TRADE AND FINANCE. (From the Daily &Urs.) Tuts indications of returning stringency in the money market are plain and distinct. The drain of bullion towards Egypt has never been arrested, and we learn that the Bank of France is constantly being coin, and that its specie reserve is now re duced below 8,000,0001. sterling. The continental exchanges, which rallied mo mentarily under the efficacious measures of the Bank of England, and the fulness of the money reserve which apprehensions as to the futare bad induced most of those engaged in mercantile affairs to provide, contributed greatly to the somewhat delusive subsequent appearances of ease. , A week ago general expectation was in favour of a further reduction in the rate of discount, while now the steady course of events leaves little pro spect of delay in the resumption of a higher quota tion. The widely-spread effects of that great re• volution in trade and commerce to which Europe and the world have been subjected by the Ameri can war, became immediately evident on the re duction of the Bank rate of discount to 7 per cent. The exchanges began to droop on the inquiry for continental bills; and the additional political disturbance in the north of Germany has added a complication to the movement engendered by the reviving silver demand. Those who had sent money to this country in anticipation of receiving 0 or 10 per cent. interest—those who bad dehiyed their payments abroad under the influence of the same hope—and those who I seek to take advantage of the present moment for silver remittances to the East, suddenly checked a short time back, are now all intent on completing the engagements that then were temporarily suspended. Nothing is more easy than in a time of pres sure to rally resources where resources are abun dant. Financial resources abound in England at the present time ; but it is infinitely more ad visable to take a calm and deliberate view of our position than to submit ourselves again to that spasmodic action producing alarm, and, almost immediately afterwards, wonder that such alarm should have been experienced. The consumption of cotton, which has steadily increased in spite of the enormous advance in price, and notwithstanding the substitution of other manufactures, was sure to give rise to those efforts owing to which the plant is now growing under every propitious clime, not only in Asia, Africa, and more distant parts, but in Europe itself. It need hardly be repeated that every great change must make itself severely felt in some part or by some class. Even railways, while they have quintupled the resources of civilization and reduced the prices of provisions in such a degree that the depreciation in the value of gold itself has been in van neutralised, have yet occa sioned the ruin of a numerous host of individuals, whose decadence followed that of tho system on which they were dependent. In the case of cotton, distress has, so far, fallen almost exclusively on the wortzpeopie employed in the manufacture of the fibre ; it is for the future to show whether distress may not extend to other classes ; but it is for the present to decide whether its course shall be arrested or continue. The evil to be apprehended from serious fican- eial disturbance on this account lies within small space. It is simply that of facility for 1. mist speculation in cotton. It is sufficiently clear from the comparison that has been previously given, as to the prices at present and last year, and the stocks of cotton then and at present in hand, that little evidence exists of im proper speculative movement. The state of the returns front the manufacturing districts confirms this view. The employment for the population in on the increase ; and some of the beat kinds of cotton are fairly warked out. Here are all the incentives to au extended search for cotton, not withstanding the unceasing and widely-spread in quiry already set about. So far as capital is concerned, the time is singularly propitious to speculation. Cir cumstances, often discussed and reviewed, have favoured the establishment of banks and credit institutions in unusual number. The ideas of projectors have grown with the times ; and enter prise, become too vast for the fortunes of the individual magnates of an age when courage, genius, and chivalry alike enter the lista in the contest for the prize of wealth, enlists an army of names illustrious in commerce, to conquer mil lions, and to direct a new Gulf stream which is to ♦ivify with tropical warmth regions distant as the poles, and where trade has been as little known as the milder influence of civilization herself. It is possible that one great reason of the spas raodie action of the money market—those great throbs of the arteries of supply lately witnessed— may lie in the change of hands which a large part of the floating capital iu London has during the past year experienced. The temptation to write for shares in new banks and credit companies Las been too great to admit the conclusion that very many in the mercantile community have resisted its seduction. It must not be forgotten that every pound sterling withdrawn from private Lands and confided to those of a company has been the reduction of 69 much of provision against want on the one hand, and so much premium offered to speculation on the other. An individual whose diminished trade has admitted of tho employment of his capital in other directions, must recall his loans whenever returning activity may warrant the faller resumption of his own business ; and this is what is actually taking place. The increasing em ployment in the manufacturing districts occasions the recall of amounts that had been temporarily loaned in London, and the impetus given to commerce generally also calls for additional means. Meantime the borrowers have subscribed to companies of va rious kinds ; and, as the money has not passed out of the country, but is merely in other hands, those called upon to r, pay advances are compelled to bor row for the neces.saryprovision they must make. As this happens at a time when the legitimate engage satihts entered into in connexion with our eaten sive cotton search have to he met, the very denu dation of resources by individuals, who, like the streandeta into an inland lake, have been draining themselves to create one great reservoir, leads to an application to that one treasure slot where its own terms can be- imposed ; and, when every tem• porary want has been supplied, satiety very natu rally results. So far, then, the danger possible, apart from political causes, is in the facility afforded by the concentration of large means in the hands of new companies and credit establishments, intent on securing unusual protita, the prospect of which is greatly favoured by the moat exceptional array of events. No amount of warning will at every time muffice to ward off all disaster, but if a timely sketch of probabilities be presented, it may at least serve eis binder the embarkation of some adventurers in dangerous• undertaking, and to preserve fortunes that might easily be involved in the indiscriminate mil for an illusive prize. Sooner or later the precious metals exported and in course of e..port innAt return to Europe. L Egypt, which is after all • small and quiet country, the absorption cannot continue for an ' indefinite period. In England we appear to be little aware of the sums forwarded to that one spot. In France they were calculated a short time back at 20,000,0001. sterling, and now are stated at 16,000,000/. for the season. Of this amount upwards of 8,000,000 T. are asserted to have been already sent. The shipments for some time back from Marseilles by each steamer to Alexandria have been from about 100,000/. to 200,000/. ster ling. The Egyptians have few wants which are not supplied from Europe ; and, save the comparatively unimportant amounts sent to the interior, each coin committed to the fellahs speedily creates a want for implements or clothing, and will find its way back ere long in exchange for those commo dities. With regard to India, the cue is different ; and yet there are points that lead to present similar results so far as an indefinite conti nuance of the bullion export is concerned. At the present time the exchange operations with India are greatly under the control of the banks. By their means advances are made to the growers ; and, speculating but speculating legitimately—upon the extent of probable as well sa of actual advances, they take bullion in Europe and import it to the East. So large have the advances been already on cotton acc. cunt in India that the capitals of the Presidencies are ac tually in want of coin ; aud, with Abundance of metal bars, the demand on the Mint is I=l:muscly beyond the possible rate of supply. Notes onii exist in small quantities; and bullion, like any base material, lies dead, with money at fabulous rates of interest, from the impracticability of ob taining cash loans thereon. There is less probabi lity that the demand for coin will fall off in India by attracting an additional supply. Supply can only reach the capitals from Europe, from the Mint, or from the interior. Suitable silver coin is not to be had in Europe, the Mint can only work gradually, and the ryot disbelieves in interest and credit—he hoards his coin. The difficulty and delay in procuring coin may, however, prevent in some degree speculation in bullion export, which, while exchange or coin be not procurable, is nearly useless. The main safeguard, however, lies in the careful digestion of these facts, and in the avoidance of any excessive quantity of advances, either on bullion shipments from this country or on cotton to arrive. With reference to cotton bills, it is probable that in the dislocated state of the trade no great amount can be afloat ; but reasonable care should still be urged in respect of individual engagements, which might in these times easily be excessive. With Brazil and with other parts of the southern continent of America we are each day entering into new and interesting relations. At present we are scarcely exporting anything but coin ; and yet it is in the direction of South America, next to Egypt, that our prospects are the brightest. We have there a considerable civilized population, used to luxury, and to some extent proficient in rude manufacture. We have also there a vast assem blage of natives, who here and there in small knots are beginning to devote themselves to the cultiva tion of the cotton plant, and to trading with the established communities. For every knot of Indians which we detach from the wild tribes we create the want of clothing and other necessaries, and every individual of European origin for whom we create a trade with those Indians is also driven to us for the articles which we teach those Indians to require and to use. There is trade to be opened with the South enough to double the em ployment for our own manufacturing industry, and to lead to a harvest of profit even beyond that ever gathered in from the interrupted trade be tween this country and the northern continent of America. It seems difficult to arrive at any other con clusion than that the cotton demand must con tinue ; and the continuance of the cotton demand still means the export of bullion from England and from France. There are circumstances that may check and from time to time hinder and delay that export. In due course the specie current will be turned, and the influx recommence ; but, meantime, our great safeguard will be in the avoidance of facilities to undue speculation. With the abun dant wealth and ample resources of this country there is no cause for ex:itement or alarm. While the present movement continues it is to be expected that money will remain dear ; this state of things will itself help to prevent speculation. With the prices current in trade it is possible to encounter a period of moderate stringency ; and with adequate profits on trade on the one hand, while on the other we support our credit by a conservative policy at the Bank, we may reason ' ably expect to come out of the cotton crisis with I enlarged experience and with greatly improved I commercial prospects for the future. taw inttllistnte.

The import of 1862 was only 72,029 bales ; and that of 1563 hos not exceeded 131,648 bales. It is obvious that so large • deficiency in import from what has hitherto been the main source of supply moat create a revolution in the trade ; and the receipts from India during 1863 exhibit an excess on throe of 1862 of about 160,000 bales; from Egypt the in crease has been 64,3:4 ; and from the West Indies 40,722 bake, principally Smyrna ; from China, hitherto an unpro ductive source of supply, about 21)0,000 bales have directly or indirectly been received. ConiduarnoN.—A. prosperous state of general trade during a large proportion of the past year has influenced au extent of home consumption of cotton which excessively high prices could not control. At the close of 1802 the consumption was reduced to a se le of about 15,000 bales weekly. It increased with the opening year ; and has been since maintained on suck • scale that the average weekly consumption is estimated to have been 26,491 bales.

The two petseners were amongst the most audacious, and having been seen in three several attempts upon gentlemen's watches as they were escorting ladies from the lobbies to the carriages, they ware secured. Although working in concert, the prisoners, when taken, professed not to know each other, yet when called on to give their addressee, both which proved false, the one was in Old Nichol-street, and the other in Half Nichol-street, within fifty yards of each other. The prisoners were known to the police as having been pre viously engaged in 'Under transactions. They were remanded. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Mr. Slephats, pawnbroker, of Brewer-atreet, wu snm mooed for refusing to deliver up a gold watch pledged by Patrick Gavin. The complainant had pledged a gold watch, value N., for IF. Is. When the year was out, the owner's wife went, and paid three months interest beyond the year, under the Pawnbrokers Act. Ou the money being finally sent to redeem the watch, complainant was told that the watch had been redeemed, on the declaration obtained by a per son who gave the 0111310 of M•Pherson, several months previously, and that the three months' interest had been taken by the assistant in mistake, as he did not know the watch had been redeemed. The three months' interest was then handed to the complainant. The question was whether the declaration was a sufficient answer to the demand of the complainant. Mr. Neate, for defendant, contended that, under the Pawnbrokers Act, the pawnbroker was bound to deliver the watch up to the party who had made the declaration before • magistrate that the ticket had beeo lost, and claimed it. Sir F. Pollock and Mr. Knight had some years ago confirmed this view of the law. Mr. boos was of opinion that complaioast'a remedy was not under the rawnbrokere Act, and dumissed the sum mons. WESTMINSTER. Jam Payne, a respectable-looking, middle-aged man, was placed at the bar, charged with felony. John Simmonds, assistant to a butcher, at 259, Fulham road, said—This man stole a large piece of beef, and ran MT with it. Mr. Sella—Where was it ; hanging in front of your shop! Witness—Yes, but it was not banging there by itaelf—it ran on a joint. Mr. Selie—What do you mean? Witmer —He did not take all ; he only took a part. Mr. Selfe—llid not take all. How do .. yon mesii! Witness—Why it was this way ;he did not take all. He cat off what he wanted from a quarter of beef hanging at the door. Mr. Salle—lle cut the beef ae it was hanging at the door, you say ; where did he get the knife from Witness—Slipped out his pocket knife and cut it. He just mired the bone and took the meat. He took 51b. away Mona. We heard of it directly, and we followed barn up, and we got him beck. Mr. Salle —Did you get the beef back Prisoner—l Deter had it. A pocket knife would not do it. Witness—But a pocket knife dal do it. We dad not find the beef on him. Prisoner—Did you see me cut the beef off! Why, of course you did not • you were all inside the shop ; you know my lock et koife would not cut that piece of beef off. Witness—Why did you run, if you didn't take it' . . Prisoner—Anybody' would ion' such a morning u this. You couldo't walk, your worship, it was so slippery. I never took the beef. I wasn't at the shop door at all, awl they know nothing about it. I can prove it. Witness—And I can prove be was seen to take it. Prisoner wee remanded. THE CASE OF G. V. TOWNLEY. (From the Examietr.) To our great astonishment we learn that the judge who tried Townley, though directing and approving the verdict of the jury, advised a further inquiry to ascertain whether or not the prisoner was insane. For this a sort of new trial was directed by a commission, with the change, merely verbal in the issue, of mad or not mad, instead of guilty or not guilty. No matter how upright may be the intentions of persons entrusted with such an inquiry, the serious fact that a life depends on it will have a subtle in fluence on the judgment. The prisoner knows how to play his part, and so to raise doubts, the benefit of which will certaidy be given to him. But if this course is to be takes at last, would it not be better for the credit of justice, and fairer for its adminis trators, that it should be taken at first? If the inquiry whether T3wnley was insane or not had preceded the in quiry whether he was or was not guilty of murder, a care fully considered verdict would not have been nullified, and a criminal court stultified. CAA we expect jurors to devote their time and best at. Unities to questions of fact involving life or death when they know that the result of their moat careful labours may be set aside by a private commission! Will they not na turally be disposed to save themselves trouble and to come to • hasty conclusion, as there is sure to be another inquiry reversing their decision ! . . And that is not all. Medical authority is prevailing against the authority of the law, and criminal justice m losing more and more of it. certainty. A man who LAB had any mad ancestors may consider him self privileged to commit murder without any fear of the gallows, fur he has only to play a very easy part afterwards, though it may b proved beyond a doubt that he knew what he was about, and he will Lave the benefit of the theory of uncontrollable impulse. What benefit of clergy used to Le beoefit of medical crotchets is now. How it is that any ►loodstaiued prisoner is mad enough sot to peso himself off mad is what we cannot comprehend. THE RESPITED CON V icrs, George Victor Townley ban not received her Majesty' pardon, neither has his sentence been commuted, lie has been removed to • lunatic asylum, in complimuce with the provisions of so act of parliament. The certificate required by the act was duly forwarded to the Secretary of State by the prison authori ties, signed by two magistrate* and two medical men, lade- pendent of the gaol surgeon. Previous to receiving this, Sir George Grey had a report from the presiding judge, Berm' Martin, recommending a medical import'. Sir George Grey referred this to the Lunacy Commissioners, who appointed three of their members to conduct the in quiry, sod who coincided with the opinion of the local authorities. The act also provides for the support of the prisoner, either from the perish or from hie property, if poesemed of any. Joseph Mahaig, the soldier convicted of causing or abetting the death of a woman at Guildford, having also taken poison himself, has had his sentence com I muted to penal servitude for life, upon the strong reomn ineedatiou to mercy of the jury, forwarded by the proud ing judge, Baron Pigott.— Olasc rrer. - - - CRUELTY.—For some time pasta woman named Clara Noble, Zi, has been living with her husband vim at Grove-end-road, St. John's-wood. Yesterday morn ing, at three o'clock, she was taken in labour. On her master and mistime learning the foot they bundled both Noble and her husband into the street. After waiting some time in the bitter cold and damp night air, the hue band found a cab, in which be placed his wife, and directed the cabman to drive her to the Marylebone Workhouse. They arrived there about four o'clock, and on opening the door of the cab it was found that during the journey the woman had given birth toe fine child. Every care and at tention was paid to the mother and little stranger, and we are glad to say both are doing well.—Morylehone Mercury. CRYSTAL PALACE.. -- HALT-A.-CROWN DAT. SATURDAY, JAN. 2.

Tranquillity has prevailed at home ; and • harvest of unusual abundance has eminently contributed to the general welfare of the l►bouring claws. This has been the more acceptable, because the absence of all direct im portations of cotton from the United State, has continued so injuriously to enhance the value of supplies drawn from other sources, as to limit the consumption, and to place large numbers of workpeople out of employ. It is COO ridge tly hoped that the prospects for these classes during the present wiater are far more favourable than was their heavy experience during the past ; the number employed in the manufac ture of cotton is greater than then ; and for those wanting such employ, other occupations have in many instances been supplied. The great resources of Great Britain have been exhibited in the extent to which she has been able to draw supplies to meet the absence of American cotton, and mainly from her own territones, or from countries of hitherto secondary import►nce as placers of growth. From India and from Egypt the imports have been in large ex cess of any previous year ; and from Chins, a country hitherto drawing her own supplies largely from the ports of India, about AlO,OOO bales have been received. The past year opened heavily, the Bank rate of discount being raised from 3to 5 per cent. in the course of January. At this JUDO Mr. Lincoln's celebrated ennancipatioo proclama tion declared the resolute perseverance with which his policy would be maintained ; in the same spirit this policy has been since pursued, the blockade being maintained with all practicable rigour ; and this fatal civil war is still prosecuted with alternate success, any termination appearing remote. As the year advanced the shipments of goods, chiefly to the East were on such a scale as to clear away the large stocks which had accumulated in the hands of producers ; and although the value of cotton became high beyood all experience, yet their production was largely maintained, prices rising in fair woportion to their coat The Custom house returns disclose the remarkable fact that under all disadvantages the exports have in value exceeded those of any previous year. With few exceptions, prices de elised till about the 6th March, Amencau then being 3d. per lb., Brazilian and Egyptian sd. per lb., whilst East India were only 2.41. per lb. below the rates current en Ist Jan. ; the subsequent variations were slight until August, when a continuous and rapid rise took place, till at the dose of October American had advanced Bd. per lb., Brazil and Egyptian 9d. per lb., and East India lid, per lb. ; then the large shipments of bullion compelled an advance in the Bank rate from 4to 6 per cent., and in December from 6 to 8 percent ; the rate was reduced from Bto 7 per cent. on the 24th December, and this rate has since been main tained. This stringency in the money market, accom panied by some floating rumours of approaching peace, to which the spirit of the messages then communicated to the Northern and Southern Congresses appeared to give an absolute contradiction, tended to limit the demand, and prices irregularly declined from Id. to 3.1. per lb. The close of the year finds the quotations of American, Brazil, and Egyptian generally from Id. to id. per lb., and those of East India generally from 4d. to 6.1. per lb. higher than at the close of 1862. A charge has been made, and powerfully advocated, that the present high value of money, and of cotton, are consequences of undue speculative action. This is not true. The effect of large investments made in cotton, in port or "to arrive," has been, by facilitating shipments form all quieten, to make this port the greatcatton mart of Europe ; and to secure to British consumers a larger sup ply than under any other circumstances they could hove had. A less liberal import would have occasioned yet higher rates, infinitely to the detriment of the trade, mod would have increased the payments of bullion in some pro portion to the reduced quantity of manufactures available for shipment. STOCK AND SUPPLY. —The continuance of the blockade compels the trade to look to other sources than the United States for its supply ; and so long as the consumption shall be controlled by high prime, as it has been durio; the whole of 1863. a supply proportioned to its limited wants may be drawn from the many sources now °pee to its growth.

This rate, reduced only one week ago from 8 per cent., will not be maintained ; ',either has its pressure bees as great as on many previous occasion'', the necessity which occasioned it being generally acknowledged. The high prices of cotton have induced the utmost caution on the part of consumers ; and their production of manu factures is limited to the present or portusity of sale. Stocks of goods are unusually small ; proviaions are cheap and abun dant ; and the general trade of the country has rarely been on a sounder basis, or more generally remunerative. The commercial treaties established between this country and France, as well as with other continental nations, have pro moted valuable trade in those directions, and which promise great extension and mutual advantage. Political questions of anxious interest have arisen on the 000ticent of Europe ; but they all admit of, and will probably soon obtain, • peaceful solution.—(From the Circular of Messrs. Marriott, Liverpool.) THE DENECRATION AT TOTTENHAM COCET-ROAD CHAPEL BURIAL-GROCND.--The Home Secretary, Sir George Grey, has addressed a letter to the parochial authorities of St. Pancras upon the subject of the recent alleged desecration of the dead in the burial-ground attached to Whitfield's Chapel. Tottenham Court road. based upon the report recently made to him by Mr. Grainger, one of the government medical inspectors, upon thet subject. The letter, which is dated from Whitehall, December 24, is in reply to a letter from the vestry, through their clerk, calling the attention of the Home Secretary to the proceed inp of certain persons in digging up the burial-ground in question, and Mares that it appears to him, from a report he has received from an inspector of burial-grenade, that the works directed to be done in this burial-ground by the order of her Majesty in COUlleil of the 11th January, 1859, had not been performed. That in accordance with the intent of inch order he proposed now to issue a further order under the provisions of the 22nd Vic., cap. 1, sec. 1, but before issuing such order. he desired to be informed whether the authorities of the perish of St. Panora were willing to un dertake. in connexion with the surface of tM burial grimed, and the maintenance of the growing vegetation, that all time parte of the said burial ground which had been ex• seated should be covered with a layer of fresh earth of the thickoess of 18 inches at least, under the superintendence of the medical officer of health of the parish.

A noticeable feature in the leather trade during the year just closed is the =oat entire absence from it of excitement and fluctuation. There have not been wanting, indeed, periods of considerable animatioo ; eine cully at the commencement of the year, and occasionally during the summer months. They have, however, been the exception ; and while it cannot be denied that a fair amount of business has been done, it has been generally felt that monotony has been the prevailing characteristic. Another feature iu the condition of the trade is the state of equilibrium which haa been generally maintained be tween supply and demand. The sales effected hare been rather below than above theaverage ; and so, for the moat part, have been the stocks in factors' warehouses. lf, on the one hand, consignments have seldom fallen below the requirements of purchasers, they have, on the other, rarely exceeded them. Since I s6O excessive production has ceased. the unhealthy stimulus to it which previously existed having from that memorable time entirely disappeared. The ten dency is now in the opposite direction. Caution on the part of manufacturers has beau carried quite as far perhaps as it would be wise to carry it. We are no advocates for reckless speculation, but the reverse. As, however, there now appears to be a fair prospect of at least a well sustained and even an animated demand for our staple, we feel at liberty to give encouragement to a somewhat more extended production than has of late been the rule. The struggle between the Northern and Southern States of America having continued throughout the year, He effects on trade in general, of course including our own branch of it, still exist; but these effects, as during the preceding year, have been felt the less, partly because the demands for the supply of the American armies have been greater than the home productions of the States have been able to meet, and partly in consequence of an improved trade with France and other parts of the world. The state of com mercial affairs generally in this country, as evinced in the recent revenue and other government returns, is highly satisfactory. The means of purchas ing the necessaries of life supplied by a sin gularly abundant harvest are gradually finding their way into the heeds of the people. The exigencies of the cotton &striae, although not entirely removed, have been relieved to a large extent by increased exports of cotton from India and other countries; and we are assured by those who are guided by the latest and fullest informa tion on the subject, that they calculate with entire con fidence on a gradual augmentation of the present amount of supply. It is true that large amounts of gold leave the country to pay for the raw material which, when sent from the Southern States, was paid for in manufactured goods ; and that this fact has largely operated to induce the Bank of England to raise the rate of discount to its present high figure ; but it should be boron in mind that an improved state of trade with the East, which will undoubtedly spring up, will gradually lessen the difficulty. Our government, moreover, regulating its policy by the welbarcertaiued wishes of the nation, is doing its best to prevent our becoming embroiled either iu American or Continental differences. Everything, therefore, looks hope ful • and soi there is nothing of a special character to pre vent our own branch of trade tram sharing in the general prosperity, in our opinion manufacturers would be quite sale in conducting their operations on a more extended scale. MARKETS. COTTON GOODS.-11ANcmurran. JAN. 2.—There is not much to say of the market this week, because the holidays have interfered very much with business. On Tuesday there was a rather better feeling, and more busi ness in both yarns and :loth, owing to the easier state of the money market; but things remained flat till Thursday, when the Liverpool cotton market showed a reaction owing to the excess over previous estimate* turning out much lees than was expected. There were only 18,000 bales in excess, and the amount having been generally discounted at 10000), many people were taken by surprise.

IttamisnztAx, JAN. ha% been to s great extent suspended the manufactories of this town during the past week ; it is customary for such to be the case the week after Chnettnas ; it affords time for stock. taking and repairs of machinery ; and the workpeople are glad of a holiday. especially as the bulk of them have lin is well employed of late, and ID the receipt of good wage.. Next week business will be resumed, and io all the prim pal branchee there are eufficiert orders in hand to keep the manufacturers hoing untalench time as the factors' travell,i. again resume their journeys, and the orders on account s the home trade again come in. The lest quarter was a very successful one for manufacturers here generally ; their re. turns were very large, and trade was so stead . , that .it was very profitably dune. In a re. of the trade of the town during the past year, the Birmangkain Journal of to-day has the following t.s, trade of this town sad of the district was upon the wised e steady throughout the year, and affords but little scope is I remark in consequence. In the month of January noise degree of quietude prevailed, but this disappeared .0 February, and in the first quarter a good business was d sm. In April and May there were agliu complaints of a want of animation; ID June a favourable reaction took place, and no retrograde movement was again experienced ; on the contrary, there was a gradual and contiuuous improver:ant up to the second or third week in the last quarter. when business became decidedly more active than st has been for many years, and in that condition it remained up to the close, manufacturers havens so many orders in band that business has been ales ady resumed, and will be generally at a much earlier perad than is usual The *ear's trading has also been favourable in other respects ; there has been a freedom from fluctua tion. which must alwess tell in favour of the manufacturer ; and the price of metal has been subject to lees frequent change than in some former years. It is aeatisfactory dication, too, that notwithstanding the large amount of business which has been done, and the power of produc. turn is constantly OD the increase, manufacturers' stocks in their warehouses are as *mull as was ever knows. In the gun trade a great reverse has undoubtedly been ex perienced. It is not necessary here to touch upon the causes which have brought about soddenly a revulsion from a state of almost unparalleled prosperity to one of extreme &preen= ; the cessation of the Amnions demand was no doubt the immediate GODS, hut there have been circumstances at work for many years having a direct ten decry to bring about that which hes taken place, and in all probability a Wog time will elapses before this important breech of our manufactures is again in a sound and healthy condition. In the buthou trade, and some other of the old 'staples,' at one time of great importance in munition with the trade of the town, some degree of slackness war sow and then experienced, but in none of the modem trades which provide employment for a large portion of our skill and industry has anything of the kind pre vailed. Labour has been in incessant demand, and skilled industry has participated in the increased trade, the earnings of our artisans having been greater than was before known. The failures directly affect , lug the trade of this town have been few and incoesiderable in amount ; and other circumstances have contributed to make the result of the trading of the past year in every respect satisfactory." In the South Staffordshire and East Worcestershire district trade is in a very healthy state, and labour is every department fully employed. It was stated in the Doily News on Friday that the thin-coal masters on the Wolverhampton aide agreed to advance the wages of the colliers 3d. per day; this move has been followed by the thick-coal masters in the Dudley district, who at a meeting held in that town yesterday resolved to advance the wages of the men 6d. per day, to commence from the 16th inst. The price of coal to be raised 6d. and Is. per ton. VESSELS SPOKEN WITH. Brrlag, fro!, !Calcutta fur Loudon 27 days, Oct. 12, lat 21.2 Z S. ion 7.1 . 6.15 _ Bremen Si;, bound East, Dec. 23.

A VLSARL CARRIED OVER NIAGARA FAL/S.—An obliging correepor dent at Chinpawa sends ua an account of a melancholy occurrence which took place on the Niagara River on Monday last, which resulted in the death of one man by being carried over the Fall, and caused imminent peril to five others, as well at the hies of a small vessel. About eleven o'clock in the morning the steamer A. D. Griffin. of Buffalo, reached that port, baring in tow two sours. the Abby and the A. Murray, of Port Robinson. The captain of the steamer, not knowing the depth of water, kept too far into the river with not sufficient steam to keep headway on the scow,. One of the latter, the A. Murray. striking agniust the spike at the entrance of the harbour, swung around with the current almost into the jaws cf the mighty cataract. The captain and four men who were on board, seeing the helpless position into which the vessel had got end the great peril with which they were threatened—being ' within less than five minutes' dietetical of the great fall leaped from the vessel and boldly ',truck for shore. Four of them, the captain included, succeeded by great exertions io maintaining themselves above the surface; but, ssd to relate, the fifth sank amid the laming and boiling waters, and was carried over the cataract. In the meantime a bwit, manned by two brave mm, shot out from the mouth of Welland River to the assistance of the helpless beings in the scow. The oarsmen, Mune. F. 1A131:1112, jun.. and George Morns, pulled boldly and swiftly out, rescued the men from their perilous position, and succeeded in reaching the shore just above the first rapid. Ooti minute more and they would have been carried over the Falls to the great gull below. Too much praise cannot be given to the men by whose premium of mind and courage four human beior were thus rescued from certain destruction. The 'WOW glided along the stream till it reached a rock almost on the brink of the cataract. where its course was etopped, and where it will probably remain till broken up by the ice in the spring. —Toronto Leader, Dec.l6.
