GLOBE.—Aware of its utter destitution of fact, and conscious that without facts on which to base the semblance of argument, all attempts to make out a case in favour of monopoly must utterly fail, the Post has adopted the common practice of persons who either cannot or will not reason—viz., that of calling names. " We called," says our discreet Contemporary—al luding to his article of yesterday, in which that - and similar flowers of rhetoric were thickly strewed—" We called the writers of the Whig-Radical party diabo lical miscreants.' We adhere to this language." We find an apology for our assailant in the fury dis played throughout the entire article in which this lan guage is found. When that temporary madness is subdued, and reason resumes her seat, he will be more ashamed of the offence he has committed against propriety than we are offended by it. Notwith standing the care with which we guarded ourselves against the possibility of misconception, in the obser vations we introduced upon the utter incompetency of private benevolence to provide for the wants of the thousands of the operatives deprived wholly, or partially, of employment, and consequently of bread, we find our language misconstrued, its meaning per verted, and the motives which induced it assailed. We are accused of discouragin g the exercise of benevolence toward the suffering poor, because we observed that pri vate charity must fail to provide a sufficient fund to sup ply the wants of the abounding misery ! We are charged with telling "rate-payers to begrudge, and Poor-law guardians to stint, parochial aid" to the suffering masses, who must absolutely perish if not assisted from such sources. And why? Solely, because we put forth a proposition which the Post found itself unable to dis prove ; viz., that the " insane and selfish policy" of the Corn-laws—we use the terms which Sir James Graham employed to designate his opinion of their principle and operation—had wrought, was working, and must continue, so long as it is pursued, to work—incal culable injury to the trade and manufactures of the country. Is it not evident, beyond the power of successful disputation, that the distress of the labouring classes, produced by the fatal incubus which presses down the na tional industry, must increase, as population increases and trade declines ? Can it be controverted, that neither the private benevolence of the now wealthy, nor the assistance which the parish rates could afford, will keep pace with the claims of misery—while those sources themselves must in time become exhausted— dried up, as the monster-misery continued its march, gradually ,drawing within its vortex those who, in the first instance, contributed to stay its devastations ? _ _ STAN DARD.—The irresistible inference from the tables of the census is, that the manufacturing distress complained of has been much exaggerated—that, as far as domestic causes can have produced it, it is the effect of an imprudent, and almost dishonest, certainly an inhuman, competition on the part of master ma nufacturers, who have employed the machinery of the New Poor-law, too successfully, to force together multitudes of unhappy beings, to meet the occa sional demands of the market, and then to suffer them to starve as soon as the market has been sup plied. This is a state of affairs which would not be mended, but infinitely aggravated, by the repeal of the Corn-laws—that, by increasing vastly the dispro portion between the profits of agriculture and the profits of manufactures, would render much more easy the collection of such crowds, and widen to a great extent the field for gambling speculations. These plain truths have reached the people, for, as the Morning Chronicle ,complains, whimsically enough— " The political economy of the question was, perhaps, more distinctly understood by the great bulk at the working population fifteen and twenty years ago than it is now, even after the discussion of the lest four years, and notwithstanding the very great advance which has been made." Do not, good Morning Chronicle, say "notwith standing" " the very great advance which has been made," out rather "bccause of the great advance " which has been made in every department of knowledge. " The political economy" of 1816 was sheer ignorance, and as the people have become less ignorant they have rejected it; but the ignorance of the people, or that which our respected Contemporary calls such, is questionless an ill compliment to the paid lecturers, and a modest acknowledgment for the Chro nicle itself, which has written the amount of some portly folios to dispel it. In aid of such obstinate ignorance, as we suppose we must call it, we beg to direct attention to the extract which we have made from " The Budget," the work of a very distinguished, but plainly reformed political economist of the school of 1416. COURIER.—The whole scope and object of she calumnies, the exaggerations, the loose logic, and false reasoning of Whig-Radical journalism, tend to this— that nothing effectual can be done; that nothing ought to be attempted, either in the way of alleviating or remedying the evils incidental to our present condition, without being preceded or accompanied by a repeal of the Corn-laws—the principle of which they have discovered to be iniquitous, anti-Christian, and in compatible with the well-being of a commercial and trading nation. Now, we say, taking all these asser tions as proven, they make it out a case against the late Cabinet, and the whole body of its supporters, sufficient to damn it to eternal infamy. The present system of Corn-laws, if we recollect rightly, has been in opera tion only since 1828 ; the Whigs were in possession of power during the whole of this period, except the first two years ; and with them, during a large portion of that interval—to propose was to carry—this odious, iniquitous, plundering, oppressive, anti-Christian law was in full force—and yet no voice was raised for its abatement or abolition during that dreary period— no hand was uplifted to strike down the fell monster, by which British energy was being paralyzed, and British enterprise repressed. There it stood on the statute book, unquestioned and unchallenged, rob bing the hungry and the destitute of more than half their parched crusts, transferring a large share of he earnings of the labourer and the mechanic into the pockets of monopolizing landowners, a monument of injustice and rapacity, supported, defended, and main tained by the enlightened, the wise, and the patriotic Whigs. Surely, if the protection British agriculture has enjoyed under the present law be of that hideous and cruel nature here represented—if the effect of that lav: has been to sap up the foundations of commerce, to deluge the nation with pauperism, to ruin trade and starve the people—the Ministry which allowed it to continue for a period of ten years, in full and vigorous malignity, unchecked and uncontrolled, deserves the most signal punishment ever evoked by an abuse and perversion of power. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF SATURDAY. TIMES.—The funds were further depressed to-day— not, however, from the scarcity of money, which was much more plentiful than yesterday, and could be had at the reduced rate of 5 to 54 per cent., but from the slackness of business, and the preponderance of sellers over buyers, which at all times produces heaviness in the markets, and might be reasonably expected to do so now, from the unsettled aspect of money affairs in general. An unusual degree of anxiety exists in the money mar ket as to the measures, likely to be adopted by . the Bank at the period, now very near at hand, when it has liken the custom to afford some relief during the shutting for the dividends. This feeling arises principally, out of the Exchequer bill affair, and the apprehension that the Bank, participating in the distrust of the public at large, may re fuse to make temporary advances on deposits of Exche quer bills. The more common opinion is, that the Di rectors will refuse them, and that India bonds will alike be objected to, thus confining the accommodation solely to deposits of bills of exchange. Undoubtedly the lat ter may be regarded as the more legitimate banking se curity ; but setting that question aside for the present, and considering that Exchequer bills have been re ceived for years past as unexceptionable security for such advances, the Directors should weigh the conse quences very carefully before they place them under their interdict in the manner that is anticipated, since that step on their part would materially add to the distrust out of doors, and might paralyze the circulation of the security, which is the most im portant reliance of the Government on its occasional " ways and means." The present Administration, if they have adopted, as is believed, the views expressed by Lord Liverpool and Mr. Huskisson in 1826, cannot have a very friendly feeling towards the continuance of " exclusive privileges," which were then declared to be " out of fashion ;" and yet the time is close at hand when that very important question of the continuance of the charters of the Banks of England and Ireland must be forced upon the attention of Parliament. For these reasons, their immediate policy with regard to the " tem porary advances" can hardly be otherwise than concilia tory towards the existing heads of the Treasury depart ment. Hence we incline to disbelieve the current re ports on this subject, though they are circulated with very great confidence. Respecting the pressure for money which has existed for some days past, and which is one source of the anxiety above described, it appears to have been in some measure aggravated by a new regulation of the pay ments into the Bank by the collectors of the revenue, who have been heretofore allowed 28 days' grace for doing so, which is now reduced to a period of seven days only for the country circuit, while immediate pay ment is required of the home circuit. Hence very large sums, which were upon the market for general employ ment, are locked upin the Bank on occasions like the present when they are much wanted. It may be sup posed that, as the Bank employ at all times their avail able balances indiscounts, this ought to make no material difference to the merchant or banker who may be in want of accommodation ; but, not to mention that higher terms are always demanded for it at the Bank, there is always , ' more or less of reluctance to making known PRICE 5d to the Board of Directors the fact that certain par ties are in want of accommodation, and there are very many houses of undoubted credit who entertain this feel ing so strongly that they will submit to great inconve nience rather than ask for assistance in that quarter. It is not meant, of course, to offer an opion on the propriety of the measure by which the credits of the collectors of the revenue are curtailed, but merely to describe one of the causes which is now producing some tightness in the Money Market. But if there is no question of safety to interfere with it, business of this as of every other kind is better done by the private money dealer and discount broker than by a corporation, respecting which no reli ance can exist as to the discretion and secresy which is the essence of all such transactions. Our private letters from Paris mention the receipt of intelligence in that metropolis of the conclusion at Madrid of a treaty of commerce and navigation between this country and Spain. If the intelligence be true, we shall of course very shortly hear further particulars. POST.—lt was reported that a leading banking-house in the West-end of the town, finding itself enoumbered with a large amount of forged Exchequer bills, had com menced proceedings in Chanceryagattist a, Noble Viscount by whom an individual who obtained advances upon them was introduced. The express ground of proceeding has not been openly stated, but may, perhaps, if there be truth in the rumour, be easily euough inferred. We refrain in the present posture of affairs from giving names. Bonnet, the agent de change of the Paris Bourse, who was found drowned the other day in the' Seine, is dis covered to have drawn bills a few months since on Rapallo. It is possible he may not have had a guilty knowledge of his Exchequer bill transactions. It is imagined, indeed, that he took alarm ate he bare idea of being in any way identified with tile - mon in his situation. The King of the French is understood to have directed a diligent search to be made in order to ascertain if the Parisians are implicated in the fraud, and to what extent. CIIRONICLE.—The Unfunded Debt is quoted Is. higher, ExChequer bills leaving off at Bs. to 10s. prem. A circumstance has transpired to-day- connected with these securities which has attracted no small degree of interest, and which certainly does not by any means tend to impress the public with any higher idea of the manner of transacting business at the Exchequer-office. A gentleman went up with an Exchequer bill lately for 1001., dated so far back as the year 1825, signed by Lord Grenville, as Auditor-General, and asked money for it, when payment, we understand, was refused, on the grounds that the counterfoils had been destroyed ! This is not the way to restore public confidence in that class of Government securities. The loss of sixteen years' inte rest, besides premium, would of itself be a severe sacrifice to the holder; but the refusal of payment of the principal on the shallow and most improper plea that the servants of the Crown had destroyed the only test which they could rely upon to distinguish the authenticity of the document is so thoroughly injurious to the public credit, that we are most unwilling to believe that the facts of the ease are correctly known. We could easily suppose that the chief officers of the Exchequer bill department might evince caution at the first appearance of a bill so long past due as the one in question ; and that they would express some degree of surprise at its appearance, saying that they could not pay the amount without some inquiry. Lawyers will be able to tell whether the Statute of Limi tation would preclude the holder from payment. We do not pretend to give any opinion on that point, although we have reason to believe that in no case can an indivi dual set up that plea successfully against the Crown. HERALD.—There can be no wonder that an opinion should have been gaining ground for some considerable time past, which is now greatly strengthened by recent events, that either the Stock Exchange must be reformed and thrown open, or that another institution, under better guarantees for probity and morality, should be esta blished under the direct authority of Government and the Bank. The real origin of Stock Exchange frauds, or frauds arising out of stock speculations, may be traced and fairly ascribed to the close corporation system by which the public at large are excluded from the view of the transaction of their own business. From hence grow the prejudices universally entertained, with scarcely a dissentient voice in any class of the community, that the Stock Exchange is really no better than an intolerable nuisance. It is quite possible that on the trials of Rapello and his confederates, with the examinations and cross-exa minations of Beaumont Smith, such details will tran spire respecting the concoction and organisation of the Boulogne attempt at revolution in France, with more full particulars of the parties implicated and by whom got up, as may lead eventually to other proceedings against those concerned on the part of the French Government, either in the Courts here, or, which it might be feared is not possible, by extradition of the guilty parties for trial be fore the tribunals of Paris. There appears little question now that the whole was a stock specula tion conspiracy, the principal means for which were raised by fraudulent issues of Exchequer bills, and the flagitious profits of which were coolly as atrociously cal culated upon the excitement of civil war in France and the sanguinary sacrifice of thousands and tens of thou sands of lives. Guilty or not of Exchequer bill frauds, persons capable and proved guilty of such nefarious con spiracies and combinations as this of Boulogne imputed, and by one of the parties at least acknowledged, are, it will hardly be denied, deserving of much severer sentence than any to which by the laws they are now amenable. The failure of a large establishment in Liverpool en gaged in the manufacture of soap is reported to-day. The liabilities of the house are reported at 170,0001. MR. EGERTON SMITH. (From the Liverpool Mercury.) It is with feelings of grief, the poignancy of which none can conceive but those whose who have long and intimately known the deceased, that we have to announce the death of Mr. Egerton Smith, the founder, editor, and principal proprietor of the Liverpool Mercury. This melancholy event took place on Thursday night. Mr. Smith had been unwell for many months, but neither he nor his friends anticipated a fatal termination to his ill ness until within the last day or two. When he knew that his last hour was come, he met it with a cheerful ness, fortitude, and resignation, which must have arisen from a consciousness that he had spent a long life in doing, or attempting to do, good to all mankind,—that he had never wilfully injured any human being,—and that if it be indeed true religion to cheer the hearts of the widow and the fatherless,—to provide a home for the destitute, and ever to act upon the golden rule, "Do unto others as you would that they should do unto you," then the change must be for him a blessed one. No man that ever lived had better ground for such reflections ; and it must be some consolation to his friends, notwithstanding the magnitude of their be reavement, to know that the tears and blessings of thou sands will follow him to the grave. His universal phi lanthropy, extending even to the brute creation, has made his name known to the farthest corner of the world. As a patriot, husband, father, and friend, he has left no superior ; and we arc sure that all who read this hurried and imperfect notice, to whatever political party or reli gious creed they may belong, will sympathise, more or less, in the feelings with which it is penned, and admit that in Egerton Smith Liverpool has lost one of its best citizens, the poor a benefactor, and the cause of huma nity, freedom, and civilization, at home and abroad, one of its most zealous, most consistent, and most disinter ested champions. THE ALLEGED DISCOVERY OF VALUABLE JEWELS AT THE EXCHEQUER. Our readers will remember that a few weeks ago cer tain mysterious whisperings were current concerning an alleged discovery, at the Exchequer, of jewels to a very considerable amount--jewels, it was said, which had been empawned to meet the exigencies of the extravagant King Charles the Second, and had lain there so long that their existence had been . forgotten, and that their discovery was the result of accident—a bit o f good fortune—a sort of set-off against the defalcation s in Ex chequer bills. The matter was delicately alluded to i n some of the papers, but all seemed to lack i n f ormation on the interesting subject. One pap er did, however, venture to confirm the report , but to say that the matter had been exaggerated. Exaggerated, indeed, it was. In fact, the affair belief affair had,was what is vulgarly called a " mare's neat." however, existed in a high quarter that property to a large amount had lain by for a long period, It t he - value of which it would be desirable to ascertain that in the year 1757 a box containing jewe ' ls had appears that sent from the Exchequer-office to the Bank of England, en to be deposited in the Bullion -office ; and an order was . recently sent down to the Bank, to have the mysteri ous casket examined. A day was ' accordingly appointed, and the Governor of the Bank, Mr. Mashal, the . Chief Cashier, and several gentlemen Connected with the Government, assembled for the purpose of making an official inspection, and reporting upon the same to head quarters. They w ere , moreover, atten d e d b y seve raljewellers called in professionally to decide as to the " water " of the diam on d s , an d t h e va l ue o f t h e ot h e r gems it contained. The conclave assembled—the box was brought in ! But t o th e sur p r i se o f a ll it was no thing more than a lozenge-box tied with a red tape and scaled on the top. It was opened and found to contain a pair of diamond ear-rings, and a garnet brooch. A general laugh was excited by the appearance of the " ridicules mus," and one of the jewellers said he should be sorry to give forty pounds for its contents. _ muchThesc are the simple facts of the matter, e xcited merriment among those engaged in the 111VCSEIga t lon. --- Eighteen of the twenty-three lieutenancies in the 62d Regiment are for purchase, a circumstance un paralled in any other corps of infantry on the India es tablishment. The 62d is at Ilazrcbaugh, and, as there were fewer subalterns with the regiment last September than on any former occasion, and some of those sick, the duty came heavy upon five or six officers. Captains Astier and redder had applied for leave of absence to England, but have been refused until next year.—Lime rick Reporter.

" The editor has deserved well of his country and of the church of God for his present undertaking." " A very high meed of praise is due to the pious and bene volent editor for having, at the expense of a large sacrifice of money as well as of time, accomplished an undertaking to which hitherto only the exertions of an episcopal bench, and the ex penditure of national funds have been deemed adequate." " Sacred regard has been paid to the moulds of thought and expression which our venerable translators had used." " A multitude of the emendations are admirable, and while they bring out more fully the spirit of the original, they strikingly tend to elucidate the truths and facts of the sacred oracles." " T he editor has impaired no doctrine of the Gospel ; has ventured on no conjectural renderings ; and has done no vio• lence to the evangelical spirit of the inspired oracles. In not a few instances he has shed light on the sacred text by placing it in a clearer point of view ; while by better renderings he has removed many contradictions and indelicacies out of the way of the English reader."

The book, as has been already stated, is the result of very ample and daily increasing experience in a class of diseases, which, for some unaccountable reason, have been either altogether overlooked, or treated almost with indiffer ence, by the ordinary medical practitioner. The proverbial and well known rapacity of unqualified practitioners, who traffic on the health and credulity of patients, has been en couraged and aroused by this supineness, on the part of the regular surgeon. In order to obviate the pernicious effects sure to result from the practices of such pretenders, the authors hays fur a considerable time devoted themselves ex clusively to a certain class of diseases; of the necessity of se doing, they were further convinced by feeling that. tact in in vestigating the latent sources of many disease 3, which arise from certain secret praetices, can only be acquired by an ex clusive and undivided attention to this department of medical practice. The numberless instances daily occurring, whersin affections of the lungs, putting on all the outer appearances of consumption, which, however, when traced to their source, are found to result from certain baneful practices, fully proves that the principle of the division of labour, is nowhere more applicable than in medical practice. We feel no hesitation in saying that there is no member of society by whom the book will not be found useful, whether such person hold the relation of a Parent, a Preceptor, or a Clergyman. The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in conse quence of some disease, which, for want of careful investiga tion of its real cause, has been set down to the score of con sumption, will, on perusing this work, he astonished to find, that in nine-tenths of the cases of voting persons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary consumption, heart disease, tapes, ice., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth much more frequently than it is at all suspected. The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds (temporarily at least), the relation and responsibility of a parent, will, by perusing this work, be dir,cte4 and very much assisted in investigating and detecting the toe often con cealed practices so often introduced into schools, whereby the health and ultimately the lives of his pupils are sure to be com promised, unless the evil be arrested in proper time. lie will here find a clue to guide him through the intricate mazes of this moral labyrinth, and a standard whereby to judge, when delicacy of health should appear to attack any of his voung charges, what the real causes of such attack may be, and thins he will be enabled to check the evil in its incipient state. The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred character is at once concentrated the two-fold relation of parent and instructor, will ' here be directed as to the nature of those habits to which youth is addicted ; he will also be enabled to point out, the dis astrous consequences which are sure to follow from them if not relinquished.

A gentleman connected with the Horse Guards ac quainted us, so late as Wednesday last., with the fact that a great sensation was created there, on Wednesday morning, about one o'clock, in consequence of a com bustible ball having been thrown into the building with the intention of setting fire to it. But the aim of the incendiary not being well taken, it fell at the feet of a sentry on duty, who immediately communicated the circumstance to the authorities; and they are in pos session, as we are informed, of a portion of the de structive missile. But what makes this circumstance the more extraordinary is, that a similar combustible ball was thrown on the same morning at the bar racks behind the National Gallery, at Charing-cross. It was fortunately discovered in time to prevent the intention of the incendiary from taking effect. The authorities at the Horse Guards were occupied during the whole of Wednesday, in endeavouring to discover facts tending to elucidate this mysterious occurrence ; but with no success. The information was then conveyed to Colonel Rowan, of the Metropolitan Police, who is now engaged in investigating the circumstance ; and it is to be hoped that the perpetrators of the outrage will shortly be in the hands of justice. A great deal of secrecy is observed on the subject, in order that the ends of justice may not be frustrated ; and the impression that now prevails is that the fire at the Tower of London was not accidental, but may be traced to the same arch incendiary who endeavoured to destroy the Horse Guards and the Charine•-cross Barracks on the morning of Wed nesday last. Several persons have been examined, but as yet no light has been thrown upon the affair, which remains involved in the deepest mystery. But it is clearly to be seen that a design is entertained by some diabolical incendiaries to destroy the great public buildings of the metropolis. The soldier at the Horse Guards, at whose feet the com bustible ball fell, did not observe any person in the street by whom the missile appeared to have been thrown ; but in the alarm and confusion which so mysterious an oc currence may naturally be supposed to have created in his mind, it is possible that the incendiary escaped before he was looked after. There can be no doubt but that, had the ball taken effect, the Horse Guards would have been destroyed. The above information is derived from authority, upon which we have the firmest reliance.—Planet. This statement having been forwarded to us we caused immediate inquiries to be made ; our reporter proceeded to the chief office of the metropolitan po lice in Scotland-yard, and was informed that nothing whatever had been heard there on the subject ; and on expressing a wish to see Colonel Rowan, was told that the Colonel was not in town, and that his chief clerk had retired to rest. The Superintendent on duty was not to be seen. We next proceeded to the sta tion of the A division of police in Gardner's-lane, and oti inquiring of the Inspector whether he had heard anything of the circumstance, he replied in the negative, adding that if there had been any truth in it they must have heard something of it. The reporter next proceeded to the Horse-Guards, and finding the orderly-room closed, it being near midnight, he accosted the sentinel on duty, and on asking whether he had heard of any attempt to fire the Horse-Guards by a shell of a combustible na ture, his reply was that it was perfectly true, and that a similar ball was thrown into St. George's barracks the same morning, which had seriously wounded one of the men, who was in the hospital. The reporter then ob tained admission into the canteen, and the account as to the throwing of a shell inside the Horse Guards was con firmed by Mr. M'Gregor, who was in the yard at the mo ment the shell alighted, having gone out by mere ac cident. As near as he can recollect, it was about a quarter past twelve o'clock. The ball fhll between himself and the sentinel on duty nearly in front of the Canteen, and exploded with a terrific noise. The sound, Mr. l!d•Gregor says, was as loud as a cannon. He was completely stunned for a time, and "the sentinel," said Mr. M'Gregor, " being rather a raw soldier, flaw off like a shot." The alarm caused by the occurrence was very great, and Mrs. M‘Gregor and the inmates of the Canteen hastened to the spot. Some combustible materials were still burning, but of what nature they could not distinctly ascertain. There was, however, no clue to the perpetrator of the outrage, which is still involved in mystery. The sergeant on guard said they were in readiness, if the attempt was repeated. It would seem that they had received orders to be on the alert. PARTICULARS.) The above details of the attempt to set fire to the Horse Guards and Charing-cross Barracks, we regret to be obliged to confirm. Of the fact there exists no doubt, :and the act, in both cases so fortunately frus trated, is supposed to be the work of some wicked incendiary or demented enthusiast. Nothing has as yet, we believe, resulted from the in quiry which was immediately set on foot. The explosions,:both at the Horse Guards and the Barracks, were heard by many persons residing in their vicinity; and that at the latter place, from its loudness, excited considerable surprise and alarm in the minds of the residents of Leicester-square and the streets in the immediate neighbourhood, the barracks being contiguous to the south side of the square. FIRE at WOOLWICH DOCK-YARD. At half-past four on Saturday morning, a fire broke out at the manufactory for making the patent fuel for the steamers. It caused very considerable alarm, but was speedily subdued. We regret to add, that owing to an intense to ,, b , two men of the Royal Marines and a boy fell into the basin, and the boy was unfortunately drowned. An officer ran against a block of granite and severely hurt his face. (FURTHER PARTICULARS.) About half-past three :on Saturday morning, police constable 291 R, who was on duty at the western end of the dock-yard, adjoining Charlton Pier, disco vered flames issuing frem a wooden building in which Mr. Grant's patent fuel fir steam-boats was prepared. He instantly gave an alarm by springing his rattle, and in a very short time the utmost confusion prevailed. An express having been sent off to the police in the town, as well as to the garrison, the drums beat, bugles sounded, the fire-bells were rung, soldiers were seen marching from all quarters, and the alarm speedily spread throughout the town. Inspector Robinson, who was on duty at the Dock-yard, mustered his men, and proceeded, in company with a detachment of the 15th Foot, to the spot, taking one of the small Dock-yard engines along ivith him. Unfortunately the engine was in such bad repair, that it broke down upon the road. On arriving at the spot, the flames were bursting , from beneath the flue used to amalgamate the ingredients !of the patent fuel, threatening from the combustible nature of the material to demolish a brick building, and an extensive smithy adjoining. A small engine, known as the West Pump Engine, was brought up and got to work, but little good was done. Subsequently two en gines from the sappers and miners' barracks, one from the marines, and another from the artillery, were brought to bear upon the flaming building, a good supply of water being obtained from the basin. By dint of great exertions the smithy and engine-house were saved, but the building where the fire first broke out was burnt to the ground in less than an hour. As morning broke, a gang of 150 convicts were set to work, and before many hours had elapsed, all trace of the building or of the catastrophe was re moved. During the dense fog that prevailed, a boy be longing to a collier, lying off Woolwich, fell into the basin and was drowned. A seaman was also hurt. This is the second time that the building, in which the patent fuel is prepared, has been destroyed." STATE OF TRADE. (From the Leeds Mercury.) ENG L isa WOOL MARKET, LEEDS, Nov. 19.—Sales this week have been to supply the immediate require ments of the manufacturers, which, owing to the season, are small. Ia combing wool, low and middle wethers still go off more readily, and at better proportionate prices than the finer qualities. Prices may be quoted about the same as last. TRADE OF LEEDS.—The very severe weather during this week has rather improved the demand for winter goods, and in fine and middle qualities for the American market there has been about the same amount of business done as for the last week or two. Prices are without any alteration, notwithstanding the advance which has taken place at the late sales in the price of Colonial wool . _ Very few buyers have been in the market this week , a n in consequence there has been very little business do n ed in the warehouses. • s much HUDDERSFIELD MARKET.

BRADF NW MARKET, NOV. 18.—We cannot report any b e tter doings in manufactured goods, the shipping seaso n being now over , and nothing but small lots required for assorting -up the merchants' stock. We are glad to find the manufacturers acting cautio u sl y, and nothing like the ,usual quantity of goods making as we have known at this season, which we trust will have the effect of keeping prices steady. The demand for yarns has not in any way improved, and the spinners complain loudly of the depressed condition, and see nit immediate hope of being' able to extend the hours oT working, which are at present of a very limited cha racter, being daylight only. Prices without alteration. There is a little more activity as regards the demand for wether wool, but prices remain unimproved. The supply of warp hogs is abundant, in consequence of the substi tution of cotton, and as the introduction of the latter is extending, we see no prospect of any advance in the , price of hogs.—Leeds Mercury.
