The funds are high, (ming to the total stagnation of trade, and Consols were done this day at 04, but closed at 93 to The Bank broker made his usual operation of 10,000/., and a strong manifestation was evident for a further rise, but the advance does not suit the jobbers, and they are doing their utmost to obstruct a further imp'rovement. It remains to be seen whether they can carry out-their purpose. TIMES.—By accounts just received, it appears that a new tariff has been promulgated by the Sar di4ian Government of the most favourable character as regards British commerce, and possessing at the same time a very liberal character as regards other nations. The reductions on the old duties are said to vary from 20 to 50 per cent:, but the full particu lars are not yet made known. The decree is dated the 24th of Septemlier, and will come intomperation on the Ist of January, From the intelligence recently received by the merchants connected with the Unit e d States, as well as from such commercial surveys as the one noticed under this head the other day, it may be gathered that the American tariff has failed, not only as a pro tective, but also as a financial measure ; for it is un derstood that foreign produce is imported at so high a price, that purchasers cannot be found, and there fore it has to be re-exported; when a return of the duty is obtained. If this is the case, the expense of the Customs' establishment. must be nearly a total loss to the C v:,nment. .The Democratic Review, Ei • _ 101" 1314 4 52 4 thr arts that the want of a tariff has not been the cause of the depres sion of American trade, but that the difficulty has rather arisen from a great revolution not only in the manner of doing business, but in the direction of business itself. • AIk;ETING OF TIIE ANTI-CORN- FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF SATURDAY. GLOBE. -An extraordinary sensation has been created amongst the members of the legal profession by the publication of the new Orders in Chancery. It is a somewhattoo prevalent error, which the public is liable to fall into, that when the lawyers are heard to complain, there is reason for the general community to be satisfied. For this reason it often happens that when the legal profession arc crying out against an injustice in flicted on the public, they are thought to be cht mouringfbr their own nterest s. Grievances; there- , fore, which they have the best and ear liest Means of ascertaining, are left longer than they need be without a remedy. In the case of these new Chancery Orders it is an in disputable fact that the evils of the old system are aggravated rather than diminished; and in deed so monstrous and barefaced is the extortion sought to be practised by the useless multiplica tion of unnecessary fees, that the framers of the Orders may be said to have fairly overreached themselves. The new Chancery Orders cannot be y permitted to remain in force, for they dip into the pockets of suitors to an extent so frightful that it is really thought no honourable man can have the conscience to take the sums that the re cent regulations offer him. On the mere taxing of a bill of costs, there is such a shameful per centage allowed, that it would be ludicrous, were' it not for the serious inroad that must be made on the pocket of the suitor. The ouly-slarnitill that has been hitherto offered fbr these insane Orders .is- to be - met with in the Post of this morning; but our Contemporary freely admits that it is only in the monstrosity of the new re gulations that any excuse can be made for them. It is allowed that the only good they can do is to deter people from going into Chancery; but surely it would be better to close the Court at once, than leave it open for thepurpose of plunder ing the few who might be rash'as to venture into it. Surely all who go for redress to the Courts of Equity are not seized with an insane desire to litigate without good cause; and besides theie there are thousands who are born to a Chancery suit—becoming parties to it by the mere fact of having 'entered. into existence. The new Orders can have little effect in warning such suitors as these, but will be quite as effective in plundering infant parties as those who •go into Chancery with their eyes open. • We shall return to this subject, and point out sonic of the most oppres sive provisions of the first fruits of a Tory " Re form' of the Court of Chancery. STANDARD.—We • have copied from the TiMes of this morning a• valuable article upon the subject of commercial competition, which will be found to illustrate still more clearly the view which we yesterday suggested in relation to the United States tariff. We do not pretend to dispute that the threatened interference of our rivals in both hemiSpheres with the established course of trade—which is established only be cause it is naturalif-must be productive of much present inconvenience and loss. All such interference—whatever' deranges even for a moment the relations of commerce, has this effect ; and, indeed, we already feel it too Sensibly. But a very brief consideration will satisfy any thinking man that the evil must be but temporary, while the final result is sure to es tablish more firmly the ascendancy of the nation possessing the gr eater amount of capital, and the more advanced skill : even the temporary injury inflicted upon that nation will almost immediately recoil %viol aggravated weight upon' its rash com- • petitors, for the more the prices of its produce are reduced, the stronger will be the temptation and the greater the facility to carry on - the contest by a clandestine trade. In alluding to the Ame-• rican tariff, we have shown the utter impossibility of permanently excluding, by prohibitive duties, articles that can be manufactured cheaper and better abroad than at home; but if we cOuld speak of tt-grees in impossibility, we might say . that it is still more impossible to effect such an exclusion from . the Continent of Europe. With reference to the latter case, it • might he sufficient to cite as a proof instar 0711;1120/1 the total failure of tho Berlin and Milan decrees of Napoleon. These decrees failed, though sought to be 'enferced by a despot, armed with unlimited power, and governing the Continent as : one ui;!ed state. What possibility is there, then, of the principle wfiicli they embodied being sue- Cessful hi the present condition of .Europe It is well observed by the Times that the commer cial jealousy, the effect of which we feel for a season, is n ot directed exclusively against Great Britain ; each of the nations of the Con tinent is as jealous of all the rest as of this country—each aspires to be a manufacturing State, and seeks to exclude the produce of the induStry the world in . favour, of its own. -It'• is impossible to . blame the motive of this poli6Yl - .but •ong must be indeed blind not to see;ita.weakness. Boubtless,in,everyother matter, active competition tends to a geoeral'ad vancemeni, but in the competition ofrnoney, or whatever. concerns the expenditure, : of money, the effect of competition is to give the wealth of all ultiniately to the longest purse. We see it every day upon • a small scale in the ,opposi tion of coaches, steam-packets, &c.; and the process is precisely the same, and governed by the s a me principle, in the greatest affairs of com merce. Let Great Britain keep her capital by supporting her agriculture to the highest point possible, and by regulating, through wise laWs, the advances of her manufactures, and it is be yond the pOviier Of the whole world, though a miracle should unite the world iu a common pur pose, to deprive her of the manufacturing ascen dancy at which she has arrived.

CHRONICLE. —Abundance of money,' and no demand for it, is the general complaint in the neigh bourhood of the Bank of England and the Stock Ex change, while poverty and no means of getting money is the general complaint in the provinces. Money is heaped in large lumps in few hands who do not know what to do with it, and thus we have the anomaly of a great cheapness of money with a great depression in prices—a most unhealthy state of things. The job bers on the Stock Exchange were taking in Stock yesterday at one per cent., and the bill discounters in Lombard-street cannot do business at more than a fraction above two per cent. Yet the prices of corium -dities are extremely low, and are showing a tendency to further decline. The circulation of the Bank of England is 19,503,0001. by the last returns, which is greater than it has been at any period since the last renewal of the charter, with the exception of the memorable year 1838, when it was as high as 20,249,4001, in July, and 19,782,0001. in August of that year: These large amounts were produced by the attempts made at that time to stop the - drain of bullion required to pay for foreign corn by an ex pansion of -paper. The error was discovered, and has not been repeated. With the two exceptions above-named, the notes now in issue by the Bank of England, according to the last published returns, exceed any formenainount that appears in the returns since the charter was last renewed. In no one in stance since that . renewal has the same high amount of paper issues, with a large store of bullion, been co existent with a general paralysis of trade, absence of all commercial enterprise, and a serious and inveterate fall in prices. • Plenty of money, has generally been .first felt in the metropolis, from ~ which it has spread iriatundly,.and quickly to he provincies ; but this pre sent year of 1842'is , iarvexeeption to the general rule. Money is a drug in London, where it remains. There is no sympathetic action towards the provinces, and an increase of 2,163,0001. in Bank of England notes within the last twelve months • has been* counteracted by a decrease of 1,882,300/. in the notes of other banking establishments. Here we have a key to the anomaly—a solution of the problem that couples the cry of too much money in London, with that of no money at all in other parts of the kingdom But then 'domes the question, Why is - this ? What is . the cause that abundance exists in one part of the kingdom, and that scarcity per vades every other ?—That prices fall lower and lower, while money is to be had at 2 per cent ? The .B.finvysjs - that it arises from wide-spread poverty amongst the riiasw,, and want of confidence amongst the manufacturers. Tlibseow49 ilayg ~,goods in hand cannot sell, and those who have not are,oftai . 44o s Aet into stock, for, as we have frequently observed before, prices seem to find no bottom. This state of things is replete with anxiety, and it is fool-hardiness for men in power to look calmly on and do nothing to brighten the melancholy picture which is presented by this rough survey of the present condition of the country. But the leading members of the Cabinet point to the funds as a triumphant reply. Consols are at 94, they say, and such a high state of public credit is ample proof of the substantial prosperity of the nation.

Asa speaker, he is probably unrivalled in 'the House of Commons ' • he would have been unrivalled in a nisi prim , court. We have seen lately that a very good pleader may make a very bad Judge—(Applause)—and I am not sure that we shall not live to see that an excellent Parlia men tary orator may make a very indifferent Prime Minister.—(Applause.) I never gave the present Cabinet credit for having much heart.—(Hear, hear.) Those who have watched the tactics of the party may have seen a good deal of profession of sympathy for the great body of the people, in order to cover their own self-seeking ; but, for my part, I have never seen anything like a real regard for the interests of the country, such as would induce the Ministers to make a sacrifice, or to risk anything for the benefit of the people. But I had, up to this time, believed that there had been talent in the Cabinet ; I had, until this time, believed Sir Robert Peel to be a man of mi. , minent ability; but, looking at the course of his po licy at the present moment, when the country is in its present state, I must confess I am brought very much to doubt whether we have not both a heartless and a headless Cabinet.—(Loud cheers.) The Rev. W. H. BONNER then presented himself, and was loudly cheered. He said—Mr. Chairman, Ladies, and Gentlemen,—l have long observed a growing decline in the condition of my poor Christian brethren. lam used likewise to hear tradesmen tell of unparalleled difficulties arising from decreasing custom, and manufacturers and merchants lament a perpetually sinking and embarrassed market, and their consequent inability to keep up their usual amounts of employment and remuneration.—(lTear.)

I have heard the sons and ornaments of Scotland, Wales, and LAW LEAGUE. MANCHESTER, FRIDAY MORNING.--A crowded meeting of the Anti-Corn-law League took place last evening at the Picture Gallery, Market-street, John Bright, Esq., of Rochdale, and the Rev. Mr. Bonner, of Bilston, Staffordshire, having been invited to ad dress the meeting. In addition to these gentlemen, Richard Cobden, Esq., M.P., W. Rawson, 'Esq., Al derman Brooks, Alderman Walker, R. R. Moore, Esq., barrister, and Henry Rawson, Esq., were pre sent. George Wilson, Esq., Chairman of the Coun cil, presided. In openistg the proceedings, the CHAIRMAN said, since the last meeting they had progressed somewhat in making the arrangements for collecting the 50,0001. In Manchester a local committee had been formed, and they were most anxious to add the names of any one who would be willing to lend his assistance and take cards. These cards had been arranged to meet the circumstances of every class of people. They had them from sixpenny subscriptions up to 1001., or even thousands—up to any amount persons might be willing to give. Cards had already been issued which, when filled up, would contain subscriptions to the amount of 7601.; and the persons taking them had the fullest confidence of being able to return them fil led up in very short time. In addition to the committee he had mention ed,there was another committee (the local committee) sitting every day, the object of which was to form local committees in every town in the kingdom to co-operate with them. He was happy to say the ladies had formed a committee.. (Applause.) They would meet every Tuesday evening at five o'clock, and they were going most zealously to work. They would also in some measure form branch com mittees in other towns and he trusted that he would soon be able to state that these were all in active co operation throughout the kingdom.—(Hear, hear.) The working men were invited to lend their humble aid, and as an instance of what even they could effect in this way, he might mention that during last year a committee of working men was formed on a small scale to obtain weekly subscriptions among working men, and in about ten weeks they raised no less a sum than 3001.—(Applause.) The co-operation of the working men, therefore, was looked to as one very material means of assisting in this great scheme, the success of which gave stronger tokens of success at every approach towards the carrying into practical effect their plans for working it out.—(Applause.) The Chairman then announced the Rev. Mr. Bonner, of Bilston, but before he rose, R. COBDEN, Esq., M.P., said—l am very - sorry to interpose one moment with a matter of business, but I have a contribution to present to the League ; and as I do not know the party from whom it comes, I must explain the circumstances to you. An elderly gen:, tleman called upon me on Tuesday, having the ap pearance of a country gentleman ; and he put this paper into my hand, accompanied by a Bank note : " A landowner, possessed of several farms, subscribes 1001. to the Anti-Corn-law League Fund.—(Loud applause.) It is a money question, and the money speaks for itself. The subscription shall be repeated, if requisite."—(Loud cheering.) I never saw the gentleman before—probably shall never see him again. He did not wait for any conversation. I tried to have a little talk with him, as to his views on the Corn laws, as affecting his interests ; but I could get no thing from the old gentleman but this simple remark —" It is a question of money—it is a question of money—and the money speaks for itself."—(Loud applause.) In handing this money over to our worthy treasurer I beg leave to move a vote of thanks to our unknown benefactor.—(Applause.) Mr. W. RAwSON—Would the meeting think it would be well to frame and glaze this note ? Mr. COBDEN—No, no. suggest a much better use for the money, and I hope our venerable friend will be satisfied that it has been applied to a much better purpose. We will spend it in canvassing 2,000 electors of this kingdom ; they shall be effectually canvassed, and supplied with all the information that is at our disposal, with this 100/.—(Applause.) I have lately received a letter from Mr. 1% allace, the Member for Greenock, which I will read to you. He dates from Kelly, Oct. 25, 1842, and says, — "My dear Sir—There cannot be a doubt in the minds of those who look dispassionately into the state of the working and industrious classes generally, of the necessity—l use the word advisedly—the neces sity of the state of the nation being, without loss of time, discussed by the representatives of the people in Parliament. Ministers cannot resist this, any more than those they removed from office; for the causes of our present condition are all easily traceable to both as well as to either. But the state of the country, and the condition of the people all over it, call with a voice of lamentation, which should neither be scorned nor unattended to, for an immediate rand searching inquiry, by the in quest of the nation, into the causes of the degraded position of our country. This was my opinion when I moved my six resolutions last July, respecting the then undeniable existing distress. The distress of the people was then made a party questiop, and its con cealment was part and portion of party tactics. I firmly believe the same game is still goims on all over the country, and that the actual condition of the starving millions is kept back from the Government by their adherents in the provinces, just because they have got a hint that to state unpleasant truths is by no means to please at present. I know of no other organised body which at this time would be so much attendelto throughout the country, on the all-impor tant question of Parliament being assembled, as the League. In the usual routine of parliamentary tactics, four months must be added to the two which have elapsed before Parliament can take any steps for the relief of the country ; for should we really meet the day after pheasant shooting closes (and no Minis ter can command his 4 thick-and-thin supporters' sooner). nothing effectual could be done before the 20th of February. You cannot fail to remember we were told, day after day, from the Ministerial benches, that it was too late in the session, and that there was not time for such important mea sures. Well, let us begin in time,: I say ; let us begin now, and work until we have done our work properly and completely: At all events,, I earnestly hope to find that the Anti-Corn-law League has done its duty, not only by urging the immediate meeting of Parliament, but by using every means at its com mand to keep the actual state of the working classes, and those depending on them, before the public.” — (Applause.) I thought it only due to Mr. Wallace, one who is so well known for his patriotic and honest conduct, both in and out of Parliament, that this com munication should be thus publicly made known to the members of the League. I may add that the Council of the. League,. to whom I referred it, do not think it advisable to recommend any agitation for the purpose of making any demonstration to Government of the necessity of calling Parliament together. It has been determined that the course we are now pursuing is that which will most conduce to the interest of the great mass of the people, whose sufferings, along with Mr. Wallace, I am sure that we all earnestly deplore. hear,) It appears that there is no inten tion of calling Parliament together earlier than the usual period. The responsibility of this must rest wholly upon the Government ; I should say rather emphatically, it rests wholly with Sir Robert Peel.— ' (Hear, hear.) Now, during the last session of Par liament, Very great allowance was made, Very great forbearance was exercised towards the Premier, on ac count of the difficulties of his new position ; and I must say I think he traded through that session very much indeed upon the bankrupt political reputation of his predecessors, the former Ministers. —(Loud applause.) Great forbearance was exhibited towards Sir Robert Peel by the Opposition, because it was felt by the independent part of the Opposition that any very strong attacks made upon him would be misconstrued by the country, and thought to be rather unfair, and to be playing into the hands of the Whigs, who had preceded him.—(Hear, hear.) Now, it is quite clear Sir Robert Peel can be entitled to no such forbearance in the approaching session. He is now responsible, at all events, for not having the present state of the country diligently inquired into instantly by the Parliament. He has' it in his power to call the Parliament together this week, if he pleases; and as he fails to do so, Sir Robert Peel will be charge able when Parliament meets again in February, with the protracted sufferings of the people during the winter.—(Applause.) He voluntarily charges him self with all this responsibility. What his object may be I cannot pretend to divine. I believe him to have been without a plan from the beginning of his go vernment.—(Loud applause.) He is eminently a Minister who lives upon expedients, who lives from hand to mouth, who trusts to the chapter of acci dents—(Cheers)—and probably he expects that there may be something in the doctrine of chances that may benefit him bef ore next February.—(Applause.) I have prophesied to him before, and however disre garded my prophecies may have been . , they have not been less true ; and I venture to predict now, that he is only putting off the day of reckoning in order to augment very much indeed his liabilities. I must confess the experience we have had of Sir Robert Peel, Ireland, tell the same pain-giving tale as do the af flicted children of England.—(Hear ' hear.) Then whence our distress ? Is there, on the part of our foreign customers, any indisposition to deal with us ? Their repeated and straight-forward messages to our Government assure me in the negative.—(llear, hear.) They would, if they could, deal with us on equitable terms' to an indefinite extent, and so set all hands to work, and so give us the advantage of our abundance and strength.—(Hear; hear.) What hin ders , them ? The rent-law of the lords of our soil. V 1# , C-.- to petition Parliament to pass a law to compel people to stay at home, that would be just about as wiso thing as was done by the Liverpool shipowners, who abetted and petitioned in' favour of a law, and sent to Parliament men to support a law, which declared that there should be little trade, and a much smaller quan tity of goods passing over the ocean than would other wise be the case. But the merchants of Liverpool had been so dreadfully injured by the last three or four years' bad trade, that they were coming somewhat to their senses ; they had got as far as a moderate fixed duty, which was somewhere between ss. and 155., according to a man's own notions. But they had no notion of a change in the Corn-laws for any other object than to make the price a little steadier, in order that they might safely speculate on the price at which they could sell foreign corn, and the rate of duty at which it could be introduced. If these men wished to maintain the character • which English merchants once held all over the world, they must look around them, and ask themselves what was to become of millions of their fellow-countrymen who were not so rich* as them, and to whom the difference of a few shillings in the price of a sack of flour was a matter of the utmost consequence.—(Applause.) There were other objects to be gai n ed by the repeal of the Corn-laws besides the creating of a steady trade. If the trade were steady, as it would be under a fixed duty, that was no reason why they should hold e their a t rgol ilyad me r• themselves satisfied and content, w hil e th e whole people ou s s woul d a were star r ing, rhe u i s r e y the rad e L a i chants possible.—(Hear, hear.) As for the brolters on the Liverpool Exchange, he sometimes thought they would, not see a single fibre's breadth beyond the staple of the cotton about which they were concerned.-- (Applause.) They seemed to crawl and cri n g e to some great men w hom. they knew had cargoes to sell ; they hardly knew their souls were their own ; they seemed never to read or reflect; and in the Liverp oo l Exchange, for one newspaper in favour of free trade, there were ten in favour of monopoly.—(Applause.) Such was the blindness, the benightedness of the leading interests in that town. Notwithstanding this, if things went on as they were going on, th e strongest prejudices would break down, and the misled people would be brought to their senses through the potent influence of empty pockets. In conclusion, he moved the thanks of the meeting to Mr. Bonner. Mr. Alderman Buooxs seconded the motion, which was agreed to, and briefly acknowledged by Mr. Bonner; and the proceedings then terminated. GREAT FIRE AT MANCHESTER. EIGHT PERSONS KILLED. FRIDAY MORNING, ELEVEN OCLOCIC.—A shocking fire broke out here last night at the extensive cotton mills of Messrs. Pooley, Mill-street, Ancoats, about two hours before the time at which the place usually closes for the night. The fire originated near the centre of the building called the New Mill, which is the only portion of the premises not fireproof, and such was the fearful rapidity with which the flames spread, that a portion of the hands had not time to escape. Hence, in addition to the destruction of pro perty which followed the calamity, it has been at tended with a fearful loss of life. It may be necessary to mention that the fire broke out near the grand staircase, by which access was obtained to the different rooms, and this will explain the reason why the escape of some of the work people was cut off. The fire speedily illuminated the whole town, and the town fire-engines were im mediately at work, but a great portion of the new mill was soon a mass of ruins, and the flames had spread along the roof of what is called the fire-proof mill, before its progress was arrested. Some of the hands whose escape was cut off were seen clinging to the windows during the progress of the fire, and some attempts were made at rescue, but the risk was too great, and they were buried in the ruins. Exaggerated rumours are abroad as to the loss of life, and it is said that 25 persons are missing. At the time we write eight dead bodies have been re moved from the ruins, and one more (that of a female) is known still to be amongst the fallen wreck of ma terials. Some boys, employed as scavengers in the mill, are still missing, but it is not known whether they are amongst the sufferers. The damage is rumoured to exceed 10,0001., but nothing like an accurate estimate can yet have been formed of the real loss. —(Applause.) ; A body of men forming a nine hundredth part of our population has effected this mischief. By this law, the master-piece of class le gislation, they have locked against us the storehouses of our allies, hand-bound capitalists, beggared our ar tisans, and served themselves.—(Applause). As a lover of my kind, I am a friend to popular education. I believe the Corn-laws greatly assist to perpetuate ignorance.—(Hear, hear). The inadequate wages fixed by a fettered commerce disable a father by his own industry to support his family. His wife must therefore work, and thus her offspring are deprived of her tender care and instructions.—(Hear, hear). The toil of both is insufficient; on this account the little ones cannot be sent to school beyond a very limited period. Their infant days must be spent in a mill or workshop, and their feeble toil must contribute its mite to the still scanty pittance. Excessive or prolonged labour indisposes to the habit of study, stunts the mental energies, and produces depravity of manners. No wonder then that masses of our people, with their haggard faces and ragged garbs have ignorant and embittered minds, and that some of them are sus ceptible of the infatuation inspired by artful dema gogues.—(Hear.) Yet the authors of their debase ment cruelly reproach them with unfitness to be in trusted with the civil rights of man. Humanity, with tearful eyes, points to starving thousands, and be seeches them to unite; reason, with truthful argu ment, persuades them to •unite ; justice, with sterner tongue, commands them to unite ; and religion, hold ing forth the Bible, and, pointing towards Heaven, seconds the proposition in the name of the God of righteousness, and waits to rejoice in their success. On the Rev. Gentleman resuming his seat, the com pany ross., and cheered for a considerable time. T. 13e to 11T, ES(I ~ of Rochdale, after a few prelimin ary observations, said he regretted that the plan which had been agreed upon for conducting these meetings had not been followed out that night by having a a Member of Parl:ament to address them.—(Cries of " Mr. Cobden.") Ile regarded Mr. Cobden as their own, as one of themselves.—(Applause.) He regretted it, because the presence of Members of Parliament gave some little additional interest to their meetings ; but he regretted it the more, because he thought that was an atmosphere which it would be exceedingly serviceable for a great many Members of the House of Commons to pass through before they went up to Parliament.—(Applause.) From what little observa tion he had been able to make during his visits to London on the question of the Corn-laws, there was a good deal in that House to make a man less honest after he entered it than before he went there.—(Ap plause and laughter.) The atmosphere of that room, on the contrary, was of a peculiarly bracing cha racter ; and he was quite certain that if all the Mem bers of Parliament could be made to pass through that room before the commencement of the next session, a very different tone of feeling would be manifested in Parliament to what was displayed last session. A fortnight ago they had the pleasure of the company of the Member for Ashton ; he trusted he had received no injury by coining there.—(Applause.) Last week they had the Member for Bury, whose speech must have been gratifying to all who had heard or read it, except the monopolists themselves.--(Applause.) Mr. Walker had alluded to the representation of this county, and said that if the repeal of the Corn-laws depended on the Members sent from Lancashire, it could not be carried. It appeared there were as many 3lernbers for Lancashire who voted wrong as voted right; therefore, as far as the number of votes went, Lanca shire was unrepresented in the senate of the country. But he trusted the time was coming when there would be a marvellous change. He thought they might prognosticate, from circumstances passing before them, that at some coining general election they should be able to make a clear sweep of every monopolist from the county.—(Applause.) In Manchester and Sal ford the registration and the constituencies were in such a condition that no monopolist would dare to show his face at any future election.—(Applause.) No monopolist, as a monopolist, had dared to do it at the last election : they had come under the character of free-traders, but were found out, and were not I trusted. At the next election, the men of Manchester and Salford, having no contests in their own towns, would have more time to devote to the county elec tions. The same would be the case in Rochdale and some other boroughs. Warrington was now repre sented by a monopolist ; at the next election, there was every reason to believe that he would be relieved from his duties.—(Applause.) At Wigan there was a divided interest, one of the monopolists having been unseated on petition ; at the next election there was every probability that that borough would return two free-traders. At Blackburn there were at present two monopolists; one had slipred in by a majority of one, the other had v er y few more ; but they had it on the authority of a monopolist newspaper in that town, that " the vile Anti-Corn-law League party had obtained a decided majority of cotes" at the last registration ; therefore, those two monopolists must give place to better men at the next election.—(Applause.) Clitheroe was also represented by a monopolist, who had been seated on petition ; but from information he had obtained, he had not the smallest doubt that that gentleman would be relieved from future service at the next election.—(Applau se. ) There remained only Lancaster anode iverpool. Lan caster returned two monopolists, onby . a very small majority ; he would undoubted)?' be relieved at the next election, and it rested wit the free traders of that town whether both would not, for they had power enough, if they would work hard, to turn both out.— (Applause.) As to poor Liverpool he was almost at a loss what to say ; but this might be said, that if the Reform Bill constituency alone had existed in Liver pool, no monopoly Member would have been returned sin ce the passing of the Refor m Bill. At the last election a decided m a j orit y of the ten-pounders and were in favour of the free trade candidates ; and had it not been for the venal freemen a h eybought w ho we re base enough to sell their votes, certain men on Change, who w thou sand times more base, inasmuch as them, free trade representatives would have been returned for that borough. What a strange thought brokers, that a consist on si Liverpool st of? Shipowners,should r ur n monopolistsa.ndaWhatrr didthis hriss.

It falls to our lot to record the particulars of a fire which has been attended with consequences of a more lamentable nature than have resulted from any similar occurrence for a considerable time past. We regret to say that the event of which we now speak is de plorable, not so much on account of the extent of the damage to property, as on account of the melancholy sacrifice of human life, no less than six young persons having been killed by scorching, suffocation, and in other ways. The fire took place on Thursday even ing, at the extensive premises of Mr. Chas. Pooley, cotton-spinner, in Bradford-street, Ancoats,andbroke out about six o'clock, while the whole of the hands were at work. The buildings form two sides , of a parallelogram, and are situate between Bradford street and the Rochdale Canal. The names of the sufferers are—William R;dgway„ aged 18 years ; John Snape, aged 15 years ; Mars - M`lienzie, aged , l6 years ; Mary M'Corville, aged 14 Years; Robert Garvin, aged 14 years ; and thanes Nl'Munn, aged 19 years. The building next the Rochdale Canal is a con tinuous one; it is twenty-two windows in length, and the building ru nnin ,, towards Bradford-street is pro bablv about half that' length. Information of the fire was received by Mr. Rose, at the police-yard, at a quarter before seven o'clock. The Niagara engine was immediately got ready, and Mr. Rose and his son, with a company of firemen, proceeded with it t to the spot, but on their arrival, so rapid had 'been the 'pro gress of the flames, they found that part of the pre mises called No. 3 Mill, was completely gutted, and that the fire had communicated to the warehouse, which gave every appearance of being speedily in a general blaze. No time was lost in getting the engine into play, a plentiful supply of water being obtained from two plugs in Bradford-street. The pipe from the Niagara was conveyed over the wall into the yard, and from thence up the staircase, with a view of preventing the fire communicating with the rooms of the fire-proof building, which was full of carding and other valuable machinery. A. branch from the Vesta engine, which shortly follo wed the Niagara, and which was supplied with water from plugs at the top of Bradford-street ar.d Beswick street, was also conveyed up the staircase, and the quantity of water thrown from the 'two engines had such an effect in diminishing the heat, that the firemen were enabled to ascend gradually from one landing to another until they arrived at the sixth story. Here they discovered the dead hodof y a boy lying in the doorway of the rooms, and it was evident that the poor fellow had been scorched to death in attempting to escape by the staircase. The body was immediately conveyed into the yard, and from thence to the Bridge Inn, a short dis tance from the scene of the melancholy Soon afterwards the bodies of four more young persons were found in the same room. One gave slight signs of life, and was taken by the police, under th cata4,rophe. the direction of Mr. Superintendent Saw ley, 7t . o tim e e Ardwick and Ancoats Dispensary ; but he by b( t 3d was they arrived there life was extinct. this a boy had been killed in attemp then conveyed to the Navigation Innt.'r letting from the fourth story of the fire-proof by himself down by a ladder.

FOREIGN WOOL TRADE, LEEDS, Nov. 4.—The demand this week has been ,rather of an inanimate character, and no great amount of business has been transacted. The manufacturers, we find, still manifest the . greatest caution and timidity in their purchases of the raw material, which may naturally be attributed to the difficulty they experience in disposing of their goods .at anything like a remunerating price. ENGLISH WOOL MARKET, LEEDS, Nov. 4.—Our report of this branch of trade is of the same character as those - of the last few weeks, and sales continue limited. In prices the tendency is downwards ; but we do not report any alteration from last week's quo- tations. TRADE or LEEDS.—The markets at our Cloth Halls have been very dull this week for goods of every description. The season being now far advanced for the sale of winter goods for the home trade, little is done in the market except to order, or for assorting stocks to a very limited extent. The manufacturers were never at any time so much perplexed to know what to make that will meet with a ready sale as at the present time. In the warehouses business has been correspondingly dull; few buyers have been at the market during the week, and business in cmse- quence has been flat. BRADFORD MARKET, TuunsDAY,—The demand for Pieces, which is only limited, is still confined to theoriginal manufacture, such: as Merinos; Orleans, and other heavy winter goodS. In the fancy trade there is not a vestige of improveinent, and the manu facturers engaged in that branch are very dispirited, nearly all working short time, with a large proportion , of engines idle. It is really beco min g im p erative for • them to act with great caution, and w e trust , though the operatives are now suffering great privations by being without work, that they may be benefited -by an early resumption. There is no marked alteration in the demand for yarns ; the shippers are making more inquiries, and probably in a short time more will be done by them, or they will not be able to ship. for the winter consumption,: unless their purchases are made very early. The mills still c on ti nue to he very partially employed, .^nd a great m a ny runnin g only during . daylight., The business- done in wool during the week is only limited, and that chiefly in . 'ethers. and. .matehings of a full br e d descri p tion. Hogs are Still in slow request, and it' is difficult to e iossible effect sales of them. The farmers Still cling to their wools, and the staplers state that it is q uit to give the present rates demanded by them, m t p o meet the current prices of this market. • TRADE OF MANCHESTER, THURSDAY EVENING.— We have had more doing in our cloth market this week than of-late; and the consequence has been more steadiness and a greater facility or making sales at fUll prices than fur many weeks past. Wriet her this (improvement :it can scarcely be called) state of th in g s will:b6 either lasting or progres s i ve it is hard to say , for we have `had so many evane scen t s ymptoms in the last five years, that few have any confidence in the present•firtnness of the market. - Twist is in.much the same state as the cloth trade—hotter to sell but not dearer.—Leeds Mercury. - A PIRATI U C N /I N V O E W S'S N.

The sleep's boats then returned w ith their p ri ze , having taken two of the pirates alive. On the deck of the Pylades great noises were subsequently heard from the shore,.and next day it appeared that the inhabitants had mustered and killed all the pirates as they reached the shore. These pirates had for some t ime before lan ded , and k illed and plun dered o seaort. ni oli that the pirates had been destroyed, that a th a nks with presents w as sent to Captain Aei e people on shore, and so gteat wazi their gra for the services that had been rendered to tito t o, them. The Admiral on the station on hearing of the circums t anc es, also complimented the captain, officers, and crew of the Pylades . for their gallant conduct. The pirates on being boarded had their decks prepared for action. There were but 20 men dispatched on this service from the Pylades. Dr. Addams now moved the Court to carry out the regulations of the 6th Geo. IV., passed for the pur pose of encouraging her Majesty's navy in destroying pirates and piratical vessels. By this Act 201. was directed to be awarded as bounty money for each pi rate destroyed, and as there were in all .100 pirates killed either in action or by drowning; the officers and crew of the Pylades were entitled to an award from the Court in .their fav our. The Queen's Advocate was read y t o admit t hat . the officers and crew engag ed in this attack h a d behaved as they always did, wit h g reat g allantr y , and he did of iratical junks: this than the opinion expressed by the Commander on the station, ; but the question pirates, or whe ther nottilwase r, t,iv iwishwhether t t i o dl ei,ri t restrict nhoo ts o m t e l their i belongr r t ew rd reallyo the Chi nese nav y.
