TATTERSALLS'-(THIS EVENING.)

In consequence of the Hereford meeting, and the late
period of the season, but few members were present, and
speculation was of a very limited description. For the
Liverpool Cup 7 to 2 was taken about Meg Merrilies, at
which price she left off firm, 700 to 200 having been taken
in one bet in the City during the morning. Underhand
was well supported at 14 to 1, while the Brewer declined
rapidly during the afternoon to 20 to 1 (offered).

" The aim of the author is to present a common-sense ♦iew
of the Causes, Nature, Consequences, and Treatment of this
Disease, as also to free these questions from the Professional
Fallacies, the Popular Delusions, and the exaggerations of
Quackery by which they have hitherto been surrounded, to the

IMPORTS.

Cotton Piece Goods—There has been little or no
activity in our import business duting, the fort.
night, and transactions have taken place for distant
delivery at comparatively low rates. In gray shirt-
ings the business has been very moderate, as also
in gray domestics, while gray madapollams alone
have slightly improved.
Bleached and Fancy Goods—The transactions in
bleached shin tings have been on an increased scale ;
bleaeled midapollams are quite dull.

THE PENINSULAR MAILS.

The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam-
ship Tagus, Capt. W. B. Hall, arrived at South-
ampton at 4 p.m. yesterday, with mails from Lisbon
of the 17th inst., Oporto the 18th, and Vigo the
19th, in charge of. Lieut. Card, R.N., Admiralty
agent. _ . .

-The Royal Mail steamship Avon, with the out-
ward Brazil mails, arrived at Lisbon on the 13th at
4 p.m., and sailed again at 11 a.m. on the 14th.
A letter from, Lisbon, dated June 17, says

" The Prince of Wales attended Divine service at St.
George's Chapel on Sunday, when the sermon was preached
by the Rev. G. S. Prior, resident chaplain, who had pre-
viousiy had the honour of being presented to his Royal
Highness with the deputation of British merchants and the
gentlemen connected with the embassy and other depart-
ments of her Majesty's service. On Monday the Prince
was prevented from paying a promised visit to the Free
School, which has been so liberally built and supported by
British residents, in consequence of the King of Portugal
having unknowingly arranged for the same hour a trip to
one of the Royal palaces south of the Tagus. During the
last three days his Royal Highness, accompanied by his
Majesty the King Dom Pedro V. and Mr. Howard, the
British Minister, has been absent from Lisbon upon a
shooting excursion at Mafra, whence the Royal party started
yesterday for the lines of Torres Vedras, intending to visit
Batalta Agabarotta and other points of historical interest,
en route for the capital, where they are expected to
arrive by the Santarem Railway to-morrow evening.
It is understood that the Prince will entertain their Ma-
jesties at dinner on board the yacht Osborne on Monday,
and leave the Tagus on Tuesday for England, when he
will be accompanied by the hearty good wishes of the
British residents as well as by the Portuguese, who have
been delighted by his kind, affable, and amiable manners.
" There was a want of first-class bills on London this
packet. London, at three months, was generally effected at

TEE .HANDEL COMMEMORATION.

The " Dettingen To Deum" formed the first part of yes-
terday's performance. The second part was devoted to
selections from " Belshazzar," " Saul," and " Samson."
From "Belshazzar," the recitative, " Rejoice, my coun-
trymen," and the chorus, " Sing, 0 ye heavens," were
gives., and Mr. Weiss delivered the former with the greatest
force .and feeling. The selection from " Saul" consisted
of the well-known chorus, "Envy, eldest born of Hell,"
and the squally well-known " Dead March." The selec-
tion from " Samson" consisted of five pieces, including the
air, "Return, 0 God of Hosts," which was most beauti-
fully given by Miss Dolby; and in the splendid air, " Let
the Bright Seraphim," the singing of Madame Novelle
and playing of Mr. Harper were everything that could be
desired. The other selections from " Samson" consisted of
three choruses, the best executed of which was " Let
their celestial concerts."
Selections from " Judas Maccabmus" formed the third
and concluding part of the performances. " Sound an
alarm," was most splendidly rendered by Mr. Sims Reeves.
The selection concluded with " See, the conquering hero
comes," the trio in which was admirably sung by Mesdames
Novelle and Rudersdorff and Miss Dolby.

The wheat trade since our last, under the influence -of
fine weather, large arrivals from abroad, and depressed an:
counts from the south, has been exceedingly inactive, and
scarcely a transaction has taken place in foreign, and the
prices are little better than nominal.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

A fair average supply of beasts was on offer in to-day's
market for the time of year. Prime breeds were in fair
request, at full prices. Otherwise, the beef trade ruled
heavy. The show of sheep was tolerably extensive, and
the mutton trade was in a very iitactive state, at Monday's
decline in value. The supply being large, lambs met a dull
inquiry, and late rates were barely supported. We had a
heavy sale for calves, at about stationary prices. The
supply was good. Pigs and much cows were dull, but not
cheaper,

COPPER MINES OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA.--The
, copper mines of South AustTalia are an admitted and a
great fact. The mines alreadY opened and in progress of
development which produce
ores of such extraordinary
high percentage in the yield of copper are solely confinsd
to the northern districts of the colony, being all situated
north of the town of Adelaide. The principal aro the Burra
Burra, Kapunda, .Chambers, North Rhine, and Appealina.
As a practical demonstration of these remarkable results,
and of the peculiar richness of the ore, a block of malachite
and copper ore has been forwarded from Chambers's mine,
and is now deposited at the London offices of the North
Rhine Mining Company. It i§ a sample of great interest,
as well as value. Its weight is about 10 cwt., and the
yield estimated at 70 per cent. of metallic copper. We be-
lieve that neither so large nor so rich a block of ore has
ever before been seen in this country,—Mining Journal,

yet a single little word would put an end to all
that. Let a simple No' be pronounced by three
powers, and all the world, including France, would
understand it. This little but powerful No' would
be in a practical form a defensive alliance between
Austria, England, and Prussia. An opportune
alliance is the best means of preventing war. If
Prussia and England had joined Austria, two
months ago, to oppose the aggressor, Europe would
have been spared great disquietude and many
onerous sacrifices. This triple alliance, however,
will, we feel certain, arise from future events, but
unfortunately not until the flames which might
have been smothered at the beginning shall have
produced a general conflagratton."

BOROUGH AND SPITALFIELDS.

Only limited supplies of home-grown potatoes have
reached us since Monday last, coastwise and by land car-
riage. The imports have been confined to 48 tons from
Dieppe, 50 tons from Dorcum, and 30 tons from Harlingen.
Good and fine samples move off freely, and prices have an
upward tendency; but other kinds are a slow sale, at late
rates.

WOOL MARKET.

Very large supplies of wool arrived in the port of London
last week, via., 3,455 bales from Melbourne, 530 from Port
Beaufort, 1,930 from Geelong, 1,114 from Port Augusta,
2,587 from Adelaide, 183 from the Cape, 223 from Port
Natal, 100 from Shanghai, and 24 from. St. Helena. Eng.
lish wool is in fair request, both for home use and export,
and prices generally are well supported. Foreign and
colonial parcels are a slow inquiry.

THIS DAY'S MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

There was a moderate inquiry for good and fine samples
of wheat in the leading country markets held on Saturday;
but other kinds met a dull sale on former terms. Barley,
for the most part, though in short supply, was heavy, and
drooping in price. Other kinds of spring corn were dull,
but not cheaper. The flour trade was in a sluggish state.
Throughout the Continent wheat has been held with
more firmness. In prices, however, very little change has
taken place. Other kinds of produce have been less active.
Lower rates for both wheat and flour have come to hand
from the United States. _

Up to our market last week the arrivals of home-grown
produce were only moderate. From abroad, we received
4,326 quarters of wheat, 14,318 barley, 14,471 oats, 13 beans,
23 peas, 694 tares, 6,036 linseed, 9,349 rapeseed, 1,965
sundry seeds, 834 sacks, and 12 barrels of flour.
The quantity of wheat received fresh up to-day from
Essex was very moderate, but its general condition was
good. From Kent the receipts were by no means extensive.
Owing to the warlike rumours afloat, factors generally were
very firm in their demands, but the trade was by no means
active. However, there were buyers of good sound wheat,
and, in most instances, prices were is to 2s per quarter
higher than on Monday last.
We were less extensively supplied with foreign wheat
than for some time past. Importers were very firm, and
most of them refused to sell except at is to 2s per quarter
more money. However the business done was rather
limited, at fully late rates.
Floating cargoes of grain commanded very little attention.
Owing to continued large imports from abroad barley was
very dull, and is to 2s per quarter lower than on Monday
se'nnight.

There was very little passing in malt, at the late decline
in value.

There was a good consumptive demand for oats, and
prices had an upward tendency.
The show of beans was limited, nevertheless, most quali-
ties moved off slowly, at late rates.
In peas very little was passing, at last week's currency.
The flour trade was far from active. Millers, however,
were firm, and prices were well supported.

SCOTCH ELECTIONS

AYIISHIRE.—Lord James Stuart offers himself for
re-election as representative of this county. From
all we can learn there is not likely to be any oppo-
sition. It has been currently reported that Sir
James Fergusson, the unsuccessful candidate at the
last election, does not intend to come forward ; and
this is corroborated by negotiations with Mr.
David Mure, advocate (Solicitor-General), to take
Sir James's place in a contest with Lord James.
Mr. Craufurd offers himself again for the represen-
tation of the burghs.—Ayr Advertiser.

ABERDEENSIIIRE.—There is every prospect that
Lord Haddo will be unopposed.
CLACKMANN AN AND KINROSS COUNTIES.—A
meeting of the Liberal committee, presided over by
Captain Christie, of Hillend, was held on Thursday
afternoon, when it was resolved, without a dissent-
ing voice, to request Lord Melgund again to come
forward as a candidate for the representation of
the united counties.

KIRKALDY BURGHS. Col. Ferguson, who has
represented these burghs so long, stands again.
KINCARDINESHIRE.—The Hon. General Arbuth-
nott again offers himself to the electors of Kincar-
dineshire, and it is supposed that he will be unop-
posed.
ROXBURGHriCOUNTY).—Sir Wm. Scott has issued
his address. e offers himself on liberal principles.
Ross AND CROMARTY:—Sir James Matheson has
issued an address soliciting re-election for the com-
bined counties of Ross and Cromarty.
STIRLING BURGHS.—A liberal candidate has at
length come foward for these burghs—Mr. Roger
S. Aytoun. of Inchdairnie. At a meeting of Mr.
Oliphant's committee, held in Dunfermline on Fri-
day night, the following resolution was unanimously.
adopted :—" That this meeting expresses its grati-
fication at the announcement of Mr. Aytoun's
candidature; and it will be glad to have an oppor-
tunity of hearing his political sentiments ; and that
it will give him its support if these are found con-
sonant with the views of Mr. Oliphant's friends."
STEWARTRY OF KIRKCUDBRIGHT.—Mr. Mackie
has issued an address to the electors, announcing his
intention of again standing for the county.
WICK BURGHS.—Mr. Laing is a candidate, and
Lord John Hay is not to stand again.

SEVOND LIFE : or ELECTRICAL NERVOUS
VORCE ; a MEDICAL WORK, intended for the special
perusal_ of all who are suffering from the various forms of
NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY, and the distress-
ing ulterior consequences to which they lead ; with practical
Observations on the, great Curative power of ELECTRO-
GALVANISM in the treatment of these Disorders, by infus-
ing tone and vigour in constitutions relaxed or debilitated
from various enervating causes. Illustrated with Cases com-
piled from the Note-book of a Registered Medical Practi-
tioner of twenty years' standing.
Unlike many vaunted restoratives, Electricity is one which
commends itself to the medical man as being accordant with
the soundest teachings of physiology. By the most obvious
indication it admits of being .shown that the Electrical and
Nervous energies are identical ; hence, that when the latter
fails, the former can take its place, and that when, from irre-
gularities of any kind, the nervous system has become debili-
tated, paralysed, or exhausted, and the patient brought to a
condition little short of total prostration, then by the action
of Electricity, imparting certainty and efficacy to medical
treatment, he can be re-invigorated, and his health re-esta-
blished to a degree almost warranting the designation of
SECOND LIFE.

THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.

PLYMOUTH, APRIL 10.
The Cape Monitor brings intelligence a week
later than that by the Dane, which left on the 21st
of February and arrived here on the 28th of March.
The valuable settlements on the east coast of Africa,
belonging to the Portuguese Government, are about
to be opened up for trade. The Chevalier du Prat
is advertising for mail steamers to run between
Natal and Delagoa Bay, Quillimaine' and Mozam-
bique. Another line will probably follow between
Mozambique and Madagascar. A lucrative trade
has for many years existed between the United
States and Mozambique. By the official returns in
the Gazette it appears that m the last quarter of
1858 there was a considerable increase in the im-
portation of agricultural implements at the Cape.
The men belonging to the 59th Regiment, in-
valided from China, are recovering. Of 148 sick on
arrival, 12 have died, 31 have left the hospital, and
105 remain. The troopship Marseilles, 74 days from
Gravesend, for India, with 14 officers and 409 men
under command of Capt. Millar, 67th ReiMent,
arrived at Table Bay on 25th February. The
transport Didon, 4, Commander G. Picard, •from
Brest, Dec. 29, with 350 soldiers for Singapore and
China, .put into the Cape for water the same day.
The barques Irene, Hero, and Gabalva were load-
ing for London, and the Suzanne, for Marseilles.

as regards the architectural beauty of the structures them-
-B.lves, or the varied and hitherto unattempted combinations

MECHANICS' INSTITUTES.

Are mechanics' institutes frequented mainly by
mechanics ? Certainly, not. If they were, would
they be in the languid and almost eleemosynary
condition in which too many of them now are ?
Most emphatically we say no. Very many, if not
the great bulk, of the institutions thus designated
are in the main mere places of amusement—danc-
ing schools, singing rooms, amateur theatres, and
so forth, carried on for the amusement of mere lads
and girls, who do not, in the majority of cases, be-
long to mechanics at all. We are not now speaking
against such places of amusement. They may be
very useful things in their way. But to disgrace
the name of mechanics by placing it upon such
places is to insult the class. We have no desire to
