Here is the difficulty ; and we do not know that
the fifth of November could be put to a bett ,r use
than that of setting us thinking how this knowledge
may form a part of everybody's education. Froth
time to time we, and many besides ourselves, have
expressed regret at the kind of teaching given in
the schools under Government inspection. It is
really melancholy to observers who know what
children want, and enjoy, and are able to do so, to
see the listleEsness with which boys and girls re-
ceive lessons on matters which cannot do much for
their minds, and do not touch their hearts at all.
Children who will all their lives have to fight the
battle of life, while they have only too little time
to prepare for it, may be found answering, by the
hour together, questions about the powers of the
adverb and the scope of the pronoun: Some sensible
observers, who have seen how the father wants his
boys during that hour to help him in the field, and
the mother her girls to be useful at home, have done
great good by not only advocating but instituting
instruction in common things—in the implements
and employments of every-day life, as life will be to
the pupils. This is excellent. Gardening, handi-
crafts, the economy of the soil and the house, are
better worth learning, for head and heart uses, than
an abstract study which involves even as much phi-
losophy as grammar when taught on the best prin-
ciples. But there is still something else which we
would fain teach and see taught, and for which
ample room is left by both grammar and common
things. We really wish that the educators of the
country would seriously consider whether some-
thing cannot be done in furtherance of it.
We are, ono and all, engaged in making history.
Every community is, of course, always making his-
tory by the mere process of living, moving, and
having its being ; but, as we need not explain,
those who witness and act in such a crisis as the
present are directly and eminently the builders up
of the great story. Every child in England knows
that we are at war, and has heard of Russia.
Everywhere the recruiting, or the bell-ringing and
flag-flying, the marching and embarkation of
troops, to say nothing of taik about trade and
prices, makes the most ignorant aware that some-
thing unusual is going on. Everywhere the know-
ledge of what is going on is spread among the
people, so that they know something of future
history. How much do they know of past history ?
If they are taught anything under that name, it is
something about Greece and Rome, with perhaps
some unconnected and half-conceived notions of
the England of a thousand years ago. How much
that has been told them under the same history has
ever touched their hearts ? Do they know even
why and how "Britannia rules the waves," and
how much is meant by the vow that "Britons
never shall be slaves ?" Do they know why it is
a great thing for us to have had a Queen Eliza
beth ? And have their hearts 'ever beat till they
forgot that they were at .school, under the excite-
ment of the approach and the scattering of the
Spanish Armada ? Let them by all means know
of the Gunpowder Treason, while made aware
of the struggles of the time in which it hap-
pened. Let them be thankful for the event,
and for the arrival of William M. ; and be
again absorbed in hearing the tales of te Stuart
invasions ; and of the perils and sufferings, and
happy issue of the last war. Let the citizen heart
and conscience be developed early in every child
in the realm, as every child will its share of duty
towards the realm, and ought to have the accom-

Here is the difficulty. Even in schools for the
children of the gentry the teaching of history is
difficult, from its connexion with opinions. Our
schoolboys have glowed and shivered over Ther-
inopylm and Marathon far more than over any
British fight whatever, from Hastings and Eves-
ham to Trafalgar and Waterloo. Young Greeks and
Romans were made patriots by being filled with

three centuries past? The task is difficult. Is it
hopeless ? Even if it were, we may at least teach
every young citizen the story of his own century,
and show him so much of the destinies of his
country
as may enlighten him in respect to his
duties towards it. And, while waiting for some
method of teaching the history of two centuries
ago, let us at least abstain from perpetuating the
hatreds of that time. If we must keep the fifth of
November in the churches and the streets, let it
be for the sake of congratulating the whole nation
on the arrival of the constitutional William 111.,
and not of insulting the feelings of Catholics by
railing at a murder plot to which we owe no liber-

Now a few wards al;oet Prince Stirbey, who is repre-
sented by all who see him as being very discouraged,
and as having given up all hope of being able much
longer to retain power. I told you in my last letter
that the Prince had been recently on a pilgrimage to
the monasterie-i of Little Wallachia. There he received
the news of the fall of Sebastopol. Certainly the news
did not raise his spirits, for it, was not of a very agree-
able nature; but as soon as he learnt the catastrophe, he
made haste to submit to the inhabitants for signature a
document attesting the excellence of his administration
and his good will towards the allies. He took care, at
the same time, that the wording of the document should
be such as not to injure him, whatever happened. He
took care, in fact, not to put in a single word unfavour-
able to Russia ; and at need it will be easy for him to
say that by "allies " he meant the Austrians. Another
affair, much more important and much more safe, which
the Prince has just managed, is the renewal of the sub-
prefects of the Principalities ; for each of them pays
from 200 to 1,000 Austrian ducats for his place, and
estimatier, each sub-prefcctura at the average of 500
ducats, the whole 95 sub-prefectures brought the Prince
in a few days a seem of some 47.500 ducats, or about
570 000 francs. But what becomes of all this money
which he screws out ,if the Principality ? The Prince

snaitaunaytions find credit, because one can imagine no other
epolsatefeor wthhicehg,
motive for which the representatves of the French go-
vernmeet and several members of the Divan exert their
influence to support a man like Prince Stirbey. I need
not remark how disgrac qul this state of things is ; for
though it has been always known that the Austrian di-
plomats and the greater part of the Pachas never refuse
anything that is offered them, nobody has hitherto
doubted the integrity of the French officials.
When the Prince returned to Bucharest he perceived
the bad effect of the ton openly hostile feelings towards
the Allied Powers which • were exhibited on the Fall of
Sebastopol by the Ministers of War and Foreign Affairs
—his son and step-son ; he therefora ordered the illumi-
nation of the city. But on the same day he ordered the
erasure from the Romanian journal, La Patrie, of 29
stanzas which referred to Russia, in an ode which the
fall of Sebastopol had suggested to the young poet To-
nese°.

One more proof of the solicitude of Prince Stirbey for
the country which he governs. He has just completed
the ministry by nominating Mr. Emanurl Baliano to the
department of the Interior. Mr. Baliano is an old man,
brought up in the school of the Fanar, consequently his
principle is to flatter all the world and always to serve
the strongest, whether be be Turk or Austrian. Further,
he has the honour of being considered the chief of those
old Boyards who dread the smallest reform, the least
improvement. I hope that the money which the Prince
has gained by the appointment of the new sub-prefects
and the nomination of Mr. Baliano will close the long
list of benefits which, during his administration, he has
conferred upon what he calls his dear country.—Daily

MANCHESTER, Nov. 2.—The improvement experienced
up to Tuesday last has been somewhat strengthened
since then. The question is, what does it amount to ?
During the most depressed days of this financial
pressure,there were keen-eyed capitalists at work, quietly
laying their hands upon the cheapest lots of goods and
yarns. This was done princ'pally by the India and China
merchants, but, to some extent, by other classes of buyers
also. Their purchases reached a very large aggregate
amount in the ten days immediately preceding the pre-
sent week. The market was relieved of stocks ; and, when
the expected further addition tl the rate of interest
did not take place on Thursday week, an increase of
firmness in price very naturally began to show itself.
Still, the buying went on at the previous ordinary
ranges of value, exceptionally low rates having, how-
ever, generally disappeared, or at least having become
comparatively rare. Hardening under these operations,
and stimulated by an upward movement of cotton at
Liverpool, the producers of yarns and goods took heart
on Tuesday last to raise their quotations, say ad. per
lb. in the middle and lower counts of the former,
and about id. per lb. in many descriptions of the latter,
being, if we take shirtings, about lid. per piece.
This advance gave a check to business. Buyers would
not accede to it ; and those parties only who would
accept the previous terms were able to make any
way. By previous terms we mean those of sellers,
not buyers. This was really a difference of id. per lb.
in favour of spinners, and I.d, per piece in favour of
manufacturers, who had not before been able to get
their prices for any quantities that told upon stocks.
That was the general state of things on Tuesday ; but
there were favourable exceptions, mainly 16's warps,
twist and weft cops about 32's and mule twist for
India, which commanded a positive advance of fully id.
per pound upon the current quotations. Since Tuesday
no actual progress has been made towards higher prices.
Producers are hardening in their terms, but buyers offer
a steady resistance ; and thus transactions are hindered.
LEICESTER. —The utmost caution is used by the manu-
facturers in making, and employment is getting more
difficult. This no doubt is partly owing to the worsted
spinners having lowered the price of yarns 1(1. per lb.
this week, and the mills working short time, though the
present price of wools will scarcely warrant it.—Leicester
✓ournal.

NOTTINGHA3I.—We have had unusual prosperity in
our trade during the present year, for the Russian war
does not seem to have made much impression on it, in
this town at least, but the unfortunate apparent diffi-
culties existing between the United States and this
country are throwing us back sadly ; but we still hope
this misunderstanding will terminate without recourse
to arms. The lace trade has suffered very much in con-
sequence, but the hosiery trade, in some branches, is
somewhat better, especially in coarse goods, worsted
drawers, and all under garments. Nottingham

WOOLLEN TRADE.

(From, the Leeds Mercury of Saturday.)

LEEDS, Nov. 2.—Sales during the present week have
not exceeded the current requirements of the manufac-
turers. Prices are quoted same as last week, but in
actual sales are rather in favour of the buyers.
BRADFORD, Nov. I.—There was not much business
transacted in our market to-day, all descriptions of wool
meeting with a very heavy inquiry, and prices of comb-
ing qualities remained as in the previous week, whilst
short wools could not be moved off, except at a reduc-
tion. The yarn trade was inactive. The winter trade
in the warehouses for pieces is just commencing, and
average sales have been made during the week, whilst
orders for the spring trade in the United States may
shortly be expected. Manufacturers cautiously work
merely to order, and as they gradually complete con-
tracts the looms are stopped.

HALIFAX, Nov. 2.—Since our last Friday's report of
the wool trade in this market, sales both of combing and
clothing descriptions have very slightly exceeded the
limited amount of busibess which bad then characterised
the week's operations ; what has been done has been
quite in a retail kind of way, to meet immediate re-
quirements.

AN HONEST CABMAN,—The fashion is to condemn all
cabdrivers as persons of worthless credit and character.
That the class scarcely deserve this sweeping censure is
satisfactorily proved by a case which occurred a few days
since. One of Messrs. Twinings' clerks hailed a Hansom
cab near the Bank of England, and having placed within
the vehicle a large quantity of coin, drove direct to the
Strand, where he himself superintended its removal into
the banking-house. The cabman drew off and went on
to the stand in St. Clement's-churchyard, whence he
was shortly hailed to take up in Norfolk-street. A
shower coming on, the driver took his macintosh out of
the cab, and in doing so found a heavy bag of coin,
which it instantly occurred to him must belong to Messrs.
Twininis. After depositing his Norfolk-street fare at a
railway station, the horest fellow drove back to the
Strand and handed his "treasure trove" over Messrs.
Twinings' counter. The bag, which contained 300 half
sovereigns, had been given up for lost, and the driver
was promptly rewarded with a 101. note—afterwards
increased to 201. for his honesty.
