DONCASTER SPRING MEETING.—YESTERDAY.
No greater contrast than that between the autumn
gathering held here and the one we are now attending can
be conceived. To one accustomed to the crowds and ex-
citement of the former, the aspect of the principal street
last night, free from its.blockade of loungers, and a Sub-
cription Room destitute of subscribers, was curious in the
extreme, while the course this morning looked desolate and
the long array of stands almost tenantless.
Still it was Doncaster despite these drawbacks, and the
most splendid racecourse in England can be enjoyed with-
out the necessity of a crowd. The sport was very good, the
Hopeful introducing a field of promising youngsters, among
whom Qui Vive and Emma were most noticeable for good
looks and condition. The former, though small, showed
decided quality, and odds were laid on him directly the
numbers went up, which he landed very cleverly.
Spring Handicap, for which Wandering Minstrel (who ha,
been made such a warm favourite at the Corner on Mon-
day) was an abSentee, causing thereby the usual complaints
from those who had taken liberties with him, saw a good
race
between Dunkeld and the Earl of Surrey, the latter
being defeated by a short neck.
The other events call for no particular comment.
The Trial Stakes of 5 sovs each, with 50 sovs added.

MARKETS—This Day.

MARK LANE.

The supply of English wheat on sale here to-day was
very moderate. The attendance of business was small,
and the trade both for red and white qualities ruled in-
active. Selected qualities, however, were firm in price,
and in the value of inferior produce no change took place
compared with Monday.
With foreign wheat the market was but moderately
supplied. Nearly all descriptions were in slow request,
but prices ruled stationary. Good and prime old foreign
wheats were decidedly firm.
Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly, at late
currencies.

The supply of good and fine malting barley was 'small,
and the demand for such qualities ruled firm, at extreme
rates. Inferior barley was a dull inquiry, at about
stationary prices.

&Malt changed hands ton moderate extent, at late rates.
There was a good supply of oats on sale. Sweet corn
was in fair average request, tit full currencies, but heated
and inferior parcels sold heavily, at about stationary
prices.

Both beans and peas met a slow sale, at late rates.
Flour changed hands to a fair average extent, and prices
were steadily supported.

THE ACCIDENT IN THE BLACKHEATH TUN-
NEL.—The adjourned inquest on the bodies of
the five unfortunate men who were killed in the Black-
heath Tunnel by the collision which occurred on the 16th
ult., was resumed yesterday, at the Blackheath Tavern,
Blackheath, before Mr. Carttar, the coroner for West Kent
Nc new evidence was adduced, and the Coroner after a few
minutes' consultation with the jury announced that the
inquiry was adjourned until Tuesday next at 3 o'clock,
when in all probability he thought it would be concluded.
We are glad to report that the breaksman of the ballaft
train who was so much injured, and whose evidence has
not been yet received, is sufficiently recovered to be able to
leave the hospital and return to his own home.
SOCIETY FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT OF THE FINE
ARTS.—Last evening Mr. J. A. Heraud delivered a
lecture before the members of this society, at their rooms,
9, Conduit-street, "On the Impulsive Period of Shak..
spere's Productivity." The lecturer treated of the plays
produced by the poet during the first seven years of his
residence in London, and gave some particulars of his
early life, on documentary evidence, which presented a
very different-character of the poet from that assigned to
. him by tradition.

THE CANONRY AT WINCHESTER.—It is stated in
the Churchman yesterday, on authority, that the canonry
of Winchester Cathedral, recently vacant by the death of
Archdeacon Hoare, will not be filled up.

STATE OF TRADE.—BRADFORD, Jan. 26.—Though
money is now very easy, yet no demand for wool
is the result of the improvement. The most scanty busi-
ness has been done to-day in wools. There was rather
more inquiry for hogs, but the offers were generally too
low to be accepted. Prices were rather unsteady.
Wool might be bought on terms a shade easier than a
fortnight ago. In worsted yarns the continental trade
continued very depressed. There was scarcely any de-
mand. Stocks are accumulating, and spinners are said to
be generally stopping frames. The home trade was still
quiet. There was some activity in certain sorts, chiefly in
twofolds and 40's. Prices were very irregular. The piece
trade was inanimate, although some thought there was a
trifle more business done. The manufacturers of mohair
lenos, white warp Orleans, and camlets continue well occu-
pied with orders previously received. In other respects
there was no change. The home houses, who ordered
pretty freely in November and December, and are now re-
ceiving the goods so ordered, are now giving out small
orders for the purpose of assorting. There was no demand
for plain goods. The American houses are inactive. The
tendency of prices is to soften.
A WATERLOO SOLDIER.—There was interred at
the Cemetery, Brompton, on the the 26th inst., Maj
tor
hJeamre-
es
Reginald Graham, late of the Scots Greys, and on . f
tired list. This officer was nearly the last remaining o
those who served in that distinguished corps on the 18th of
June, 1815, and was one of the last in the field on that me-
morable evening.
London, England, 1865-01-27

DENMARK.

A Copenhagen letter of the 22d, in the llloniteur,
has the following :—" The First Chamber of the
Rigsraad yesterday terminated the discussion on the
second reading of the new Constitution, after intro-
ducing only one amendment of any importance.
This amendment bore on the concluding paragraph
of Art. 47, which prescribes that the King is em-
powered to refute his sanction to the augmentations
made by the Rigsdag in the law on the finances
without the Budget being invalidated by such re-
fusal. In other words, the Rigsdag may diminish
the credits demanded by the Government, but
cannot increase them, the Sovereign having
the prerogative to accept or annul them. To
avoid the embarrassing situation between the
Crown and the national representation to which
this provision might give rise, M. Krieger moved an
amendment, which the Landsthing adopted, to the
effect that augmentations of credits could not be put
to the vote when the Government opposed them.
This wording, which changes the form rather than
the substance, is a victory for the Cabinet, and at
the same time obviates the chances of conflict. The
Landsthing, moreover, rejected, by 40 votes to 15,
an amendment proposed by M. Lehman for prevent.
ing the King, in future, from conferring titles of
nobility, or of attaching any rank to such titles. If
the draught of the Constitution passes the third
reading in the Landsthing in the state it has just
gone through in the second, it will then be sub-
mitted to the Folksthing."

NATIONAL STEAM NAVIGATION.

The second ordinary meeting of this company was held
yesterday at Liverpool, Mr. Gunston presiding. The report
stated that the company had a fleet of five vessels, which
would be increased to eight within a few months. The
earnings in the New York and Alexandria trade amounted
to a net profit of £27,168. The directors recommended that
£lB,OOO be placed to the credit of depreciation account ; that
£9,000 be distributed at the rate of 9s. per share to the
shareholders, leaving £l6B for next account. It was not in-
tended to call up more than £3O per share ; and the direc-
tors had determined not to accept any remuneration for
their past services. The chairman, in moving the adoption
of the report, stated that the company hadbeen quite as suc-
cessful as they could expect, and that their vessels had be-
haved remarkably well during the late gales. The motion
was agreed to and the retiring directors were re-elected.

LONDON, FRIDAY, JAN. 27, 1865.

Meetings and speeches are now the order of the
clay, and, strange as it may seem to the uninitiated,
the members are rushing about in all directions to
make their views known to their constituents prior
to the assembling of Parliament. Mr. LEATHAM
has lately done his part in contributing to the
goodly store of orations ; but it cannot be said that,
ysis of his speech, much can be
after a critical anal
gathered in the way of instruction or imparted as
to any new line of policy. His discourse would seem
to possess the prejudices and narrowness of the
speeches of Messrs. COBDEN and BRIGHT, without
being adorned by the logic of the one, or the elo-
quence of the other. When he falls short in his
arguraents Mr. LEATHAM has recourse to abuse,
and appears to think that such a device is very cute
indeed. we find the same superficialities indulged
in, the usual amount of excitement as to Reform,
the common outcry of the war in America, and the
ordinary meanness concerning Denmark, which cha-
racterise all the speeches
of
would
the ultra school of poli-
ticians. With them it
seem as if the new
doctrine they had inaug ted
was,
be as degenerate as possible their foreign
they can
if they only fire up about social policy,
grievances and do-
mestic wrongs. By this convenient manoeuvring
they can gratify all their cherished desires
at
once
—vent their spite against their political opponents_
do a good turn to their friends in America—proclaim
their everlasting peace policy—and make a great
show of their devotion to the cause of freedom and
justice on behalf of their oppressed and per_

secuted fellow-countrymen. It is, however,
unfortunate for the success of all this
skilful planning and most ingenious scheming, that
the country is getting rather tired of it, and begin-
ning to recognise that there is a vast amount of
clap-trap in all the fine sounding words, and much
mannerism in the glow of patriotism, and the reflec-

never speaks to male strangers, and she seldom or never
leaves the house. Her finery, jewellery, and ornaments
can be shown only to those of her own sex ; and in every
way her seclusion is as complete as that of the Turkish
women. On the other hand, the Armenian women seldom
do any hard work; they remain at h6tne while theirhusband
labour in the fields, and they enjoy, probably on account
of their acquaintance prior to marriage, much
respect and confidence from their husbands than falls to
the share of the Turkish wife, who, moreover, has to
divide with two or three rivals the little affection or re-
spect which her husband deigns to bestow on her. As the
Armenian woman can only talk in her own house below
' her breath, that none of her male relatives may hear what
she says, it follows that the consequence which usually re-
s sults from the residence of so many women in one house,
incessant quarrelling, is quite avoided.--470ner'S JOUribed

leave the hospital and return to his own home.
