In the Inan market, notwithstanding the labor troubles, business in this department has been quite brisk the past week. The number of transactions is small, but the-amount involved is greater than for any previous week of tae mouth. Money continues in large supply, but the demand is small, renewals continuing to be the main teature of the situation. The rate of interest continues steady for the present at the same figures that have ruled for so maay months. There ure faint indications of a rise, and no doubt something of this kind will occur, when the loan market is roused from its pre- vailing dullness. Payments are very satisiac- tory, far better than they were. at the corre- sponding period last year. The following are the principal transactions of the week: ‘Walton place, 50 feet, south front, between North Dearborn and North State streets, $10,- 000—three years at 10 per cent. South Water street, 24 {eet, north front, be- tween Wabash and Michigan avenues, $12,000— five years at 7 per cent.

COMPARATIVE STATEMENT FROM JULY 1 TO JULY 28, passed by Parliament in 1679, in the reign of Charles TI. The" passage of this act. was equivalent toa revolution, and had a much greater effect on the happiness of meu than any batrle of modern times. Aud yet it accom- plished nothing more than to compel Judges to grunt tie writ, in a isrge number of cases, whcther they would or not. But the subject of habeas corpus is regulated. in all of our States by special statutes, and in Illinois the whole precess has been emascu- Jated by the following provision: Any Judge, empowered to iseue writs of habeas corpus, who shall corrupily refuse to issue any snch writ, when legally applied for in a case where it may lawfully issue, or who shall, for the purpoce of oppression, unreasonably delay the lasting of such writ, shall, for every sitch offense. forfeit to the prisoner or party aggrieved a sum not exceeding $1,0U0. (Rev. Stat., Chap. U5, Sec. 5.) It is casy to see that the sufferer, in many cases a poor mun, will never be able to prove aga'nst the dignified and influential Judge the charge of corruption or oppression, even it it were truce. The Judge. therefore, can do_ as he likes avout granting the writ, without fear of un- pleasant results. And if any one replies to this taat Judes are always too honorable to refuse this wnt whenever if cau be lawfully granted, then all [have to say is that I applied to our Criminal Conri for a writ of habeas corpus, and was relused on the ground that my client * had beter wait untii the Grand Jury should examine his case.” Nofault was found with the petition, but the Court, on grounds of secret expediency: coolly deuied the writ. The petition was then altered and - presented to the Judge of another Court, who. said that he “never attended to habeas corpus matters in criminal matters.” ‘I'he petition was altered again aud presented to a Judge of still another court of the county, who reluctantly and as a personal favor granted the writ. The client was not. able to meet the expenses, and the writ was not issued. He remained in jail for two weeks longer, was then bailed out, and the curee against him was ignored by the Grand fury. But the case is made still worse by a practice which has grown up in. the Cook County courts of compelling every ian who ‘seeks a writ of habeas corpus to produce on the examination, at his own cost, all the witnesses against him as well as all the witnesses for him, is in direct contempt of the Constitution, which says that no man shall be compelled to accuse himself. Bat it is also contradictory to the plainest dic- tates oi reason, justice, and common sense. . In mauy cases it is utterly impossible for the pris- omer to say who the witnesses are who are against him. Granting that he knows who they are, itis often impossible for him to procure them. Granting that he can procure them, it is tyranny to make him do so. The whole usage is simply infernal. We have all been very anxious for a week past, about 2 mob who were threatening the city with pillage aud destruction. I. make bold to say that the mob is not balf so much to be dreaded as our laws and court-practice concerning habeas corpus; and that it would be better to burn the city down than tu be without toe undisputed right to demand this wrif.

M’CARTHY ON HABEAS CORPUS, To the Editor of The Tribune, Cucaco, Jnly 23.—The most grievous com- plaint that the citizens of Cook County can lay at the door of their Criminal Court relates to the writ and the procedure called in the law habeas corpus. And it is none the less a gricy- ance if as yet it is theoretical only, which I do not for a moment concede. Havess corpus, cousidered as a prozedure, consists in procuring from any Judge of the Cireutt or Superior Court an order on the Clerk of his Court for ao writ, -call- ed by the same name, compelling the Production *before the Judge forthwith ofa person who hss been restrained of his liberty, and an investigation of the circum. stances of the detention, which may lead to the prisoner's recommitment or enlargement accord- ing to circumstances. And all the other inter- ests of the people of Cook County combined are nothing in value compared with their interest in the proper award of writs of habeas corpus by their Judges. The rizht to have this writ has cost the Anglo-Saxon race a struggle which ex- tended through whole centuries of their history, andan outlay of labor, anxiety, blood, and treasure which cannot be computed. But, as is usual with great principles, the people who had the heroism to achieve the establishment of this right do not in this country possess the vigilance to permit its subsequent decay. And here in Cook County we find ourselves, by a long process of loose legislation and loose court practice, lef? practically without the writ of habeas 7, | ‘Phe value of habeas corpus turns entirely on a MINNIE CUMMINGS TO M’CARTHY. ‘To the Editor of The Tribune. Cuicaco, July 25.—Ur. Florence WeCarthy— Dear Sin: Your noble work in exposing the conditions of the untried prisoners in the Cook County Jail, who, even in accordance with law, should be held as innocent until proven guilty, ought to awaken a response in every honest breast, and bring bodies of people worthy the name of Christians and humanity to your aid in making arefurm. Moreover, since it cannot be denied that daily there are numbers of peo- pleat large guilty of graver. offeuses against the law than the majority of those closely coptined within the gloomy environs of prison-ceils, who, through triends and influence (often bought with ill-gotten ns), escape punishment, or even the humilia- on and disgrace of an arrest; or, should such fayorites be arrested aud confined, as is seldom the case, they are deprived of very few luxuries of life, asis provenin the case the whisky gavg and others who were permitted during their short incarceration to have their meals served from the best hotels,—wines, billiards, card-playing, and driving out for their daily amusenient. ‘ A great many. cold-hearted patriots who always defend the fortunate, no matter of what they arc guilty, argue that they should do nothiag to get in such horrid places. What do they say of a case like that of a Mr. Green, who came to this city some two years ago to visit. an. orphan sister whom he liad not sce for many years? Upon his arrival he was taken with a dizzy spell to which lie was subject. He staggered in the street and fell. A heartless, brutal policeman (as the ma- jority are), glad ‘to think him drunk, arrested him. He died in his cell through harsh treat- ment, aud want of proper care, a few days fol- lowing; and thus, his sister, Miss Green, an artist in our city, first saw her brother after their long separation. The other day a soldier from the Soldiers’ Home, for want of money, walked to this city frum Milwaukee. Te was arrested as a tramp, and put in the County Jail. During some of his jail duties ne was caught between the elevator, and almost maugled ‘to death. He still lies there suffering the tortures of the most con- demned. Again, there are many people incar- cerated as witnessess who did nothing more than the best of us are liable to do—by chance sce others violate the law. Of the number who are confined there for such trivial offenses as should bring blushes, aud the just condemnation of every honest person against their prose- cutors, or I may say persecutors, who are daily cuilty of violations. azainst God and man iar worse than their victims, but eseape | punishment, because, alas! the Jaws are ar- ranged in the interest of the prosp crous,— whether they get it by craft, cunning, crime, chance, or otherwise it matters uot. Money and influence are the secrets of cx- emption from punishment for almost every crime, and those roor creatures, immured “in close, stenching, vermin-eaten cells in a large majority of cases, are there, because, through no fault of theirs, they are deprived of a tor- tunate chance of fate. Something like justice might be reached’ for those unfortunate erca- tures if large numbers of benevolent people were to interest themsecives in 1! behalf, and see that at least they are not deprived of cleanli- ness, goud air, proper exercise, ivod for the body, and healthy food for the mind, such as reading matter, etc. If it was the aim of our law-makers and prison-keepers to make prisons schools of re- form, where a higher condition of morals are stimulated every day by kealthy and normal surroundings, rather than by torture and cruel tics towards the unfortunate class who, through poor parentage, poor education, latent diseases which render them untit for work, poverty, and friendlessness, are compelled to inhabit prison cells and dungeons as sure as justice, truth, and religion is in the back-ground of to-day’s life-experience, and law but a commodity, like erything else in this peculiar world, which has Priveand can be bought, crime would be on the wane, and peace to communities the result. “*Man’s inhumanity to man makes countless thousands mourn.” Truly yours, Mus. M. L. Commines. rr GRANT AND WALES, To the Editor of The Tribune. Cricaco, July 23.—It was with surprise and delight that I read the noble letter of the pro- found H. M.D. in Iast Sunday's Trinunz. 1 am glad that we have one at least with astute- ness enough to see through thedeen and wicked designs of that inkuman monster, Johnny Bull, and boldness enough to expose them. ‘There is little danger to American liberty so long as we have amovg us men of the mental and moral calibre of H. M. D.,—a man, too, with the best “English blood on this Continent in his veins, the blood’ of English statesmen, rulers, and patriots.” Perhaps he is a descendant of the “village Hampden,—that with dauntless breast,”—a man, too, that is willing to use the “English ability We possess to overthrow English schemes.” Mr. Editor. who is. this Sphinx, this learned historian, this acute statesman, this noble patriot of noble blood? Can you not induce him to come out from his concealment and let us know him in all his-effuigent clory? Surely such a genius should not be allowed to rust behind the Ineig- niticant H. M. B., but should be brought froin his retirement like Cincinnatus, and the highest offices of State conferred upon him, His mod- esty is too much, too much, indeed! Say that he be sent on an Embassy to Sittin; Bull, who, it is well known, is first-cousin an. agent of Johnur Bull. There his statesmanlike ability could be used in thwarting the dark de signs of that desperate and ‘bloody pair. But perhaps the astute H. M. B. might be “scalj and tommyhocked by them nasty Indyans.”? Well, we would bear up, kaowing that the “blood of the martyrs is tnesced of the ‘church,”” and that We are sure of perennial crops of wise- acres like H. M. B. as long’ as tyrants exist for them to throttle and overthrow. Gxoxcx Rozson. ‘What Can Be Seen and Bought There * Daring the Next Two Months. New York Erening vost. ‘This year's great annual fair of Nishni-Novgorod —the only market of its kind in the world—will be officially opened for business by divine service and the hoisting of flags on the 17th of July, and close on the 16th of September. From an intercsting description by a German writer, Dr. R. Linder- mann, who attended the great’ fair last year, we teanélate some particalars which are of general interest: As early as the middle of the fourteenth century, under the reign of the Khans of the Kaean Tar- tars, great annual fairs were held in miasnmmer to the north of the many-pinnacled, picturesquely- sitnated Tartar capital, —fairs to which merchants from north and south, from east and west, came to barter the products of the Orient and Occident, of Central Asia and Western Europe. But the Russian Grand Dukes determined to extend the supremacy of the Sclave over trade and com- merce, and Wasili LV., Ivanowitch, established an annval fair on his own territory, on the right bank of the Volga, near its confluence with the Szora, at the same time forbidding all his subjects to at- tend the feir at Kasan. In later years, after the Greck Cross had displaced the Crescent in Kasan, the two faira were consolidated and held near the Dburial-place of . Russia's patron saint, Makarieff, some distance below Nishui-Novgorod, on the bank of the Volea, In 1816 a fire destroyed the booths of the fair, and the Government determined to remove the great market to its present position, near Niehni- Novgorod, a point which is nearly the mathemat- ical centre of European Russia, and lies between the two most important cities of Central Ruysia, Moscow and Kasan, It lies, too, in the centre of the great water-sytem of Russia, lakes and rivers being navigable from here for more than 2,000 miles. ‘As soon as the melting snow in spring swells the streams that flow from the Urai into the plaine the movement of goods toward the great fair beins, mainly in clumsy, ungainly vessels that, slowly make their way to the Volga, where they are taken in tow by tug-boats that await their com- jug. Between. 700 and S00 steamboats are employed on the Volga afone in towing the barges that arrive from the tributary streams with gools forthe fair. On the Caspian Sea, too, great numbers of stcam vesrels are en- fared in transporting the products of Transcaucasia gad of Persia. THE MARKET TOW: ‘The fair is not held within the limits of Nishni- Novgorod, but on the opposite shore of the Volga, on = fiat point of land at the confluence of Aka and the Volya. “The market town comprises. an ‘‘interior™ and an ‘*ex- terior." The interior town consists of sixteen streets crossing .each other at right angles, and compactly built up with warehonses and shops one and two stories in height, The buildings are not attractive in appearance, but all have a covered brick footway in front of them—o necessary con- venience, as in wet weather the streets become al- most impassable. Unattractive us the jwarehouses are cn the ouwide, however, their contents are in the main very valuable. It has been estimated that the gooilé brought to the Just vear's fair were worth not less than 165,000,000 rubles, more than four-fifths of them being Russian products, the Western Evropean and colonial wares formiyg but ‘a small proportion of the entire amount. The stone warehouses of the inner market town ate the property of the crown, which has spared no expense in__ providing conveniences for the great throngs who 6 eellers or buyers, and who number attimes 150,000 persons. ‘The place is thoroughly sewered and is well provided with water. The whole number of buildings devoted to the business of the fairis 5,000; many of these are wooden strnctares which need to be rebuilt every enmmer, a3 the spring floods inundate the place and sweep away all movable property. TUE OUTER FAIR. ‘The mort interesting display is foundat the onter fair. ‘The immense masees of goods piled along the hank of the Volga and filling the huge ware- horses soon convince us that the dealer has brought wll his stock with him, and not merely samples.—that the buyer can inspect his pur- chases and sec that they are delivered to him as he has bought them. At the Sibe- risn Landing is the tea-market. Tea, the daily drink of nearly all Russians, is with them one of the most important articles of commerce. Indeed the tea imported into Ruusia is very often of greater valne than the grain exported from Ruasia. attend the fair cith PERSIAN PRODUCTS. In the Persian division of the market are bales and voxes of raisins, almonds, pistaccia nuts, walnuts, dates, cnrrants, and ' shadballa or dried peache: ‘ith’ many gesticulations, the Persian dealer. clad in caftan, pointed cav, and bright-colored slippers, offers these edibles, to- gel th hand-worked carpets, cloths, and em- But the Persians buy perchares comprising at retail. more than'they sell, their pt bright-colored cotton goods, linens, woolen cloths, copper, drugs, gold brocade. and fringes. TEA IN RUSSIA. ‘Transportation depots, insurance offices, agen- cies of all corte, Notarics' offices, Russian and German restaurants, a Persian inn, and resorts of other nationalities, are to be found in the market town, A long row of wooden buildings contain mats made of linen bark. These mats are used in packing the wares for — trans- portation. “Near one of these bnildings ig the warehoue of an Irkutsk tea merchant. Here the wayfarer can obtain a cup of the best Kiachta tehai, with a piece of lemon-peel in it, ‘*Tehai"’ ig the Knesian forthe Chinese **tcha’ and En- glish ‘*tea,"? Thousands of chests of tea covered with mats and guarded by Tartars fill the space around the building. and purchases are made by n fromthe chests, Black tea is the ia, Previous to the year 1856 all the tea for sale in Nivhni was brought overland from China. Since then, however, owing to 2 reduction of the cue- toms dutics on sesward importations, a change inthe mode of importation has taken place, and at present the Kantonski. tea, as the tea brought in ehips is culled, has driven the Kiachta tea nearly out of general nee, in consequence of it lower price. Nevertheless the Chankowili or over- land tea is still one of the staple articles at the greatfair. A single firm in Russia has the control of the entire overland Kiachta tea trade, which amounts to about 45,000 cheets a year. Shanghat is the point of departure in China, whence is trans- ported to Ticn-Tsin and thence to Kalgan, a commercial town of some prominence, situated near the Chinese wall and the Mongolian frontier. One camel can carry four chests of tea through the desest, At Maimatchin the Mongols deliver the tea into-otner hands for its further transportation, and the chesta are then, for better preservation, wrapped in moiat skins. Jt is asserted that the .overiand tea Joves none of its flavor in traneporta- tion. white the tea that undergoes.an ocean voyage hes its destination in a deteriorated siate; ce better tea ig drunk in Russia than in any other country outzide of China, Tite-tea, or tea pressed into cake, is also brought overland. lt is an important article of trade in Mongolia, in Siberia, and smong the inhabitants of the steppes in Asiatic and European Russia; in Central Asia these tea-cukes often take the place of money in the purchase of other commoditics. Some of the nomadic tribes buy the cheapest kind of tile-tea and boil it with mutton-fat and mil ‘The value of all the tea exposed for gale ut the fair Jast year was estimated at 8,500,000 rubles. THE ISLAND MART. In one of the rivers near the main fair grounds is asondy island, which is connected with the mar- ket town by several bridges and tramways. ‘This island is, during the fair, the home of two imnor- tant articles of commerce, namtely, iron and dried and salted fish. Lon rows of sheds are filled with the various products of the mines and furnaces of Ri har-iron, iron wire, copper bars, horseshocs, cooking utensiix, portable cooking apparatus for the nomads, monumenie, and other isles of cast iron, cutlery, and the like. Twen- ty-twoertablichments represented at the Jast year’s fair hadiron und iron ware on sale weighing 4, - 250,000 pads, and valued at. 10, 000, 000 rubles, The establishments belonging to’ the Crown were nted, bnttoa much smaller amount. isiron ware is brought by water from grest distances ‘The fish market is mainly afloat. Barges with- ont uumber are moored to the docks, filled on deck and inthe hold with dried and salted fish—the former in bales covered with bark, the latter in barreis and kegs. These fish are the princi- pal article of food during the fair, 98 weli_as an important item in the ‘com- meree of the place. ‘They ‘come from the Volga and its tributaries and other streems, and from the far-off Caspian Sea. ‘The fish at last Year's fair were valued at four anda half million Fbies, ‘The fish-barges coming from Astrachan arc towed to Nishni by steamboats, often a dozen in one tow, and these owned by one dealer. Fresh fixh, caught in the neighborhood of the fair, are als on sale every morning. Indeed, a9 nearly one-half the days of the year are fast-days in Russia, fish may be considered the chief article of food in the Empire.

Fnrs and skins form another important article of trade at Nishni. “The demand for furs being greater in Kuseia than the domestic sup- ply,” notwithstanding the great extent of its territory, forcien peltry dealers do a good basi- nese at the great fair. Merlushki, as the skins of lambs not more than two days old are called, come in large quantities from Bokbara, where they are prepared and dyed in many colors by a process unknown, or at least not applied ‘eleewnere. But, the most costly. and finest lamb- skins, known to commerce as Persians and at the great fair called Karakuldshi, come from the banks of the river Karakol in Bokhara, where the finest breed of sheep is raised. These skins ara ored by Russian furriers in Kasimoco und Kasan, are an inferior article and command a inuch lower price; and the Kughiz signs are the poorcet in the market. The Astrachan skins are nevertheless sold in enormous quantities, one Leipzig furrier uying, in moderately good times, not less than 000 of them so In separate Warehouses arc immense supplies of squirrel and marten-skins and tatls, and sable, wolf, badger, white’cony, and other skins. coTroy Goops. The manufactures of cotton comprise coarse colored goods for the use of the peavants, for upholetering purposes, and for mantles for Tartar women, Who camuot cross the street unless they are wrapped up from head to foot, —goods for the inhabitants of the steppes and for the Germzn colonists on the Volza. Cotton factories, which furnish the goods most in demand at the fuir, exist in great numbers in Russia, and the raw cotton is imported from America. from India, and, in not. __ inconsiderable amounts, from ‘Vurkestan, from Molchara. and from Persia. The cotton for the three later countrics is brought by caravan to Orenburg, and is transported thence to Niehni, by water; a camel will carry two bules from Khiva or Tashkent to Orenbarg, for which service its owner charges from 5 to 7 Tublex. The value of the cotton xoods brought to Nisbni last year was 23,000, 000 rablea. THE LITTLE MARKET. The ‘Little Marker” of the fair occupies an open square near the centre of the tuwn. A character~ istic feature of this place in the great number of dealers in malacuite wares; the ‘‘kwas” retailers also congregate bere, likewise the scllers of Oren- burg laces, the peddlersjof fruits, of snoc or needle-worked goods. ‘The lower balls of zaar are devoted to the sale of French bijouterie, Caucasian knickknacks, and curiousty carved rare wood, inlaid with silver devices. ‘he beet-root sugar manufacture of Russia, which is aluo well represented at Nishni. deserves a few words in closing. ‘The number of beet- sugar manufactories in Russi last year was situated, for the most part, in Kiev, Podolia, and the Southwestern Governments. ‘The largest of the eighteen refining establishments of Kiev is capable of refining 1,000,000 puds of sugar per annum. and the granulated sugar of Kiev is said to be of the best quality. . The Russian ruble, which is of frequent mention here, is. worth about 78 cent, the copeck ix the hundredth part of a ruble, and the pud is equal to about thirty-six pouads svoirdupois. i A’ Disappointment.
