ENGLAND.
Great excitement prevailed with respect to the
issue Of the race for the Goodwood Cup. Some o
the English papers claim already that the American
horses are desce1ded from English stock, and
neuce by inference, their chance for triumph. The
american horse Pryor was backed spirtedly at Tat
tersaifs on the Monday previous to tho race, il

The manufacturer. of Paris are doing little and
me Shopkeepers less. The same observations apply
10 the departments. Manufacturing operations are
moreover impedcd by the continued high price of
cotton, wool and silk. Cotton has risen 36 per ct
