STATE OF TRADE AND MANUFACTURES IN SCOTLAND. [From the Glasgow Chronicle" The Commissioners of simply of this county, at their meeting at Lanark, on Monday last, took into consideration and adopted a resolution respecting the distressed state of the manufacturing po pulation. They humanely and judiciously recommend to the 31n. gistrurs of boroughs, and the different parishes and gentlemen within the county, to endeavour to find work for the unemployed, very imperil prelerring this mode of relief to the gratuitous dis. tribution of money. We venture to remind our. .ITroper.Ward friends of the deplo. Table condition of some of the roads in the parish .4 besmslitsprow. ‘Ve last year noticed the mad from Kirkmuirhill to Stonebyres, as lucre resembling the best of a brook than o way whereon horses might travel. The mail from Larkhall to Nethan.foot is equally bad. Near Lenerk again, the road to Clydee .holm Green, b Patrick's Well, is sadly out of repair, as is also that from Lanark to Loekhart.hridge. We are sure that a great many of the unem. ployell We/Veer, might find work on these roads. The l'onimittee in this city appointed for the relief of the wen• vers., continue to employ at breaking stones all who apply for work. Part of the men are occasionally idle far want of stones; but ex. retieneed quarrymen have been collected from all parts of the country. Ten gitarryera were sufficient at first, but there are now above forty employed, and no more can get working on the rock. At the rommencerneut of the business. the men were allowed 64. a day, and In. 9d. for the cubic yard of stones; but it was discovered that some indolent fellows were in the practice of coming in the morning for a short time, and going off till the evening, when they returned far the sixpence. To prevent this imposition, and reward diligence and attention. the Committee judiciously added 9d. to the rate per yard of breaking stones. The men have now 2s. Bd. for the yard, which is 9,1. above the price usually paid. A number or boxes hare been made for measuring the stones, which hold half-a. yard, and the workman is paid as the box is finished. Some men work only a day or two, and go asly. Those who have remained since the commencement have now got over the difficulties of the work. Their hands have got hard ; they can use the hammer with greater dexterity and effect, and less fatigue to themselves ; and as they are now beginning to discover the grain of the stone, and the best way to lay st, they do more work, and the employment is daily lets irksome. Some of them now earn Is. Lid., but the average wages run fro o ten pence to one shilling and three pence a.clay. In con sequence of this, the 3lngistratee have thought tt necessary to give additional support to those who have families. Ott Tuesday the Magistrates* Committee met in Hutcheson's Hospital. and sent for a few of the most intelligent of the wearers, in order to consult upon the best mode of relieving the families of the moat distressed of those employed in the quarry. After some consultation, it was agreed that schedules should be issued to the Committees of the various districts., to be tilled up by them, and stating the number of children belonging to the persons to whom they should be given, weedier with the length of time they had been out of employment. The objectof this inquiry is to give relief to the families of the worker's. without making any distinction in the prices given to those in the clattery. The poor men deserve praise for the patience and fortitude which they have shown ; and in the quarry they have be. lured in the most exemplary manner. Nothing can be more judicious thin giving employment at breaking stones. They tan be stowed in any plate, they suffer nothing by lying and be i• g constantly in demand for repairing roads, they at. sure of a market. . . At a meeting of weavers' delegates on Saturday timing. a per. sun from Springburn mentioned two distressing eases in that ail hite. One of them was a weaver's wife, who had just been d.eltvered of a child. and who had no food whatever in the house, r...r fuel to make It ready, even if t'te had it. The other was that in a weaver, wife, and three children. who For two days had no thing to subsist upon but a pound of °stoical. and were frequently lu a worse situation. A gentleman overhearing two men to the street, who had been at the meeting, talking of the above cues, ant► having inquired minutely into dhem. he sent out two men with live shillings to relieve each family. The name of the benevolent gentleman is not known, but it will be satisfactory to him to know that he has relieved two cases of urgent distress. and that his ex. ample may stimulate others to exercise their humanity in a similar way. - - The folly and pletumption of the combined cotton spinneret have cow reached a begin which is deeply to be deplored, and that, too, chiefly on &MOW' of the infatuated individuals themselves, and their families. It was formerly mentioned that, in the present dia. ' tressed state of trade, the proprietors of a number of the cotton works in town had came to the resolution of making a small redur ttou of the wages. The best-behaved and most intelligent, or in other words, nine-tenths of the workmen, were willing to submit to the proposed rethfction, hut the foolish leaders of the combine. that took the alarm—the usual system of threats and annoyance was adopted, and the result has been that the well.disposed part Lave been completely overawed and controlled. and six works are already stopt, or will be shut up by Saturday. The Glasgow spin ners were imperiously called on to reduce the prices, in order to equalise the business. Most of the works in Renfrewshire pay 3id., while in Glasgow they pay Rd. and Id. on the shilling ; anti such Sc- the powers of the combination, that in Bridgeton the strong. hold and focus of the confederacy. the works are compelled to pay • farthing more than is paid to most of the cotton works in the Gorbals. Working only six hours a day, the spinners earn Iris. sad Ilia. a week. In the present demented state of trade, when the distress is wider spread, deeper and more severely felt, than it was In any of the artuations that occurred during the war, these men, who spurn the abatement of one-eighth from such wages, must either he lamentably intermitted, or be c udident of ample means of stappoet, altogether beyond the knowledge or comprehension of people unconnected with their society. The spinners ht.ve been ea short hours since the end of January, and must be greatly re. doorel in their circumstances • and besides, they cannot now expect tole so long supported in idleness u they were at their last strike. Many of the shopkeepers who maintained them on credit at that time were ruined, and most of the respectable dealers have declared that they will nut tryst them a single shilling after they cease gimle t:ie. The ruinous efticts of the combination to the men themselves become the more obvious, when it is considered that most of the proprietors have such large stocks of yarn on hand, that they are glad atilt present opportunity of shutting their works till trade revive,. Those who wish to carry or; will find hundreds of unem ployed weavers. who will eagerly embrace an opportunity of learn. erg • business which is so much better paid than their own. The jodicioas plans taken by the proprieton of the cotton works In Belfast are beginning to awaken the combined cotton spinners to thecensequences of their own imprudent conduct. Determined to lane the lawful management of their works, and to have a power of discriminating in the choice of their weaker", the proprietors her tak in such measure• as ore likely to rid them, once for all, of the ruinous control of the combination. The work, are rapidly fining with new bands. In a large cotton work, where about seventy spinners were employed, only six of the old hands have been allotted to return to their work. The new hands are engaged acid boupd by a regular indenture to serve for three years. They get half the price the that year, their prices are to be progressively sdvanced, and they are to have full price at the end of their en gagement. Wearers or other workmen, who had previously been evinces. are allowed fun price. Mr. Wilson - erects/glen. with his usual spirit and decision, has resolved to elreet a reduction in the pries of hts cools. On Monday he intimated to his colliers the he intended to lower his coals to the public tate shilling a earl, sad to make such a reduction in their wages as would slow them firm shillings when they earned fivt "billing. a day. Ile gave them twenty-four hours to consider of his proposition. and ordered those who were determined not to sub mit. to bring up their implements. so Iliac he might know them, ss.d Ire stated at the same lime that they must leave their houses in twenty.tour hours after they drone-6 work. A number of the .poriog and inconsiderate have turned out. but the old, the well disposed, and moot intelligent part. here wisely submitted to Mr. Wilson's terms. Those who foolishly refused to comply, were re gularly warned to lease their houses yeeterday. file. Willie° is Otswit.ined to fill the places of the combined with weaver., mil Mr. Ronald, smith; at Pullockshaws, has received orders to make a number of wedges, pick.. and other imnlements for the new hands. bast week, the members of the '" %%wog Trade' Enendly So ciety at Govern, in defiance of every prudential consideration, mortgaged the funds of the society fur tire support of the coal. bitted. The "Ohl Trade" were requested to do so also ; but they bad more pod sense than comply. DISTRESS IN rmsLEy. PAIS! FY. MAT 3.

It is impossible to ascertain the degree of suffering which is at pc-rent experienced be our industrious but unemployed opera tiv,fa ; but. we know that the direness prevails to an unexampl. d ex tent. A great deal has been done, and is still Ening. by the hand of benevolence, to grant relief, but will we know that the relief afforded is far from being adequate to meet the prevailing distress. Encouragement is held out to those who can give employment, by /Mina in the fields, to thane who are able, and a few hundreds are employed in this way in the vicinity of the town; but we have deeply to ►egret that toe public benevolence cannot be carried to a greater extent in this manner, a. great numbers are still wandering •blot our streets, anti In the outeklete, in an entire state of idleness, enff-ring under severe orienting's*. and not knowing what to mike al themselves. To men of industrious habits such a condition most be extreme) y painful, and it is the laudable wish of such per. sons to engage in any kind of labou► which offers, as it is with rot reluctance that they ran prevail upon 'themselves to salt the smell mximiary relief that can only be afforded them. We under.

A considerable number or perilous belong log to our riaier Island hare gone home, and many more are ready to•falk.w. amid hare received small sums to enable them to cross the .hannel. Ruch it the decay in the resources of the combined colliers, that tirt week the pittance doled out to those lately In Mr. Dunlop'n employ. was only four shilling. each man, with which to maintain l i z i , f ami ly. This week the allowance is expected to he worse. This Is it sad difference from earning six shillings a day. At Clyde It .works the new hands have, at their own request, been put on t n. i4e.work, in preference :o receiving t:te day's wages or 2s. 4d.; d they are already earning from three to tire shillii4o a-day. new are now fifty unassociated colliers in the pits; so that the new h melt have abundance of teachers. The Olen, Brandywine, * Hutchison. Carmyle, Hamilton Farm, and Camlachie pits, are mi in full operation is the most promising mataer with the new V•.uJhr colliers. The guard is now transferred to the centre of Tollcross, in order to protect the peaceful workmen who are to occupy the vacant houses from being intimidated by the combined. All the houses at the works and the road leading to them are fully in habited. The judicious measures taken by the gentlemen at Polloekshaws, for the relief of those in distress, have fully answered their ex pectation. Last week there was only I Is. lid. required for cases of emergency, and those who could not take out-door labour, The progressive improvement of our manufactures has often ex cited our notice, anti called forth the necessary eulogiums. Amidst these distressful times, it is pleasing to know that any branch of our trade is likely to prevail among us. In the spring of 11124. a novel and very pretty species of work (of Chinese invention) was first introduced into this part of the country. It consists wholly of silk, both the fabric and ornament. and as the nianufacture has been mostly confined to squares, they have generally been denominated Canton crape embroidered shawls. In the neighbourhood of Pais ley, under the euperintendance of an agent, a skilful and spirited manufacturer of that town has brought these articles to a degree of perfection which surpasses any thing of the kind that has yet been attempted. Some of these recently made have come under our in spection, which we esteem as of excellent quality. We admire the superiority of the fabric, as well as the dexterity displayed in needle-work, together with the taste and skill in the management of the patterns. These shawls can be made of all colours, are ex tremely showy, and exhibit a very grand appearance. The price, we learn. is extremely moderate, considering the value of the ma terial and expenses of manufacture. LAW NOTICES. COURT OF CHANCERY. VIZ LORD C•ANCULLOR TM/ DAY, AT TER.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, M 6. BENNETT t•. RIDLER. This was an action of warranty of a horse, which was sold by the defendant to the plaintiff on a Sunday, and it was objected that the contract was void by the statute 29 Car. 2., which prohibits persons from carrying nn their trades, or pursuing their worldly callings, on the Sabbath. The case was argued on a former day, and the Court baying taken time to consider the point, Mr. Justice BATLEY now delivered the opinion of the Court to be. that the contract was void, and that the statute applied to cases where the party carried on his husinrs*, or pursued his worldly calling, either publicly or privately. This decision was not incon sistent with former cases, because here the plaintiff was aware that the defendant was trading as a horse-dealer. The rule, therefore, for setting aside the verdict for the plaintiff and granting a new trial, must be absolute. Rule made absolute. THE KING V. HAYTHORNE ; THE ►ING V. OOLDNEY AND A HOT H F R. These were rules calling upon the Mayor and Sheriff's of Bristol. respectively, to shew cause why quo warrant° informations should not he filed, calling upon them to shew by what authority they held their several offices. The question was, whether the right of elect ing these officers was in the Mayer, Burgesses, and Commonalty at large, or in the Mayor and Common Council of the city, u a select body. After hearing the A fterney.General, Mr. Smrlett, Mr. Taunton, Mr. Ludlow, and Mr. 0.

The COURT, adverting to the terms of the different charters bearing upon the subject, and the usage winch had obtained In the city, were clearly of opinion that the right of election was in the Mayor and Common Council, as a select body, and not in the Mayor and Commonalty at large.; and therefore discharged the Rules.

(From the Hampshire Tekgraph.l His Majesty's yacht, the Herald, on her arrival from Malta (which it daily expected), will be fitted to attend upon his Grace the Duke of Devonshire, during his visit at St. Petersburgh, on the occasion of his Imperial Majesty's Coro-anon. Capt. A. W. ,less. Clifford, C.D. will take the command of the Herald for this special service. The Noble Duke and his retinue will proceed to St. Petersburgh in the Gloucester, 74, which bat been fitted for the occasion. The Pandora, 111, Captain Jervoise, for the East Indies, put into Port Prays, St. Jago, to get water, on the fith of January. Being heavily laden with stores, she made rather a bad passage. On the 14th of December the ship was caught in a white squall, which laid her down and filled the waist with water, when the Gunner, with great presence of mind, cut away the fore-sheet, and let fly the main and mizen topsail sheets, and she righted. On the 19th of December, in lat. 46, M, N. and long. fl. 47. %V she ex perienced a dreadful gale from S.W. From three till eleven p. in. their fate was doubtful ; but on cutting away two anchors from the tows, and throwing two guns overboard, the ship was relieved.

N. for a new method of working the sails of vessels, by which manual labour is lessened to its " minimum." Thie is effected by causing the masts to revolve on pivots, or, for greater security, on circular sweeps. The masts may be similar to ordinary masts, with standing rigging, tut it is preferred to construct them with three. four, or five poles, forming the outlines of a pyramid ; their leaver ends being secured to cross-trees, which become the base of the pyramidal mast, and their upper ends united at top to a block of woad, composing either a cap, to receive a top-mut, or a mast head, according to the n lure of the rig—all the yards and sails are affixed within the pyramidal mast, and revolve with it. By this arrangement, all the standing rigging, and almost the whole of the working gear of a square rigged vessel are dispensed with, and it is in the power of the man at the helm alone, without any aid whatever, to put the vessel about. In fore and aft rigged ves sels the disagreeable and oftentimes dangerous expedient of jibing the sail, is Qispensed with ; as, for instance, in wearing a cutter, the bowsprit would be brought round over the stern. A 'met of live tons burtheo, luggvr rigged on this plan, will be at Ports mouth, in a few days, from Salcombe„ and will pass up the Arundel rarest to London, by which the invention will be fully exemplified ; her logs will not require dipping, and the sails are reduced by reef bands attached to the foot of each. The plan is well adapted to casting and other weak-handed vessels navigating in intricate channels. PLYAIOUTII, MAY 4.
