STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, July 31.—The market bas been unus-
ually flat and gloomy. The telegraphed accounts from
Trieste in anticipation of the overland mail state that
there had been no change there, prices remaining the
same as at last advices, with considerable business doing.
From China the advices are, that nothing was doing in
manufactures, while a larger quantity of tea was coming
forward, but less silk. These advices appeared to pro-
duce no effect on business here. Sellers say that they do
not recollect a much duller market, but prices were
mostly firm for cloth. Some few sales which were pressed
were at lower prices. The same absence of demand was
reported in the yarn-market, and the business done was
inconsiderable. Prices, however, were moderately steady.
The report of Messrs. John Slagg and Co. of the
cloth-market says :
"The demand for goods has been exceedingly inani-
mate throughout the past week, and the business done
has been quite insignificant in amount. To-day there is
even less disposition on the part of buyers to operate,
but, for the reasons given in our last report, there is no
anxiety to sell, and consequently no change in prices.

HOUSE OF COMMONS-(YESTERDAY.)

The SPEAKER took the chair shortly after 12 o'clock.
The Lords' Amendments to the Londrn and South
Western Railway Bill were considered and agreed to.

THE SUNDAY BEER ACT.

Mr. MASSEY presented several petitions from various
pats of the metropolis, praying for a modification of the
Sunday Beer Act of last session.
TRANSMISSION OF NEWSPAPERS TO THE

COLONIES.
On the order of the day for the house going into com-
mittee of supply,
Mr. F. SCULLY called attention to the tax of one
penny lately. imposed on the transmission of newspapers
to the colonies, which be said was a great inconvenience,
especially to the humbler classes.
Mr. WILSONsaid, abouttwo years ago a circular was
addressed to the colonies by the Treasury, offering to re-
postage of letters to 6d., and put a stamp duty of
newspapers, which was gladly acceded to by all
re-
duce
the colonies with one or two exceptions. He hoped,
.ceonthe
however, some further arrangements might be effected,
and the matter should be considered.
After a few remarks from Mr. Thornely,
M'Mahon, and Mr. A!cock, the subject dropped.

COMMISSARIAT EXPENSES.
Mr. LABOUCHERE drew attention to the want of
control on the part of the house over the very large sums
London, England, 1855-08-01

these words, principally for the reasons he had stated in
answer to the amendment of Sir W. Cubitt.
After a brief discussion the addition was negatived,
and the clause iv; amended was agreed to.
Cuusles 10 to 17 (the last), as amended, were agreed
to without opposition.
Mr. FREWEN moved an additional clause to the
following effect : —That from and after the passing of
this act the provisions of the said recited acts (1 and 2
Victoria cap. 106, and 13 and 14 Victoria cap. (98),
so far as relates to the Union of Benefices
(except as is herein otherwise provided), shall only
extend and be applicable to and for the union of two
benefices, or one benefice and one spiritual sinecure,
rectory, or vicarage, the aggregate yearly value of which
does not exceed 6001., and the churches (or if there are
more than two, then the churches which are the fur-
thest from each other) shall be within three miles of
one another by the nearest load : Provided always,
that nothing herein contained shall be construed to alter
the provisions of the twenty-sixth section of the recited
act, 1 and 2 Vict. cap. 106, for annexing isolated places
to the contiguous parishes, or making them separate
benefices."

After a short discussion, the clause was negatived
without a division.

The bill was then reported, and the house resumed.
MERCHANT SHIPPING BILL.

The Lords' amendments to this bill were considered
and agreed to.

CROWN SUITS BILL.

The Lords' amendments to this bill were also con-
sidered and agreed to.
SUPPLY.

On the report of the Committee of Supply being
brought up,
Mr. OTWAY proposed that the vote for the National
Gallery be reduced by the sum of 1,4551., which was
made up of two item,, viz., 3001. for a travelling agent,
and 1,1551. for incidental travelling expenses. He con
tended that these expenses were not only unnecessary,
inasmuch as there were ministers at the different conti-
nental cities who could convey the requisite informati,:n
as to sales of valuable collections of pictures. He
also objected that the gentleman employed as travelling
agent was a German, and not an English artist.
Mr. WILSON, in reply, maintained that it was
impossible our consuls could know of every sale of
paintings in remote localities on the continent ; and
contended it was essential that a gentleman fully con-
versant with the arts should be continually travelling
for that purpose abroad. He therefore hoped that no
real opposition to the vote would be offered.

After some further conversation,
The house divided, when the numbers were—
For the vote 45
Against it
Majority —7
The vote was accordingly agreed to.
The report was then agreed to.

character to cause uneasiness.

Fortunately the description of interests involved
in the question, and the motives to the opposition,
are perceived by the House and the country, and
will be withstood. Lord PALMERSTON'S spirited
declaration of his intention to contend against
them is perhaps justly deemed the most popular
speech which he has made this session.
London, England, 1855-08-01

CARLISLE CANONRIES BILL.

On the order of the day for the house going into
committee on this bill,

Mr. R. PHILLIMORE expressed a hope that the
house would not go into committee on this bill on this
the first of August, and at this period of the session.
He moved, as an amendment, that the house go into
committee on the bill this day three months.
Lord J. MANNERS seconded the amendment.

Mr. FERGUSON opposed the amendment.
The Marquis of BLANDFORD said be believed the
Ecclesiastical Commissioners had not paid sufficient at-
tention to local wants—(bear)—but he was opposed to
the principle of the bill now before the house ; and he
should recommend the hon. member (Mr. Ferguson) not
to press his bill now, promising that on another occasion
he should be moFI ready to give him every assistance to
procure aid for local wants.
Mr. FREWEN said, though he had voted for the
second reading of the bill, he believed it could not pass
into law this session, and therefore he hoped the hon.
member would not press it at present.
Mr. T. CHAMBERS hoped the hon. member for
Carlisle (Mr. Ferguson) would persevere with his bill,
for no argument had been shown against it.
Sir W. HEATHCOTE expressed a hope that the
honourable member for Carlisle would not take up
the time of the house in further discussing a measure
which could not possibly pass into law this session.
Mr. COWPER and Sir J. PAKINGTON also hoped
the hon. member would not take up the time of the
house in a debate which at present could lead to no
practical result.
After a few words from Mr. HADFIELD and Mr. FITZ-
ROY, the latter honourable member proposing that this
debate be now adjourned,
A division took place, when the numbers were—
For adjourning the debate.....

Majority against —ls

The house then went into committee, when

Mr. FERGUSON said, having now affirmed the
principle of the bill, be should move that the chairman
do now leave the chair.

Mr. R. PHIL LIMORE said this was not a seemly
proceeding, when the hon. member for Carlisle ,had
divided the house, that he should then move to with-
draw his bill.

After a few words from Lord J. MANNERS the bill
was withdrawn.

UNION OF CONTIGUOUS BENEFICES BILL.
The house resolved itself into committee on this bill.

The Marquis of BLANDFORD then moved the
amendment of which be bad given notice, that all refe-
rence to the Church Building Commissioners should be
omitted throughout the bill.
Sir J. PAKINGTON supported the amendment.
The Marquis of BLANDFORD felt bound to say
that on moving this amendment he did so under the
best advice.

.......,.M
r. PELLA.TT opposed the amendment, and trusted
that the house would not proceed further with the bill.
He would, therefore, move the Chairman should report
progress, in order that the bill should be postponed to
next session.

Sir G. GREY opposed the amendment of the hon.
member for Southwark.
After some discussion the committee divided, when
there appeared—

THE LATE DISTURBANCES IN HYDE-

PARK.

CONCLUSION OF THE INQUIRY INTO THE
CONDUCT OF THE FOLICE.—(THIS DAY.)
The Commissioners took their seats this morning
shortly after 11 o'clock.

Superintendent Tarlton, of the T division, has been
19 years in the force, and superintendent since March.
He was in the park about five o'clock. He deposed to
the large concourse of persons assembled near the re-
ceiving-house, and their turbulent conduct. He saw a
boy brought into the yard with his head cut. The boy
said it was dons with a stone.

Mr. A. A. Hansard, a literary man, of Bristol, was in
the park or. the Ist July from about two to seven o'clock.
Ho went near the elm tree by the dairy, in the branches
of which a number of men and boys had stationed them-
selves, making a great noise. A policeman ascended
the tree to drive them off, but, as he ascended, the
higher they went up, at last descending through the
hollow of the tree, the policeman after them, where he
succeeded in capturing a few of them. He, however,
sent them about their business without ill-using them.
Witness characterised the mob as exceedingly turbo•
lent and spiteful against the police, and their conduct
in hooting and yelling at carriages as they passed
along the drive as brutal and un-English. The police
acted with forbearance, notwithstanding which the popu-
lace knocked off their bats, jostled them, and he saw at
one time half a dozen policemen's hats kicked about like
footballs.

3TRUTT, is, forsooth, that such rivals will fail. In '
the political inquiry of Mr. M'CuLLoar, such
concerns only are worthy of privilege which make
great fortunes, large houses, and peerages. But
the system of Joint-Stock Companies which di-
' vides masses of profit amongst the many only
makes small men, such as Mr. GILBART,
the manager of the London and West-
minster Bank, with an insignificant salary of
one or two thousand a year, instead of mil-
lionnaires capable of giving large receptions. A
joint-stock system of banking, with unlimited
liability, which weakens responsibility for good
management by diffusing it over a number of
Directors with co-equal powers, may not in the
view of the larger individual capitalist be so
difficult to cope with, and may not be so very
objectionable in principle ; but a system of

limited liability, which takes the scattered.
portions of responsibility from a number
of Directors, and concentrates it all
upon the Manager-gerant, which upon col-
lective means gives unity of manage-
ment and comparative unity of responsibility
—that is one which gentlemen who have little

faith in board management may join, and it is
one which is indeed, in the view of large capi-
talists, dangerous to the State, and to be resisted

STATE OP TRADE.

MANCHESTER, July 31.—The market has been unus-
ually flat and gloomy. The telegraphed accounts from
Trieste in anticipation of the overland mail state that
there had been no change there, prices remaining the
same as at last advices, with considerable business doing.
From China the advices are, that nothing was doing in
manufactures, while a larger quantity of tea was coming
forward, but less silk. These advices appeared to pro-
duce no effect on business here. Sellers say that they do
not recollect a much duller market, but prices were
mostly firm for cloth. Some few sales which were pressed
were at lower prices. The same absence of demand was
reported in the yarn-market, and the business done was
inconsiderable. Prices, however, were moderately steady.
The report of Messrs. John Slagg and Co. of the
cloth-market says :
" The demand for goods has been exceedingly inani-
mate throughout the past week, and the business done
has been quite insignificant in amount. To-day there is
even less disposition on the part of buyers to operate,
but, for the reasons given in our last report, there is no
anxiety to sell, and consequently no change in prices."
Messrs. John Pender and Co. report :
"We have had a very quiet market to-day ; little_ fine-
ness doing, but prices much the same as last Tuesday-

of Dr. PICK FORD. With as Introduitian by the Editor, containing
a complete exposure of the system of terrorism and extortion pursued
by the advertising quacks of the metropolis towards those who are
credulbas enough to seek their aid.

" La. Pickford ,s known to English readers by his frequent practi-
cal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
t me, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medi-
sal -eader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall ~etect any
other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his .over to cor-
rect." —London Medical Gazette. " The tribe a" Quiet Sympathisers,'
and ' Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed ; and if this book
amid find its way into the hands of those who suffer from the com-
plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundreds would
be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is cf
less importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—
much money --This volume is welt qualitieii to put an end to the
empirical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to place the treat-

likely to do much good."
