For the substance of the following account of the recent visit of the Reynard to Loo-choo we are in debted to a correspondent, who will see that we have taken some liberties with his communication. Her Majesty's screw-sloop Reynard, Commander Cracroft, arrived at Shanghai on Monday, the 14th of October, having left the greater Loo-choo island four days previously. The object of her visit to Loo-choo was t o convey a communication to the authorities from the British Government, respecting the treatment of a medical missionary, J.B. Bettelheim, M.D., fur four years a resident on that island. Dr. Bettelheim is a converted Jew, a native of Hun gary, but a naturalised British subject,* and was sent out as a missionary physician by a committee of naval officers, under the designation of the Loo-choo Mis sionary Society. With great missionary zeal and overflowing good ness of heart, Dr. Bettelheim is somewhat peculi in his views and conduct. Partly on this account, probably, the local authorities of Loo-choo have all along regarded him with distrust, and the little favour which at first he received was altogether with held after the marked disrespect shown to him by Sir Thomas Cochrane during his visit in 1846, when the Admiral declared to the authorities of Loo-choo, who suspected the doctor of having political objects in view, that he did not recognize him as an English man or a British subject. After this the authorities gradually assumed a more inimical aspect, until at length they prevented the otherwise friendly people from holding intercourse with him, latterly even for bidding the sale of provisions, and thus rendering him and his family dependent for subsistence upon the scanty rations daily supplied by the police. Repeated complaints having been made to the British Government it was arranged that a man-of war should occasionally be dispatched to look in upon Dr. Bettelheim at Loo-choo, in order to afford him the countenance of the Government by whom he had been adopted. On the present occasion Captain Cracroft was or dered to touch at Loo-choo on his way to the north, and was instructed to intimate to the authorities that the British Government took an interest in Dr. Bet telheim, and would view with displeasure any attempt to expel him from the island by a system of persecu tion or annoyance. The Reynard anchored in Napa Harbour on the 3d October, and remained a week, during which time two or three interviews were held with the native authorities, both on shore and on board. It was deemed expedient to exclude Dr. Bettelheim from all share in the negotiations, and the Bishop of Victoria, who was on board on his way to the northern ports (assisted in interpretation by his Chinese amanuensis Chun-chung, a Latin as well as a Chinese scholar), is stated to have contributed materially to bring about the good results which it is hoped will follow from the firm yet conciliatory tone adopted. At the first interview, held on the sth October, pretexts were assigned for the absence of the chief' authorities, but Captain Cracroft having partially de livered his instructions, demanded an interview with the Viceroy the next day but one, and it ultimately took place on the fourth day. At this last interview it was deemeed advisable for the officers of the Reynard to appear in full dress, attended by a guard of about 50 men, who were marshalled opposite the guard of the mandarins. The various complaints by Dr. Bet telheim were made the subject of conversation, and explanatory papers were exchanged ; but it was judged better to limit the proceedings as far as pos sible to the delivery of the intimation from the Bri tish Government, inculcating the necessity of better treatment of Dr. Bettelheim, amongst whose com plaints one of the most serious seems to have been an assault on him by some police whilst engaged in his missionary duties. At the termination of the negotiations presents were exchanged, and the Viceroy and other mandarins, in return fur their hospitality, partook of an entertain ment on board the Reynard. She was the first steamer that had been seen there, and though it was evident her arrival had made a considerable impression, her departure was probably regarded with entire satis faction. The appearance of the country about Napa is de scribed as very beautiful; the fields were well culti vated, there is an abundance of wood, and the roads leading to Shuidi, the capital, four miles distant from Napa, are very broad, and have a macadamised ap pearance. The people appear very friendly and well-disposed towards foreigners, and but for political jealousy, Loo•choo might possibly become a place of much re sort and traffic. We learn from some of the parties present on the occasion above mentioned, as a proof of the dread the people have of the Government, that the public slaves or coolies could not be induced to accept the dollars offered them even secretly in pay ment for their services as chair-bearers and porters ; such being the course invariably inculcated by the Japanese towards foreigners. Loo•choo is stated to have been raised to the dignity of a kingdom by one of the Chinese Em perors of the Ming dynasty, from 300 to 400 years ago, during a war between China and Japan, when the former sought to detach it from the interest of the latter. In token of vassalage, a biennial ship is dispatched with tribute to Fuh-chau, the capital of Fokien province, to which place the Loo-chooan scholars resort for education, the Chinese being the polite language of the country ; but the commonly spoken language, the physiog nomy, customs, and habits of the Loo•chooans, are decidedly Japanese, and the influence of the Japan Cabinet directs all the official appointments of the local government. It was probably the first instance that has occurred for centuries, when recently, as we are informed, the Japanese authorities at Loo-choo co-operated with the Chinese Government, so as to induce Seu, the Imperial Commissioner, to urge her Britannic Majesty's Plenipotentiary to remove Dr. Bettelheim by force. The people generally are agriculturists, living principally on pulse and sweet potatoes. There are a few horses and buffaloes on the island, which is about 50 miles long by 20 wide. The people, though outwardly free from the appearance of destitution, are said, nevertheless, to be sunk in the lowest poverty. The Government, as proprietors as well as feudal lords of the soil, appropriate to them selves about one-half of the produce, which is die tributed for the support of the officers and literati, who, as the dominant class, live a life of in dolent affluence, and form about one-fifth of the whole population. The hair is worn in a peculiar tuft on the head, fastened by two pins, which are of silver in the higher orders and of brass in the lower class. A simple robe of coarse grass cloth, fastened by a girdle, is the dress usually worn. Whatever object the British Government had in view in thus throwing the shield of its protection over one of its adopted sons, it may be doubted whe ther the ends of the Christian mission will be perma nently advanced by such intervention. Indeed, we understand that the Bishop of Victoria, who has now had personal opportunities of learning the true state of affairs, entertains grave doubts as to the propriety of the mission being continued under so many adverse circumstances. Dr. Bettelheim is supported by a body of naval philanthropists, to whom alone he is responsibl e ; st ill, t h e adv i ce and opinion of the Bishop will doubtless have considerable weight with them. * It is of course on the ground of his being a British subject, that our Government now interferes in his be half. How he, a Hungarian born, became entitled to claim the privilege, we do not know certainly, but pre sume that, as he was a sailor in his youth, he may have served on board a British ship of war, and thus become naturalised under the provisions of the Act 6 Geo. IV cap. 109, sect. 16, 17. A brilliant and crowded audience, to witness the second deb/it of Madlle. Duprez, proved incontestably the powerful impression the charming young vocalist has created in the public mind. Her second part was Adina, in that prettiests of Donizetti's rustic operas, .L'Elisir if Amore, in which she displayed the same elegance of execution, and, what we prize much more, the same sweet musical feeling that pervaded her singing in Lucia. Adina, of coarse, bears no comparison in point of interest with her former part, but the music is peculiarly adapted to the brilliant style of embellish.. ment which Madlle. Duprez introduces with such a delightful effect, and, mingled with the coquetry of the village beauty, there is a sentiment of tender ness which make her one of the most charming of Adinas we have ever seen. Needless to add that she was applauded to the echo, and fully confirmed the judgment formed of her brilliant power on her first dibat. The fame of the renowned Dulcamara in the hands of Lablache is too widely known to demand a word more than to say Lablache was all himself. His solemn eat?* into the village in the well-known phaeton, with his address to the as sembled thaw-bacons, have not lost one jot of their raciness or effect, and convulsed the house with laughter. He came out superbly in the duo "Io son ricco," and perhaps never played with more spirit, or received heartier applause. The unfortunate swain Nemorino is one of M. Calzolari's best parts. He sang the principal air, "Uno furtiva lagrima," with a pathos and beauty which drew down the warmest applause, and his execution of the music throughout was worthy of admiration. He makes himself; how ever, a little too woe begone in the part. He shou:d remember Suckling's well-known lines : " P..y'tliee, why, fond lover, Why so wan and plc? If looking well won't move her, Will looking ill prevail?" Ferranti was the Sergente, which he gave with the spirit and vivacity which characterise every thing be does ; he gave the first air, one of the most striking morceaux in the opera, very effectively, and plaudits, bravos, and recalls, bestowed liberally throughout the night, abundantly proved the satis faction of the auditory. M. Gardoni was expected in Paris on Tuesday, from Madrid, and will appear in the course of a few nights. Madlle. Amelia Ferraris, and Madlle. Rosati, two of the first danzatrici in Eu rope, have arrived. Madlle. Rosati remains in Paris, being the spirit Ariel in La Tempesta, the opera by Scribe and Halevy, which is now in active rehearsal. Amalia Ferraris starts immediately for London, to eommence the rehearsals of a splendid new ballet with which Mr. Lumley intends to open her Majesty's Theatre.

MONSTRO US CRUELT Y AND S UPERSTITION .—.A fortnight ago, a cat belonging to a fish-hook maker, named Spires, strayed into a neighbour's house, at Redditch, where lodged a girl of bad fame, named Nancy Minor, who is stated to belong to Pershore. She had been told some time ago, by a gipsy woman, that if she would cut the heart out of a cat, alive, and stick with pins in it the name of the man she had fixed her affections on, he would have her. No sooner had the cat made its appearance than she seized it, took it up stairs, secured it firmly to the bedpost, and with a pair of scissors cut the cat open, took out the heart, and was delbe rately fulfilling her inh uman act, when the death cries of i the tortured animal aroused the woman of the house. Unfortu nately, the police and constables were engaged at Bronas grove, and this woman fiend got cle ar ou t o f t h e town, and la 44 464 ice ineza herd Worcokr chronicle.

The other was a pewter flagon, residing at a very excellent hotel, and mov ing in distinguished society, for it assisted almost daily at convivial parties in the Temple. It fell a victim at last to a person belonging to the lower orders, who seized it, one fine morning, while hanging upon some railings to dry, and con veyed it to a Jew, who—l blush to record the insult offered to a respected member of my family—melted it down. My first-mentioned parent—the zinc plate —was not enabled to move much in society, owing to its very close connexion with the street door. It occupied, however, a very con spicuous position in a leading thoroughfare, and was the means of diffusing more useful instruction, perhaps, than many a quarto; for it informed the running as well as the r a e n a d d t i n h g a tptuhbeliirc otffih a c e t lk i l m e u s s r r s s. w S e n r e a p f p r l o e m s a t n e c n l St ill f r o e u s r i d . ed l n w i o t r h d i e n r , to become my progenitor it fell a victim to dishonest prac tices. A" fast" man unscrewed it one night, and bore it off in triumph to his chambers. Here it wa s i nc l u d e d b y " the boy" among his numerou s " p erqu i s i tes, " and, by en easy transition, soon found its way to the Hebrew gentleman above mentioned. The first meeting b e t ween my parents took place in the melting pot of thi s i ngen i ous person, and the result of their subsequent u n i on was mutually advan tageous. The one gained by the alliance that strength and solidity which is not possessed by ev en th e purest pewter; while to the solid qualities of the other were added a white ness and brilliancy that unadulterated zinc could never display. From the Jew my parents were trapsferred—mys n metaphor,secr esya and on silence, the by night—to an obscure individual in a n ob p‘srtetne, i s t c e u ri r o e u I was cast, world. —,Dickens's Household Words.

VICE-CFIANCERY COURT, Jan. 29. (Before Sir J. L. KNIGHT BRUCE.) The Court wes occupied nearly all day in disposing of short causes an; claims, and in hearing arguments in a case the details of which related solely to a technical question of title in a suit for specific performance. (before Lord CRANWORTIL) TALLIS V. STIFF. Mr. Lovell applied for a special injunction to restrain the proprietors of the London Journal from printing or selling any cosies of their journal containing certain matter transcrned from the plaintiffs' magazine, called Tallis's Dranictic Magazine and General Theatrical and Musical &vim The affidavit stated that the plaintiffs employed certtin writers to compose original articles for their magazins, and among others employed a person to write the life sf an actress ;named Miss Isabella Glyn, the particulars of which were supplied by Miss Glyn, and that there was in the number of the magazine which contained suc► life a daguerreot) pe portrait of Miss Glyn, taken by her permission. The defendants had appliLd to Miss Glyn for leave to copy the portait, but that lady refised to grant it ou the grounds that the plaintiffs had already copied the portrait. The defend ants had since copied the a: titles in question and the plate, and under those circumstances this application was made. Ilis LORDSIIIP made the order. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Jan. 29. (Sittings in Banco.) Lee I TILE QUEEN AT TILE INSTANCE OF THE EARL OF DART MOUTH V. HARTNELL. A rule had been recently obtained in this case, galling • on the defendart, the proprietor of the Kentish Mercury, to show cause why a criminal information should not be filed against hin for an alleged libel against the plaintiff, in imputing to him the non-payment of a stipend to the vicar of Lewisham, for reading prayers in a chapel at yy Blackheath, with the payment of which the Earl of Dartmouth was charged. Mr. CHAMBERS, this afternoon, on the part of the de fondaut expressed his regret that the alleged libel in question should have appeared in his newspaper, and that it was written and published on an imperfect informs yy tion of the facts. Sir F. TRECIGER, on behalf of the Earl of Dartmouth, 7‘, expressed his entire satisfaction with the retractation .% which had been made by the defendant, and consented % to the rule being discharged. Lord CAMPBELL was glad that the matter had been so satisfactorily arranged, and ordered the rule to be od discharged.—Rule discharged accordingly. 6% POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Angela Donohoe was brought before the Lord Mayor upon suspicion of having been concerned in a burglary and robbery in Barge-yard, Bucklersbury. Mr. Hobler appeared for the prisoner. George Trew, the officer, said--I went with Fun nell aol other officers to a beer-shop called the Hope, in Hope-street, Spitalfields, at eight o'clock yesterday evening, and saw the prisoner standing near the bar parlour. When she saw me, she went to the other end of the room. I went inside, and she was stand ing by herself, and I told her I wished to speak to her, and told her to step outside. She did so ; and I then asked her what she had been doing with another female on Saturday morning at seven o'clock, in Charlotte-row ? She replied, "I was not there, I tee. was in bed." I said, I s h a ll appre h en d you upon suspicion of being concerned with others in breaking - into a warehouse in Barge-yard. She said she knew nothing about it, and requested that I would let her see her husband, who was in the tap-room. I consented, and she called out her husband, and told him I had taken Ler into custody for a robbery in 1 % the City. She then said she wished to go for her child, and Funnell and I accompanied her and her husband to No. 34, Anchor-street, Shoreditch, where they lived. Her husband got a light, and we began ice to search the place; when I p u t my h an d t o a li tt l e basket which was hanging up, her husband leaped from the top to the bottom of the stairs, and escaped through a trap door into a cellar. In the basket as we found seventeen skeleton keys, a picklock, a pair of files, a pair of nippers, two saddler's needles, such ti as are used by thieves in breaking windows, an old very sharp knife, several other housebreaking imple ments, and a piece of rope which was no doubt used in scaling walls. The prisoner —It never was. The LORD MAYOR—Did the man escape ? Trew ' —He did. The man had not been identified, and he did not attempt to go before I put my hand to the basket. George Ayling, an officer—On Saturday morning last, when I went on duty at six o'clock, I saw the 34 prisoner in the neighbourhood of Charlotte-row, and she seemed to shun me. At a quarter to seven o'clock I again saw her. She was with another wo man at the coroner of Bucklersbury and Charlotte-row, at that time, and I questioned them as to why they were there. The prisoner said she was waiting for a friend, that she had waited until she got so cold she could not stay any longer. Last night I accompanied the first witness, and saw her at the Hope beer-shop, in the tap-room, where there were four men playing cards. She was laughing, and had what appeared to be the " crib" in her hand. When she saw me she put down the cards, took up an umbrella, and walked out. I followed, and she stopped to talk to the land lady. I accompanied Trew and Funnell to her resi dence in Anchor-street, Spitalfields. One of the men who had been playing cards was her husband. I kept the door at their house. Another officer, who had been on duty in the neighbourhood of Bucklersbury, stated that he had seen the prisoner and another woman at half-past four o'clock, going down I3ucklersbury. They stopped at the corner of Charlotte-row and looked back, and they then went along Charlotte-row towards the Poultry. At half-past six o'clock witness again saw them. They were going down Bucklersbury again, and they stopped several minutes at the corner of % Charlotte-row and Bucklersbury. He did not speak to them. He saw them about twenty yards from Barge-yard. Mr. Gabriel G. Webb, one of the Society of Friends, said, I have a warehouse in Barge-yard. It ice ' was broken open between Friday night and Saturday morning. I left the warehouse at about half-past four o'clock on Friday, and during the night I lost cloth from the warehouse to the value of 901. It was prin j. eipally the best sort of cloth. This cloth (pointing to a small sample which h a d b een f oun d i n th e b as k et 3 4 with the house-breaking implements) is not any part is. of what was stolen. .% Cross-examined by Mr. Hobler—l never saw the prisoner befor the present moment. Is. Funnell said he found in the prisoner's possession several duplicates, but they did not relate to the robbery. 6(.1 In answer to a question fr om th e L oan M AYOR , Trew said lie was in possession of information °' which justified him in stating that he had every reason to believe that he could bring forward addi .% tional evidence against th e pri soner an d o th ers w h o Os were suspected or having been concerned in the burglary. 6d Mr. dobler submitted that there was not sufficient ground for detaining the woman ; and that, whatever might be inferred against her husband from the cir cumstance of his sudden disappearance, she could not be looked upon as a responsible agent. The LORD MAYOR said, that putting the conduct of the husband wholly out of the question, that of the prisoner, who had been seen so frequently in the im mediate neighbourhood in which the depredation had been committed, was attended with quite suspicion enough to authorise a remand. Tha prisoner was then remanded. GUILDHALL. A little girl, about fifteen years of age, and who gave her name Mary Matthews, was placed at the bar before Alderman Kelly, charged with having in her posses sion a suit of prison clothes, value 10s., without being able to render a satisfactorily account of the same. It appeared from the statement of George Devereux, the principal turnkey of Bridewell, that on Tuesday morning, about four o'clock, a young man about 18 years of age, of the name of William Holloway, be ing an inmate of the prison, was allowed to go to work in the labour-yard, when by some extraordinary means, as yet unaccounted for, he made his escape by the back premises. As soon as he was missed a de scription was sent to the Fleet-street station, and Inspector Scott, who was on duty there, at once for warded information to all the City and Metropolitan stations. In the course of the afternoon prisoner came to the prison, bringing with her Holloway's clothes, which he had sent back, fearing that if he were taken again he would he charged with the felony. Prisoner w as c l ose ly qu estioned, and sh e sa id s h e knew nothi ng of Holloway; a boy met her in the street and gave her the clothes to bring to the prison. She lived, she said, at 5, Charles-street, Euston-place, Somer's Town. Oa making inquiries in the neigh bourhood it was found that nothing was known of her. She could not have lived there, as they are all large gentlemen's houses. Devereux said he was particular in questioning the girl on account of the great resem blance she bore to the prisoner who had escaped, which led him to suppose that they wore brother and sister. The girl was sentenced to two months imprison ment in the House of Correction for unlawful pos- session. HUNTING ACCIDENT.—On Thursday a serious, if ' not fatal, accident befel the Rev. IL Thorp, rector of Burton Overy, near Illston-on-the-Hill, while enjoying a run with Sir IL Sutton's hounds. Mr. Thorp was cantering along at an easy pace over the turf, within two fields of the fox, wheat his horse suddenly fell and rolled completely over him. Several gentlemen hastened to his assistance, but found him quite insensible. Medical aid having been:procured, it was ascertained that there was little hope of Mr. Thorp's re covery, so severe was the concussion and pressure from the horse that he had sustained. Mr. Thorp was alive on Friday morning, but was still considered to be in a very precarious condition.—Leicestershire Nercury. CITY OF LONDON CENTRAL CATTLE MARKET. A conversazione was held at the London Coffee house, Ludgate-hill, last evening, for the purpose of hearing an explanatory lecture by Mr. James Acland upon the " corporate model" of the proposed new Central Cattle-market. The model of the contem plated improvements is the same which has for some time past been exhibited for the inspection of the public at Guildhall, and previously at King -street Bazaar, during the Smithfield cattle show; and the lecture was illustrated by elaborately-executed plans and some beautifully tinted lithographic views. Sir James Duke, M.P., Mr. Charles Pearson, the City solicitor; Mr. D. W. Harvey, Mr. Loman Tay lor, chairman of the markets' committee; Mr. George Walter, Mr. Seele, and several of the most extensive butchers and salesmen were present; Mr. James Blackett presiding as chairman. Mr. BLACLETT opened the proceedings by calling attention to the model, as showing what the City corporation proposed with regard to the new market. The object or the Central Market Association was above everything else to diffuse correct information upon this important matter, that the public might be in a position to judge for themselves upon the merits of the plan now submitted to them. The inhabitants of the metropolis could not exist without a good supply of food, and he felt confident that the plan contemplated would enable them to obtain it with the least possible inconvenience. —(Hear, hear.) Mr. Blackett concluded by introducing Mr. Acland, the secretary to the Central Markets' Association, to the meeting. Mr. ACIAND then said that the Central Markets' Association was formed at the commencement of September last; that it comprised graziers, salesmen and their drovers, butchers and their drovers, and the proprietors and occupiers of houses and property likely to be affected by any alteration in the existing markets in the city of London; and that for five months the assoeiation had been engaged in taking steps calculated to maintain the central position of the existing live-cattle market in Smithfield.—(Hear, hear.) The necessity for such an association would be obvious, when he stated that now, for many months, a portion of the press had been laudably en gaged in denouncing abuses which no one could ques tion the existence of, and that the effect of its de nunciations had been to excite a very general and very proper prejudice, so to call it, against the nuisance. Application would be made to Parliament by parties who were desirous of winning from the city of Lon • don its live-cattle market, and to obtain a profit which was at present enjoyed by the trustees of the citizens of London.—(Hear, hear.) The corporation of the city of London also proposed to apply to Par 'lament for leave to erect a new live-cattle market, and for power to abate the existing nuisance in connexion with Smithfield.—(Hear, hear.) The parties who formed the Central Markets' Associa tion were interested, and directly interested, in the maintenance of the central live-cattle market of London ; and they were anxious to support the efforts of the corporation for the maintenance of the central position of that market, and, of course, to oppose any attempt that might be made to remove that market. But, on the other hand, they were not so wedded to, or connected with, the corporation as to accept the proposal of the corporation as a whole. In form, they had approved the principles of the corporation Bill ; but, in fact, and in action, they had objected to cer tain details of that measure. They had, by deputa tion, waited upon the Markets' Improvement Com mittee of the city of London, had mooted their ob jections to these details, had had those details recon sidered by the committee, and many of their sugges tions promptly and handsomely accepted and adopted by that committee.—(Hear.) Already, therefore, the association had done good service to the public.— (Hear.) Knowing that the corporation were in ear nest in the prosecution of their measure, and that they desired only to do that which was right, and at the same time most conducive to the suppression of the existing nuisance, to the extension of the accommo dation in the central cattle market, and in general to meet the views, and so far as they might with pro priety, even the prejudices of the public, the association were now prepared to advocate the proposal of the corporation for the construction of a new market.— (Cheers.) Mr. Acland then proceeded to combat the various objections which had been raised to the cor poration plan, and first that it was the establishment of a monopoly. This, he said, it could not be, inas much as Smithfield was not the only cattle market in the metropolis, though it was the only one which was frequented for trade. Have as many markets as we would, so long as they were inconvenient to the trade, as that at Islington was, and so long as there was a market which was convenient to the trade, as that at Smithfield was, the latter would be the only market, yet not a monopoly market. The fact was, the Central Market Association was opposing a mo nopoly; for the proposal of the opponents of the cen tral market was that there should no longer be a central market—in short, that there should be no mar ket in the place which was most convenient to those concerned in it; that a monopoly market should be created at a distance from the centre, inconvenient to all concerned in it, multiplying the oulsance to a great extent, and establishing itself not upon its merits, but upon the despotic act of tearing the existing charters, flinging defiance in the face of the corporation, and riding upon the storm of prejudice which had been excited by the iniquitous means of connecting the existing nuisance of Smithfield with the proposed new cattle-market devoid of this nuisance. —(Cheers.) The corporation had done all they could to reduce the nuisance; they admitted that they had not been able to abate it to their satisfaction; and they proposed to ask power of the Legislature to accomplish that desirable object.— (Hear, hear.) They proposed that the new market should be an enclosed market, and that no thorough fares should intersect it.—(Hear, hear.) They pro posed to say to the butchers, "You must get up earlier, begin business sooner, and get your cattle out of the market by nine o'clock !"—(Hear, hear.) If not, the gates would be shut, and they would not be able to remove them until late in the evening.— (Cheers.) Thus, by closing the market from nine in the morning till eight in the evening, the great objec tion of cattle passing through the streets by day would at once be done away with.—(Hear.) Sales men would have to come to market earlier, and butchers to go earlier, in order to meet the prejudices —the just prejudices—of the community to the inter ruption of the traffic by the passage of cattle through the streets during the hours of business by day. But the corporation also proposed to abolish some existing nuisances as well as to abate others. At present there was to be found, immediately adjacent to Smith field-market, a clump of buildings, comprising the lanes and alleys to the south and west of the Ram Inn—he alluded particularly to Cow-cross and Sharp's-alley, where abounded knackers' yards, com mon slaughter-houses, manufacturers of neat's-foot oil, rabbit and cats' skin dressers, bone collectors, and, in the aggregate, 57 distinct nuisances. It was this site which the corporation now proposed to Parlia ment should be cleared for the purpose of erecting their new, cleanly, well-planned, and well-ordered live-cattle market.—(Loud cheers.) Smithfield market was charged as the scene of the perpetration of much cruelty, and much cruelty did take place, though unavoidably ; and being unavoidable, it was not in fact cruelty.—(Hear and a laugh.) Coercion which was unavoidable was not cruelty, for cruelty was needless coercion. If cruelty were practised it was the result of the present confined area of the market. It had never been denied that the space was not large enough, and the corporation, in proposing to remedy that evil, said, " Give us power and we will make a market large enough, so that every ox that comes into the market shall be tied up in such a manner that there will be no occasion even for this unavoid ble' coercion." He held in his hand an official list of the number of cattle which had been brought to the market for a series of years past ; and he observed that the largest number was 6,300 oxen on the occasion of the great market at Christmas last. Had the new market been in existence at that period, those 6,300 beasts would have been, every one of them, tied by the rails, and a large space of ground left still unoccupied.— Hear.) It was not correct to say that the contem plated improvements would not admit of accommoda tion for the increased supply which increased popula tion rendered necessary. The fact was, that the supply of live cattle had not hitherto kept pace with the advance of population, but the supply of dead meat had.--(Hear, hear.) The corporation proposed to leave the present market an open area ; but de stroying the habitations of thieves, prostitutes, and other " innocent" persons in its neighbourhood, they would erect upon what was now the sheep market a range of model lodging-houses to accommodate a thousand families : These would be built upon _the most approved plan, so that the thousand families should no longer live in the midst of the abomi❑a tions which now surrounded them, and should not continue to be themselves a nuisance to the commu nity Opposite to St. Bartholomew's Hospital they also proposed to erect a set of baths and wttshhouses. The market would be upon an inclined plane, for which they had full scope, inasmuch as the Fleet ditch lay forty feet below the level of Smithfield; and, by constructing a reservoir and fountain, they could at any time flush the entire market, cleanse it of its filth, and at the same time supply the cattle and sheep with water.—(Cheers.) To the objection that the market at Smithfield was prejudicial to health, he answered that it was contrary to the re corded opinion of the medical staff of St. Bartholo mew's Hospital, to the sanitary condition of Christs's Hospital, the Charter House, and the City gaol, and to the evidence of the registrar of the district, the re ports of Committees of the House of Commons and the Royal Commissioners. It had been st a t e d i n t h e public press, as an objection to the sch eme , t h at i t w o uld cost a half million of money, to h e l ev i e d as a toll upon the cattle coming to the mark e t. I t was not so. A quarter of a million would be laid out in improving the market, and the increased toll occa sioned thereby would be no more than one farthing for every 801bs. of meat sold in the market.—(Rear, hear.) The other quarter of a million would be laid out in providing the baths and washhouses, widen ing the streets, and effecting other improvements, for which the public would not have to pay at all. A short discussion followed, in the course of which it was elicited that the area of the present market, exclusive of thoroughfares, was about four acres, and that the area of the new market would be between eight and nine acres. Mr. CHALLIS, as a salesman, observed that ninety nine out of every hundred of his trade, were in favour of the corporation plan, that a considerable number of the Smithfield salesmen had joined the Central Mar kets Association in order to promote the carrying out of that plan; and that the gentleman (Mr. Erle) who had asked the question which but drawn this ex planation from the se3retary, happened to be one of the minority.—(Laughter and cheering.) A vote of thanks was then passed to Ar. Blackett for presiding, and the company then retired to an upper room, where they partook of a bountiful collation, served up in excellent style by Messrs. Lovegrove. STATE OF TRADE. (From the Manchester Guardian.) MANCHESTER, TTJESDAY.—The indications of an increase of business which were observable here at the latter end of last week, together with the advance of 1-16 d. to *d. per pound on Friday's rates in the raw material, quoted in the Liverpool circulars of yesterday, caused our market to open this morning with a general expectation of improvement, which has not been realised. Both the shippers and the manu• facturers have shown an indisposition to operate in yarns ; and although the quotations remain, for the most part, unaltered, the buy e r s hav e generally been able to get what they might want at some little re duction. The letters from Germany received this morning agree with those of the last week or two, or rather exceed them, in representing the general in terests of trade as suffering very much from the effects of the political distractions which have pre vailed and the vast military preparations that have arisen therefrom. The manufacturers are described as working for stock, and not to order. Under these circumstances the merchants in this town have kept very decidedly aloof from business, and the yarns par ticularly adapted for their trade, especially 30's water, have been more depressed than other descriptions. There is less of weakness in the prices of goods than in those of yarns. ROCHDALE, MONDAY.—We have had another quiet market to-day, and the merchants are offering less money for pieces. Wool, however, fully main • tains its former prices. Had we a severe frost instead of this open weather, the demand for flannels at this period of the year, considering the present state of the trade, would probably have been greater than the supply. MACCLESFIELD ' TUESDAY. ---The manufactured goods trade still remains very flat; although there exists some inquiry for spring goods, still the prices are such as have led to little actual business. There is a general admission that an advance on present offering rates must be given ere business can be done. The throwing mills continue working the usual hours; although the demand for throwns continues inactive, still confidence is expressed that this article will shortly be in much greater request. The raw silk market continues firm for most descriptions, not with standing the late reported fall in best quaaties of Chinas. HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY.--There has been nothing of interest stirring in our market of to-day ; conse quently, not much doing in any class of goods. Most of the manufacturers are working to order, so that wools and yarns keep up their price very well, as the manufacturers are obliged to buy to execute orders in hand. HALIFAX, SATURDAY.—There was but a slender attendance of merchants in our Piece-hall to-day, and the worsted trade cannot be called active; but there is an improved demand for damasks, and the inquiry for cotton weft lastings, of low quality, continues. The yarn market has not undergone much alteration fur the last week or two. The demand is not brisk either for export or for home consumption, and the high price of the raw material keeps up the quotations. There is not a large quantity of wool changing hands, and prices are firm. LEEDS, TUESDAY.—There is little change to notice in the woollen trade since our last report. The markets have been only dull. The merchants are pretty well stocked ; and, in consequence of the late advance in prices, are acting cautiously. Business is dull in the warehouses. The mild weather has con siderably checked the sale of heavy goods. SEABORNE MAILS. -- When made up in From what when PLACES. General Post-office port dis due. London. patched. Africa (West coast)..
