MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday was rather dull, although a fair business was done. Prices of all kinds were barely main tained, and the transactions were 6,000 bales, minding 500 Pernam and Maranham, 6d. to ; 70 Bahia, 6d. to Qd. ; 100 Egyptian, 52d. to 70. ; 1,000 Surat, 31d. to 40. ; and 60 Sea Islands, Did. to is. Bd. per lb. In the Railway Share Market there was exceedingly little doing, and the few sales that took place were at lower prices. Accounts from France announce that the prices of sugar and coffee in the seaport town markets is rising considerably in consequence of the large Purchases effected on English account, and that spe culation goes on with great vivacity. In Paris the retail price of loaf sugar has risen from 35 to 40 centimes per kilogramme, which has caused much sensation amongst the middle classes, who are large consumers of that article, as it is a second rise within the year. The influx of British gold, in payment for those commodities ex ported here, has added to the easiness of the Money Market. Capitalists are making large purchases in the French Funds, which has given an impetus to business on the Bourse, and caused them to rise— the 3 per Cents. for money ruling at 10 centimes higher than the closing prices of Saturday, and 45c. in dealings for the close of the month. The cultivation of tobacco in Algeria has in creased so much, and the imports from that colony into France have become so considerable that it has affected the interests of those departments in the parent country which produce that article, and caused the Government to limit its importation to 4 millions of kilogrammes. Accounts from Holland and Belgium announce that there is a general rise in the prices of sugar and coffee in the principal markets, and large pur chases have been made on account of British traders. At Antwerp large stocks have been sold at an advance of 10 per cent. on former prices. Letters from Birmingham, in reference to the iron trade, mention that the misunderstanding be tween some of the masters and men has terminated, and that the latter have returned to their employ ment at their former wages. Without the pres sure of any activity there is still a sufficient num ber of orders to keep the works in steady opera tion, and the market, consequently, rules firm at previous quotations. Notwithstanding this, some further suspension has occurred however, but the liabilities are not of a very important amount. The rnarket . for English Securities has presented a buoyant appearance to-day, and the advanced rates of yesterday afternoon have been exceeded. The continuance of extensive purchases, both for investment and on speculation, together with the relief afforded to the Money Market by the liqui dation of the instalments due this day on the Con 801s Loan, is the cause of the upward tendency. Consols for money opened about 88i to 88k, and are 110 w 88} to 881 The account values have been as high as 88 fto 88 which prices have been maintained. Exchequer Bills are 10s. to 7s. discount. The New 3 per Cents, are 87f to 87k, and the Reduced 87 to 87 1• Bank Stock is 209. Poreign securities are exceedingly quiet, the only t ransactions having been in Spanish Deferred Stock at 38k, Turkish 6 per Cent. at 80 to 80±, and in the New Scrip at 31 to 311, which, in the two last named, is a decided improvement. The following are the nominal prices of foreign a t°CkB -- Grenada Deferred Bonds, 61- to 7 ; Mexican, 19± ; Peruvian, 74 to 76 ; ditto Three Per Cents., 52 to 54; Portuguese Four per Cents., 43 to 45 ; Russian Five per Cents., 94 to 96 ; ditto rour-and-a-Half per Cents., 85 to 88; Spanish New Deferred, 19f 20 ; ditto Three per Cents., 38i ; ditto Certificates, 4i to 41 ; ditto Passive, 6k. The Railway Shares have all improved, but there is little activity in the market, although in °lle or two cases it is as much as to per cent. The Foreign Lines are better also, but rule quiet. There have been bargains in East India Guaran teed at steady prices. London Joint-Stock Bank Shares are 10s. higher. General Screw Steam are rather flat. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY.—CLOSING PRICES.

THIEVES AND RECEIVERS.—JC•hn Ifyat t, 33, carman, Watkin Hyatt, 26, labourer, and Chas. P.. Marshall, 36, general dealer, were indicted, the two for mer with steal ing at Lambeth half a ton of coals, the pi .operty of Wm. Constantine Rowton and Co., coal raerchrmts, Belvidere road, Lambeth. (Front the _Times of Otis day.) In the days that preceded the first French Re volution, when opinion on the Continent was com paratively free, and German sovereigns were not afraid of uttering liberal sentiments, and feeling, or at least professing, a sincere interest not merely in the taxpaying and recruiting powers, but in the progress, welfare, and enlightenment of their sub jects, there lived an E m p eror o f A us t r i a w h o ren dered illustrious in the annals of Europe the second of the two names borne with some what less eclat by her present youthful Sovereign. Jose ph 11. conferred i nes ti ma bl e b enef i ts on the Austrian church and people by his manly and vigorous resistance to the encroachmentt of the Court of Rome. It was his policy to vest the go vernment of the church in the bishops, and the supreme power over the bishops in himself. It was in vain that the Pope unde r t oo k a j ourney i n order to dissuade the Emperor from his policy. The Pope was courteously received, splendidly en tertained, and sent back to Ronne without having been able to obtain the slightest concession. From that time to this the Austrian Church has enjoyed, in greater or less measure, the benefits of thenoble stand made on her behalf by the Emperor, until, on the sth of this present November, a document was solemnly promulgated as fatal to the power and unity of government in Austria as the great conspiracy the detection of which we celebrate on that day would have been to the power and inde pendence of the temporal and spiritual govern ment of England. In this most strange and most discreditable document the Emperor of Austria seems to complete the measure of those distresses and humiliations whist' will make his reign ever memorable in the chequered annals of the house of Hapsburg. Young as he is, the Emperor has already been forced to confess himself vanquished by his own insurgent subjects, to beg for the restitution of his Crown at the feet of a neigh bouring and contemptuous Sovereign, to aban don the position of armed menace which he had taken up, and to disband an army which he had not resolution to use. These, however, were misfortunes forced upon him by stern necessity, humiliations in which, though there might be much to`pity, there was little to condemn. But the shame ful Concordat with the Popo is a voluntary act of degradation, justified by no State necessity, en forced by no overpowering conjuncture of circum stances. It is a spontaneous act of self-spoliation and self-abasement, a voluntary betrayal and sur render of the most sacred rights of the Crown, the clergy, and the people. It assumes the dimensions of a great political crime, and exhibits despotism in its worst form, not of caprice and tyranny, but of deliberate and complete betrayal of the rights and interests intrusted in an evil hour to its selfish and faithless keeping. The Concordat consists of 36 articles, every one of them a deadly stab to freedom of conscience and the independence of the Crown, the church, and the laity of Austria. The first article declares the maintenance of the Roman Ca tholic religion, with all the privileges which, by the laws of the church, it ought to have, unlimited per secution of heretics being of the number. Thus fall at a single blow that liberty of conscience and freedom of opinion in religious matters which have hitherto so honourably distinguished the Austrian Government. The second article gives to the bishops, clergy - , and laity free communication with the Pope, without the intervention of the temporal ruler, thus depriving the Emperor of any power or control over the national church, and placing it in the power of the Pope to contrive and execute the most dangerous conspiracies against the Govern ment. It is impossible to carry the doctrine of im perium in imperio further, and tolerant Austria has thus submitted to a yoke which would have been scorned by bigoted Spain in the days of Ferdinand and Isabella. The third article gives the bishops complete authority, pastoral and legis lative, over their clergy ; and the fourth places this authority under the control of the Papal chair. The fifth article places all public and private schools under the control of the bishops ; and the sixth gives the bishops the power of appointing and re moving the only persons allowed to teach sacred theology. The seventh article provides that none but Catholic professors shall be allowed to teach anything in the middle-class schools, and the books of instruction are to be chosen by the bishops. By the eighth article the Emperor is permitted to choose the inspector of the schools of the diocese, but under the degrading condition that the candi dates from whom he is to select shall be chosen by the bishops. The ninth article promises the help of the Government to suppress such books as are dangerous to religion in the judgment of the bishops. The tenth article establishing ecclesiasti cal courts for the punishment of the clergy and the trial of cases relating to marriage and betrothal. The eleventh article arms the bishop with the power of inflicting ecclesiastical punishment on clergy and laity ; and the twelfth article surrenders to the spiritual courts the power of deciding on the right of patronage, except in the case of a disputed sucl cession. We will not enumerate all the articles, which will be found at length elsewhere, but it must occur to any one who has read this brief abstract of the most important to inquire what can have been the motives which induced Francis Donald Hastie, clerk to the prosecutors,. said that Job* Hyatt was a carman in their employ, and Watkin Hyatt was engaged by him as trouncer. On Saturday, the 6th off October, they sent seven tons of coals to, Miss Reymer, tour of which the prisoner John Hyatt, had charge of. From information he received he spoke to Sergeant Romaine, and afterwards went to Mill-street, Lambeth walk, and watched about the house of the prisoner Mar shay.ll. About nine o'clock witness saw the van pull up at the shop of the latter prisoner, and then five sacks of coals were removed and the empty sacks replaced in the van which drove away. The coals is question were ozdered for Miss Reymer, and John Hyatt bad no right to sell them to any one else. A verdict of guilty was returned against John Hyatt and Marshall, and acquitted Watkin Hyatt. The Chairman sentenced John Hyatt. to six months, and Marshall nine months in the House of Correction at Wandsworth. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. —{This Day. BOW-STREET. ROBBERY BY A. SERVANT.—This morning a man named Damper was placed at the bar charged with robbing his employers; Messrs. Nettlethorp, iron mongers, carrying on business in Holborn. From the evidence it appeared that for some consider able period a suspicion was entertained that some per son was robbing the firm, but the prisoner was not for some time suspected to be the person, but from certain circumstances it was thought advisable to mark the money in the till, to which the prisoner had access, to test his honesty. Accordingly last night the second son of Mr. Net tlethorp, after the premises were closed and the prisoner had left, marked the whole of the money in the till, thirty-four pieces, amounting to thirty-five shillings, and then returned the money and safely locked it up. Among the money so marked was half-a-crown. At the usual hour this morning the prisoner arrived at the shop and immediately began his usual work, such as arranging the articles in the shop, &c., and dur ing which time he was left alone, and of course the till Was at his mercy. According to previous arrangement a police constable entered the shop this morning shortly after eight o'clock, and the till was examined in the pri soner's presence, and three shillings and a half-crown were found missing. The prisoner was then searched by the officer, and on him was found the three shillings and half-a-crown, all of which bore the mark he had placed upon them the previous evening. A skeleton key was also found in his pocket, which unlocked the till. The Magistrate said it was a bad case, and fully corn. witted the prisoner for trial. THAMES. SAVAGE ASSAULT ON A WIFE—SIX MONTHS' IMPRI SONMENT.—Samuet King, a tall and powerful man, a dock labourer, was brought before Mr. Ingham, charged with assaulting his wife, Louisa King, a re spectable-looking woman, who carried a child in her arms, which was like a skeleton, The complainant stated that she had been married to her husband for two years, and that he had taken her from a good home and reduced her from affluence to poverty. She kept a beer shop when he married her, and was getting a good living. He had since repeatedly ill-used her. On the Ist of May last he was brought to that court and sentenced to one month's imprisonment for beating her. He had since ill-used her and was con stantly intoxicated. He was, in fact, a sly drunkard, who put his money by and went out and drank by himself, and came home and pretended he was ill. Last night she went in search of her husband, and found him at the Greenland Fishery public-house, in Redman's•row, Stepney. She asked him to come home, and he abused her and knocked her down, with the baby in her arms. When she got, he ill-used her most brutally, and beat her about th head and body with his clenched fists. The byestander interfered, and he was given into custody. In answer to questions by Mr. Ingham, the witness said that she bad taken out several warrants against her husband, and only appeared against him once. He had communicated to her a loathsome disease. She had kept her beer-shop until eight weeks ago, when he turned her out of doors, and brought in several " dirty huzzies" whom he had been in the habit of treating. The prisoner, in defence, said his wife was a habitual drunkard, and had been drinking that morning. Mr. Ingham—Does this woman appear to be tipsy I Mr. Livingston, the Chief Usher—No, :sir ; but she is very ill, and her child appears to be dying. It is in a sad state. Mrs. King sobbed bitterly, and said she had been half starved, and had been in bad health from her husba*d's ill-treatment ever since she married him. She had re ceived 30s. Irons her husband i❑ eight weeks. Her con stitution was completely broken up, and she was afraid her infant would not live many hours. Joseph Atkins confirmed the statement of the com plainant as to the assault last night, and said the pri soner struck her a dreadful blow on the side with his clenched fist, and said he would knock her b—y brea s t bone in. Joseph to sign this shameful capitulation, and, without any apparent consideration, to abdicate his right to control the actions, the education, and the administration of justice between his sub jects to a foreign Prince whose own govern ment of his own dominions is notoriously one of the most corrupt and tyrannical in the world, and of whom he has no assurance that he may not at any moment become the tool of a foreign hos tile State, and employ the vast power he acquires over the subjects of Austria for the purpose of her dismemberment and destruction. We believe the motive for this Concordat to be the desire of Aus tria to place herself firmly at the head of the Ger manic Confederation, and completely to defeat and extinguish the rivalry of Prussia. A noble oppor tunity offered for effecting this darling object of her policy by joining the Western Powers, and taking a leading part in the European war of in dependence. But for such a step Austria was n• more prepared than Prussia • and therefore, with her usual preference of the more ignoble over the more generous springs of action she has determined to owe her victory in the struggle to the ignor ance and superstition, instead of to the admiration and respect, of mankind. She might have become the leader of Germany by vindicating her from the attacks of a temporal aggressor ; she has preferred to rest her claims to supremacy on the good ser vice which does her country by selling it into the hands of a despicable spiritual tyranny. The path of honour trodden by the allies is too hazardous, and Austria deems her object may be more readily obtained by th e path of shame. She ought to know her own game best, yet we cannot escape the conviction that in this policy she is overreaching herself. The Austrian church views with the utmost alarm and terror the sur render of its liberties into the hands of the Court of Rome, and the enlightened portion of the laity regard such a proceeding with un dissembled disgust. It may well turn out that by the Concordat, instead of rallying round her a united Catholic party, Austria has only been the means of creating schism and divisions in the church, and that this violent ultramon tane aggression may be met with an equally energetic reaction. It may also well be that the immense powers which she has thus conceded over her domestic affairs to a foreign Prince may be em ployed by him as the instrument of France or Rus: Other witnesses deposed to the savage nature of the assault last night at the Greenland Fishery. The woman was in a very low condition, and fainted away, and her husband was in such a savage humour that he would have killed her if the people in the house had not interfered. The prisoner gave utterance to the most dreadful threats and exclamations, and repeatedly struck his wife, and k noc k e d h er d own , sw earing every time that he would k noc k h er b reas t b on e in. One witness, living opposite to the prisoner and his wife for some time, described him as a drunken, profligate fel- low, and the wife as a sober and industrious woman. Mr. Ingham commented at some length on the atrocious conduct of the prisoner towards his wife, and sentenced him to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for six calendar months. sia, and that, in exchange for a very doubtful immediate advantage, she may find that she has surrendered powers of internal regulation which it may be difficult, or even impossible to resume. Surely it was scarcely wise to introduce into an empire of discordant nationalities, whose only bond of cohesion is the sword, another anarchical in fluence, to be exercised by a Prince, of whom ii is only certain that he will use it without the slightest regard for the welfare of Austria, it not under the immediate control of her rivals and her enemies. Is he truly and strongly for carrying it out with vigour ? Does he share the fixed resolution af the Premier to submit to no incomplete peace, to adopt no terms but those which were fixed by Right a•.nd Justice for the War 7 A fie caunot very much regret the f orce o f a s pirit which is carrying England triumphantly and ho nourably forward ; and we regr e t it th e less, per haps, because in the present instance we believe that we cau give a satisfactory answer to the in quiries which it dictates. A glance at the late Par liamentary course of Mr. Labouchere will show that ho has steadily and straightforwardly adheredto the necessity of the vigorous measures of war pursued by the present Ministry. He is not a min to waste much oratory on the subject, nor is he likely to dis play himself in speeches on matters in which he is not immediately concerned ; but he is a man whose abil i ties and powers have always been conscientiously used, and have never been sacrificed to the cry of a faction—have never pandered to the longing for place. Mr. Labouchere, therefore, judging him by his votes, is one whose sagacity has led him to the honest conviction that the war must be carried out vigorously and well. He ha s o th er qualifications, in our opinion, nearly as necessary for the place he is about to fill. Our Colonial Empire has spread of late years to an enormous extent, and it is ye ar ly i ncreas ing. It is as impossible to govern it on the poco curante system—on the system which would have its rights and its wrongs to be settled or unsettled by Colo nial-office clerks, while the Secretary was sitting down nightly amid loud and prolonged cheering from the house, after brilliant speeches on the merits of the war—as it is to govern it on the plan which would jealously arrogate all power and every measure in the colonies to the mother country— which would rule Australia at the other side of the world as if those magnificent colonies were a Channel island, and treat the adult strength of Canada as if she were a babe in leading-strings. Mr. Labouchero has experience, and has shown sagacity and ability enough to be free from these fatal errors. He has tenacity and ability enough to fix steadily on the hard work that has to be done by the Colonial Secretary of State. We trust that he will adhere to what seems the great rule of the present Government, and do the business of his place well and thoroughly, with tact .and temper, in spite of all extraneous excitement. Some surprise Las been expressed, some sneers have been vented, at the charge that Mr. Labou chere is a Whig, and that Lord Palmerston has been forced to fall back on the Whig party to form his Ministry. For our own parts, we thought that the last of that once famous body had ceased to recognise any particular principles which held it together. The Tories have suffered the same fate —the Protectionists have fared no , better—the Peelites have faded into the Peace Party. The world of England is divided into two great bodies —those who uphold constitutional order and the greatness of the country ; and those who long for insignificance. Among though it involve a fall to Among the former—from Whigs, Peelites, lor Tories—Lord Palmerston has sought his men. The latter he avoids, and faces sternly and uncom promisingly. (From the Morning Advertiser of tkis day.) We yesterday announced, and repeat the an nouncement to-day, that an Alien Bill for the ex pulsion of political refugees from our shores, is to be brought into Parliament next session. There can be no doubt of the accuracy of our information. It comes to us from various quarters, all of them of undoubted authenticity. It is something to be made aware of the designs of Ministers so early. The country is thus forewarned. It will be its own fault it it do not turn its information to account. It will have itself to blame if it lose a moment in forearming itself. If ever there was an announce ment which ought to arouse the people of England to a sense of their obligations to themselves, to others, and to the cause of liberty, that announce ment is the one just made. If the contemplated measure be carried, then "Farewell, a long farewell," to the freedom of England. Let Ministers but succeed in that des potic and daring attempt to destroy a right which is one of the greatest glories of our Constitution, and the next exhibition of their designs on the liberties of the com: , try will be in the shape of an effort to annihilate the freedom of the Press: The freedom of the Press is the greatest eye-sore to all despotic Governments, just because it is the only remaining safeguard for the liberties of the people ; for the House of Commons has entirely ceased to act as a barrier to the aggressions of Governments on popular rights. So far as that body are con cerned, the most sacred parts of the Constitution may be invaded and destroyed at any time. But for the Press of this country we had long before now been consigned over to the tender mercies of a system scarcely leas despotic than that which exists on the Continent. The country cannot feel a suffi ciently deep sense of its obligations to a free and fear less, an honest and independent Press. But that in valuable institution, that mighty barrier against the flowing tido of despotism in England, is now in im minent peril. We repeat, that if the right of asylum to political refugees from other lands is to be abo lished, the freedom of the Press will as surely fol low as the darkness of night succeeds the light of day. _ _ it is, therefore, of the utmost importance that the people of England should at once rise up in all their might and majesty to confront any Govern ment, no matter who may be its head, or of whom it is composed, that will venture to bring forward a measure which is not only in violation of the Con stitution, but which would prove both degrading to the national character and utterly destructive of the liberties of the country. If ever there was an occasion when all those minor diversities of opi nion which exist among the friends of the popular cause, ought to be buried in the dust, and a grand national organisation be entered into with a view to vindicate a great principle. and resist a daring aggression on one of the most valuable of English rights—that occasion is the present. Happily, we are on the eve of a dissolution of Parliament, and, therefore, the members of the House of Commons afe just now particularly accessible to popular in fluences. Let meetings be everywhere held for the purpose of denouncing, in the strongest and loud est terms, the contemplated despotic measure, and calling on all those representatives who have been returned by Liberal constituencies, to give a so lemn pledge that they will, by every means in their power, endeavour to defeat the measure. The city of London ought to set the example ; but if it fails in its duty, then let Marylebone, Westminster, or some other metropolitan borough, take the lead. Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Glasgow, and all the other great towns will forthwith follow, and we shall, before many weeks have elapsed, witness such an expression of public feeling on the subject, as will deter the Palmerston Government from carrying their intention into effect.

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY OF BOOKS.— Winia77l. Cros3, a man of short stature, about 50 years of age, was charged before Mr. Broughton, on suspicion of having stolen a large quantity of books from schools, news papers from coffee-shops, &o. Edward Breekly, S 379, said that about five o'clock last evening he was on duty in Camden Town, when he was called by Mr. Cattle, pawnbroker, and who stated to him that the prisoner had offered a book for pledge which he believed had been stolen. Witness, in conse quence of the prisoner not letting him know where he got it from, took him into custody. He never said a word all the way to the station-house. He was there searched, when a Dispatch, and an illustrated Nem of Sunday last, each of which were smeared with coffee, were found in his pocket. (These were produced, as was also the book, which was a splendid edition of " Naomi, or the last days of Jerusalem," published by Hall and Virtue, Paternoster-row.) Witness asked the prisoner where he lived, when he gave the direction, No. ISi, Torriana-grove, Camden Town. Witness went there and found the prisoner's wife, who was in care of the house, which is to be let. He made a search and disco vered 50 duplicates relating to about 150 volumes, some of which witness believed to be valuable works, which have been pledged at various pawnbrokers. (The dupli cates were produced, and they showed that the prisoner had realised a large amount of money.) In answer to the magistrate the policeman stated that ho had not been able since the apprehension of the pri soner to go to the pawnbrokers, but that there were several persons present who had been robbed of books, and who had seen them at the pawnbrokers'. There were among them a gentleman living at Hampstead, two ladies who have an educational establishment at Isiington, &c. The policeman further added that the prisoner was in the habit of obtaining circulars from schools, which he used to make use of by going to the several establishments under the pretence of recommend. ing a scholar, when he took the opportunity of stealing as many books as he could lay hold of. The prisoner was remanded. TRH FATAL EXPLOSION AT ST. GIIORCIR'S-IN. THE EAST.—Yesterday morning, Mr. Wm. Baker, the coro ner, resumed the inquiry at the London Hospital on the bodies of the five men who were killed by the explosion of a boiler at Messrs. Hall and Boyd's, the sugar re finers, St. George's-in-the-East. After some further evidence, the jury returned a verdict of " Accidental death." LONDON MODEL LODGING-110IIMES. —The monthly re port of the Society for Improving the Condition of the Labouring Classes states that the Metropolitan Lodging houses aro in a satisfactory condition. The average number of each is as follows :—ln tho George street house, 100, in the H a tton-garden-house, 53, weekly in mates. In the Charles-street, 78, and the King-street, 21, Lightly inmates. The family houses in Streatham street Model-buildings and Portpool-lane are all full. In Wild-court there are only five empty rooms out of 108. Fortivol-lane there are 65 1=405 occupying 67 room. (Prom the Morning Poe of this day.) The appointment of Mr. Labouchere as Colonial Secretary of State is an evidence that the duties of that important post are better understood and appre ciated than they were some 20 years since, or even nearer the present day. Lord Palmerston might, no doubt, have chosen a more eloquent man than the former President of the Board of Trade—he might have fixed on one with more showy qualifi cations—on one whose name would have filled more satisfactorily the ears of the multitude ; but he would hardly have found a Secretary of more ster ling honesty, one on whose principles and conduct the public could more fairly depend —one whose powers of labour were better fitted to the vast work of the office that he undertakes. It is singular how little public attention is directed to this last important quality. The world hears that Sir William Moles worth, whose hereditarily delicate constitution sank beneath the arduous work of his place, is suc ceeded by Mr. Labouchere, and it asks not what is his power of application to the eager claims of the fifty colonies which are cast on his hands—noht what is his ability to go justly and fairly through the tortuous and angry quarrels of these difficult. dependencies with the mother country and with themselves—not how far he is able . to . decide . the measure of interference to be exercised in Sierra Leone, and the extent of protection to be shown to Australia and to Canada. These a re m a tters which the public, in its present state of warlike ardour, thinks little of—all it asks orcares for is, what does the Colonial Secretary tiunli about the war BAST PORTS. We had occasion a short time ago to notice the satis factory condition of the export trade of the north-east coalpits, as shown by the Custom-house returns, pub lished in Brown's Export Lid: The returns for October are equally favourable.

LOCOMOTIVE ENGINI.—A new locomotive engine has a few private just been built b y parties, which contains improvements materially affecting the safety, economy, and efficiency of engines ; and there Is no doubt the principle adopted will be of general application. The centre of gravity is much lower than can be made by any other plan, whilst any optional diameter of wheels may be applied. The greatest possible tractive adhesion on the rails is obtained by having the four extreme wheels, which bear the weight, connected with the power. This arrangement prevents bnoyaney, or ten: dency to "mount the rail," and also preserves theZ e gine in the best condition for all kinds of worlc.. s :_t„ tendency to oscillate, or to cause a rocky motio n r b l ich • is . tralised by the method of applying the powe r , so direct as to prevent any angular straig o n ugh i ß g e d w et ts ri i mental to the durability of engines ; An d t thirds, yet the motive of like power, is only 0 0 . weight on the rails, as oompared wtithtwthoe. about o l i a oder is of an unusually effective weight is greater.
