Lodging Houses for the work ing classes, where a comfortable room can be rented at a moderate cost ; and by means of sx&ch combination. many appliances, necessary_ to cleanliness„ order, decency * and domestic convenience, are provided, which, for the same amount of money, could not else where be commanded. Unless habits of personal self-respect and care are cultivated, no religious influence can be brought effectively to bear upon the moral faculties of a man. If the divine scin tillation is embedded in filth and dirt, engender ing by such a condition a taste for low and degrading amusements and recreations, such only as gratify the pleasures of sense, there can, indeed, be but little encouragement to morality and virtue. Something has been laudably done in this respect for the labouring classes in this town by the Rev.

Mr. Griffiths, in Tali weekly circular, .says:--Thelron trade of Routh Staffordshire continueS'atieady, with little variation since our last report, most of the lesaling houses Being fully ooeusied, the demand for sheets, particularly thin sheets,- being unabated: The-principal houses are. likewise well off for orders ffir boiler plates.. On the other hand, the- demand for common bars has considerably fallen off; and the market for best Stafford shire-bars-is less active. The orders from the United States are- still- meagre, and by no means up to the , expectations which existed a month since; however, the orders in hand P - .4r rods for China have, in- no instance, been countermanded,: and T the general feeling now appears to be that - the. China trade. will not - be interrupted . . This being tire-fag end of` - the quarter,,and now on the heels of the preliminary meet ing whiell takes place , on Thursday next, it is natural that merchants should'withhold their• orders for iron,• until after the price is, fixed ; hence the , languor which prevall - s-to a moderate extent in every. department.. As we stated last week there is no prospeet of any change in the prig tof finished rron for next quarter. The meetings at Birmingham and Wolverhampton were tolerably- well attended; very littrehusiness done in.pigs ; the market flatter, and, for inferior qualities, .prices slightly easier: For first-rate hydrates and all mine 'brands the price is. firm;. and, where business has been done, late rates fully maintained. Of these latter qualities, the stocks are small in the hands of the makers, and on this account, together with the general run upon these brands by the manufac— tuzers, present rates will, no doubt, be fully reatiedatiths• ensuing quarterdhy. The official Est of prices of fluishea Iron is as follows :—Common Staffordshire. Bars, £l' 10s. at the works ; best Bars, £8 10s. ; Sheets, i 4, s; Doubles, £lO lOs. ; Nail Sheets, £8 10s. ; Latten, £22; Boiler Plates, £9 ; best and best best irk proportion ; common Roth, £7 los. ; Hoops, £8 10s. ;, Canada Plates, £l2 ;, and all other sorts in proportion.

ThZ shipments for the week were 9,208 tons against 11,426 tons during the same period of 1858, which shows a considerable fatting off for the week. Copper—The standard becomes more unsettled, with a decidedly downward tendency, buyers being shy of contracts, For English Copper the market is very languid, and _although both the market and the standardelearly indi cate a reduction in fixed rates, the smelters still refuse concession ; nevertheless, as we have repeatedly stated, smelters will speedily have to give way in price. Foreign is to be bought at lower prices. Tin—The market for English is steady, with a fair business doing ; stocks of Foreign increasing ; prices well maintained. Spelter has been sold at £2O ss. dur ing the week • stocks large, and a fair business h as b een done this week. Lead has been sold during the week at lower rates, nevertheless, smelters are firm holders at late prices. Tin Plates—Market flat ; price 6d,. to 9d, per box lower. NEWCASTLE CORN MARKET.--SEPT. 24.

LONDON, Saturday Evening In the English Steck Market there was little or no business done ; and, as a fact illustrative off• the general dulness, it may be mentioned, that up to the close of business, not a single transaction_ in Consols for the account was recorded officially.

The English Funds show undiminished firmness—. there was no fluctuation throughout the day. A further influx of gold to the Bank and an increase in the gene ral supply of money contributed to the prevailing steadiness. Notwithstanding the near approach to the end of the quarter, there is undiminished ease in the Discount Market, and considerable transactions take place at 2i per cent. At Hamburg the abundance of money is greater even than on this side, and bills can be discounted at 1 per cent.—Times. The Funds to-day were stationary in price, the trans actions being upon a scanty scale and devoid of interest, The Share Market was quiet, but prices were well sup ported. A rise in Mer,ican Bonds formed a principle feature of the day's business. There was a fair demand for money ; the general terms for the best paper cannot be quoted below 21 to 21 per cent. About £400,000 Australian and American gold reached London to-day ; £BB,OOO was sent into the Bank, and about £45,000 is taken for exportation : a further very large amount will remain here. The foreign exchanges this afternoon were generally firm : the rate on Hamburg has ad vanced, while that on St. Petersburg and Vienna has declined. At Vienna the exchange on London has de clined to 119 25, the political distrust having dimi nished.—Daily News. RAILWAY SHARE MARKET.

Yet those enduring conflicts of a human soul are laid up in the archives of eternity, while the world still prates about, and heaps up its panegyrics and raises its phantom glory upon, the vain and fleeting records of the other; and one man still seems to antici pate an apotheosis, and struts his hour upon the stage as though he filled the compass of creation, and were himself the second cause and delegated centre-point upon which it moves. It is the vast concerns summed up and represented by a hu man life which war in some way sets forth as its primary motive and final purpose, under the guise of national and territorial politics.
