(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
COWES, WEDNESDAY.—The match for the Queen's
Cup on Tuesday was unfortunate in point of wind.
The following yachts started :
The Bacchante, 80 tons.
•
The Freak, 60 tons.
The Arrow, 84 tons.
The Gondola, 87 tons.

The wind was light froth the north and east. The
Arrow took the lead, followed by the Freak, Gondola,
and Bacchante, the wind falling cff the Freak got
ahead, but the Arrow rounded the Nab first. The
wind now soutberned, and the Freak again took the
lead for a short time, but on passing the station vessel
off Cowes, the Arrow took her old pace, and the
Gondola gave in off Yarmouth. The wind again fell
off. They now got a breeze from the north-east, and
on rounding the western station vessel the Freak wir,
nearly ten minutes astern of the Arrow, and the Bac-
chante forty.six. The contest from that time was
considered to be between the Arrow and Freak; but
how uncertain is fortune! those vessels stood over to
the north shore for a breeze, each striving to beat the
other, neither thinking one moment about the Bac-
chante; they appeared to have forgotten whom they
were contending against, and that her pilot had won
more matches than any other man. AU was light and
bright on the north shore; a dark cloud hung over
the south. " There's wind under that cloud," said
deride, "let's hug the,island." The old free-;trader
had watched many a weary night the winds, the
waves, and the Philistines, and foreknew the signs
better. He was right again. Caught a southerly
breeze and passed the starting vessel first, on doing
which he was hailed from her and the yachts, " The
Arrow a,hov ;" but no reply till the word came from
the Royal Yacht Society's secretary, when Corke re-
plied it was the "Bacchante." It was at this time
very dark, 9 27 r.m. At 9 39 the Arrow passed, and
her crew could not for some time believe but they
were the first vessel. The Freak arrived at 9 45.
The Arrow, by misti.ke, rounded the wrong vessel,
in the dark mistaking her for the starting vessel.
THE ROYAL YACHT SOCIETY'S DINNER, AUG. 19.
—The muster to-day was much more numerous than
common, between sixty and seventy noblemen and
gentlemen being present, including the Commhdore
and Vice-Commodore of the New York Yacht Club,
and a moat agreeable evening was spent, though a
little anti-free-trade sauce was served up.

London, England, 1851-08-21

our manufacturers during the laq few months of a good
demand for ►pring goods, has proved so deiwive that
it has produced the effect of suspending for a time the
preparations which usually at this period are being
vigorously pushed on for the autum❑al trade. In
thrown silk very little is doing ; the few transactions
taking place are simply for present and urgent re-
quirements, but have no bearing whatever on the
general tone of the market, which at present, as re-
gards prices, is good.
HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY.—The market to day
has been a slight improvement upon last Tuesday.
Still there has not been that activity and briskness in
the transactions that is customary at this period of
the year, when the trade is considered to be in a
healthy state. The goods in demaed are of a low
quality, and such as will leave neither manufacturer
and merchant any large amount of remuneration or
profit. A fair business has been done in the wool
warehouses, at improved prices.
LEEDS, TUESDAY.—The markets at the cloth halls
to-day have been rather dull, but on Saturday last a
fair business was done. The manufacturers are pretty
well employed, and prices continue very firm. Busi-
ness in the warehouses is quiet, compared with the
last few weeks.

THE; GRE A T EXHIBITION.

The polteti returns of yesterday exeioit a considerable
falling off from those of Tuesday; end the nine o'c!oek
experiment, to all appearenc?., sciil cintinues une.ppre- '
elated. The numbers up to three o'clock were—
At 10 o'olJek 4.193
At 11 o'clock 16 556
At 12 o'clock . 26 849
At 1 o'clock ..„ 34.248
At 2 o'clock ~. 37 954
At 3 o'clock .„ ..„ ~. 40,907
At this time the number of persons who had left was
2,494, so that the largest number which the Crystal
Palace contained during the day did not reach 40,000.
The sale of s2ason tickets produced 11 10s. The
money taken at the doors amounted to 2,2171. Bs.. mak-
ing a total of 2,218/. 18s. The police report gives the
number of visitors at 44,567.
The rise in the thermometer in the course of the day
has been considerable, being from 62 to 78.
The official announcement with respect to the closing
of the Exhibition does not seem to have met with uni-
versal approbation, at least so far as the exhibitors
are concerned. Mlny of them complain that their chance
of receiving their medals, according to the present ar-
rangement, is very remote indeed.
Among the visitors yesterday was a new arrival in
England, M. Baroche, Minister of Foreign Affairs in
France. M. Leon Faucher is also still a daily visitor, as
well as M. Odilon Barrot.

TO CORRESPONDENTS

" F.R."—Sympathizing though we do most cordially with
our correspondent's enthusiasm, we must nevertheless
altogether discountenance his suggestion. A grand
banquet would be wholly out of the question just now
anywhere in the metropolis, from the ill health of the
great exile and by reason of his speedy departure for
the United States—in the Crystal Palace, however, it
would under the most favourable circumstances be
wholly out of the question, seeing that that building
was constructed not for the purpose of insulting any
single one among the European powers—be that
power Austria or be it Russia—but with a view to
the diffusion of s -mtiments of amity among all the
various races of Christendom.

ASTLE Y'S THEATRE.

Another grand hit has been made by Mr. Batty
which promises to become an immense favourite with
the visitors of Astley's. Last night this enterprising
manager brought out a version of the popular opera
of ll Prodigo, familiar to all, under the name of
Azael, the libretto of which was supplied by the
veteran Fitzball. All the hippodramatic appliances
and means of the establishment were brought into re-
quisition, not, however, so much as essentials as ac-
cessories. The scene of the square of Memphis was
admirable, and especially so was the interior of the
Temple, in which the stage was thronged with
characters. The effect of the voluptuous
group of revellers was striking and gorgeous, and
drew down peals of applause. Azael was played by
Mr. Mattocks, Reuben by Mr. Dale, and the heroine
by Miss Barrett, all of whom sustained their parts
most commendably. The piece was triumphantly
successful, and the principal performers were called
before the curtain amid universal applause.

THEATRE ROYAL, BIRMINGHAM.

The inimitable and mirth-provoking comedian,
Mr. Wright, from the Adelphi Theatre, London, has
been developing his versatile genius and character-
istic personation in some of his newest and best cha-
racters. To say Wright surpassed himself during
his present visit is. to indicate but very faintly hew
he succeeded in drawing the play-goers of Birming-
ham in no inconsiderable numbers during the week.
Last night (Friday) Mr. Wright took his benefit, on
which occasion he appeared as Billy Lackaday in
Sweethearts and Wives, and Mr. Simmons in The
Spitalfields' Weaver. The house was crowded to ex-
cess, and a more brilliant audience we have nut seen
within the walls of our theatre for some time. Mr.
Wright was thoroughly successful, and richly de-
served all he got—a good benefit and thunders of ap-
plause. The stage- manager announced that, by de-
sire, Mr. Wright had made a re-engagement for five
nights more, and would appear next week in some of
the charactars which the shortness of his first en-
gagement prevented his appearing in at an earlier
period of his visit.—Birmingham Mercury of Saturday.

THE EARL OF SHAFTESITRY.

The Marquis of LANSDOWNE rose to move that a
humble address be presented to her Majesty stating the
merits of the services of the Earl of Shaftesbury. That
that House for 36 years, and never had the arduous
duties which devolved upon that office been discharged
more diligently or more efficiently. During that
time the duty which devolved upon the Chairman of
Committees on private Bills had greatly increased, and
the Noble Earl had discharged those duties on every
occasion most efficiently—(Hear, hear)—and although
no person entertained stronger political opinions than
did the Noble Earl, yet he had never suffered those po-
litical opinions to interfere with the efficient and the just
discharge of the duties of his office.—(Hear, hear.)
The Noble Marquis concluded by formally proposing the
Address.
Lord STANLEY seconded the motion, and from his
short experience in that House he begged to state that
ho concurred in all that had fallen from the Noble Mar-
quis in favour of the great ability, energy, ,
and imparti-
ality of the Earl of Shaftesbury, and he believed that the
Noble Lord who had been elected to the office would e
found a not unworthy successor to the Noble Earl.
Lord BROUGHAM bore testimony to the great dili-
gence and impartiality of the Earl of Shaftesbury in the
very important duties which had devolved upon him. He
had known the Earl of Shaftet bury for a third of a cen-
ter), and it was impossible for any panegyric to be
pronounced upon him which could be too high.
The address wig then agreed to nem. con.
CASE OF CHARLES PENNELL MEASOH.
The Earl of ST. GERMANS then ruse, pursuant to
notice, to present a petition from Charks Pennell
Measur, lately a clerk in the money-order department of
the General Post office, praying for inquiry as to his
removal from that office, and to move tor the appoint-
ment cf a Select Committee to inquire into the allega-
tions contained in the said petition. The Noble Earl
then proceeded to state that the clerks in the money-
order office had presented a memorial, the object of
which (as we understuod). was to übtain som© additional
advantages; but the language of it, although strong, was
not disrespectful; and it was supposed that, in conse-
quence of the presentation of the memorial, certain al-
terations had taken place in the manner in which pro-
motions had taken place in that office, and that, instead
of the senior clerk being appointed to succeed an officer
ho had died, a gantboian bad been promoted to that

HOLLAND.

THE HAGUE, FEB. B.—A project of law has just
been distributed among the members of both Cham-
bers, for modifying the tariffs in the Netherlands
East Indies. It proposes to reduce to 6 per cent.
the impost duty on all agricultural implements and
machines, on mining instruments and machinery of
all sorts.

Netherland vessels, bearing a certificate of the
Netherlands origin of the articles imported, shall
pay no duty. To this project is added a document
empowering all the Dutch settled in the East
Indies to work those lands which contain rich
minerals, except in the island of Java and Bores.
The document referred to gis es it as the opinion of
competent judges that greater encouragement should
be given to the exploring of rich mineral soils, both
to private individuals and to public companies. A
commission, composed of competent persons, has been
consulted on the question as to whether it would be
advisable to permit private individuals to work the
tin mines of Bored and in general the other mines of
the Netherlands Indies.

The commission considered it advisable that pri-
vate persons should take part in the working of the
mines, but in regard to the mines of Burea opinions
were divided.

The Government accordingly took the opinion of
those who considered that the Government should
retain the working of these mines, the product of
which forma a very important quuta of the annual
contributions sent by the colony to the mother
country.

The treaty of commerce and navigation between
the Netherlands and Prussia is now so far complete
in its preliminary proposals, that it is ready to be
submitted to the Congress of the Zollverein at
Wisbaden.
