SIR JAMES ORAIIAM ON 'nu: CULTIVA TION OF FLAX. In pur.unnec of a circular signed by Mr. Matthew Browse. agent for Sir James Graham in this district, a Meeting was held on Monday afternooo, at the Grahame. Arm, Longtown, " for the purpoee of taking into coo !adenines the propriety of introducing the cultivation of the Sax crop into this district, and also to endeavour to come to some arrangement with Mr. Rome, of l'arlisle, to Ware the totabliehmt nt of a flax mill at Longtown." The secular was addressed more immediately to the tenantry of the right honourable baronet, but many gentlemen from a distance atti 'Wed who were interested in agricultural Marten, and erne of whom had had considerable cape tome, in the cultivation of flax. The meeting consisted in all of about GO sierras, and as it was stated in the circular that "Sir James Graham would introduce the subject," considerable interest was meek 4. Upon a table in the room in which the meeting miss held were arranged seecimensof flax grown upon Sir J. Graham's estate At Croft:lead, ale. tempi,. taken tuna the Crop cultivated by Mr. Rome. In addition to these w, re specimens of the raw material and the manufactured article. eshibiting all the stages of Chevalier Clauwen's piece. the,, were examined sod discussed previous to the commencement of the pow '.dingo, with considerable euriout) sad Mere.! Seth aft, r one o'clock, Sir JAMES IlltAllAY entered the room, and at once sommented the bueineesof the meeting. 'Ehe right hon. baronet commenced by aimlngising for asking them to meet bins nopieting a metro. w Inch he ha.l no oppoi tunity of bring tag bef .me under their note,. Ilatiis t also disclaimed all mar tart" of a political nature in counexion with the movement, be proem-deal to at ite that in travelling through le'land, about three years since, he ea. struck with the vast euperio. Pity of Ulster over the urn r prosier., of that country, and, on tiotstigating the cause, he found it to be due to the fact that it was the seat of the limn trade of inland, sad much engaged in the cultivation of flax. Ile nom ally costeidered whether there was anything peen - liar in the ur c:imatc at that particular portion of 'retold which gave it an advantage over the South of Scott: and and Nerth of England, and deliberete consilera lion 1.11 him to the couclusion that neither the roil nor climate was superior. (Hear.) lie then thoualit it his e to inve.tigate the subject not only ax connected with !retard. hut also to esteud inquiries to dill. rent part. of Euelarel. (Hear, hear.) In the South he found, pursuing injuirie. as far as Wiltshire, Ne.ex, and into Wide., there was a strong impression that the time had arrived when ih • attention of agriculturists must be directed to the or oath of Nat. The right hen. baronet having ma some r suiration. train intelligent farmers, in which the 1nt...111. - lon of flax into the rotation of cow, was reommiendeil. and hoeing briefly described the Clitee'sni'a'netill.7trirrl7cocfmtrrawyhmicahteril.:la,Tpe taken toisiticyc' I felt that it was of the litTlaw., importance to you, under the cireunistanee., to introduce the cultivation of flax in your !oration of crops; it is what I shall do in reference to the land whit li I farm myself, and my firm conviction is that its general adoption as ;:l inns: advantageous to the iteerests of both owner sail occupier. (!fear.) The diffi culty is where to And a manufacturer an the immediate of the grower who will undertake the pur ehoeu and eunveision of the seed into oileake, and of the straw into Nth. (Rear) 1 fur one would not have any rem et it a joint-.bock affair of this kind, nor wooed I re wow, nil the tanner. to become imerulative to that extent. (Rear.) It is snough foe them to grow the row material. But whilst I felt it was due to ciutiou the farmers upon this. point, I inquired in my own immediate neighbour hoed whether thin. was any gentleman of spirit, skill, capi tal and enterprise, r.ady to undertake the experiment. (Hear.) Well. gentlemen, the result was that in Mr. Rome I found what I sought for, and he expressed himself per feu,y willing to undertake the enterprise if the growers woiril give hint some encouragement. ("Hear, hear," and appla.u.e.) I said to him at tile time, Now don't be rash; doe t do anything without looking wrll what Yeti are about, and al, dating all the chance , ' of success. I advised him to a.. ti Ireland and learn what was going on there. I raid I Is id give )nu the hest introsluctione you can have with regard to opportunities of teeing the growth and mann. Isnot e of flax. I am not unknown there, and every facility shall be offorili d you of acquiring all the information you can pevibly obt tin ; and, moreover, if you like ri go, my agent. Mr. Itrown, shall accompany you. (.'applause.) Mr. Rome wont accordingly, and returned home very much temllrmed in his previous opinion, that there was co much superiority in the mode adopted by Belgium and in Ireland, that he was not unwilling to proceed at once, if toe grievers of this neighbourhood will only give bun soo.e es rtainty with regard to the supply of the raw material. (" II ar," and applause.) Ileanng this, I natu rally wrote off to my two great neighbour , all-powerful on Ouch aide of the fiordcr. Lord Carlisle and the Duke of. bucclevelt, to learn what they hail to say on the subject. They wen of nay opinion, that if thin cultivation could be introduced. with the ant of a couple of manufsetoner ludo pendeut of the land, it was a great opportunity, which oiled oat to be neglected. (Hear.) But the great proprie. son can do nothing of thenzsdres, linas.isted And without cooperation. y mast have the support of the yeomen sad the fanner., and without it all uur efforts are in vain. If the way be leafed by your assent to this proposition, I shall have no looitation in getting a person over from [re load to guperintend the process of " pulling," at my own east. (" Hear, - and applause.) So, also. at the sacrifice of some inning., I am willing to come to an arrangement with Mr. Rome to establish a manufactory in this district. (Renewed app! me.) I found that some objections were made to taking the raw material so far as Carlisle. I find that Mr. Rome, so confluent is he that the manufacture will *mond, ha. already made arrangenienta for obtaining premiers is Car:i.le for that purpose. But so I have already stated it is ne.eseary in my view to have an immediate ap. primate ion of ti.c p:aee of growth to the place of manufac ture, an lif we give Mr. Rome encouragement to open another establisliraret in Longtown as a sort of branch ma aufactery ha is ready to enter into that arrangement like. wise.

The wife was accordingly examined; and, in sum ming up, the learned Judge drew particular attention to the importan, of hating admitted the wife as a witness in the present instance, when the wife was the only person who could possibly have any knowledge of defendant's pri vate business matters, the husband having nothing to do with the books and apparently devuiJ of memory.

The declaration in this case was founded upon a contract between the parties to the action, dated the 12th of Fe bruary, 1817, by which the plaintiffs agreed to supply 350,000 sleepers, according to the orders to be given by the engineers of the company. The plaintiffs complained in this action that the company's engineers had neglected to give the necessary orders for the sleepers, so that the plain tiffs were unable to supply them and realise a profit by doing the business. The case came before the court upon de murrer, but the question discussed was whether the con tract was only that the plaintiffs should be ready to supply the goods when the orders were given, or whether it con tained a corresponding liability upon the defendants that their engineers should give the orders. Their lordships, alter hearing Mr. Wines and Mr. Bovill took time to consider their judgment. Judgment postponed. Bureaus at Noe false IN INIDDIANIX.—B*I9III Ma. JUITICS TALPDAMD AND a U.anna JI - M.

JIAILT.-111TROPEG NEGOTIATION OP A BILL OP EXCIIIANOR—Tas xsw EVIL/ENOS LAW. The plaintiff in this um is butler to Sir Herbert Jenncr Yost, and the defendant d an army and navy tailor in Re gent-street. The action was brought to recover as money had and received the sum of 261. Its., part of 301. paid by the plaintiff in d'scharge of a bill of exchange accepted by him, and handed to the plaintiff's son, under the circum stances stated below. Mr. lluddlestime and Mr. Powell appeared (or the plain tiff, and Mr. Gifford was for the defendant. The plaintiff's case was, that on Saturday, the 26th July last, be was in want of a small sum of money, and applied to Edward Hart, a son of the defendant, to lend ham 31. until the Tuesday following. This sum Edward Hart 'greed to lend him upon receiving 64. for the accomminla Lion, and security fur the advance. The plaintiff offered to leave his watch as security, but this was declined, and the plaintiff then said that he had ha his pocket a bill of exchange for 301., and it was agreed that he shoukl leave this bill as security, and he did so. According to the plaintiff'. cam, Edward Hart got the 3/. of his father. and the advance was really made by the father. On the Tues day following the plaintiff called to pay the money he had borrowed, and get the bill back, and he made aeveral sub sequent applications, but he could not succeed in regain ing possession of his acceptance. At length, however, he was threatened to be sued by Mr. Wilson upon the bill, and paid the amount of it, and it was to recover the di!• ferenee between the amount of the bill and the 31. Cis., as security for which it was deposited, that the action was brought. The plaintiff was called, and his evidence wee to the effect above stated. lie applied to Edward Hart for the loan in his father'. shop, in Regent-street, and Edward Hart went to his father, and, as witness believed, got the money front him. The father was within hearing of what pass. d. The bill was an accommodation bill, given to enable witness to put his son in the way to become a na- Mast schoolmister. . Mr. Wilma, an upholsterer, of Holborn, said that Hart, the elder, bought furniture of him to the amount of 111. 51., and pledged the bill in question as security for the amount. Edward Hart was called on the part ef the defendant, and he stated that the plaintiff applied to him to discount the hill, which witness agreed to do, after he had made in• quiries u to it, and he gave him 31. on account out of his own pocket. His father was not cognisant of his arrange ment with the plaintiff, and afterwards witness discounted the bill with his father. CI -Ile discounted it in the usual way of business. He was to give plaintiff 251. for the bill, but he did not give it to him, in consequence of what he had heard respecting him. All that the plaintiff had said was • gross and wilful falseheod, except as to the 31. When his father discounted the bill he gave witness 15/., and deducted 151. from what he owed him. He had never endorsed the bill to his father, as he never asked him to do so. lie spoke a word to his father about the bill. His lordship at the conclusion of hi. evidence directed that this witness should not leave the court. John Hart, the father, stated that be remembered dis counting the bill fur his son, and that he gave him 151., and took 151. off his account. Ile never knew Bart until he served him with the writ in this action. Ile never lent him 32., and he never saw him and his son iu company in witness's shop, but they might have been there without his knowledge. The bill when produced bore no endorsement from Edward Hart to his father, but was endorsed by the father to Mr. Wilson. When Mr. Wilson threatened to sue upon the bill the whole amount of it was paid to his soli citor, who banded over the amount duo to him, and retained the balance under a notice Irons the present plaintif His lordship summed up, and the jury after a short con sultation in the bus gave a verdict for the plaintiff fur 261. I4s. and stated their opinion that the defendant had taken die bill with knowledge of the circumstances under whisk it was got by his son and without value. Saws doubt was entertained by his lordship es to whether the form of the action was right, and he therefore gave the dshisdast's counsel leave to move to enter a nonsuit. Mr. Huddlestone (at the conclusion of the ease) asked whether Edward Hart, after the evidence be had given, was to be allowed to leave the court. Mr. Justice Talfourtl said that he did not think this case fell within the rule upon which, he, at least, should act under the recent statute, by doing that, which of course the learned counsel referred to, commit far perjury. He thought three things should concur before that course was taken— first, that the judge should be satisfied that there was per jury; then that the jury should easter with him ; and lastly, that the judge should think there was a reasonable chance of conviction. These three things did not concur in this case. Mr. Huddlestone—Upon the last point—there were not two w itneases to contradict him. Mr. Justice Talfourd—That was so; but it was not neces• wry for him to say more than he had said as a reason for not exercising the great powers conferred by the act. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.-YESTERDAY. Barons Ma. CONNNSIONLII HOLLOTD. IN F. This was the adjourned meeting far last examination ' of this bankrupt, of the firm of Castelli, Oiustiniani, and Co., merchants, of Bury-court, St. Mary-ass. Mr. Lawrence, representing the joust creditors, said it had been agreed that the examination should be further adjourned until the day appointed for the last examina tion of F. F. Braggiotti, another of the partners in the firm, which was fixed for the 17th of February. The other part ners, &Teri., Castelli and (1. B. Oiustiniani, were disputing the adjudication, and the question would shortly come before the Court of Appeal. Mr. Cotterill said the assignees had not had time to look into the accounts; and on that ground, an adjournment would be necessary. The examination was adjourned accordingly. The following is a copy of the balance-sheet as placed on the file of the court. The accounts, which are very volumi nous, extending to 37 closely-written folios, hare been pre pared by Mr. Coleman, accountant, of Coleman-street.

Aar Fraose Berdugo was litnayexamiard, charged with cutting and wounding James Almon, who died on Saturday last at the London 'Juanita', from the c&•cts of the injuries he received. Mr. Parker, solicitor, of St. l'anl's Churchyard, stated that the prisoner was a Chilian, and belonged to a small town in Valparaiso. He at first thought the prisoner was a Spaniard, and accordingly waited upon the Spanish consul, who told him to de itild the man if he was a Spaniard. Mr. Parker then had an interview with the prisoner at the House of Detention, and learnt that be was a Chaim. Ile thought it his duty to mention it to the Chilian consul, who conferred with the superior authorities at France, and the consequence was that he was instructed to defend tb' pri soner. Ile had been to the prisoner's lodgings and found in his box his sea knife and wearing apparel. He hail to request that the prisoner might be allowed a change of ap parel. Mr. Ingham—l can't make any order. You must use your discretion. The evideuce of former witnesses having been read over, Mary Ann Smith said-1 am an unfortunate girl. Almon has lived with me three weeks. On Wednesday night week, I was at 106, New Gravel-lane, skylarking with him. The prisoner and another foreigner came in to stay fur the night. The prisoner's companion sent for • pot of half 111111.half and half a pint of gin. Ile handed it all round. W he u he haddled it to Almon he did nut take it immediately. The prisoner then lifted up the curtains of the bed, and held the knife over Mary Ann Kerwin. Sarah Slater said to Kerwin, " Oct out of bed, or you'll be stabbed." She got out of Ind, and Almon got up off his chair to get his pipe. The prisoner stabbed him there and then right in the stomach. James said to me, " Oh, Mary Ann, gn out and see it you can catch him, or lam dead.' Emily Wil lis held her hand out to keep him in, and I ran up Cow lane after the prisoner. I called out " Stop thief ! " and " Murder !" and the policeman caught him. I have since seen the body. Mr. Parker cross-examined the witness at great length, with a view to show that they had got some money out of the prisoner. She said she did not ask him for any. Sergeant Squires, 14 K, stated that he received the knife produced from the lad Scott, who picked it up three doors from the house. There was blood on the blade. Mr. Osborne Johnson, house-surgeon at the London Hospital, said—Almon was brought in on the morning of the Bth. I examined him shortly after, and found a wound near the left lung, just opposite the cartilage of the seventh rib on the left side. The wound wet drawn together, and the man was in a state of collapse. There was little or no bleeding. Ile died on Saturday, the 10th. The body was opened, and a post-mortem examination was made on Mon day lust. 1 was present. The wound was passing ob liquely backward to the right side. It was three inches long. The knife entered the abdomen in an oblique dime- tion, and the wound was found to have entered the liver and passed clean through the left lobe. There was upwards I of forty ounces of blood extravatated in the abdomen. The hemorrhage from the liver was I think sufficient to cause death of itself. The liver was larger than UMW. The in juries I found were sufficient to cause death. The knife produced would inflict such a wound, not as a stab, but as a plunge in an oblique direction downward. Mr. Purker—suppose I threw on the table a knife which the other foreigner had in his possession, and was much larger than this. Suppose also that it was picked up in the identical spot, and was smeared with blood, would nut that make some doubt in your mind as to which of the two might have been used ? Mr. Johnson-1 should like to see the other one. Mr. Parker—Untortunately 1 have not got it; the other man has one. Mr. Johnson—Then, I can't say. It would be impos sible to say whether it was caused by that or any other knife ; but that knife would produce it in the manner 1 describe. The depositions were then read over and translated to the prisoner. The prisoner was then committed to Newgate for trial fur wilful murder, and was removed from the dock in a very depressed state. cent, Plumper, Rifleman, flown, sad Harpy.

The petition prayed that the commission might be superseded, and that the parties at whose instance' the commission had been issued, and Ur. Baker, to whom prior to the traverse the custody of the person of the luna• tie and the care and management of his estate had loco committed by order of the court though no grant was made to him, might be ordered to delis, r up certain papers and documents and other property belonging to the petitioner in their possession. At the hearing of the petition in December last, Mr. Bolt and Mr. Terrell, fur the petitioner, asked for en order according to the prayer of the petition. The Solivitor-General and - Mr. Amphlett, for the parties who had obtained the commission, and. Mr. Baker, did not oppose the supersedes", but asked for a direction for pay meld of their costs incurred in the matter of the COMMIS• kiln', anterior to the traverse. The commission had been properly obtained, the conduct of the petitioner having af forded a just ground for such pruceeding. This view had been taken by the first jury open the inquisition, and the respondents therefore ought to be allowed their eases and expenses, properly incurred in the proceedings under ' the commission, which were ter the protection of the peti• Winer. Thu court, they submitted, had power to award such expenses, notwithstanding the result of the traverse, under the statute li Bee.

Lord Cranworth now delivered the judgment of the court, and observed that the supersedes was a matter of course, and that the only question upon which time had been taken for consideration was as to the title insisted on by the re eponilent to the cost of suing out the comini.sion. This reeilved itself into two questions—the first, whether the court had jusbiliction to award such coats; und the other, whether, if it had jurisdiction, the present was a proper case for its exercise. The answer to the latter question depended upon the conduct of the parties in suing out the commission, how far they had been ac tuated in so doing by proixd motives, and upon other ques tions of that sort relating to the conduct of the parties. Having no information upon that sulject, the court had applied to the Lord Chancellor, by whom they had been told that he was 'wadi, d that the parties 1-ad acted bona fide. They were satisfied, therefore, if the case was one in which they had jurisdiction to award the ends, the circum stances were such as to make it desirable to award them. The only question then was whether the court had juris diction. Now, it was clear that, independently of the sta tute 6 (leo. IV., c. 63, ho court had no jurisdiction to award costs where the lunacy hail been successfully tea screed. That had been decided by Lord Loughbo- rough in the cast of "Ex pane Fearne," in Vesey's Reports, vol. S. It had been so decided on the ground, that alter the successful traverae of the inquisition there was no fund left out of which to pay those costs. The Lord Chancellor there obscried that the case was one in which, if he could act in imperio, the parties had entitled themselves to all the costs he could give; but that he bad no jurisdiction. The same principle had after wards been fully recognised by Lord Eldon in a case of " Sherwood v. Sanderson" (19 Veg.); who had there given costs, not by virtue of his jurisdiction in lunacy, but be cause the property of the lunatic in that case consisted in part of a fund in court over which hislordehip had jurisdic tion. lie thought he might deal with that fend for the pur pose of awarding oats, but he, at the ',erne time, expressly recognised the doctriuc laid down by Lord Loughborough in the previous case. The reason of the doctrine was clearly that the right to award casts arose out of the right to ad minister the estate of the lunatic, and ceased with that right. The question then remained of how far that &se mis had been altered by the statute 6 Geo. IV., c. 53. If that statute gave no jurisdiction in resocet of a provision for costs except while the traverse was pending, there would be an end of the question, for the law as to costs after the tea verse had succeeded would be left " as it was before the sta tute. Now the statute was entitled an Oct for limiting the time within which inquisitions of lunacy may be traverse'', and for making other regulations in the proceedings pend ia* the traverse ;" and the act afterwards, in section 3,pro seeded to enact that " after the return of the iuquieition of lunacy, and notwithstanding any petition or order which may be depending relating to a traverse of such inquisi tion, it shall be lawful for the Lord Chancellor, or the per sona charged with the exercise of jurisdiction in lunacy, to proceed to make such order relative to the custody and commitment of the person or persons, and the commitment, management, and application of the estate and effects of any person or persons who shall or may have been found lunatic, as he or they shall think necessary or proper." The question was, whether that gave any 4uriulictton as to costs after the determination of the traverse in favour of the al leged lunatic. Thecourt had come to the conclusion that it did nut. All the act did was to empower the court to proceed to make orders as to the application of the estate pending the traverse, without waning, as they were previously bound to do, till the lunacy was confirmed by the result of the traverse. This construction was made abundantly clear when it was seen what a contrary construction would lead to; for the act enabled the court to deal " with the person and the estate " of the party , and as these words were all part of the same sentence, the consequence of the construc tion of the act contended for by the respondents would be, that after the successful traverse of the lunacy, the court would still have jurisdiction to deal, not only with the estate, but with the person also of the alleged lunatic. The court therefore had no juriaiiction conferred by the act. It had been argued, however, that though this should be so, the court might still make the payment of the cods a condition of the delivery up of the documents and property in the hands of the respondents, belonging to the petitioner. To this proposition, however, the court could not secede. The in quisition having been successfully traversed, the delivery up of the papers and property of the alleged lunatic be came a mere act of simple testier. They had come into the possession of the respondents, because, by anticipation as it were, it was necessary for the protection of the party, supposing that the result of the inquisition would establish a title to them. It was reason able that for such a purpose they should have them; but upon the reversal of the lunacy they could be looked on only as the property of the alleged lunatic. Any attempt to impose such a condition as the one asked would, indeed, be simply nugatory, for it would leave the respondents open to an action of trover, or other action, at the inmtiknee of the petitioner. The result, therefore, of the whole case would be a simple order superseding the commission , and for the delivery up of the petitioner s papers and property. Banes Yies-CupeatasTra• ea. GRAND Titt:Sll RAILWATCOMPANT T. BROOM AND 071111113. Mr. Stuart proceeded with his statement of this ease, and alleged, as • further breach of trust, that the defendants, the managing directors, had appropriated certain sums as payment to themselves for Ihrtr services, there being no provision in the subscribers' agreement, to authorise such an application of the funds. Mr. Welfurd then proceeded to read those parts of the answers of the defendants which were relied on, and was proceeding to the depositions, when Mr. Holt and Mr. Selwyn objected, on the part of the de fendant Brodie, that they could not be read on the ground that they were informally taken, the interrogatories being headed, In a cause of the Grand Trunk Railway Coln pony r. Brodie and others" (naming them), but omitting the name of Harman, one of the defendants. Mr. Willcock and Mr. Osborn, Mr. John Baillic and Mr Kenyon, Mr. Stevens, Mr. Roger., and some other gentle men objected for other defendants, and urged that these de positions were so informally taken that nu indictment fur perjury could be maintained upon them. Mr. Stuart and Mr. Collier were laird in answer, and argued that if this was an objection at all it should have been taken on motion to suppress the depositions, and not on the hearing, and that since Lord Campbell's Act, 14 & 15 Viet., c. 100, a. 20, at all events an indictment fur per pa could be sustained, whatever might have been the case leer, and that it would be for the jury to say whether the ' be cause was sufficiently identi fi ed. 1 Mr. Itolt replied. The Vice-Chancellor said his present impression was that the depositions were inadmissible, but he would give his opinion tomorrow. At all events, he should not dismiss the bill, but should give the plaintiff liberty to make such application to the court for the purpose of rectifying the error as he might be advised. Barons Vra-Cessintren Pram GAILDIIIO2I I. GOODALL. Mr. Chandler stated that an infant, a ward of the court, in this suit, had beta soar time since apprenticed (or • term of five years, that he had recently enlisted in the 60th Rides, and that be was to be shipped off shortly for the Cape of Good Ilope. The guardian was dmirous of pay ing the smart money, as it w..s called, to gurchax his dis charge, but he had arertaint.d from the infant that if he were bought out he was determined to re•enlist. Under these circumstances the guardian was desirous to act as the court should direct. The Vice Chancellor thought that the will of the infant was not to control the court in doing what was for his benefit. It would be the better course for the infant and guardian, with the learned counsel, to attend the court at the private room u soon as it could be arranged. Ile had no doubt the military authorities would allow the young Ran to come to the court. All parties attended in private at the tieing of the court, but the result did not transpire.

The sales to-day arc about 5,000 bales, of which expostcrs and speculators have each taken about 500 bales. MANCIIEiTEII, JAN. 15.—The market for cotton cloth and yarns has been quieter to-day, and indeed during the whole week, than it was seven or right days ago, and price. are barely maintained, except in low numbers of water twist, and some few of the medium counts of mule. The price of cotton, which was one cause of weakness on Tues day, has come a shade lower from the Visited States by this steamer, and hence sellers both of yarn and cloth are more disposed to close with the terms of buyers than they have hitherto been. The India news has nut eructed the market much so far, but thu advice' from Bombay are expected to lead to business, though scarcely so favourable as those by the previous overland mail. THE IRON TRADE.—BsaMlsonaw, JAN. lb.—The quarterly meetings of the ironmasters, now terminated, have, upon the whole, been characterised by even more cheering prospects than we were able to report as the result of thu meetings of the trade here last Thursday. At Dudley orders are said to have been given moro freely, and great hopes are entertained of an unprovement in prices early in the spring. There is, perhaps, not another article of large consumption where the price hes so widely alternated as it has dune with regard to iron; there are persons living who have seen pig iron as low as 435., and again ascend to 131. per ton, whilst Staffordshire bars have helm as high as 23f., dropping therefrom at a swoop to 171., when everybody pre dicated ruin to the ironcrusters, although the same descrip tion of iron has since fallen to something like one-third of the latter price. A subject much discussed at thew meetings of the trade has been the discovery of ironstone in Northamptonshire, especially in the immediate neighbour hoodof the county town. The Staffordshire ironmutershave already purchased largely for the purpose of consuming it iu their works. Vtry fine specimens of the iron ore have been found on the estate of Major-General Arbuthnot; after may it was found to yield 48 per cent. of pig iron, whilst the pure character of the mineral renders it of great value for amalgamating with the iron-stone of other dis tricts. It is needless to point out that this discovery will be of great value to the Staffordshire ironworks in affording them a large supply of good mineral, and thus enable them more successfully to compete with the Scotch and Welch makers. HOSIERY AND LACE TRADES.—Norrtnottax, Jan. M.—The cotton stocking trade fur wrought-shaped hose is in a fair condition, but the slop branches are half annihilated by the round frames, females working at them and producing 90 dozen, or 1,080 pairs in one week. The bobbin-net trade in general is in a depressed condition, but, as a matter of course, this varies in the different branches. Tho pushers are, however, considered in the beat state as regards demand, the other principles in general making fancy nets of inferior quality. WOOL.—DUAUFORD, Jan. 15.—There is a quietness in the purchase of Wools, especially of the middle and lower classes. The prices sought lately totally preclude any business being done except on the narrowest scale possible.
