SPURTING INTELLIGENCE.

MANCHESTER—TUESDAY EVENING.
The attendance this morning was quite in keeping with
the near approach of an event upon which so many thou.
sands arc well known to be pending. Our quotation was
laid, in one or two instances, against the leading favourites.
The grand revolution was in the rapid rise of Bellona, and
the almost total downfal of St. Bennett and Abraham
Newland, neither of whom was in the slightest favour, so
decidedly was the spirit to " get on" the two mares. The
business finished at 100 to 8, taken ; St. Bennett's and
Abraham's prices being 20 to 1 and upwards. George
was backed for a little money at 33 to 1, and then at 200
to 7. The prices of the present hour cannot be expected
to be those of the morning, as every post must introduce
us to the opinion formed of the horses arrived, and also
their condition, &c.

STATE OF TRADE.—There was no material
change in the market yesterday, though, perhaps, the demand
was not quite equal to that of the preceding Tuesday, especially
for power-loom printing cloths, which, in some few cases, we
believe were sold a shade lower than last week. _Stocks, both
of goods and yarn, especially of the latter, continue extremely
light, the demand taking off the entire production at steady
.prices ; and, though the business done is not very profitable, it
is generally sound and healthy, and encourages an expectation
of ititure improvement.—Manchester Guardian.
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY,
Amt. 27.—There is no change to report in the flannel market
to-day. The demand has been slack, and prices low as usual.
The wool market continues heavy, at former prices.
HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, April 28.—Al-
though there was a fair demand for fine woollens and light
fancy goods, generally speaking the market was not so brisk
as might have been expected, if it was only on account
of the extremely beautiful pweather. Nor do prices
much improve, but they are very firm. Orders art•
inure numerous, and stocks of saleable goods very light, so that
better prices are remanded, and must shortly be realised. There
is more animation in the wool market, at prices much the same
as of late, The warehouses are tolerably busy, and better prices
are obtained; but we fear the manufacturer is yet far from
obtaining a satisfactory remuneration.
SUBSTITUTE FOR EMBALMMENT.--When M.
Gaunal made his prrless public he was not aware himself, per-
haps, of the use to which it could be applied. Several weeks
ago the body of a boy, murdered under very suspicious circum-
stances, was brought to the Morgue—the place where all persons
found drowned or murdered, and who are not immediately recor,
raised, are exposed—and the veins were injected according to the
plan laid down by M. Gaunal. The corpse of the poor boy re-
mained several weeks in as fresh a state as when it was found a
few hours after the murder. It has pot yet been recognised,
but one cannot but admire the facility thus offered for recogni-
tion. But for this discovery, the utmost time that the body
could have remained at the Morgue would have been five or six
days. M. Gaunal's process is extremely simple, and attended
with very little expense. He makes a iolution, composes! of
sulphate of alum and hot water, in prop.oi tion of two pounds of
the sulphate to a pint of hot water, and injects by the right caro-
tid artery ; in summer three quarts of this liquid, and in winter
wanrding to the temperature.—Paris Letter.
