Fleeces as a rule were difficult to set!, and matchings were also bad. particularly he best quality, and rates as a rule had therefore a downward tendency. Business in these wools mu^t be considered rather unsatisfactory, except for a few special sorts, which mainrained the r value. Welsh brokes were readily cleared at firm pi-ices, and the demand for Kent fleeces and Irish wethers again continued. BestShrop- shire fleeces commanded good prices, and in some I case-, hold rs required more money than buyers were disposed to give.

THE NAVARRO AT NEWPORT. The Spanish mail steamer Navarro, one of the largest steamers which has ever entered Newport, was towed into the Old Dock on Wednesday. She is too large to be got into the Alexandra Dock, and a level had to be made at the Old Dock for her accommodation. She is 365 foet long, 40ft 7in beam, and carries 6.500 tons of cargo and bunkers. She has come to take coal for Liver- pool, and it is expected she will be ready to leave by Saturday's tide. The Navarro was being moored up as the Slipway Company's new graving dock was being opened, and her immense length attracted general attention. The captain reported to the authorities that one of the crew, who had been sick for a few days, died at sea on Wednesday morning, while the vessel was coming round to Newport from London.

IMPUDENT ROBBERY AT BRYN- MAWR. Early on Thursday morning some persons managed to get into the yard of the Mitre Hotel, Brynmawr, and there abstract from a trap a quantity of drapery, which was placed inside of the vehicle, but covered up. The trap belongs to Mr Blackmore, who travels the district, taking his stock with him. At 11 o'clock at night the trap seemed quite safe, and was covered with tarpaulins, but about seven o'clock on Thursday morning it was discovered to have been opened. A quanity of straw hats have been stolen, bnt the exact loss is at present not ascer- tained, the owner not having returned from home.

CARDIFF TRADE REPORT. SPECIAL REPORT BY OUB OWN CORRltePONDETr. ] CARDIFF, Thursday Night. The exports of coal during the week now ending have been fairly good. As the undermentioned figures will show, our shippers have been very well occupied. There is, however, less demand at the moment, and things are slightly easier-in fact, the pressure recently experienced by big colliery proprietors has decreased to such an extent that a slight fall in the prices now current may be anticipated in the near future, provided things remain as they are at present. The entries outwards of ton- nage for loading show an increase over the record for last week, and although they fall short in their aggre- gate carrying capacity of replacing the clearance, they at the same time represent a moderately satisfactory burthen. The weather, though unsettled, may be regarded as favourable on the whole to the movements of tonnage and general trade of theport. In the freight market there has been very little doine during the week. Mediterranean business is quiet, but tonnage for French ports, Baltic, and East Indies is in good demand. There has been only a moderate supply of tonnage offering for on. ployment, and chartering has cons quently not been brisk during the week. Quotations for French ports are substantially improved, there being a good demand for tonnage in this direction. Spanish coal freights are steady, and homeward rates for iron ore are im- proved both from Bilbao and tbeMediterrallean ports in that trade. Outward rates for Italian ports are weaker, and there is nothing doing for Malta at the moment. The GibTalter rate is firm, whilst that for Port Said is weaker. The higher Mediterranean and Black Sea coal freights are unchanged, but homeward business from the latter quarter is very firm, and fair employment is obtainable in this direction. Out- ward East Indian rates are also very Urm, but home- ward business thence is flat. West Indian rates for coal are also high, with poor employment offering thence. There are no charters repo' ted this week in connection with transatlantic steam chartering for coals. Steamers are still in demand for the States, but homeward business thence is flat. Exports for tbe week :-Coal, 155,770 tons; iron, 5.245 tons patent fuel, 890 tons; coke, 20 tons, imports for the week :— Iron ore, 4,9oO tons pitwood, 1,340 loads.

NEWPORT TRADE REPORT. [SPECIAL REPORT FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.] NEWPORT, Thursday. The exports of coal to foreigu ports for the week just ended in- dicate a slight falling off as compared with last week. This is undoubtedly to be accounted for by the decline in Mediterranean quotations about a fort. night ago having kept back owners from cbarteric.n The outward r.<tes being now firmer, and heme ward business from the Black Sea better, more steamers are offering, and there is a probability of more business being done in the coming week. Although in some cases prices have slightly fallen, the best descriptions of Glamorganshire and Monmouthshire coal have, in most cases, held their own. Even the present week's shipments, amounting to 36,870 tons, are fully an average. The tonnage on the river It) not very great, but the Old Dock presents a much more business- like aspect, both as regards steam and iailing tonnage. Amongst the former is the s.s. Nevarro, of Bi bao, taking in a large quantity of coal for bunker purposes, and said to be the largest boat that lias ever entered Newport. The Alexandra. Dock is also doing a fair amount of work. The freight market is firmer. Eastern freights keep up, whilst the Mediterranean quotations, as mentioned above, are improving. Homeward busi- ness from the Black Sea is drmer, and ore freights are better. Pitwood rates from Bordeaux have naturally risen, partly in consequence of the extra tonnage dues imposed at that port since the last few weeks. This extra tax, in addition to Is per ton for loading, which leaves 4d to 5d per t- n to the shipper, and lOd for discharging. which leaves 5d per ton for the receiver, must somewhat lessen owners' profits. Sailing freights are without change, The iron market-! are firm, and the exports this week show an mprovement over the last week's figures. Other exports include 850 tons fuel for Spain, and some general goods for Central America. Imports of iron ore amounted to 10,505 tons of pitwood 1,750 tons from France are to hand. Prices of both commodities are better, and the demand is more active. Ore m y be quoted at 12s 3d pitwood, 15s 6d to 15s 9d. Other imports include two cargoes of sleepers and a quantity of onions. The new Dry Dock belonging to the Slip- way Company was open this week. Jj; ts sitwrted on the east bank of the river nearly opposite the Alexandra Dock.

SWANSEA TRADE REPORT. [SPECIAL REPORT FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.] SWANSEA, Thursday.—The arrivals of tonnage, ballast laden, during tbe last week have shown much improvement, and in consequence the exports have been much larger than the previous week. The import trade, however, has again neon very dull. The ship- ments of general merchandise include 3C0 tons per City of Lincoln for New Orleans, 130 tons for Hamburg, 1,050 tons for Genoa and Leghorn, and 15 tons for Tucacas. The tin-plate trade continues in a satisfactory state; at the exchange on Tuesday last week's quotations were firmly maintained, and the temporary disorganisation caused by the reported difficulties of a large firm of buyers in the States was reported as having passed away, and the market to have resumed its previously strong tone. For the week ending Saturday the return of stocks in dock warehouses showed an increase of 26,006 boxes, but the vessels loa ing, and to load, during the next fortnight will probably tell a different tale.

WEST MIDLANDS IRON. COAL, AND HARDWARE TRADES BIRMINGHAM, Thursday. — 'Change this afternoon yet further indicated the stronger symptoms which have prevailed the last two or three weeks. Nearly all kinds of finished iron were reported to be in somewhat better demand For sheets, block, and galvanised, makers have more orders now than they have had at any previous time this year. The improved shipping enquiries are the most important feature of the tinisiied iroll trade,and these are received mainly from Australia, South America, the Cape, and India. ftussia and Ger- many are also gf)od customers. Prospects for the autumn season are declared by makers to be unusually good. Nearly all the block sheet works are in full operation, and some makers hava sufficient orders 011 their books to provide employment for some time to come. Quotations are B5 15s to E6; and by the fore- most firms the quotation of £6 7", 6<1 to £0 10s for doubles is this week the standard price. Trebles are quoted at S7 7s to E7 10s. Considerable activity is being experienced at the galvanised works. The shipping demand is particularly good. During August no fewer than 12,908 tons were exported, which was an increase on the year of 3,4b6 tons. This is having the natural effect of strengthening prices, and a rise of 59 per ton which has been secured during the month is likely to be followed soon by a further appreciable advance. The makers of best quality bars are receiving more orders, and from some markets there is a conspicuously better demand. Quotations remain on the basis of B7 strong good qualities of unmarked iron are quoted 25 10s, and common descriptions of reliable quality can seldom be had under £ 0. Hoops and strips are in good demand, at £ 5 5s for the former, with a further 5s per ton for baling hoops cut to lengths. Gas strip is £4 17s 6d Pigs do not participate in a proportionate degree in the improvement which ha-i appeared in finished iron. For imported Midland brands a better demand is being experienced, and makers anticipate early enlarged inquiries. Prices are maintained at 36s to 56s 6d for Northampton*, 37s to 37s 6d for Derbyshires, and 39s 6d to 41s for Lincoln shires. Production at the native furnaces is large where the iron is needed for basic steel purposes, and deliveries are going forward with some freedom, most of the orders being filled out of stock. Prices are stronger, and common descriptions are quoted from 30s 6d to 31s 6d. Part-mines are 40s, and all-mines are 50s to 52s 6d. Excellent progress is beinij made with the development of steel, which is being consumed witn much success in constructive and other engineering work. liasic steel is becoming especially popular, consumers being now relieved of the apprehension by the recent decision of Lloyds, which they entertained for the trustworthi- ness of that metal. The steel has, it is said, suffered for faults not its own, as many Bessemer and other steel plates which have proved defective have been alleged to be the product of the Thomas-Gilchrist pro- cess. Large quantities of this steel are now being turned out of the works of the Staffordshire Steel and Ingot Iron Company, a large proportion of the output being despatched to South America and other export markets for use in bridge erections.

NORTH OF ENGLAND IRON AND COAL TRADES. MIDDLESBROUGH, Thursday.—The quietude of the pig-iron market reported eariy6 in the week is still the general characteristic. Since the present month set in there has been considerable dulness manifested in the trade, and low prices have supervened. Not that any very great reduction has taken place, but stiil it is somewhat a matter of surprise that at the present season of the year, when business is expected to be much brisker than ordinarily.and when prices are more likely to rise than to fall, auy weakness should have been developed. Inquiries for iron, how. ever, from the continent have been below the average, and shipments are not going on quite ao well as in former years up to the present time. There may, how. ever, be some change before the month is out, and many people have the impressioii that such will be the case, and prices will be higher, and more demand will arise. Much, no doubt, will depend upon the state of the Scotch market, which latterly has been comparatively low. The quotations of more chants are about 34s No. 3 for promi t, and 34s 3d forward. Makers are 34s 6d. Warrants are 33s 10jd to 34s. I he steel trade is in a very satisfactory state indeed, everything considered, there being plenty of work in hand and more inquiries coming forward. Steel plates are firm at 26 2s 6d, rails 1:4 2s 6d, and angles £ 5 128 6d. A company has lately been formed to develop steel casting under experienced manage- ment, and this industry is likely to take a prominent position in the district. The manufactured iron trade, which had been rather quieter, is again showing a little more animation, more orders being given out, with a shade firmer prices. Bars are B4 10s usually, though one or two firms will perhaps take a little less ship plates, 94 7s 6d boiler plates, B5 10s angles, £ 4 5s sheets, JE5 15s, less 2j per cent. discount. The engineering and shipbuilding departments are pretty steady. Another industry, although having nothing to do with the iron trade, is that of salt making, there being nearly 3,000 tons of salt per week now evaporated by different firms upon the banks of the Tees. Bolckow, Vanghan, and Co. are starting a new company, with £ 75,000 capital, to work their salt beds at Eston, and it is not improbaole that a sllpft will be sunk for that purpose, instead of pumping, as is usually done. The steam coal trade, which was very busy up to a week or two since, shipments being in excess of those of the corresponding period of lasi. year, has shown a rather weaker feeling, and demand for the moment is quieter. It is expected, however, to come up again before the end of the shipping season. Prices are scarcely so firm tor ordinary coals, best bjing about 8s, and, in some cases, rather less being taken on the Tyne or Wear. Very little north country steam coal is now sent to the Mediterranean. During the strike in the spring most of the trade went to South Wales, "and very little of that for the Mediterranean and Suez has since been got together again. There is more demand for, gas coals, and prices are firm, but for manufacturing sorts trade is quiet. Coke is firm at late rates.

NEWCASTLE TRADE REPORT. NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE, Thursday.—Steam coal is in rather less demand best makes 8s per ton, discount being allowed in some cases. Gas coal is selling freely. Prices run up t) 6s 9d per ton. Manufacturing and junitliy coal is in fair demand households duU coke firm, and unchanged. Iron, both pig and manufac- tured, is a shade lower. Shipbuilding fairly ste dy; chemicals quiet. Soda still scarce, at 45s 6d bleaching p«wdar, £ f 10s.

ONE OF OUR FINE OLD LEGAL ANOMALIES. A curious point in English law has just come before the county magiatrates at Liverpool. One Joseph Shiel was mulcted in 5s and costs for allowing a dog to be at large. He protested allowing a dog to be at large. He protested against the fine, and averred that his wife could prove to the satisfaction of the court that the dog was not at large, but was quietly squatting at the defendant's own doorstep. Mr Eaton declined to hear the evidence, and told the defendant that under English law, a wife could not be called as a witness." The defendant again and again protested, and eventually withdrew in high dudgeon. Everybody knows that a wife cannot tender evidence for or against her husband (and vice versd) in criminal cases, but it is surely soinetbing of an absurdity in civil matters. How. ever, it's one of our fine old legal peculiarities, and we've got to put up with it.

THE DOCKYARD DISCHARGES AT AN END. Sir John Gorst writes, on the authority of Mr Forwood, that the wholesale discharges of labourers at Chatham Dockyard are at an end, and that further reductions will only be allowed to effect themselves through age or retirement.

SPECIAL CIRCULAR. rjIHE DENARO GOLD MINING COMPANY, LIMITED IN 60,000 SHARES OF £1 EACH. NO LIABILITY. CHAIRMAN- JAMES HASTINGS, ESQ., 80, LOMBARD STRKKT, LONDON, Director of the celebrated "Empire" Gold Mine. FACTS, NOT OPINIONS. Assay of Ore just received in London from the mine by Johnson, Matthey, and Co.. assavers to the Bank of England:— Gold .1,886 ozs., Value L7,544 Silver 498 ozs, 99 £ 7,643 Per ton of ore So extraordinary are the advices just to band from this valuable property, and so lully confirmatory of the favourable reports from time to time received, that, at the urgent request of clients, we adopt the unusual and somewhat inconvenient course of issuing a special circular, in order that country clients may have the oppor- tunity of participating in the immediate and important rise in the shares which now seems assured. As to the undoubted value, the published facts are so eloquent of this great mine that, with the fewest remarks possible concerning the London Executive, we intend confining ourselves almost exclusively to the same. The company is well established and most economically managed, and, fortunately, has for its chairman a director of the well-known and profitable Empire Gold Mine, the shares of which stand at a considerable premium. In support of our views we now direct attention to the published facts. The Capitalist and British Advertiser as far back as March last directed attention to this company as follows As regards the Denaro Gold Mining Company, its benefits are still prospective, but well within measurable distnnce.' The statement made from the chair by Mr Hastings, late chairman of the prosperous Empire Mine, and by shareholders to whom the property of the company is well known, Jnlly confirmed the independent testi- monies as to the great value of the mines, which are likely to prove exceedingly rich in gold. As was set forth in the prospectus, the Denaro pro- perty is surrounded by a group of the most pro- ductive mines in Colorado, and in one of the most auriferous districts in the world. There is every reason to believe that the Denaro Mine will turn out splendidly. The workings are upon a true fissure vein, and the ore can be raised without the use of expensive machinery. This is an important consideration, as the cost of working is thus reduced to a minimum, and the share- holders may reasonably look forward to prompt returns. This enterprise is not overweighted by an excessive capitalisation. There are no preliminary expenses to be written off, and tfie office charges to date have been an insignificant item of 9150. Better yet. The directors announced that they would not claim their fees for the first year except out of profits, which may be taken to mean that they are pretty sure of the profits The company is now in full legal possession of the mine the services of a first-class and experienced engineer have been secured, and everything is in perfect order for the immediate and productive prosecu- tion of operations for the raising of ore. In a few weeks a remittance may be expected, and alto- gether the holders of Denaro Shares are to be felicitated on their brilliant prospects. If they are not worth B2 a share a year from now, I shall be content to take a back seat as a prophet.— The Capitalist, March 12, 1887. And again in the following month of April :— "The Denaro Gold Mine is looking uncom- monly rich. The advices to hand are most satisfactory, and a *cable' bm just advised, not only that the works are upon a true fissure vein, but that metallic gold has been discovered. Mr Philip Milford, who is a well known and sound mining authority, speaks of the future of this property with the greatest confidence. It is, ia fact, surrounded by some of the most valuable mines in the United States. It is ia the right place. Mr Milford's report to the directors, which no doubt yon will publish, is well Worth attention by all who take an interest in BuctosAfui mining enterprise. In view of Mr Milford's con- clusive opinions, it need hardly be observed that where they can, the proprietors in this company are holding tight to the shares. I look to the development of the property with the greatest possible confidence. "-PM Capitalist, April 23rd, 1887. In July last that most enterprising and success- ful of financial dailies, devoted almost exclusively to Stock Exchange matters, The Financial News, published the following The following circular has been sent out to the shateholders of the Denaro Gold Mining Company, Limited The directors have plea- sure in submitting extracts from the reports lately received from their resident engineer,! ivilr Bradford H. Lock, in Central City, Colorado, as follows:- June 24th, 1887.-1 have the pleasure to report the striking of very good-looking ore, at a depth of 90 feet. The crevice tirat improved in the west end of the shaft, but now extends fully across the abaft, and is at least 2ft. in width. It is what we call here 'stamp mill ore,' and although I do not expect this ore to be very rich, I consider it as almost sure to lead to profitable ore. We have sunk at least 4ft. through this ore, and I consider the indications very good indeed for its enlargement into a paying ore body." "June 29, 1887.—I obtained to-day a certificate of assay of a sample of ore taken out near the present bottom of the shaft, to wit, 100ft. This was neither solid smelting ore nor stamp mill ore, but a mixture of both. I consider it a very encourag- ing test. as it shows a value of $28'52 per ton, or about:65 15s. To-night the foreman brought down a sample of solid smelting ore, about two inches wide, which occurs on the hanging wall. He said that the streak extended the full length of the shaft, and was accompanied by about 30in. of fair-looking milling ore. I shall continue to sink for another 50ft. into the ore body, as that will afford us enough of a back stope. I think that after we open up this ore body we shall have a profitable stope, for it is quite wide enough to be easily mined, and it looks to be of good grade. The rock being much softer than at any time since we commenced to sink, the miners will be able to make much better headway, and probably they will have attained a depth in ore, by August 1st, which will warrant us in starting our drifts. The improvement seems to be due to a change in the dip, and to a junction with some other vein, which latter we have been expecting for some time." "July 6th, 1887.— The two crevices in the shaft seem to be drawing together, and we expect to find them united in a few feet more sinking. The directors regard the above reports as very encouraging, and as the main shatt was 108ft. deep at the date of the last report, and is being pushed forward at the rate of li foot a day (36 feet having been sunk in June), they consider that by the end of this month the specified depth—150 feet-will be reached, and the stoping proceeded with at once. -2,Ac Finan ci(tl New, Saturday, July 30, 1887. And again on the 9;h of August last :— The secretary of the Denaro Gold Mining Company, Limited, announces the receipt of news from the mine, dated July 26, which reports the sinking of the main shaft to a depth of 127ft., and that the ore realises a value of $60.30, or nearly B12 10s per ton. Mr Bradford H. Locke, the resident engineer, states his intention of running drifts east and west on August 1. Samples of ore from this mine indicate considerable richness of ore. 11-Tke Financial News, Tuesday, August 9, 1887. During the past week, confirming in a singniar manuer all the previous favourable anticipations, samples of very rich ore from the mines were received at the London Office, and forwarded by the directors for assay to the Bank of England Assayers (Messrs Johnson, Matthey, and Co.), who certify the astounding results stated at the commencement of this Circular, viz. Qold 1,886 ozs. Silver 498 ozs. Per ton of ore. With a true fissure vein yielding free milling ore exceeding 2 oz. per ton, coupled with the fact that the mine is being vigorously opened up, together with the no less important fact that the London Executive is vigilant, intelligent, and economic, it is simply stating a trui-m that the shares are bound to have a great and almost immediate rise. Clients who wish to make money will therefore lose no time in getting in at present quotation, 14s to 15, subject to market change. JAMES V.

CRICKET. GENTLEMEN OF SUSSEX v. PLAYERS OF SUSSEX. The Hastings festival came to a conclusion yesterday, the match between the gentlemen and players of Sussex ending in a draw. Had time permitted there would, no doubt, have been an interesting finish, as the players, with four wickets to fall, wanted 27 runs to win. The chief features of esterday's cricket were the batting of Mr McCormick, Mr Greason, Mr Pigg, and the brothers Hide, and some capital bowling by Bean, Arthur Hide, and Mr Pigg. The festival throughout has been a complete success, and there will, we believe, be no need to call upon the guarantee fund. which amounted to nearly £320. Score:- GENTLEMEN. 1st Innings 2nd Innings.
