GRAND REVIEW IN HYDE-PARK.
( kiIS D )
This morning h•att,g be,n tsp.ntued for the review
Of the whole vt the enrolled en'-p .usteners of
College, an immense number of persons, it eluding a
g.ood portion of tne fastoaesble world, assembled in
Hyde-patio, for the double purpose of viewing the nepes-
ing Spectacle and to ea:ch a sight of '".the Bake," his
101,s1 Highness Prince Albwo, and Sir LiArry Smith,
who, it we'', rumoar,d, weuld b., present; hot its thi'
they were disappointed, ter nei•her of thOse illustrious
personages came to the ground. At an early hour the
divisions from Woolwich, Chelsea, and all the other
suburban districts were marched to the park, and
amounted to about 2,500 with their bands; and when
formed into line it eiztended from the clamp of trees, on
the high part of the park, nearly to the railings in the
Bayswater road. The whole fore was under the com-
mand of Colonel Tulloch, and it had a very novel ap-
Pearance from the dissimilarity to the usual soldier's
dress. As nearly as possible at eleven o'clock
his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, attended
by his staff, Lord Adolphus ' Fitzalarence, and a
number of ncialemen and gentlemen in private clothes,
entered the, ground, which - was kept by a battalion of
the Coldstream Guards, and rode along the line, the men
presentirig arras, and the bands playing the National
Anthem. ,His Royal Highness and the distinguished
Party then took up their position towards the Marble
Arch, and the battalions marched by in slow and quick
' time.- Thellixisions were moved into thwhoLlow, and the
mancauvres of a field•day were gone throUgh with great
precision, ;considering some of the ancient soldiers
" have been out of praCrice lately," as one of them
Coolly observed. The firing 'was carried on with great
,rapidity, and .the-differeet charges of the battalions pretty
. :well 'pi through'. ,At the Close of the review the troops
Were aunin, formed into line, and saluted his Royal
Highness and staff as they left -the ground. There could
not have been less than thirty or forty thousand persons
present.

street, Edinburgh, pursuant to public advertisement,

directors of the company, was called to the chair. Tne
meeting being of a private nature, the reporters were
requested to withdraw. We understand that after a
full explanation had hen given by the Chairman of what

other directors had had with the Great Western party

Great ,Virestera. Coullippy, an animated discus-
tvz Bion..loh the 'Vote for' amalgamating the three com-
P.anieu,ithd on the additional clauses now proposed to be
added, took place,' when the' majority of those present
being of opinion that the proposed Bill did not carry
out what the shareholders here previously agreed to, but
" that the effect of the amalgamations proposed would be
. to hand over their property to the Great Western Com-
pany on terms most disadvantageous to the shareholders,
a resolution was proposed to the effect, " That this
Meeting entirely disapproves of the proposed Amalga-
Dutton Bill, and recommends its abandonment." Those
shareholders who bad given proxies to the directors to vote
in its favour, were strongly urged to withdraw them imme-
diately. The resolution was carried with only four dissen-
tient votes. Remarks were also made expressive of the
strong feeling of disapprobation entertained by the
shareholders against the Traffic Arrangements Bill,
which the directors have attempted to get carried
through Parliament unknown to and without any sanc-
tion by the shareholders,. bat. which. the Standing Or-
ders' Committee of the House of Lords have refused to
pass, unless first approved of by four fifths of the share-
riders present at the special meeting convened for the
*lll ingtant.. Proxies to vote against this Bill were re-
"llliiiEnded to be sent in.

musical arrangements, under Mr. G. F. Taylor,
• gave great satisfaction. " Bonnie Dundee," sung by
kis sir
a Wells, was given with great spirit. and was en-
cored. The Noble Chairman, in proposing prosperity
to the asylum, expressed the deep interest he felt in its
welfare. He mentioned that it was founded in 1808,
daring the wars, in which Scottish regiments bad borne
co distinguished a part, and when many orphans were
destitute, having neither parents nor home. In
1815 the society was incorporated by Act of
Parliament, and in 1828 some land was purchased
in Copenhagen-fields, and a building erected capable of
containing 100 boys, and shortly after 90 were admit-
ted. Sir James Matheson made a handsome donation
tb of 100/., and in 1845 the building was completed, with,
„. accommodation for 100 boys and nearly as many girls,
but at present the institution only contained 56 boys and 53
t girls, and unless additional support'was given this 01.101-
ber'inustlie diminished •to.Bo children. In conclusion,

mentioned several instances where after leaving the asy-
km the children had turned out very well in life. Se-

'lttliongst them Dr. Cumming, who spoke very favourably
of the system of education adopted. The subscriptions
announced amounted to 650/.

STA T h OF TRADE.
(From the Manchester Guardian of this day.)
111INCEIESTER, TUESDAY.— the occurrence of the
• Whitsuntide holidays in the present week has dimi-
nished the attendance on 'Change, and contributed to the
quietness that has characterised the market to-day. The
tti• transactions in yarns and goods have been very limited;
and the latter are only just steady at previous rates.
`lll
%J. ln yarns there is more firmness than in cloth; indeed,
a general firmness marks both mule and water, in
a.
b:undles, warps, and cops; and in the finer counts, par-
ticularly those into which sea islands cotton enters, the
tendency is still upward. The Indian advices do not
sPPear to have produced any effect in the way of in-
!teased business; nor have the American accounts,
from which we learn that, while cotton had gained k to
ie• per lb. at New York, some little giving way had en-
sued at New Orleans and Mobile on the receipt of the
lame English News which had produced the contrary
effect in the northern market.
RCCRDALE, MONDAY.—We have had a decided
improvement in the demand for flannels to-day, but no
Change in prices. In wool, also, there has been rather
, koro doing, and prices are looking up.
. HALIFAX, SATURDAY.—ScarceIy any buyers have
visited our piece hall to-day, and the condition of the
worsted trade has undergone no change for the better.
The same may be said of the position of the spinners,
' Who have to struggle with a languid demand and unre-
rounerative prices for yarn on the one hand, and a high
charge:tor the raw material on the other. The wool
Market has experienced no alteration, either in the
, amount changing hands, or in the quotations.
HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY.—AS is usual at holiday
• times we have had a very flat market. We have bad
very kW buyers in town, consequently very little has
been donw either in the cloth hall or in the warehouses.
