Yesterday was one of the "quiet days" whi.
people choose for a good look at the Exhibition, and
consequently, although it was a half-a-crown day,
there was a very crowded attendance. We never
saw the two picture galleries fuller, and all the long
corridors in their neighbourhood were densely
thronged with company. The Princesses Alice and.
Louisa paid all early visit ; and we observed alo
amongst the company the Marquis of Westminster,
and several others of the haute noblesse, The long
succession of cases in which the Coventry ribbons
are exposed had numerous admirers, and the
foreigners pre amt seemed to be surprised at their
richness of texture and beauty of design. One
magnificent ribbon in which nearly the whole of
Tennyson's legend of 4$
gailypro fusi dorne,ssed the peoplesone Godiva" was embroidered
attracted very considerable notice. From the
cases the company would cross over to the balus-
trade, and looking down, admire the extraordi-
nary and beautiful moving panorama, which was
fte moving

vof e ry
the direction,
varis
di:,closed by the nave below. It would be im-
possible, indeed, anywhere to enjoy a 11-10fe
striking eff, ct, both of sight and sound. The
the numberless attractive objects scattered in rich
musical instruments ascending, as it were, in one
eo
great indistinct mass of melody, all combined to
produce a whole, which held the company spell-
bound as they leant over the slender
railing.
Wherever the promenader turned, life was to be
found teeming, and thoroughly enjoyed by- the 'Sig-
tors. In one place a crowd surrounded Air. Distin
and his band; in another the great Orchesttjon
detained a numerous audience. The eastern plat-
form was thronged, first to hear Mr. Richardson
and Master Drew Dean, and then to be delighted
by Mr. Lazare's recital on one of Collard's grand
pianofortes. Those who scorned mucie, and who
affected " notions," hurried into the AnNrican de-
partment, where the latest Yankee inventiOn was
exhibited in the shape of a mechanical ‘‘ goy'
milker," which does the work more effectually than
the neatest-handed Phyllis, and doubles the ordi-
nary process in results. The spectators were much
amused, and asked, "What next ?" but a great
many thought that the odd machine had a great
many solid recommendations to the bucolic mind.
In the evening a good many of the company
were drawn off to attend Mr. Baring's fete at the
Crystal Palace, but their places were soon supplied
by others, who poured in even so late as five or 81%
o'clock. A heavy shower which fell in the after-
noon tested the domes rather unpleasantly,and
marked the necessity of some action being taken
.o protect the costly articles on either platform
rom the rain.
From the official return it appears that the num-
ler of visitors was—By season tickets, 6,271; by
ent, 21,589; total, 2'7,860.

be put forth in any quantity without Congressional
sanction, they furnish a ready means for a tempo-
rary avoidance not only of loans, but of any fresh
creation of the "demand notes," which are a legal
tender, and of which up to the middle of last month
the Government were supposed to have issued about
£20,000,000. These demand notes may be increased
to £30,000,000, under en Act of Congress passed
several months back, and it was expected that that
total would be reached about the present time.
£12,000,000 of those already out are a legal tender
for all purposes, including duties on imports/
but
these are to be withdrawn as soon as possible, and
others substituted, which will be a legal tender
everywhere except at the Custom-house. Mean-
while, the local banks throughout all the States
continue their ordinary issues, and are increasing
the amount with great boldness in consequence of
the suspension of specie payments and the fact that
they are now bound to meet their obligations only
in the irredeemable Government currency which is
being so profusely manufactured. A call for small
notes of one, two, and three dollars each, owing to
the withdrawal of silver from circulation, likewise
encourages them in this direction. According to
some opinions, the banks will before long issue two
paper dollars for every one issued by the Govern-
ment. In the midst of all this the causes that assist
to prevent the inflation from breaking up so soon
as might be expected are—l, that at the commence-
ment of the paper issues the country was more
rich in coin than at any former period ; 2, that the
currency previously to the suspension of specie pay-
ments had been largely contracted, from the appre-
hensions caused by the war ; and, 3, that the im-
portations had for a considerable time been less, and
the exportations greater, than had ever previously
been known.—Times City Article.

MANCHESTER RACES, JUNE 13.

THE FLOOD IN THE FENS.

LATEST PARTICULARS.
LYNN, FRIDAY NIGHT.
Nothing like the gloom that has pervaded the
public mind during the last 48 hours has been seen
since the catastrophe first happened; engineers and
workmen look glum, and the general public are
quite confident that if the water is not stopped until
it is done by the present engineers it will never be
done at all. The rain was falling heavily the greater
part of yesterday, and this added to the gloom.
Rumours were current that the whole framework
was carried away, but this was untrue. Upon
visiting the works this morning it was found that
the steam engine had been got on to the dam, and
it was being attempted to drive three or four large
piles in the places where the hole had been burst.
The operation was found most difficult, and the diver
had to go down and remove some sacks of earth ont
of the way. Amid the general gloom Mr. Leather,
the contractor, keeps up his spirits, and talks of
being able, with the materials, machinery, and
ample labour now at command, to stop the water-
way in a week or fortnight. One thing, however,
is certain—that, with the constant scour and re-
peated interference with the small strata of clay at
the bottom of the cut on the site of the present cof-
ferdam, the foundation will be so loosened that,
should the framework be carried away (and this is
by no means improbable), it will be impossible to
strike a dam without going beyond the site of St.
Mary's-bridge, which was carried away. In the
course of to-day several lighters have been brought
into the drain laden with gravel and clunch, and
have deposited their cargoes at the foot of the frame-
work of the dam on both sides. A great number of
tons of rock stone have also been dropped in, as
well as same thousand sacks of earth. It is not at
all surprising that the dam should burst when it is
known that the panel was not dropped into tie
groove true, there being a space of at least 6 inches
between the side of the panel and the groove at the
bottom. With such insecurity as this, and the very
small depth to which they were driven, the only
wonder would have been if the structure had re-
mained firm.
The greatest fear is still felt that the whole struc-
ture will be carried away before the spring tides are
over. The " shores" connected with the centre of
the dam, and the struts on the shore, are notoriously
insufficient to bear the heavy stress put upon them
at every tide, and the tides will be at their highest
point to-night or to-morrow. This morning there
was a very high tide, and the cofferdam was
watched with the greatest anxiety. The wind is
very high from the W., :and should Admiral Fitz-
roy's prognostications of a gale from the W.N.W.
turn out correct (which, from the manner in which
the wind is now blowing great guns, is very likely
to be the case), nothing on earth can same the
framework of the cofferdam, which is now the only
check that the waters have. There is reason to
believe that the vast quantities of clunch and rock
stone which have been deposited in the neighbour-
hood of the dam have had the effect of filling up the
holes to a great extent, which were caused by the
very strong scour.
Immediately after the dam
Mr. Hawkshaw left the works, and ups to

MANCHESTER, June 13.—We have no market to-
day. The races commencing on Wednesday, and
the usual holidays at Whitsuntide have taken
people out of town, and warehouses have only
opened during the mornings since Tuesday.-
Some little business has been done, during the
hours when warehouses have been open, but it
has been trifling. Prices are rather higher,
or, at least, sellers are asking higher mica,
in consequence of the firmer and more active
cotton market at Liverpool, but the rumours
of a probable interference in American affairs by
France and England have had influence on busi-
ness. Burns's Colonial Circular and Commercial
Glance of to-morrow (proofs of which have been
obligingly furnished to us in anticipation) will give
some information as to the quantity of cotton now
in Europe, and showing how greatly the trade have
been disappointed by the smallness of supply from
India. The paper says :---"The diminished exports
from Bombay for this year certainly are not as
cheering as we might have expected, yet it is come
satisfaction to find by the last accounts from Bom-
bay that this is partly owing 'to the boats not
been able to reach the port, owing to the prevalence
of contrary winds ; however, a large quantity is ex-
pected as soon as the northerly winds set in again.
But still we must admit that this does not of itself
insure us any large increase in the exports from
India, nor does it fulfil our previous anticipations of
the immerse quantity we expected to receive,whioli
we still affirm she is capable of supplying. How,
then, shall we account for such dilatoriness on the
part of the natives! That India annually produces
upwards of 6,000,000 bales is as yet undisputed,and
it appears hardly credible that, if they have the
way, they are without the will to sell it us at 6d.
or 7d. per lb., instead of disposing of it to their own
weavers at ld. or lld. per lb., and it is upon this
point we wish to draw most serious attention. The
great want of India is proper channels through
which cotton may find its way down to the ports.
In the first place, there are only two or three
European merchants in Bombay who have agents
out in the cotton districts. How, then, can we ex-
pect the merchants to provide us with anything like
the quantity necessary to supply our requirements ?
If they use such small exertions to obtain the cotton
direct, they at once lose our confidence in their capa-
bilities of supplying us. Yet hundreds of native
dealers swarm in the interior, practising every
sort
of dishonesty, and blinding the natives as to the
real state of the export markets, and thus, although
these knavish dealers are filling their own pockets,
the growers are receiving no better prices than
usual, and so have no interest whatever in seek-
ing a means of conveyance to_ the ports. Again,
it is stated that tbe natives last year preferred
to sell
a large portion of their cotton rather
weave it themselves,
than and consequently,
haying produced less cloth last year, they will
consume more cotton themselves this. How does
this tally with the accounts that India is over-
stocked with goods ? Here are markets open for
goods if they were sought for, and cotton ready for
a market if it was honestly looked for. The fact is
that cotton will not come down to the ports in any-
thing like the quantity they are capable of supply-
ing unless Europeans go up the country and fetch
it. The native dealers may, from the high price
obtainable at the ports, extend their incursions into
districts not yet ransacked for cotton, and in this
way some extra supply may be obtained from this
source. Now, it is very evident that if we are to
have a large increase in our imports of cotton from
India, we must ourselves send out agents to procure
it. It is there to be had, and only wants fetching.
What they did in 1861, they may surely be induced
to do in 1862-3, with the double advantage of open-
ing up new and extended markets for our exports.
We therefore suggest that an association should bo
immediately formed for the purpose of raising from
two or three millions of money,
by issuing share's
at a low amount, and distributing them throughout
the length and breadth of the land, for all are
deeply interested in the cotton trade of this king-
dom, which, for its magnitude, has becorno the baro-
meter of our prosperity. This fund should be em-

if the Government would allow their staff of official
throughout India to act for the association until
they could send out a number of agents of their
own ; these officers of the Government being thickly
scattered throughout the, cotton districts, well

trade is conducted. This would be the means of
