anticipated To-day's market has pre sented no feature of material change. The attend ance of buyers was of an average character, and they bought in the aggregate a good bulk of the h.avier kinds of cloth for the winter trade, being stimulated thereto, in some degree, by the prospect of an increase in price, both wool and indigo having advanced at the current sales in the metropolis. The home growers of wool seem disposed to have the very highest current prices, and are holding off selling rather than take less. Hence transactions in Yorkshire wools have not been very numerous or to a large amount this week. Foreign and colo nial kinds, it is hardly necessary to say, are held very firmly by the dealers. HALIFAX, JULY 18. _ _ The worsted and carpet trades are enjoying a fair amount of prosperity, but neither of them is actually brisk. The demand is more steady and regular than in some past years, so that there is lees fluctuation and less ground for speculative hope or fear. The great bulk of the manufacturing opera tives are in work, but not wholly on full time. To day's market has been fully as active as that of last Saturday, and a good deal of yarns and pieces has been sold. Rather less done in wool, and prices without alteration. DUBLIN, JULY 18. The Customs' receipts for the week to Thursday, July 16, inclusive, were 18,7261. against 19,726/. last week. BELFAST, JULY 18. Linen.—We cannot notice any material altera tion in any branch of the linea trade this week, either in supply or demand. Linen yarn unaltered. Flax.—Owing to the large quantities of Baltic flax arriving in our port for the la'tt fortnight, the coarse qualities of both hand and mill scutched flax have been neglected, and prices are now in favour of buyers ; dealers are glad to get rid of any stock they have on hand at less rates than they would have accepted 14 days ago. Cotton.—We have no change to report in the sale of muslins in Belfast. The quantity of goods at present made in the country districts is still much under the mark, and as yet there is little sign of greater actiou. In the yarn trade no change whatever has taken place ; all high counts sell at the rates of last month, those of the numbers ex ceeding 120's twist are firmer, and if Sea Island and Egyptian wools range at the high figures noted for some time past spinners will be obliged to put o n additional prices. FOR the SEA SIDE.—TRAVELLING SUITS, with Cap, complete, 2/. IBs to Three Guineas ; the Beaufort Coat, '2l. 103. ; the new summer Trousers, One Guinea ; Baden Waistcoats, Two for One Guinea.

In the latter part of last year a dispute occurred at Holt, Norfolk, in regard to the conviction of certain labourers by the local magistrates for tak ing rabbits from a common near the town. The .Norfolk News commented rather sharply on the conduct of the magistrates, of whom Lord Hastings was one ; and on the day the first article appeared on the subject his lordship proc•.eded to the res deuce of the editor, Mr. J. H. Tillett, of Norwich, and had a warm personal altercation with him. Proceedings were commenced against the noble lord for endeavouring to induce Mr. Tillett to fight a duel, and it was expected that the matter would have been investigated at the approaching Norfolk assizes. A day or two since, however , Lieut.-Col. Astley had an interview with Mr. Tillett on the s t , h a e n d c o t n h v e e f r o s l a l following n i ng w ‘ h ‘ minutes" ic h took place l a ea r rc t ee o drawn d H u a p s t o i n f g 'Col. Astleystated that Lord Hastings had autho rised him to say that his lordship had no intention of sending a threatening or offensive message to Mr. Tillett, mentioned in the Norfolk News, of the 29th November last, and that his lordship having had no such intention felt that the article of the 29th of November last, was an unjustifiable attack upon him, which led to the warmth exhibited by his lordship in his interview with Mr. Tillett on that day, for which his lordship expresses regret ; and his lordship withdraws the offensive expressions on that occasion applied to Mr. Tillett ; Mr. Tillett, upon his lordship's disavowal, withdraws any re marks offensive to his lordship in the article above allude' to, and expresses his regret that any un pleasantness should have arisen between Lord Has tings and himself."
