The GUARDIANS and SUBSCRIBERS are respectfully in-
formed, that the Children of the Institution will be EXAMINED on

The weather is promising, and there is hope yet to be
indulged of a fair spring trade. Provisions seem to have
attained their highest price, and to be lowering in a
satisfactory manner. This alone will improve the
general condition of this and every other manufacture.
HOSIERY.—The hosiery trade is, if any change be
observable, somewhat better, the demand having slightly
increased.
The velvet lace patent is still progressing, and we have
seen specimens of good Velvet made from the b )bbin-net
machine. A patent has been obtained for making this
article, both from the warp frame and the rolling locker
bobbin-net machine. By the latter method the web is
made from two distinct warp beams, and an instrument
ttomi-ss betwean the two, which cuts them into separate
pig c: s, leaving a
pile upon each. The warp-method has
a shuffle. The making of muslin lace engagfs the
anxious attention of most of the able. mechanics, and
great efforts are making to improve and cxtend this
manufacture, for which we understand there are consi-
derable orders, and the demand will be more extensive'
when this exeelknt article becomes generally known.—

HER MAJESTY'S DRAWING-
ROOM.
On Saturday, her Majesty the Queen, held a drawing-
room at St. James's Palace, being the first for the sea-
son. It was first appointed to be held on Thursday last,
the 25th instant, but with that kind considerttion for all
classes of her subjects which distinguishes all her Ma-
jesty's acts, and with a view of obviating everything
which might tend to prevent the due and proper obser-
vance of the public fast and humiliation before God, ap-
pointed for Wednesday last, the Queen directed its post-
ponement from Thursday until. Saturday.
The extreme fineness of the weather drew out a very
_large number of well-dressed persons to witness the dis-
play "Of iliac, &Shim; aria 'beauty consequent upon such
occasions.

entrée.
Shortly before one o'clock the line of route described
was lined by a strong body of police of different divi-
sions, under the direction of Superintendents May,
Beresford, Lowry. Hughe,=, Grimwood, &c., and soon
lifter one o'clock the regiment of Royal Horse Guards
(Blue) from Knightsbridge Barracks, preceded by their
splendid band, in gorgeous State dresses, with black
velvet caps, entered Constitution-hill from Hyde Park,
the band playing, to the delight of the assembled multi•
tude. From the garden-gate of Buckingham Palace to
the garden-gate of St. James's Palace, the mall was
lined by a portion of the regiment, stationed by twos,
and the remainder, with the band, passed through the
Stable-yard, lining the route as they proceeded, the
band taking up its position in the open space in front of
St. James's Palace, and opposite to St. James's-street.
About half-past one o'clock, the 2d Regiment of Life
Guards, from Regent's-park Barracks, also preceded by
their splendid band, in magnificent state dresses, with
black velvet caps, marched down St. James's-street,
their band playing, and on reaching the bottom a squa-
dron appointed as an escort, proceeded to Buckingham
Palace. The remainder, with the band, passed through
Hanover gate, and took up their position in the large
quadrangle opposite Marlborough-house, and having on
the first entrance played the national anthem, continued
to perform most of the popular compositions of the day.
The guard of honour in the flag court was a detachment
of the Fusilier Guards.
Some of the company began to arrive shortly after
oce o'clock, and amongst those distinguished individuals,
great officers of state, &c„ who were early in their at•
tendance, we noticed the Duke of Wellington, the Mar-
quis of Lansdowne, Sir C. Grey, Bart. ; Sir J. C. Hob-
house, Viscount Palmerston, the Lord Chancellor, Lord
Campbell. Earl' Clarendon, Viscount Morpeth, Arch-'
bishop of Canterbury, &c. The Foreign Ambassadors,
Ministers, and corps diptontatique, the Bishops, &c., all
entered at the entrance in the Ambassadors'-court.
About a quarter to two o'clock their Royal Highnesses
the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, with the Princess
Mary, and their attendants, entered St. James'e Palace
in two carriages by the garden gate.
At ten minutes to two her Majesty and her R
and Illustrious Consort, Prince Albert took their de-
parture from Buckingham Palace. and proceeded to St
James's Palace. The royal cortege consisted of three
the private state carriages, the two first containing
the members of the royal suite, each drawn by two
black horses, splendidly caparisoned with rich crimson
ribbons, and the coachman and two footmen to each
carriage in state liveries; and the third, containing her
Majesty and Prince Albert, was drawn by two of the
beautiful cream-coloured Hanoverian horses used only
on state occasions. richly caparisoned with deep blue
ribbons, with massive chest-pla'es of the royal arms; the
coachman and four footmen dressed in state liveries with
black velvet capi, the royal escort consisting of a squadron
of Life Guards.
The Queen, we rejoice to say, looked remarkably well,
as did also Prince Albert. They were most enthusias-
tically received along the whole line of the assembled
thousands, and both her Majesty and her Illustrious
Consort returned the congratulations of her loving
subjects with her accustomed grace and condescension.
The Queen was wrapped in a splendid ermine mantle,
and her head dress was a tiara of diamonds., Prince
Albert wore the uniform of a field marshal. Her Ma-
jesty, on alighting, was received by the military bands
playing the national anthem, " God save the Queen."
This was the first drawing room which our gracious
Sovereign has held since the appointment of the present
Government. There were, therefore, to be made not
only the formal presentations of the various members of
that body upon taking office upon their appointments,
but it was also the first similar occasion upon which the
Earl Spencer has officiated in the capacity of Lord
Chamberlain, and the Earl Fortescue as Lord Steward

REMARKABLET
CASE of RESORATION.
A striking instance of the power of scientific art to remedy
the detects of nature has lately occurred in the case of a Mr. F. Balls,
a gentleman residing at Northam, in Norfolk, who, in the year 1842,
on returning from liarlestoue Siarket to Wey bred, where he then re-
sided, sustained so severe a fall from his horse, as to bring on an ill-
ness of several months' duration, during which period his hair con-
tinued to come off, till he became, to use his own terms, " as perfectly
bald as if his head had been shaved ;" and the Rev. J. E. Daniel,
then clergyman of the parish, offered him a wig as a substitute for
his lost hair. Under these circumstances, he was induced to try the
effect of ItONVL AND'S MACASSAR OIL, and it is highly gratifying
to add, with the most happy results. As soon as part of a bottle was
used the growth recommenced, and he has now to boast of a very
thick and luxuriant head of hair, which presents this peculiarity,
that, though prior to losing his hair it evinced no tendency to curl,
the new growth is curly and strong. This fact speaks too strongly
for itself to require observation.—Bell's Messenger.
ROsVLAND'S MACASSAR OIL preserves and reproduces the
Hair ; prevents It from falling off or turning Grcy ; Changes Grey
Hair to its Original Colour; frees it from Scurf and Dandriff, and
makes it beautifully soft and curly.

CASSAR OIL," some under the " implied" sanction of Royalty and

Soon after her Majesty's arrival, and before the re-

carrying before him either a chart or a drawing. These
passedinto the presence of her Majesty, who was
graciously pleased to inspect the productions of the
boys, and to express her approbation of their exemtion.
The boys having retired from the Queen's presenc9,
returned through the midst of the company in the state
rooms, still carrying their charts and drawings, and left

prevailing mode, it may not be uninterebting to state
that figured silks and satins predominated much over
those of a single colour, and had a very rich effect.
Even velvet suffered by the comparison with some of
these most beautiful fabrics. The dress itself was often
of lace, or some other light material over satin ; but it
is in the train—that especial characteristic of the court
dress—that the opportunity for the display of the
choicest manufacture of the country occurs. One of
the exceptions to silk, satin, and velvet, was Lady
Frances Sandon, whotae train was of silver tissue shot

gold tissue, which was also very beautiful. Among the
velvet trains those of the Baroness Brunnow and the
Countess Dietrichsteiu, the one of ruby-coloured velvet
' with a deep and very elegant border
embroidered in
silver, and the other of scarlet velvet, with a magnifi-
cent deep bordering of gold, were pre-eminent for their
effect. The young ladies who were to be presented,
generally appeared in some simple colour, trimmed
merely with a ruche or artificial flowers. Among the
dresses, the magnificent point lace dress of the Countess
of Dundonald must not pass unnoticed. Indeed, her
Ladyship's whole costume had a moat striking appear-
ance. The diamonds with which she was adorned were
placed on bright green leaves, both in the stomacher
and in the wreath on the head, and it is impossible to
exaggerate the agreeable and beautiful effect which
such an arrangement produced. The Honourable Ars.
Montague was another instance of the mixture of
jewels with green leaves with a similar effect. The
I tisplay of diamonds both on the dresses and on the head
were generally very magnificent. Among the more
costly and superb jewels may be noticed those worn by
the Countess of Ranfurly. Lady Guernsey wore a row
of orient pearls of immense value, a bandeau of fine
brilliants, and other valuable jewels. The diamonds and
costume of Mrs. Samuel Platt were very beautiful. Mrs.
Cornewall and her daughter wore rows of pearls of great
value. The Countess of March appeared in a very hand-
some tiara of diamonds. Lady Eleanor Balfour's dress
displayed a mass of the most magnificent jewels ; and
Mrs. William Stuart wore a necklace of brilliants, with
a cross suspended of very large size indeed. But wag
nificent as these were, there were no diamonds at the
drawing-room at all to equal the necklace worn by the
Baroness North ; every stone was in itself a jewel of
enormous value. The costumes of the Duchess of Bed-
ford, Lady Peel, the Countess of Jersey, and Lad-
Clementina Villiers, the Countess of Clarendon, the
Countess of Radnor, and Lady Palmerston, were re-

STATE OF TRADE.
FOREIGN WOOL TRADE, LEEDS, MARCH 26.—N0
great extent of business has been done in foreign wools
this week, but the prospects for the spring trade appear
more encouraging.
ENGLISH WOOL MARKET, LEEDS, MARCH 26.—The
transactions in wool this week have not been large, and
are limited to a supply of the immediate wants of the
manufacturers. In prices we do not quote any alteration
from last we ek's rates.
WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET, MARCH 26.—Though
we cannot note any great increase in the sales of this
week, we have certainly had more inquiry,4and prices
are fully as firm as last week. There is au opinion that
we have seen our lowest point for the present. •
LEEDs.—The cloth markets et both Cloth Halls have
been of much the same character as the markets during
the last few weeks. The demand continues to be prin
cipally for goods of low qualities for shipping ; but fine
goods, considering the season, continue to be exceed-
ingly dull of sale. Prices continue steady, and the
stocks moderate. Business continues to improve in the
wareheuses a little. The wholesale houses buy with the
greatest caution. The country drapers are, however,
purchasing very freely for Easter, and foreign houses are
moving a little more than they have done for some time.
On the whole, the prospects are considered more en-
couraging than might have been expected a few weeks ago.
BRADFORD MARKET, MARCH 25.—There is a steady
demand for combing wool, and as the supply is a bare
one, prices are firm. Short wools continue in good re-
quest at, former prices. There is considerable improve
molt in the yarn market, both for the home and export
trade. The spinners are mostly working to order, and
a cot.siderable number of idle frames have been brought
into requisition. There is a slight increase in prices.
The business in the piece market has a stirring aspect.
Large purchases still continue to be made, both for
America and the Continent. We cannot, however, hear
of any improvement in prices, which continue stationary.
A deal of silk is now used in our trade.
MaNcHEsTEIt, THURSDAY EVENING.—WQ have no
decided change in our cloth market this week, though
more inquiries, perhaps, by the larger buyers, but
which, as far as has transpired, has led to no important
transac ion. As the staple is rather easier to buy, a

TRADE OF LEICESTER. The London trade still con-
tinues very flat; country houses are making cautiously,
and no improvement has yet manifested itself in the
demand. Spinners are still working short time. Wools
are steady. The cotton market is flatter, and one house
has this week given notice of a reduction of one shilling
per bundle from the last list.—Leicester Journal.
THE LACE TRADE.—We have had a few buyers, and
the market continues muoh in the same state we last
reported—rather quiet, without any change in prices.

THE FAREWELL AND THE WELCOME
Farewell to the suit which has serv'd me so long !
When the winter was cold, and the tempests were atroal,
Farewell to the the Wrapper, which kept me 113 warn,
When busy "Jack Frost" would have frozen my form.
Farewell to my trousers, my coat, and my vest.
With stout Winter-cloth and with fashion the best,
Farewell (for the work of the Winter is done) ;
Farewell to the suit made by MOSES and SON!
Farewell 1 an affectionate, hearty farewell!
To my choice Winter garments. which none can excel.
Yes, I bid them farewell—yet I ne'er can forget
Bow they ecreeu'd me from cold—how they screen'd me
from wet.
To the dress-mart of MOSES I ever would cling,
And I heartily welcome my suit for the Spring.
Right welcome ! ye samples of tasty attire!
Your make, and your style, and your /It I admire.

In a manner which rivals the whole of the trade.
