NXWBURY, JULY I.—To-day's market was only mo-
derately supplied with wheat, and the Attendance of both
farmers and millers was short. The continued depres-
sion of the flour trade gave a dull tone to the market,
and sales proceeded very slowly, at barely so good rates
as last week, with a good portion of the supply left over.
Barley, scarcely any on offer, with but little demand.
Oats, short supply, and dull sale at late rates. Beans
and peas, short supply, but the high prices demanded
checked business, 40s per quarter for beans being con-
sidered much too high by consumers.
laxmarooL, JULY 2.—The Corn Exchange this
morning was moderately attended. Wheat and flour
commanded the extreme rates of Tuesday for the present
consumption, and in a few instances ld per bushel ad-
vance was established on wheat; two or three large par-
cels were taken to hold over. White Wien corn gave
way 3d to 6d par qr, but in yellow thetirwas nochange.
All other articles of the grain trade remain as quoted
on Tuesday. The weather here is unfavourable.

THE CLOTHING MANUFACTURES.
ENGLISH WOOL, JULY 2.—There continues to be a
good demand for combining wools, of which the supply
at market is at present very limited. Prices may be
quoted the same as last week. Clothing wools are also
ready sale, at fair prieex.

YORK WOOL, JULY I.—We have had a good supply
of wool at our market today, about 600 sheets having
been exhibited. The attendance of buyers, however,
was not so numerous as usual, many being present at
other wool fairs; consequently a few 4 lots remained un-
sold, and prices were without alteration. Locks and
casts realised from 8s to 1 is per stone, according to their
quality.
STOCKTON-ON•TEES WOOL FAIR, JUNE 30.--The first
wool fair was held this day; there was a very fair sup.
ply of the article, and purchasers frops Leeds, Bradford,
and other places, were in attendance. All was nearly
disposed of at the following prices:--Scotch sheep 6d to
bid, hog and ewes ls. Cheviot hogs lad, Mashana hogs
11d per lb.
TRADE OF LEEDS.—III the Cloth.halls, both coloured
and white, the stocks have hardly ever bean known to
be so low as at present. A good business is being done
in articles suitable for the fall trade, at remunerative
prices to the manufacture, and if the ripply were larger,
the amount of business would be greater. In the ware

goods made from wools on which the late advance had

BRADFORD, JUNE 30.--This being the season when
thu woolstaplers make their principal purchases from
the farmers, a considerable number are attending the
county fairs; but their purchases are very sparing. Only
the more sanguine will venture to give the pricea asked,
and then only for immediate sale. The market for
Thursday was better than usual, a larger business was
done than for several weeks past. The shipping
housesfor yarn at present abstain from buying, on accountof
the higher prices asked.
TRADE OF MANCHESTER, JUNE 30.--We have had
rather a quiet market for yarns, and there has been but
little inquiry for any of the lower numbers of mule.
Spinners are well supplied with orders for the fine num-
bers of mule, and also for most kinds of water twist.

India qualities have been in but little request since the
arrival of the overland mail at the beginning of the
week, but in numbers and qualities of fine yarn, suit-
able to the markets of Russia, a very fair business is
doing, On the whole, the market is tolerably steady,
end Prices firm. In cloth there is more business doing,
and for printing cloths especially there is a considerable
business at full prices. There is a demand generally for
cloths, With the exception of domestics, sufficient to carry

PLYMOUTH, PRIDAY.—Her Majesty's iron steamer
Jackall, Lieut.-Commander N. B. Bedingfield, arrived
this morning from the coast of Africa. She left Ascen-
sion on the 13th of May, Sierra Leone the 30th of May;
arrived at Madeira on the 18th of June, and left on the 22d.
At Ascension the Commodore; the Tortoise, Capt. W.
11. Kitchen; the Dolphin, Lieut.-Commander Wood,
late Ist of the Alecto; the Myrmidon, Lieut.-Commander
Joliffe; and the Alecto. Tne brigantine Spy, 3, Lieut.-
Commander H. B. Beresford, was about to leave for the
South Coast. At Sierra Leone the Polyphemus, 5,
paddlewheel steamer, Commander Charles G. Phillips.
The Bloodhound had burst her boiler, and had it repaired
at Ascension. She sailed on the 28th of May for a cruise
to the Gallinas. The Harpy, tender to the Centaur,
was daily expected from the coast of America at Capo
Verde, where she would have to perform quarantine.
The Governor of Madeira was gone on a visit to the
Western Isles. The crews of the African fleet were
generally healthy, with the exception of those belonging
to the Harlequin, Myrmidon, and others employed
up the rivers. The Jackall has been on the coast
of Africa two years under her present commander,
and has been constantly employed in the va-
rious rivers in the Bights of Benin and Biafra,
with her Majesty's Consul, Mr. John Beecroft.
From the nature of her employment, she lost during
her eameeissies four officers and ten men. She left
Ascension on the 13th of May. On her passage across
a serious leakavas discovered, under the starboard con-
denser; however, by working withy two wing boilers at
.51b. pressure (the 'middle boilers being worn out and
past repair), she succeeded in steaming to Sierra Leone
by the 21st of May. On examining the leak in harbour,
a large jelly fish was discovered protruding through the
hole, and partially stopping the leak; to stop it effec-
tually it became necessary to cut away the fish piece-
meal from inboard. When this was accomplished, the
rush of water
.was so great that, although the steam-
pumps were kept working, it was found necessary to run
the Jackall on shore. She was detained nine days to
repair, and then proceeded on her homeward voyage,
touching at Cape Verde and Madeira for coals, and bring-
ing a mail from the latter place.,
On the 13th of June passed an English merchant

W.__. to the heart-
stirring fight, ill not lightly consent to
retire into action and obscurity. Th •
e protracted denial
of fiscal justice has taught the town constituencies their
strength, and accustomed their representatives to the
contests of the hustings and the Senate. The end once
gained to which their united efforts were directed, it was
but natural to suppose that the army which stormed the
intrenchments of the Conservatives in 1846 should look
around them for another leader and another cause.
Those persona who were of opinion that a season of po-
litical peace was necessary to the country at the conclu-
sion of so terrible a strife, saw with satisfaction that
such a cause and such a leader were wanting. All went
on smoothly until the commencement of the present
session. It then became painfully evident to all
observers, that the Minifter on whose shoul-
ders lay the responsibility of steadily main.
taming the progress of the country in an
even groove was unequal to the task. The reigns of office
fell from his infirm grasp,and at the most critical moment.
A few months longer would have been sufficient to set
for ever at rest the question of suspending, even for a
'while, the system of free imports, and of. galvsniziEg
the dead carcase of Protection into momentary vitality.
Fate has ordered otherwise. The scattered forces of
the Anti-Corn-law League have been recalled under their
old:banners. A regular campaign has been substituted
for a guerilla warfare. The Ban and Arriere Ban of
democracy have been summoned from the loom and the
coal-pit, from the sounding forge and the busy mill. The
Fiery Cross has been once more sent through the
towns of England—and all for what ? When this great
effort of a powerful nation has been put forth, what is to
be the result ? The forces of the towns are not sum-
moned precisely to a real, and not precisely to a sham
fight. It is to be a real flight if they are the weakest,
and a sham fight if they are the strongest, but men cannot
employ their whole lives in beating the same adversary
upon the same ground. It is, then, as friends of orderly
progress, and as opponents of all violent and ill-con-
sidered change, that we write. While Lord Derby and
his staff are putting their mimic troops through their
facings, the most fiery spirits in the country are smiling
at the idle demonstration, and thanking him for doing
their work. The Minister who has accepted office with
all the hilarity and all the thoughtlessness of a school-
boy cannot even depend upon his own followers. They
know they are summoned to the field for a mere sham.
:Yon cannot inspire the stern seal of a campaign into a
hope of yeomanry at parade. Lord Derby has little tO
from the fidelity of his supporters, but everything
to fear from th • •

tbey find that for the last six years they
have been the mere dupes - • •
of politicians without sincerity
and without conviction. A
change
those who have been accustomed
has been noticed by
and to watch the temper
and tone of the farmers yeomanry at their market
meetings. They state, that Lord Derby's
acknowledg.
ment of defeat will be the commencement of a very dif-
ferent state of political feeling among that class from any
that has yet obtained. However this may be, it is of the
town population alone we would speak. Why, in the
Census Commissioners' Report, which is now lying
before us, there is an abstract of the numbers of our
urban population which should cheek the impetuosity of
the most dashing political chieftain. The first batch of
represented boroughs gives us a population of 3,000,000.
It contains—

Tower Hamlets... 539,111 Manchester ... 316.213
Liverpool ... 376,065 Lambeth ... 251,345
Marylebone ... 370,957 Westminster ... 241,811

Stoke-on-Trent... 84,027 Bolton. . .

Oldham ... 72,357 Leicester ... 40,584
Portsmouth ... 72,096

We cannot afford space to carry on the list here, but
must content ourselves with referring our readers to the
report of the Commissioners for an abstract of the forces
which Lord Derby has called once more into action
under the guidance of their old chiefs. It is unfortu-
nately not within our competence to hinder a collision
between the great " interests" of the country; we can
but give notice of the rocks ahead, and other warning
of the approaching danger. Most heartily do we

of our political parties, whether at the hustings, or
as they existed towards the close of the session which
has jugs expired, do we not find it to be somewhat
as follows ? A Minister who professes to have
assumed the reins of office upon Conservative prin-
ciples begins his career by proclaiming once more the
old cry of " town against country, and " country
against town," which had almost ceased to arouse any
emotion in the listener's breast. By way of adding to
his own strength, and diminishing the power of his an-
tagonists, ho bas furnished them with a cry which will
avail them more than 100 votes upon a division. But
we do not only confine our attention within the compa-
ratively limited circle open to Parliamentary tacticians.
Lord Derby has roused the blood of the country, and it
will not lightly throb itself to peace. One point after
another on which a Conservative Minister might justly
have hoped to depend will be forced before his eyes,
simply becauso he has evoked a powerful organization
against himsWf And his order. Those wile wish well
to his cause, apart fro& the great question of the day,_
cannot but hope that he may be beaten at once, and by
a majority sodecisive as to pat all further contest out of
the question.
