two Hundred Metioal Gentlemen to be the most effective
invention in the curative treatment of HERNIA. The use

the requisite resisting power is supplied by the Moe-Slain

ness that it cannot be detected, and may be worn during
sleep. A descriptive circular may be had, and the truss,

STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, Aug. 3.—For shipping yarns the
market has been very quiet to-day, and it does not
appear likely we shall have much doing till money
becomes easier. There are very large orders in the
market, which are held back by buyers, under an
impression that they will be able to do better by
waiting. Home-trade yarns are in very little de-
mand, and the prices are decidedly easier than at
the beginning of the week. In Sloth the market has
also been exceedingly quiet. Scarcely any busi-
ness whatever has been done. Offers have been made
at prices too low for acceptance, though sellers
would be willing to make some concession. Some
business was expected yesterday had the Bank re-
duced the rate of discount. The separation of the
directors without doing so had a disappointing
effect, and to this cause is the continued flatness
of the market to-day mainly attributed. The
drooping tendency of the Liverpool cotton market
to-day has had a bad effect on the market here.
CARDIFF, 2d.—There is no diminution in the fo-
reign demand for steam coal, and shipping opera-
tions are carried on with the usual activity. The
local consumption of house coal has lessened, but
the inquiry coastwise has improved, merchants hav-
ing commenced stocking. The iron trade remains
in a state of quietude, and the orders which have
been received from the foreign markets are few;
among them, however, is a large contract from the
Madras Railway Company. There has also been
received a couple of rather heavy orders for rails on
home account--one from the South-Eastern Railway
Company and the other from the Great Northern
Railway Company. The shelving of the American
new tariff bill is looked upon with satisfaction, and
contracts may now be expected to come in more
freely from the markets of the States. The masters
have withdrawn the notice for a reduction of wages
which was to have come into operation on the Ist
inst. The principal cause of this decision was the
prospect of a permanent peace being established on
the Continent.

MATRIMONIAL REFORM IN EGYPT.---A letter in
the Journal du ilavre has the following :—" Ismael Pasha,
Viceroy of Egypt, is about to publish a decree which will
abolish polygamy in his family. Henceforth the viceroys
will only be able to have one wife. They will only be
able to divorce her in the case that the wife shall not give
them a male child. If, at the moment of the divorce, the
wife should be enciente, and she should have a son, the
divorce will be void. All the high Egyptian functionaries
praise the wisdom of this decree, which has been commu-
nicated to them, and they have all declared their intention
of imitating the Viceroy." The probeeding may be binding
on the Viceroy himself, but it cannot well survive him
per force, as the Koran sanctions a plurality of wives.

ARRIVAL OF THE PERSIA.

QUEENSTOIVN, Friday.
The royal mail steamship Persia, from New York
on the 25th ult., arrived here at 5.45 p.m. to-day
with 108 cabin passengers and 025,804 in specie.
She landed 112 sacks of mails and 13 passengers.
and proceeded for Liverpool at 6 p.m. All well.
NEW YORK, July 25, Morning.
Both Houses of Congress have passed a resolu-
tion readmitting Tennessee into the Union. An
amended preamble was added to the resolution by
the Senate, stating that Tennessee, having been
declared in insurrection, could only be restored to
the Union by consent of the law-making power of
the United States ; Tennessee having adopted the
constitution abolishing slavery, renouncing seces-
sion and the rebel debt, and having organised the
State Government under the said Constitution,
which had rectified the constitutional amendment
abolishing slavery, and also the amendment pro-
posed by the 39th Congress is therefore readmitted
to the Union.

President Johnston signed the bill readmitting
Tennessee, but sent a message to Congress stating
that his signature was not to be considered as ad-
mitting the right of Congress to pass laws pre-
liminary to the admission of States, nor as com-
mitting himself to the statements made in the pre-
amble.

The Radical members received portions of the
message with derisive laughter.
The house resolved that when Congress adjourned
it should reassemble on Oct. 2, and then readjourn
until December.

The house adopted a resolution requesting the
President to urge the Canadian authorities to re-
lease the Fenians captured in Canada, and also to
abandon the Federal prosecutions against the Fe-
nians if compatible with the public interest.
London, England, 1866-08-04

GREAT SWIMMING MATCH.

This morning the race for the Amateur Silver Challenge
Cup presented by Mr. John Latey, the hon. secretary of
the London Swimming Club, took place in the Serpentine.
The start was from the grating end to Kensington-bridge,
1,000 yards, half-past six being the time specified, and the
result was a much smaller entry than had been expected
and the prize merited. It was given to be swam for by
members of the London Swimming Club only, and to be
won three times in succession to become the property of
the holder. There were four entries, viz., Messrs. W.
Adams, W. Cole, C. Powell, and F. Smith, but only the
first two names appeared at the startiag place. Mr. W.
Adams is a very beautiful side swimmer, and won the mile
race on Tuesday at Teddington in the competition of the
National Olympian Association, when he beat, amongst
others, that splendid swimmer, Mr. H. Moore, who won
Sir William Fraser's Champion Gold Medal (two miles) in
the Thames last year. In the race this morning the
two competitors started very evenly, and kept together
for rather more than 100 yards, when Adams began to
take the lead, which he gradually increased twice very
easily, doing the distance in about 18i minutes; but the
time is not a fair criterion of his powers, as Cole gave up
some distance from the bridge. As Mr. Adams won the
cup at the last competition, he will become the possessor
should ho contend for it neat time, which at present seems
moro than probable, as those only who can with any
chance of success compete with him have been disqualified
for amateur races. Mr. John Latey, the donor of the cup,
was starter and judge. The early hour of the race, and
the doubtful weather rendered the attendance less nume-
rous than usual. On Monday the second and third class
silver medals, given by and for members of the London
Swimming Club, will be competed for in the Serpentine,
and as there are numerous entries for this very open race
some good sport may bo anticipated.

PLYMOUTH, Thursday Evening.—Her Majesty's
ship Achilles, 2G, Capt. Edward W. Vansittart, left the
Sound this afternoon for Portland. The Lord Clyde, 24,
Capt. Dow, C. 8., from Madeira, passed up Channel off the
Eddystone at noon to-day. The American ship of war
Colorado. 33, Capt. Wynam, flag of Admiral Goldsborough
from Lisbon, arrived in the Sound this afternoon, and is
appointed to leave again this evening or to-morrow morn-
ing for Cherbourg. This sudden departure is ascribed to
the naturo of the information she has derived from the
authorities here.

HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN,
14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.O.
Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the
destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the
nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches.
At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor
from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c.,
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of youni, women, chilaren, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refusedadmittance, andhave
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor ramifies
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf.
SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly requested, and will be
gratefully received by the Rev. D. GILBERT D.D., No 22
