The prospects of the sue. cess of the Liberal cause—the cause, in this instance. of freedom and purity of election—are hourly increasing. The recent decisions of Election Committees hail alarmed the Tories, and they have not employed any messengers or colourmen. bribery in this form having ceased, the parties who have been accustomed to look for this kind of " consideration" for their votes are hang , ing back, and many of them have declared openly their intention to vote for Lord Nugent and Air. Thompson, unless they receive an equivalent for' the loss of their customary employment at elections. The popular feel ing is very strong in favour of the Liberal candidates, and a decided re-action appears to be taking place. No thing can prevent the return of the Liberals but the most gross bribery, and this will probably be put in practice on the night of Sunday, the day preceding the A meeting will be hell this evening at Andrews Bazaar, at which Lord Nut„rent and Air. Thompsou . will be present. There is no treating going on, at least there 1.01.1 me. openly. No public-houses and beer-shops are open, but the Tories will only resort more extensively to direr bribery on this account, shOuld there appear a chance of their winning the seats by such means. An immense number of the inhabitants of St. Mary's. the .Liberal Ward, assembled in St. Mar]-'s-street, last night, to listen for addresses which it was announced the candidates would'deliver from the balcoily of a- house it/ that street. _ _ ENERAL STEAM NAVIGATION COM PANY, Incorporated by Act of Parliament, 69, Lom .Pitest.-street, London.

Queen .street, May 26. REMARKS OF THE EDITOR OF THE "NORFOLK CHRONICLE," ON VIEWING THE PREMISES AFTER THE FIRE:— " About half-past one o'clock on Wednesday morning overe the premises of Mr. Butcher , grocer, Bank-plain, were disd 1 0 be on fire by the night watch, who gave the alarm and called Mr. Butcher up. It was at first difficult to discover in the dark what part of the premises was on fire. Mr. Butcher thought that it originated at his neighbour's house, hut going up to the top of his premises be perceived where it was ; when he came down and opened the door of his s tore-room over the hack part of his shop, the fire and smoke but st forth so violently that he could scarcely Stand on his feet. It appears that the fire bad originated in this store-room directly over a paper loft, but how, it is impossible to tell. Mr. Shalders, from over the /ray, immediately brought two of his engines, by means of Which Mr. Butcher attributes his house bein save ; and per haps the whole street, for there being a good al of gun powder en the premises, had this ignited the co nsequences would have been awful. No twithstanding the natural agita Co n occasioned by the near prospect of danger from fire. Mr. , Butcher himself removed the gunpowder from the premises, and most of the goods from the warehouse and shop were brought out and deposited for safety in St. Michael's at Plea Church. he engine from the Guildhall was on the spot within a few minutes of the first alarm being given, but it was impossible to bring this into b p ut in the lay for some time, hile as .th e w a ter was not turn ed on ; meanw 3lr. Shalders' engines (Mr. S. working one and his brother elle other) were supplied with buckets full of water from Ate.pump near at hand. Mr. M. Yarington and his men acted `e.;th much energy and promptitude. Mr. Steel, Mr. Plummer, Mr. Shalders, and others of Mr. Butcher's neighbours, were most sealous in their services. In about an hour and a half all dange r was removed. Mr. Butcher is, we understand, insured is the !Norwich Equitable Office. IThe ,o.elay which appears to have occurred in furnishing the engines %vial water on the above alarming occasion. impera ively derasnds the immediate attention of the proper authori ties, If the New Fills Company's works are the main public &wee of s upady. some arrangements should be made for the eipre sure and speedy turning on the water into the pipes ; er the city will sooner or later rue the consequences. I BY THE EDITOR OF THE " NORWICH MERCURY." On Wednesday morning, about half -past ono o'clock, a fire was discovered in the house of Mr. Butcher, grocer, Bank plain, by the watchman on duty. Mr. immedi t el y rr o e, and after examining hi premises found it B. had taken place i a store-room situated over the warehouse. On the alarm being ,given Mr. Shalders at . e nded with his patent fountain sngtnes, :and after great exertions the fire was extinguished bef ore so they serious consequences ha d taken place. Ther is slightest doubt that this fire would have been attended with a great loss had it not been for the fountain pump, and it was entirely by that and tho exertions of Mr. Shalders that the fire was so promptly extingui-hed, it being an hour and ten minutes before the engines could be got into play ; and at the time the fire was discovered the whole store-room was in flames, for on Air. Butcher opening the door he was twice knocked d ,wn b , the smoke and ilan,ea. but fortunately received no injury.

Third Edition. ---- • ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. HOME ClRCUlT—Guildford, August G. TODD AND ANOTHER V. ERMA'. This cause was disposed of on Thursday, before Lord Abinger and a Common Jury, the circumstances con nected with it being of rather a singular character. The plaintiffs are wine merchants in London, and the defend ant was one of the managing committee of the Alliance Club, which was dissolved two or three years ago ; and the action was brought to recover a sum of 1941. due for wine furnished to the Club, from the defendant, as one of the committee. The case has been tried three times before, and on each occasion the plaintiff obtained a ver dict. Upon the last trial a gentleman named Stuart, a barrister, who had been a member of the Club, was pro duced as a witness by the plaintiffs,.and upon an'objec• tion to the admissibility of his testimony by Mr. The. siger, for the defendant, on the ground of his being an interested party, the plaintiffs' solicitor handed him a release. Mr. Thesiger, upon this claimed a right to put a plea to this effeet upon the record, but the Learned Judge who tried the case thought it was not competent for him to do so, and the trial went on, and ended again in a verdict for the plaintiffs. An application upon this was made for a new trial, when the Court held that leave should have been given to place the plea upon the record, • and a new trial was therefore granted, which now came on for hearing. Mr. Thesiger was for the defendant, and Mr. Platt for the plaintiff Mr. THESIGER, for the defendant, explained the cir cumstances above detailed to the Jury, and said that it would be now for him to prove the plea that a release had been granted to Mr. Stuart. lle .said he should have to call Mr. Stuart, who, as they might imagine, was not a very friendly witness; but still he trusted he should he able to make out the plea to their satisfaction. Mr. C. Stuart was then. called.—lTe deposed that he was a barrister, and resided in Paper-buildings, Temple. Lle remembered being called as a witness, and that a release from liability as a member of the Club was given to him by the plaintiff's attorney. Mr. TitEsIGER--What has become of that release ? Witness—l tore off the seals and cancelled it, and it is not now in my possession. Lord ARINGER—Had you any communication with the plaintiffs' attorney before you cancelled the release ? Witness—l had, but that was not the reason I cancelled it ; I had intended to cancel it. Lord ABINGER—Were you aware at the time yon so cancelled it, that there was a plea upon the record in volving the question as to the existence of this release, and that it would be material evidence in reference to that plea ? Witness—l was aware of that circumstance. Lord ABINGER—WeII, I think if I had been a profes sional man, and knew that the document in my posses sion was material evidence in reference to a pica upon a pending action, I should not have cancelled the docuinent. Mr. PLATT expressed his opinion that the proceeding was warranted by the course adopted by the defendant to defeat the plaintiffs' just claim. Mr. THEsroEn applied to have the facts taken upon his Lordship's note, in order that an application might be made to the Court above upon the subject. Lord ABINGER said he should state upon his note that it appeared that the release could not be proved. inasmuch as it appeared that the document had been cancelled for the purpose of defecting the defendant's plea. The Learned Judge again said, that if he had been a professional man placed in such a position, he should most certainly not have taken such a step as to conceal a document which he knew was made the sub ject of special plea in a pending action. Mr. PLATT.—My Lord, I think I should have done the same thing under the circumstances, and considering the endeavours that have been made to defeat the claim of the plaintiffi. Mr. THESIGER.—Permit me then to say that I should not. A verdict for the plaintiff for 194/. was then returned, the defen.iant's Counsel having liberty to apply to the Court for a new trial, or in any other shape that might be warranted upon the particular facts that had been woved. ---- POLIcE SATURDAYINTELLIGENCE.

He saw the acceptor offer the notary's clerk two 51. notes, 451. in sovereigns, and the rest in silver. The notary's clerk then began to weigh the sovereigns in one of the cheap common weighing maehines which were not recegnised by the Mint, and refused to take any but those which plumped down the machine. The consequence was, that two-thirds of the sovereigns were declared by the clerk not to be of sufficient weight, and rejected. Witness took the sovereigns to his banker, who, upon casting his eye upon them, said it was unnecessary to weigh them.

GUILDHALL. DESIGN COPYRIGHT ACT.—On Saturday Guildhall Police-chamber was crowded to hear the details of a complaint that had been preferred against Mr. George Johnson, an extensive carpet dealer, of No. 4; Bow-lane, Cheapside. Mr. Clarkson, the barrister, and a gentleman from the office of Messrs. Allen and Nicholl, solicitors, of Queen street, Cheapside, appeared to support the complaint, and Mr. Jones, of Size-lane, on the part of Mr. Johnson. Mr. Clarkson, observed that Mr. Johnson, the de fendant, was the agent of Messrs. Platt and Son, carpet-manufacturers, of Barnard Castle, Durham, and the complainants were the Messrs. Kiplings, of Darlington, in the same county, and the present inquiry had been instituted through the means of Mr. Rothery, their agent in London. In the year 1839, the 2ndlVic toria, chap. 17, was passed, and by that statute it was enacted that due protection should be extended towards proprietors of original designs, who should register them at the proper office, and leave a certificate of such re gistry, which should be deemed and taken as evidence of of the originality •of the design before a Magistrate, until the contrary should be proved. The same Act im posed heavy penalties ion pet sons using such registered designs, unless by the consent of the proprietor, and the third section of the statute provided that certain penal ties should be inflicted upon any person who should sell or expose for sale an imitation of such registered designs, he or they knowing that the proprietor thereof had not given his consent thereto. The certificate of the registry bore a copy of the .design, the date of it, and the name of the proprietor, and the law likewise enforced the necessity of a manu facturer • endorsing upon his carpets the number of the registered &sign and date of register, and his own name. In the present instance the complainants had complied with the various provisions of the Act of Parliament, and the carpet was registered on the 15th of March of this year. The defendants, however, made a very clumsy at tempt to imitate the original design, and thereby sought to evade the law. The Learned Counsel produced the original design and the defendant's imitation, and pointed out the slight alterations that had been made. Another infringement of the act was that the peculiar texture of Messrs. Kipling's carpets was unknown up to March last, but since then the defendant had imitated the textureos well as the pattern and colour. He should show that the defendant had a guilty knowledge of the carpet sold by him being an imitation, and he should put in the certifi cate of the registry to support his complaint. Alderman WOOD said that as there was a distinction between the. carpets, the better course probably to pur sue would be to express no opinion, but refuse to convict, and leave Mr. Clarkson to obtaia a mandamus against them to compel them to act. Mr. Clarkson reminded the Bench, that he could not compel them to convict, but only to hear the case.' Aldermen 'Wool) observed that the Magistrates would first hear the Learned Counsel on the point of the imi tation of the original design, and then, if they were against him, they would refuse to hear the case, to en able him to obtain the opinion of a superior Court. Mr. Clarkson was perfectly satisfied, as the ease was one of immense importance to the commercial world, and the present complaint was not brought forward out of any vindictive feeling, but to put a stop to a growing and far-spreading evil. A lengthy discussion then took place between Mr. Clarkson and Mr. Jones, the former contending that al though some of the figures on the carpet were not new, yet the combination of them was so, and the certificate of registry proved that fact. Mr. Jones, on the other hand, insisted that the carpet belonging to Mr. Johnson was not an imitation of Messrs. Kipling's, but merely contained scrolls, numerous fig- oil-clothsleaes: timed before the passing of th e A ct re ferred to by Mr. Clarkson. He submitted th a t i t was a new, and not an original design, that Messrs. Ki p li ng had produced, and and diamonds,and carpets, which o c u o r be found incould therefore it was not entitled to the protection of the statute. Mr. Clarkson, in reply, remarked that the Act of Par liament was intended to protect manufacturers who were at the expense of employing draughtsmen for the sole purpose of making new designs. If an original combi nation of old figures formed i nto a new pattern was not an original design, he did not know what would con stitute one. Mr. Alderman FAREBROTHER asked Mr. Jones if he could prove that his client's carpet was manufactured previous to Messrs. Kipling's. Air. Clarkson—Aye, let them prove that, and I will confess myself beaten. Mr. Jones said he could not do that, but he would show that many of the figures were not original. (He here produced a number of pattern s ). Mr. Clarkson observed that the statute enacted that it was sufficient to prove the originality of a design to pro duce the certificate of registry to the Magistrates, and it was for the opposite party to give contrary evidence. Mr. Alderman Woon thought that this was similar to a piracy of music. Nearly the same notes might be used, but the combination of sounds produced would be very different. The question was whether Messrs. Kiplings carpet as a whole was, or was not, an original design. They had no right to look to any particular square or figure of the pattern, and decide alone upon that. The Aldermen decided that the carpet sold by Mr. Johnson was an imitation. Mr. Joseph Rothery, agent to Messrs. Kipling, then proved that he registered the design of the carpet pro duced on the 15th of March. 184 0 . Mr. William Eyre proved that he was a carpet-dealer in Citeapside, and purchased a roll of carpet of Mr. Johnson, and the second piece produced, and called the imitation of Messrs. Kipling, was cut off the roll. The piece was a penny per yard cheaper than • Messrs. Kipling's. The Aldermen were about to give their opinion, when when the prisoner took an objection to their jurisdiction. The Act stated that the summons should be left at the de fendant's " place of abode , " an d he had been served by its being left at his warehouse in B ow - lane. George Thomas Johnson , th e def endant's son, proved that his father resided at No. 14, A r till e ry-place, Finsbury-square,. which is in Middlesex, and that no person slept in Bow - lane. Mr. Clarkson—The cas e now assume s this shape, that after a most unworthy at tem p t on the p ar t of a tradesman u ise resorts to the miserable shelter o f a le g al techn icality to harass myself, however, to imitate a brother tr e a n d l e t s is mhe shall la n l m ' s goods, o availuu t of penalties to be and oint. fi his annoy ne perseverance e o cr y os em t N n ee y sr au c clients. sh. consideration. The Aldermen finally postponed their decision un Monday next. 1301;'-STREE7.

Police-constable No [lO3 of the C division, stated that the prisoner's extremely. violent conduct caused a great crowd of persons to assemble, whereby - the thoroughfare of the street was greatly obstructed. The wife of the defendant was anxiously intreating him to go homawith her in a peace able manner, when he suddenly turned round upon her, and with his clenched fist, struck her two blows on the side of her head, with all his might; but for one of the by-standers catching her in his arms, she must have fallen in the carriage-way, with an infant about eighteen months old she had in her arms at the time. He was proceeding to further ill-treat her, when witness seized and secured him. He was at the time infuriated by passion and the effects of liquor. Mr. MALTBY asked if the wife intended to prefer a charge against him ? Inspector Plume of the C division, said she was wait ing outside the Court, but be believed that it was not her intention to do so. At the station-house she refused to give charge of him, as he threatened "to pay her" when he got his liberty, and she stated that he would ill-use her the more afterwards. - Mr. MALTBY ordered that she should be brought into Court. Mrs. Peavee consequently appeared, and from the man ner in which she answered the Diajestrate's questions, it was plain that her affe - .tion for her husband, coupled with her concern for the welfare of her family had in duced her to forgive him. Mr. MALTBY said it was a pity she had not got a hus band more deserving of her affection. But for her sake he (the Worthy Magistrate) should have imposed a very heavy fine upon him. As It was he must pay a fine of ss. for being drunk. The wife said he had been ouCof employment for six months, and had only just got into work. Mr. Fitz patrick (the Chief Clerk) said that perhaps imposing the fine would only be punishing the wife and children. He was then discharged, and his wife left the Court with him with her countenance beaming with joy. CLERKEN WELL. Joseph Vecchio, an Italian, was charged with embezzling various sums of money, the property of his employer, Andrea Mullinora, looking-glass manufacturer, Leather- Lne, Holborn. The prisoner was travelling clerk to the company, and had from time to time failed in accounting for the prices of glasses delivered by him. On Wednesday week he delivered a small one, value 31., and his master having expressed his intention to settle his accounts, the prisoner did not return, nor send back the money. Police con stable Archer apprehended him last night in Beecham street, Clerkenwell.—He was committed for trial. UNION-HALL. Sarah Chambers, a dashingly-dressed woman of the town, was charged with robbing Mr. Thomas Cam, of Bolton-street, of a watch, chain, and seals, together with a sovereign and a gold pin. The complainant said that he accompanied the pri soner and another woman to a house of accommodation in Jane-place, Cornwall-road. He remained a short _ _ . - time in the room with them, and had scarcely left the house a minute, when he discovered that he had been robbed of the articles above specified: He gave instant information of the robbery to the police, and on going back to the house, the watch was found in the room where he had previously been, but the sovereign and gold pin were still missing. He added that his watch had been placed where it was found after he left the house, as it was not in that situation previously. The prisoner, who asseverated her innocence of the charge, was remanded. William Johnson, rin optician, was charged with com mitting an assault on Margaret Fenwick, to whom he was about to be married. The complainant, an interesting looking young female, said that the defendant had been paying his addresses to her for some time, and they were going to be married to morrow. That he came to her father's house on the previous night, and in consequence of her having dis agreed with him about her wedding, dress, he immedi at,tly struck her a violent blow and blackened both her eyes. She added, that after such brutal conduct she had discarded him. The Magistrate inflicted a fine of 20s. on the defen dant, and congratulated the young woman on her escape from a matrimonial alliance with such a fellow. QUEEN-SQUARE. - - IMPORTANT DECISION TO LICENSED VICTUALLERS —FALSELY QUALIFYING BEER-SHOP KEEPERS. A case of the utmost importance to the trade, and one which has never before been tried, was brought before Mr. Gregorie for adjudication. James Palmer, the keeper of a beer-shop in Upper Garden-street, in Vauxhall-bridge-road, was charged on Saturday that lie unlawfully did, for the purpose of obtaining a license to retail beer, produce and make use of the certificate of Mr. Adam Dick, an overseer of the parish, knowing the matters certified therein, some or one of them, to be false. Mr. Duncombe, Solicitor to the Licensed Victualler? Protection Society, conducted the prosecution. Defendant, in reply to the charge, said that the per sons who had brought this against him were a Society who'tried to crush beer-shops. He had done nobody any wrong, and had forged nobody's name. Mr. G REGORIE could not give witness much credit for his observation. Mr. buncombe represented a large and confidential body of mm whose interests were much affected by the beer-sellers, and it could be a matter of neither complaint nor surprise that they should defend their own. This case, in his opinion, was most distinctly and carefully made out; nothing which could strengthen it had been omitted by the solicitor who had given it his utmost attention, and it was clear by the evidence that defendant was not rated at all. At the time he obtained and presented the certificate, Mr. Dick had been denied by the tax-gatherer, and was not to blame, but the tax gatherer certainly was. He had no doubt about the matter, and could make but little excuse for his conduct. He (Mr. Gregorie) could see no reason for inflicting any _ thing less than the penalty of 501. Mr. buncombe interposed. • The' Chairman of the Licensed Victualler? Protection Society, who was at his side, prayed the Magistrate to extend his leniency to de fendant. He begged to urge it upon .tlie Magistrate most respectfully, but at the sanwiline to show beer-shop keepers that they would be strictly looked after. Mr. GREGORIE said it did the society credit in asking for mitigation. At their request he would reduce the penalty to ICI, and costs. By this decision, defendant loses his license at the moment, and is never after eligible to keep a beer-shop. FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE LIVERPOOL. AND MAN CHESTER RAILWAY.—OR Thursday afternoon an acci dent occurred in the tunnel used by the passengers at the Liverpool terminus of the line. The quarter to five o'clock train, from Liverpool to Manchester, had started with its usual punctuality, .and owing to one of the sheets on the top of the carriages not being properly secured, a porter named Connor, in the Company's ser vi?e, remained on the top of one of the carriages for the purpose.of adjusting it. Before he had finished his job the train was in full motion, but unfortunately, and, as it is to be hoped, contrary to his instructions, he At tempted to descend, and jumping from the coach, came with great force against one of the carriages of a sowed class train from Manchester, descending the decline on the opposite line. He was thrown under the wheels of the second carriAge, which passed over his body, as well as did the wheels of the remainder of the train. On(: the carriages was thrown off the line without occasion ing any mischief further than the stopping of the train On assistance being procured, Connor was found lying on the rails quite dead. His body was dreadfully muti lated. His remains were placed ofi a shutter and con veyed to Lime-street station to await the Coroner's in quest. The unfortunate (loomed evidently met his death through his own carelessness. His melancholy end will no doubt be looked upon as a serious warning to all those employed on or connected with railways. BUYING A HORSE ron A CT i afiym_kili.,—.-At mak sham fair on Wednesday, a countryman was looking at some horses which were exhibiting for sale, when a gen tleman in clerical attire, and representing himself to be such, applied to him to purchase a particular anim a l which he pointed out, saying that as a clergynian he did not like to be seen in such engagements, at the same time telling him he would giie him a sovereign for bis trouble. The trick took--the young man, " nothißg green," paid 131. 15s. for a horse not worth 4/4„ which being done, the clergyman was v i ot to be found, and the purchaser had to taike bargain to himself with all faults,"—sl4fr&orae Journal. • We have this week had the opportunity of making personal inquiries in the towns of Bradford, Hudders field, and Halifax, as to the state of trade. In all of them we find the retail trades 'TKEFSSiveIy depressed, dfording indubitable evidence that the bulk of the popu lation is suffering great distress and privation, either from the want of work or from inadequate remune ration. Money is very scarce, and we are assured that the retail tradesmen find it exceedingly diffi cult to obtain the payment of their accounts from their customers, even of the respectable class. The amount of money taken in the shops has fallen off to a very great extent ; and it is certain that the consump tion of all commodities (with scarcely an exception) ranking as necessaries, comforts, or luxuries, is most seriously diminished. The accounts we received as to the state of the great branches of manufacture varied according to the actual experience of the parties giving them. Many assured us that they saw no improvement. But at greater number expressed a belief that trade was beginning to mend. In Bradford there is great activity in the manufacture of figured goods ; some makers can not produce enough to answer the demand ; but there is very little doing in the plain worsted stuffs which for merly constituted the bulk of the trade. These figures are of a remarkable variety both as to material and pattern ; most of them have cotton warps, which in some cases are printed before they are woven, and the weft is of Alpaca wool, goats' hair, or other ma terial. Worsted yarn, made of English wool, is com paratively little used, and in consequence the de- • mand has greatly fallen off, especially for that kind used for warps, namely, the hog wool, which has fallen in price compared with the wether wool used for wefts. The ingenuity of the manufacturers is ever on the stretch to devise new and attractive styles of goods, and changes are made so rapidly that a person who should go out of the trade for a )•ear or two and then return, would hardly know his business. Some of these new styles are remarkably successful, and have a great run ; the makers get large profits ; but. very shortly they are imitated by other manufacturers, and fre quently the quality is deteriorated in order to reduce • tfie price ; and in process of time the profits of . the ma nufacturer are so far diminished that he abandons that kind of work and betakes himself to some new design. Thus competition is ever stimulating industry, and imitators are continually chasing inventors, so as to keep the, trade in a state of perpetual change. This amazing fertility of invention is a chief means of main taining • our foreign trade ; for our rivals in other countries have neither the capital, the machinery, nor the enterprise to keep up with these incessant changes and improvements. In plain goods we are frequently beaten and undersold ; but when our trade seems to be ruined, it suddenly assumes a new form and regains its activity. These changes, however, are attended with considerable loss both on machinery and on stocks of goOds, which is a drawback on their advantages. 1 In Huddersfield the woollen manufacture is much de pressed, but there is an improvement in the departments of fancy waiscoatings and also of fancy woollens. The .1 manufacturers of these goods in the villages are well em ployed, but the wages are exceedingly low. The Hud dersfield market on Tuesday exhibited considerable im provement ; and this town has suffered' less than most others from the bad times.—Leeds Mercury. STATE OF TRADF. ENGLISH WOOL MARKET, LEEDS, AUG. s.—This branch of trade remains in about the same state as for the last two or three weeks. There is a better supply of new wools than a month ago ; th e manufacturers buy cautiously and sparingly to supply their current require ments. Prices are quoted the same as last week. FOREIGN WOOL TRADE, LEEDS, Atro. s.—We have had many buyers in the market this week, who, in con sequence no doubt of the present prospects of a good harvest, have purchased pretty freely. Prices are very firm, and no fears arc now entertained of their being any lower. HULL WOOL MARKET.—On Tuesday there was a short supply, nearly the whole of which was sold at rather lower prices, averaging about 10d. per lb. DUBLIN WOOL MARKET, AUG. 3.—Our market has been thinly supplied with wools this week again, and all has been bought up freely at the usual prices. The weather for the last fortnight has been all that we could desire, and this causes the farmer to be more indepen dent. Although our accounts from the manufacturing districts in England, and those of France are alike gloomy, we are sorry to add, that there is -now no ex pectation of growers and holders of wool submitting to lower prices till compelled by necessity. All wethers sell for 15s. and all hogg for 16s. TRADE OF LEEDS.-:-- - iVe have nothing cheering to re port of the state of our cloth markets this week. The markets at both Halls have been quite as dull as for some months past, more particularly for fine and middle qualities of cloths. The present demand is principally confined to low priced beavers, pilot cloths, and fancy cloakings. The stocks of goods generally are not large, and prices generally are without alteration. Business still continues very dull in the warehouses, although a little better than it has been during the last few weeks. TRADE OF BOLIKFIRTO.—The clothiers in this district report very unfavourably of the market on Tuesday, and there arc no symptoms of improvement yet appa rent in the manufacturing departments. ' BRADFORD MARKET, THURSDAY.---The continued flee weather, and the prospect of an auspicious harvest, have evidently tended to cheer the minds of our merchants, who appear to be actuated with the impression that the autumn trade will be fully an average, and are purchasing more freely, and the piece market is only barely sup plied with Orleans cloths, Parisian figures, and other fancy articles, which are ready sale, and late prices fay maintained.. We learn that more inquiries are macie for yarns, likewise more sales effected than for some weeks past ; yet we cannot hear of any improvement in prices, to induce the spinners to extend their operations. The wool market continues to be well supplied with all kinds of English wools, as also a large quantity of colonist, ' from the auction sales just ended. The spinners stif i continue to purchase very sparingly, and what sa )- es are effected arc at a slight reduction. TRADE OF BARNSLE4.—The lillprOVere g nit in the trade of this town, and respecti ng which there was a current rumour last week, proves to be in. some measure correct. The increase in the manufacture of fancy drills is snore in anticipation of the market, than arising out of positive orders received ; but the ortlers for other branches of the manufactures at this glaceare sensibly in crease d ; an d i t is satisfactory to state, that upwards of sixty families have ceased to depend on the relief fund in consequence. ..........-_ RAILWAY RETURNS.

Their ommenta were so well satisfied with the canvass as to soy they were confident of success, and that. there was northing left for them to do but to express that confidence. Ile believed the meeting were of a different opinion. There was something else to do. They (the Tories) must pur y sue en t h t e o ir f o s l u d cc c e o s u s r .— se ( o C f h b e l e i r b s e . ) r 1; 1\ 7 ' 1 1 h e o t u h Ley h could be e t l e i: 11.1e hear.)

They had put a tax on industry, a tax which would oblige the masters to reduce the wages of the artisan.—(Cheers.) At this moment Lord Nugent arrived and preseina i l himself on the balcony, when he was greeted with ;mid and long-continued cheering. The Noble Lord had just commenced 'his address when G. Thompson, Esq. ; at, rived and came forward. his appearance was the signal_ for renewed cheering, which was continued for some time Lord NUGENT said he would begin with what at ';cie present moment interested those who heard him. peria a ps more than any other subject. lie had all day, as it was his duty. for their common cause, been endeavouring to persuade himself what were the grounds On which that cause stood in Southanipton. He had been all day can vassing, and he now told them that he belieyeel they had a fair chance; and he called on them to go in with him self and his lion. Friend and win. —(Cheers.) He had. been well received, not on his own account, but on ac count of the cause he humbly represented, and 'ate had received cordial promises from persous who be was told had been before afraid of pledging their pro mises to a candidate, fearful of beingxtuushed for doing so. • New he knew that unless th eir antagon i sts b r ib ed grossly, lie and his Honourable Friend must win.— (Loud cheers.) And if they did bribe, let them look. to themselves. There was a Parliament which, if pro voked a third time by Southampton, might be tempted to the strongest measures of :punialiment, and there was a receptacle open .for corruptors called Newgate. He warned the Tories to beware. If they were brought. before the Legislature a third time they tould be sen tenced as incorrigible. To the briber—no quarter would call on his antagonists to make the sane declaration as he would do on Saturda v—he would give his word as a man of honour that he had net er in his life bribed, and that if he found that any friend or agent had done him so much wrong as to offer a voter a bribe on his be half, from that moment he would retire from the cone test.—(Cheers.) Ile would go through this struggle with the assistance of his friend Mr. Thompson, and test whether there were enough honest men within to save the city. If they WOll, the honour of Southampton would tea saved. If they failed, a t least they should have all that was: honourable and incarruptible in Southampton as the partners of their defeat.—(Loud cheering.) GEonon Tnomrsox, Esq., then addressed the as semblage. lie congratulated the friends of independence and purity of election on the. progress of the canvass during the last two days.--4 Cheers.) The reception he had met with throughout the town gave him confidence that within four days they would see the people *fa Southampton rise from the mire into- which they le a d been cast by the enemies of the constitution and the enemies of the popular cause ; and that, inaael a d o f standing before the . eyes of their countrymenand disgraced by the pollution of bribery t.nd suborna tion, time constituency would vindicate their claim to considered pure, patriotic, and independent.

The ho nest grasp of the man in the street who told him he anculd have one hundred votes if he could give them, ccavinced him it was only necessary for a man to plant itimseif on principle, be consistent, and abhor the thing that is base and dishonourable, and the people will honour and sup port him, carry him on to the goal of victory, and plant their laurels on his brow. If he and his uobl© colleague. had nothing else to recommend the to the notice of tfAs costituency, whatever mi g ht be tirlr political views, tl aey would be at least entitled to ilteir conscientious aripro bation for coming forward as they did, to cast theraselves upon their holiest - coraactions and unbought suffrages.

Before he bade theta good night he would say a word .on the prospect before them. • He believed there was not so much tranquillity in the Tory camp as the silence that reigned there would seem to indicate.(Cheera.)

Mr. Walter Mr. Sturge l,BOl Majority DARING HIGHWAY ROBBERY.—____BiaCkheatht ()nee so notorious as the scene of some, of the most dt.-silerate highway robberies, has been for many years freefrom so daring an attack as that made on Thursday night. Mr. Lovegrove, the proprietor of the Crown and Scept re Tavern, Greenwich, and of the York Hotel, Bridge street, Blackfriars, left his house to accompany a rela tive over the heath, about nine o'clock on Thursday evening. He had passed alone. the upper w a ll o f Green wich-park, from th e top of alone. the towards Mont pelier-row, and there parted with his friend. The night. was closing in, and by the time he reached the claw,- ' roads near Vanburgh-fields, it had become so dark Vast he did not perceive two men, who had been follo , ,vine• hies. They carefully watched an opportunity, and: springing from behind, threw him on his back with a violent blow on the head. lie cried out "'murder," which one of the men, in a glazed hat, partly stifled by griping his throat. The other villain ripped up his clothes from top to bottom, dragged a valuable gold watch and guard from his neck (breaking the latter) taking his cravat, and whatever else they could find. Ile had left home without a purse. By this time. fortu nately for him, he had become so insensible that h e made - no h of alarm, and the thieves, h av i ng . securedthe o n t •b e o r otT‘ ' vere content to escape with ou t com - I miffing any further violence.
