MINCHEsTER, April 22.—There has been a very strong
yarn. market, but spinners are asking much higher prices
(in some cases fully id. per lb. more than lasi week), and
there has not been a very large business. The demand for
what has been done has been pretty general, including
buyers for India, China, Germany, the Mediterranean, and
home trade. The cloth-market is in a loss satisfactory state'

Since Tuesday last there has been a fair demand for goods
at full, and in some cases improved rates. The late accounts
from America have, however, to-day caused buyers to
suspend operations; while manufacturers are asking an
advance on last week's prices. We have, therefore, to re-
port a small amount of business, and renew our quotations
of last Tuesday."
LEEDS, April 22.—The markets in the cloth-halls, as is
usual at Easter, were characterised by much quietness to-
day. There was a thin attendance both of manufacturers and
merchants, and only a small amount of business was done.
In other respects the markets were satisfactory, prices being
steady and no anxiety shown to effect sales. The Easter
holidays hero have been kept with the usual amount of fes-
tivity, or nearly so, and there have been few manifestations
of any suffering from want of employment among the ope-
rative classes.

that city, is about to proceed to Vienna, to request
the remission of the supplementary taxes which the
communes of the Lombardo-Venetian Kingdom
are bound to pay for the conscripts who emigrated
in 1861 and 1862. For those two years the com-
mune of Venice alone had to pay 200,0"0 florins,
and the amount of the supplementary taxes for the

mated at ten times that sum.

that the number of bills relating to railways in Great
Britain and Ireland deposited for this session amounts to
229. Of this number 174 authorise new works. The pro-

77 bills, for 492 miles, relate to England ; 8 bills, for 53

SOUTH YORKSHIRE.

The report ;I thedcrectors states that £58,487,
added to the capital during the past year, has been
chiefly on account of plant and of the extensions
connected with the undertaking. The revenue
account exhibits a gross income from all sources of
£89,052, earned at a total expense of £37,561,
leaving a balance of £51,490, which, after paying
the interest and preferential dividends, will yield
a dividend at the rate of 41 per cent. per annum on
the ordinary capital, and the directors recommend
that such dividend be declared accordingly. The
capital account shows that £2 391 612 had been re-
ceived, and £2,355,490 expended, leaving a balance
of £36,122.

information on the physiological changes which occur
in the Reproductive System during the periods of youth,
puberty, and manhood ; and on the due attainment of that
degree of functional vigour upon which the hopes of posterity
depend. It also points out how all the attributes of Man-
hood can be preserved to an advanced period of life, how they

THE SUN.

LONDON, FRIDAY, FEB. 21, 1862.

What shall we say of requiring Gloucester and
Wakefield once more to sand representatives to
our Parliament, as legislators for the Empira P
What will they represent' -Will it be their own
purses, or the men into whose purses they empty
their own ? It cannot be said that they will repre-
sent the predominant political, or even municipal
opinions, of the really respectable, the unpurchase-
able portion of the constituency. The majority of
this portion may be supporters of Lord PALMER-

STON or Lord DERBY, it matters not which for our
argument—all honest Englishmen wish that the
members returned by any constituency should re-
present the political opinions of the majority of the
electors. That principle is assumed by us all,

whether we prefer a restricted or a liberel franchise.
At Gloucester, and at Wakefield, too, whether
this shall be done is the merest chance. The turning
votes are confessedly- those of which four hundred, it
is certain are directly purchasable; and, probably,
almost as many again, more or less directly. That
the returned members are quite as likely, therefore,
to represent the minority as the majority, of the
nubribed constituency, is perfectly clear. The i
question therefore seems almost to come to this, shall
Gloucester and places like it possess the privilege
of having agents for local business, in the House of
Commons, who shall be elected wholly irrespectively
of their political opinions ? Probably any member,
returned by any means, would attend to the local
business in the House, in which any considerable
portion of the inhabitants of the city took any, in-
terest. It is an easy way for any member to earn,
at a cheap rate, the good will of the citizens. But
is this our notion of an English member of Parlia-
ment ? Is he only, in regard to the Imperial Par-
liament, what the deputies of the Metropolitan Par-
liament are to the Metropolis ? or, are we right in
our ordinary supposition, that his most important
function is to approve, or to disapprove, on the part
of the majority of his constituents, of the Imperial
policy of the Government of the day; including,
of course, their Legislative policy ?
We presume our legislators have no doubt on
this subject. They are proud to regard themselves,
not as mere deputies for a locality, but as legis-
latcrs for the empire—as the supporters or the
opponents of some public policy. But of what use
for such a purpose are five hundred Gloucesters and
Wakefield,? If the foregoing remarks cannot be
controverted, and we do not see how they can,
boroughs like these are worse than useless. We
