STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, July 22.
There has not been much business ; the accounts from
India, which were expected to improve the market,
having created disappointment. Manufacturers and
spinners have still employment on unfinished orders,
and are not pressing for new business, consequently they
maintain a firm attitude towards buyers, and there is no
change in prices. The market is not so inactive, how-
ever, as at the close of last week, and, as regards the
home trade, a more cheerful feeling prevails in the anti-
cipation of a better fall trade. Bath in cloth and yarn
prices are steady. Messrs. John Slagg and Co. report
of the cloth market :—" We have had a quiet but steady
market throughout the week, without change in prices.
Today there has been a more cheerful feeling and an
improved demand, and a fair amount of business has
been done at very full rates." Messrs. G. Fraser, Son,
and, Co., say of the market generally :—There is but
little or no alteration to notice in to-day's market ;
prices are without change, and the market without much
animation."

Luxe, July 22.

The cloth trade is rather quiet just now, and business
is scarcely so brisk as it was a week or two ago. This
apparent relapsing seems to be principally occasioned by
the somewhat unsettled state of the wool trade. The
price of wool having receded at the late wool sales, the
merchants are unwilling to purchase goods M the prices
demanded by the manufacturers, and consequently busi-
ness is checked. As soon, however, as things assume a
more settled aspect, there is little doubt that there will
be a good demand for woolen cloths. In the cloth-halls
this morning a quieter tone prevailed than on Saturday,
and there was little disposition to operate ; conse-
quently, transactions were only to a limited extent, and
chiefly comprised tweeds and other light fabrics.
The report of this day's Huddersfield market is as
follows :—" The price of wools having been to a certain
extent settled at the recent sales, those parties who held
back in expectation of a large reduction in price and
consequent fall in cloth, have visited the market to-
day, and trade is brisker. Shipping houses have bought
low goods, other houses plain goods.'

Country Markets.

LIVERPOOL-Juvr 22.

There was a good attendance to-day. Wheat and flour
met a good consumptive demand, and, there being a better
show of samples than of late, a considerable amount of
business resulted, at Friday's prices, being ld to 2d per
701bs ovor the rates of Tuesday last for fine qualities of
wheat, and full prices for ordinary runs, and flour. Oats
and oatmeal, with a fair demand, fully maintained -late
rates. Barley, beans, and peas in limited request, owing
to the high prices asked. Indian corn scarcely so much
inquired for as of late ; however, holders being generally
firm, tho sales made were generally at Friday's rates, or is
per qr. over those of this day week.

TURKEY.

CONSTANTINOPLE, July 14.—Another atrocious
crime has been committed near the capital, on
board the English barque the Globe. She had a
mixed crew, the master, the mate, two sailors, and
a boy being English, and the five other sailors
Italians—namely, three Neapolitans, a Venetian,
and a Triestine. These latter determined to
assassinate all the English on board, take away
whatever they could, and make their escape in
the boat. The. vessel was coming in from the
Black Sea to the Bosphorus when they re-
salved to carry out their design. They had
carefully prepared everything, and went even
so far as to secure all the table knives which could
have served as arms, About 3 o'clock in the morn-
ing, on Monday last, the boy awoke, hearing a
groan near him, and, looking up, he saw one of
the Italians busy cutting the throat of one of the
English sailors, who was asleep. The boy, fright-
ened, rushed to the cabin where the master and
the mate (his brother) were sleeping to give the
alarm ; they had only just time to shut themselves
up in the cabin when the murderers, having shot
the other English sailor who was at the wheel, came
up and tried to force the door. Seeing that they
could not succeed, they lowered the boat, took
with them whatever they could lay hands on, and
pushed off for the Asiatic coast. When they were
gone the master and mate brought in the vessel
with great difficulty,'and gave information of what
had happened to Admiral !Grey and the Turkish
authorities of the port. The Admiral sent off im-
mediately the Recruit, one of the Prussian gun-
boats, in pursuit of the fugitives, while the Turks
gave a detachment of marine soldiers. After
followinc, the coast .for about thirty miles, they
got the first information at a place called Shivi,
where three European sailors had been seen.
A party of soldiers was landed, who attacked them,
and two were captured and identified by the master.
The third escaped. While this party was chasing
these three the Recruit went on to the next place
and caught another. There are indications that the
fifth man has been murdered by his accomplices.
The Recruit has brought back the three who were
caught, and they will, I hear, be sent to Malta to be
tried there. _ _

On Saturday, at 3 o'clock a.m., the town of Pera
was put in commotion by the cries of " Fire," and
before two hours had passed six wooden houses in
one of the narrowest streets were burnt down, in
spite of the speedy assistance which English,
French, and Turkish engines rendered. The fire
was only stopped by the storehouses on each side.
While the fire lasted the plate of Major Brett, who
lives in the same street, but was that day in the
country, was stolen. The practice is on these oc-
casions to remove as much as possible from the
neighbouring houses. This was done in Major
Brett's house, and when the things were taken
back again the plate-chest had disappeared, toge-
ther with that officer's Indian medals.

ROYAL OREVORNE GARDENS.

BUTCHERS' CHARITABLE INSTITUTION.
The first day's fete for the benefit of the above excel-
lent association took place yesterday, at this highly.
Popular place of resort, and was attended with that
marked success which is the result of unsparing liberality
and well-directed efforts. It affords us much pleasure
to allude to this institution, the history of which, though
short, is pregnant with good example. It is now less
than thirty years since a few benevolent individuals de-
termined to combine for the benefit of their fellow-
tradesmen, yet the management can now with pride
point to a sum of 14,0001. funded in trust, to thirty con-
venient almshouses, and to a list of above 600 aged,
Widowed, and orphan recipients, whose necessities have
been relioved, and who have been rendered, compara-
tively speaking, independent. The good ju lgment ne-
cessary to insure such triumphant results no doubt
guided the committee in their selection of Cremorne and
the Ashburnham Pavilion for this year's demonstration;
and we are happy to bear testimony to the excellence of
the arrangements. and the number of the visitors bene-
fitted thereby. Especial notice must be taken of the
Pavilion, which was changed as if by magic from the
banquetting hall to the dancing saloon, where an excel-
lent band, brilliant illuminative features, and artistic
decorations rendered the scene of that Fairy like charac-
ter which exceeds any brief description, and which ren-
dered the evening a red letter one in the calendar of
charity fetes. The attractions of last evening, though
Co great, will be increased this day by the addition of a
balloon ascent and other novelties.

MARKET NEW 3.---(This Day)

'CORN EXCHANGE.
Although the supply of English wheat in to•day's mar.
ket was very moderate, and chiefly composed of Monday's
unsold samples, the demand 'for all kinds ruled heavy, and
prices were barely supported.
Foreign wheat, the show of which was on the increase,
moved off heavily, but no actual change took place in
value.
Floating cargoes were dull. In barley a fair business
was doing. Malt sold steadily, at extreme rates.
We were fairly supplied with oats, which sold slowly,
and inferior kinds were drooping.
Beans, peas, and flour ruled dull, at barely late rates.

BILL.

This bill was read a third time an4,passed.
COMMONS INCLOS/Attigo. 2) BILL.
The Lords' amendments to this i were eunsidered
and agreed O.
THE BISHOPS OF LONDON AND DURHAM
RETIREMENT BILL.

Lord PALMERSTON moved the second reading of
the Bishops of London and Durham Retirement Bill.
He explained the circumstances which led to the intro-
duction of the present measure. Government were con-
templating the introduction of a general measure for
the retirement of aged and infirm bishops, when he re-
ceived communications from the bishops of London and
Durham, intimating their willingness to retire. He had
at one time intended to couple with this measure a pro-
posal for the division of the diocese of London into two ;
but, on consultation with the Ecclesiastical Commission-
ers, he was induced to postpone this question for the
present, and to confine himself simply to the measure
for the retirement of the bishops. He emphatically re-
pudiated the charge of simony, and contended, on the
contrary, that the measure was honourable to the bishops
in question. He passed in review the various alterna-
tives which had been suggested, contending that none
of them were equal to the course he himself proposed,
and concluded by moving the second reading.
Mr. HENLEY rose to move that, the debate be ad-
journed. It was unprecedented that a bill should be
read a second time which had not yet been delivered to
members. He was quite aware that a copy of the bill
was to be had at the Votes-office, but its accuracy might
be judged of from the fact that it bore on the back of
the bill to have come down to them from the Commons.
He did not see why it could not be discussed to-morrow,
when no business of importance was before them.
Mr. GLA.DSTONE seconded the motion.
Lord PALMERSTON gave way, and the bill was
postponed till to-morrow.
The house then adjourned.

EGYPT.

ALEXANDRIA, July 21.—Six boxes of letters,
forming part of the India mail closed in London on
the 26th of June, have been left behind in Egypt,
and will be forwarded only with the next mail.
They consisted of one box for Calcutta,two for
Madras, one for Bombay, one for the auritius,
and one for the Reunion. The cause of this unto-
ward event was that one of the camels laden with
these boxes, being_ a wild unmanageable animal,
strayed away from the other camels and was- not
found until 24 hours after.
The steamer Cadiz which might have loft Suez
for Bombay with the mails on the 7th was detained
until the evening of the Bth, but as no traces of the
missing camel had been discovefed she had to start
without them.

TURKEY.

CONSTANTINOPLE, July 14.—Another atrocious
crime has been committed near the capital, on
board the English barque the Globe. She had a
mixed crew, the master, the mate, two sailors, and
a boy being English, and the five other sailors
Italians—namely, three Neapolitans, a Venetian,
and a Triestine. These latter determined 'to
assassinate all the English on board, take away
whatever they could, and make their escape in
the boat. The vessel was coming in from the
Black Sea to the Bosphorus when they re-
solved to carry out their design. They had
carefully prepared everything, and went even
so far as to secure all the table knives which could
have served as arms,- Aboutr 3 o'clock in the morn-
ing, on Monday last, the boy awoke, hearing a
groan near him, and, looking up, he saw one of
the Italians busy cutting the throat of one of the
English sailors, who was asleep. The boy, fright-
ened, rushed to the cabin where the master and
the mate (his brother) were sleeping to give the
alarm; they had only just time to shut themselves
up in the cabin when the murderers, having shot
the other English sailor who was at the wheel, came
up and tried to force the door. Seeing that they
could not succeed, they lowered the boat., took
with them whatever they could lay hands on, and
pushed off for the Asiatic coast. When they were
gone the mater and mate brought in the vessel
with great difficulty,:and gave information of what
had happened to Admiral rGrey and the Turkish
authorities of the port. The Admiral sent off im-
mediately the Recruit, one of the Prussian gun-
boats, in pursuit of the fugitives, while the Turks
gave a detachment of marine soldiers. After
following the coast for about thirty miles, they
got the first information at a place called Shivi,
where three European sailors had been seen.
A party of soldiers was landed, who attacked them,
and two were captured and identified by the master.
The third escaped. While this party was chasing
these three the Recruit went on to the next place
and caught another. There are indications that the
fifth man has been murdered by his accomplices.
The Recruit has brought back the three who were
caught, and they will, I hear, be sent to Malta to be
tried there.

On'Saturday, at 3 o'clock a.m., the town of Pera
was put in commotion by the cries of " Fire," and
before two hours had passed six wooden houses in
one of the narrowest streets were burnt down, in
spite of the speedy assistance which English,
French, and Turkish engines rendered. The fire
was only stopped by the storehouses on each side.
While the fire lasted the plate of Major Brett, who
lives in the same street, but was that day in the
country, was stolen. The practice is on these oc-
casions to remove as much as possible from the
neighbouring houses. This was done in Major
Brett's house, and when the things were taken
back again the plate-chest had disappeared, toge-
ther with that officer's lndian. medals.

is no change of purpose, no voluntary overthrow of
what is already done. Each successive Minister is
bound to follow his predecessor in building up the
fabric of national greatnez,.. Hence we have con-
dolence in ourselves ; we were not afraid during
the war to expose our d.eticiencies to the utmost ;
the jubilee and the sneering of our enemies were
nothing to us ; we reformed and re-created our
military system unmoved by either.
In thus accepting in a certain sense the charges
which the Assembl6e makes of ambition and a wish
to rule, we have in view merely to place in a clear
light the folly of its diatribe 3. It is evident that a
nation that feels its own capacity and destinies is
hardly likely to forfeit its good name for such
trifling advantages as would reward a breach of the
Treaty of Paris. Why should we wish to keep a
few steamers in the Black Sea ? Why should We
wish to prevent the French Ambassador giving
judicious counsels to the Sultan ? A nation like
ours can dispense with such petty intrigues, which
are more suited to the bureaux of third-rate conti-
nental diplomatists. We know the genius, the
power, and the good qualities of France ; that on
the continent her influence is, and must always be,
great ; and that, as a military monarchy, she must
be to her immediate neighbours of more importance,
than ourselves. There is room enough in the world
for both of us, and the difference of our parts ought
to conduce to the extinction of all jealousy between
us. Let the world bo assured that the very fact
England is a country beyond all others universal in
its authority is a chief reason why we look with no
displeasure on the legitimate influence which our
allies have a right to demand.

Prisoner (in a firm voice)—No, not at present.
Mr. Leech said that was all the evidtlice he was

asked that the prisoner might be remanded for a few

Mr. Tyrwhitt then remanded the prisoner.

The Melbourne Argus, in its summary of the
26th, states that during the week no escorts ar-
rived from Fiery Creek, Maryborough, M'lvor,
Daisy Hill, and Avoca, in consequence of the
heavy rains which had recently fallen ; that the
season had been one of continuous wet weather,
which had seriously interfered with mining opera-
tions. Notwithstanding this the escort returns
were quite up to those of the previous year, in
which the weather was throughout favourablß,
while the amount shipped in the present season was
greatly in excess of that in the corresponding periods
of the two previous years.
The receipts and shipments in the first seven
months of 1854, 1855, and 1856 were as follow :
Receipts by escort 964,430 1,141,144 1,578,995
Shipments
Late advises from England vice New York had
been received at Melbourne.
