lstfy, sdmu unsquiyooaly that SIR Henry Bulwsf
gave no provocation Whatever so the Spanish 60
venment; that there is no pressntable charge or
complaint against him and that the pretenoe
that the Narvaez cabinet only wished the ambassa-
dor to quit Madrid to save him from assassination,
is false and worthless.
The resolution with respect to the ministerial pro-
position for the modification of the navigation laws
was met on Monday evening by counter resou-
tlon, proposed by MIR. Herries upon which the sup
porters and opponents of Mr. Labouchere's measure
in the House of Commons had joined issue. The
counter resolution of Mr. Herries sets forth that it
is essential to the national interests of this country
to maintain the fundamental principles of the ex-
listing navigation laws, subject to such modi6ca-
tons may be best calculated to obviate any
proved inconvenience to the commerce of the
United Kingdom and its dependencies, without
danger to our national strength
Commercial and Financial Intelligence.
The improved tone exhibited in the general cha
racter of trade up to the close of last week, has
been fairly maintained for the last few days, not
withstanding the constant augmentations Of CONT
mental intelligence, by no means conducive to an
expression of the prevailing feeling. Unmitigated
arrangements on the continent have greatly aggra-
waited the feeling of Alarm caused by dsorderly ma
nifestations at home, and reaction, though tri-
fling, has of consequence been produced. On Mon
day, and the two following days, lnsubordinate
spirit was displayed IN London, some parts of
Yorkshire, and the neighborhood of Manchester,
by armed assemblagcs of chartists and repealers,
who, with the avowed object of making sympa-
thetic demonstration in favor of Mr.. Mitchell,
whose fate Is noticed In another place, and exhibit
ting public defiance of the government, have eff
fected a considerable deal of mischief. The
immediate results of these demonstrations have
been an almost suspension of business in the seve-
raj localities. The wanton destruction of some
factory property, the compulsory closing of three
or four large establishments, and collisions with
the civil power, in which the police and special
constables were beaten-the authorities, however
having resorted to strong repressive measures-the
disposition to riot has, with the aid of the military
been greatly checked and now it is to be feared
that perfect tranquility is far from being restored
No life was lost but several were wounded on both
sides
The accounts from the manufacturing districts,
though somewhat conflicting, In many respects
are not In the main gloomy Operations for the
past week have been limited, being almost wholly
confined to the execution of some United States
and home orders, and few for the German mar
ket.
We are in receipt by the overland mail of some
demands for the India market, but not to any ami.
mating extent. The manufacturing condition of
the country is critical and will continue 80 until
the re-estab hshment of continental harmony.
The interchange of traffic with the United
States Is at present the paadi Of Great Britain.
The monetary condition of the country still con-
t!nues buoyant. Money is plentiful, accommoda-
ton liberal, and discounts are moderate. The ma
tional securities are firm, though, for the last day
or two, inactive. They have, OF course, been ma
terially affected by the varying announcements re-
ceived from abroad, the vicisstudes of trade at
home, and the speculative opinion entertained re-
garding governmental probabilities generally,
