The committee, after hearing evidence, agreed to a resolution declaring that Mr. Mackinnon was not duly elected. The committee also expressed their intention of going into further evidence with a view of sifting to the bot tom the attempt at compromise which it was stated had been made. The committee then adjourned until Monday, at 11. No decision was given in any of the other committees, all of which are still engaged in hearing evidence. STATE OF TRADE. (From the Manchester Guardian of this day.) MANCHESTER, MARCH 4.—The Liverpool market is but little affected by the enlarging prospects for the supply of the raw material. Below good middling the buyer has an advantage of nearly '- s d. per lb. as compared with this day week, but scarcely so in any quality above middling. In our market, the effect is an increase of caution on the part of buyers, with a further tendency to lower prices in goods at large, and in mule and water twist of the medium and lower counts. Warps and cops have yielded more than bundles. But such spinnings as suit the Bradford trade remain quite firm ; and those into which sea islands cotton enters are rather dearer. The arrival of the overland mail, with advices showing some decline in prices at Bombay, Calcutta, Shanghae, and Canton, has exercised a somewhat unfavourable in fluence upon business, yesterday and to-day ; and 40-inch shirtings may now be had at a concession of at least 44d. to 6d. per piece from the late highest rates. In most other goods the bias is somewhat in favour of buyers. The Liverpool market has proved much steadier than either the spinners or the Manchester merchants antici pated. Yarns have receded much more than the raw material ; so that the position of this branch of trade is decidedly changed for the worse. The general expecta tion, however, is, that the weight of supply must occa sion a gradual subsidence in the value of cotton. GLASGOW, MARCH 4.-014 cotton market has been very quiet during the past week, and prices are a shade lower. Holders appear rather more anxious to sell. BRADFORD, MARCH 3.—W00l The transactions throughout the week have been limited, the prices sought acting as a barrier to business, the spinners having an ticipated, with the great dullness that has existed, a cor responding decline in prices. But so dear has the stock in the market been generally bought (and no ease can be had now from the growers), that there is no disposition to sell, except at rates bearing no propor tion with the current price for yarns. The closing sales of colonial and the fair at Bristol yesterday were both marked by great firmness, at prices far too high for their destination. Yarns—There is rather an improved demand for yarns for Lancashire, on the spool ; the feeling is more cheerful, and it is not improbable, had prices ruled at similar rates to last season, that the consumption would have been extended. The demand for this market continues steady, and the buyers for shipping are more willing to buy than they were two or three weeks ago, no dout from the feeling that there is no chance for yarns being made any cheaper. The contracts made for yarns to-day are certainly not more favourable to the buyer, and any change will most assuredly be upwards. Pieces.—The fact of an advance taking place on the Ist of March with the dyers, has caused the month just closed to be more active than many of its predecessors, and large deliveries have been made to the merchants. The stocks on hand are by no means heavy, and if we have the usual briskness of spring, considerably higher prices must follow.—Bradford Oliserier. NOTTINGHAM, MARCH 3.—The lace trade is not by any means in so brisk a state as we anticipated it would be this month, yet there is time for a considerable im provement to develop itself, especially in the fancy de partment, as an improved style of design is constantly being produced. Although orders fOr hosiery goods are not quite so numerous as they have been, there continues to be a fair amount of business doing.—Nottingham Journal. LEICESTER, MARCH 3.---There has been no variation in the demand for manufactured goods this week. Worsted spinners have been compelled to raise their yarns from a halfpenny to a penny per lb., and these frequent advances cause great caution, though from all appearances it is not hkely to remain long at these prices, wools being very difficult to purchase even at the higher rates. The colonial wool sales have terminated, and the whole was briskly sold, principally for home consumption, at 11d. per lb. advance on last rates. — Leicester Journal. ANOTHER GREAT SNOW SQUALL. UPWARDS OF ONE HUNDRED COASTERS DRIVEN ASHORE. The whole range of the Lincolnshire and Yorkshire coast, from far above Flamborough Head to below the Wash, was, on Wednesday night and Thursday morn ing, visited by. the most destructive snow storm that has been experienced off that part of the kingdom for some years. The consequences to the shipping engaged in the collier and coasting trade was most diastrous, as many aA; 100 vessels having been driven ashore. Owing to the continuance of the north-easterly wind a large fleet of colliers have been detained in Yarmouth Roads and other ports southward ; most of them were light in ballast awaiting a change of wind to take them to the northward. It is computed that as many as a thousand were in this dilemma. Tuesday brought about the desired change, when the immense fleet got under weigh for their several harbours. Ere 20 hours had elapsed, however, the wind chopped round to the old quarter, E.N.E., and there being every indication of more stormy and snowy weather, there was a general run back amongst the fleet to take shelter in the roadsteads and other places. Those to the southward of Cromer suc ceeded in making Yarmouth in safety, but the large number which had reached far away over the Boston Deeps, towards Flamborough, were thrown into inde scribable confusion. Wednesday night set in with heavy squalls of snow, and so thick was the fall, coupled with the darkness which prevailed, that it was almost impos sible to see much beyond the length of the ship. The mischief that followed by the vessels coming in contact with each other, was immense, and an inevitable result of their going, as they do, in shoals, following close in each other's wake. The run for the Spurn, at the mouth of the Humber, is described to have been a most extra ordinary scene. There was a fleet of at least 600 sail, all standing in at one time, each endeavouring to out strip the other in reaching the desired refuge. To enu merate the casualties at this point, by collision and other mishaps, would involve much space. Such destruction was probably never known to take place in that locality at one period before. Upwards of 20 sail were reported to have been blown ashore to the north ward of the Spurn Point. There were four cast on the beach within three-quarters of a mile of the lights. They were the Placevia, Mr. Richardson, master ; Morgenia, Mr. Pearson, master ; Jane and Ann, Mr. Smith, master ; and Aurora, Mr. Nelson, master. Owinc , to the heavy sea that prevailed, it was impossible to render any assistance to the crews by means of the life-boats. Those on shore availed themselves of Carter's rockets to obtain a communication with the stranded vessels, and succeeded in throwing a line over each; the seamen were brought safely on shore, where every com fort was provided for them at the Life Boat Hotel. A fatal catastrophe was witnessed by the crew of the brig Sophia, of Portsmouth, bound to Su nderland. About 7 o'clock ' on Thursday morning, a schooner was seen to founder, with signals of distress flying, about eight miles north-west of Bridlington. The fate of her unhappy crew is almost certain. On the morning following the fall, the Humber was crowded by several hundred col liers, and the demand for shipwrights at Grimsby, and other places adjacent, created almost a panic. • Between the Spurn and Bridlington the havoc was equally as severe ; vessels came in collision and after wards were stranded in all directions. In Bridlington bay a melancholy sight presented itself. While the gale was at Its height, the William, Mr. Scott, master. of Sunderland, and the Nathaniel, Mr. Renton, master, of Newcastle, came in fearful contact and sustained much damage. They became unmanageable, and eventually were both carried ashore in the course of the night, to the southward of the harbour. Another fine vessel, a three-masted ship, the Margaret, Mr. Potts, captain, of Whitstable, shared a similar fate. She came intcollisi on with the Marmora, Mr. Richardson, a re Shields, an d the fearing she would founder, got on board the vessel.latte e r w 'At daybreak, the Mar garet was disc overed to have e ight miles to the southward of the port in a most disabled condition. The Mar e m eo ora r , alosfo the e reatly da maged, came into the bay in th w ith the shipwrecked cr ew . A fo u u g rt e h vessel was lost by being run down off the coast. The James Saville, brigantine , of Stockton, was struck by a b r i g , supposed ' to be the Eli za and Jane, o f 'Whitby, and but for the fortunate coming up of the Glance, of Shields, and taking the unfortunate crew off at the time she did, the poor fellows must have perished, the brigantine having, foundered in deep water, within a few minutes after they had been rescued. Of the many vessels which are reported tohaveb ofeen p carried ashore, there is greatprobability of most them being got off; but it is feared that the full extent of the mischief has yet to be learned. HOT)/ AND TAVERN KEEPERS INSTITUTION.—This institution is now in its fourteenth year, and has funded the sum of 5,3871. The committee have relieved, since their fund has been opened, forty-one members, most of whom still continue to receive assistance. The number relieved last year was twenty-three members and eight widows. An increase of nine claimants upon the fund took place last year, in consequence of which the allow ance of most of the recipients was necessarily reduced. The benefits resulting from the institution will be seen from the following cases :---J. D., an annual member, who has paid only Si. Bs., has received 884 12s. G. G. (widow), member, who had only paid 71. 75., has re ceived 581. There were upwards of twenty applicants of Fyixty years of age applying for relief.

PLYMOUTH, MARCH 4. The General Screw Steam-shipping Company's verse: Hellespont, Captain Watts, sailed on Thursday after. noon for the Cape of Good Hope and Australia. This vessel conveyed what is termed a private mail, namely, all papers, &e., posted "per Hellespont." It was anti cipated she would have taken the mails relanded from the Australian, but the Post-office authorities deter mined to send them overland, as from the injury received by the leakage of the last-named vessel, it was deemed advisable that they should be in the hands of the parties to whom they were addressed with the least possible delay. The merchant ship Eirnswell, Captain Hawkins, from Sydney, was off the port, and landed to-day here three mails dated Sydney, Sept. 20, and one dated Wellington, Sept. 12. The bark Seawitch, Heaton, with teas and silks, 119 days from lihanghae ' is in the Sound. Jan. 27, in lati tude 2 30, long. 20 14 W., spoke the bark West ; 29th, in lat. 7 10 N., long. 23 30 W., passed ,the bark Law rence, from the Mauritius, for Cork ; 30th, in lat. 8 7 N., long. 25 10 W., the Dutch bark Aurora, 73 days from Batavia, for Rotterdam ; Feb. Bth, in lat. 33 17 N., long. 36 30 W., the American ship Massa chusetts, 20 days from Liverpool, for South Carolina. Left at St. Helena, Jan. 16, the William Sardine, the Lady Kennaway, and the Crescent. The following small vessels, lying at this port, are about to be sold out of the service :—Espoir, Sheldrake, and Lapwing, late packets, and the Adventure trans port. The Magicienne steamer, Captain Fisher, returned this morning from Cork, and came into harbour to fill up with coals. The Avon, steam-tender, will sail to-morrow for Portsmouth with supernumeraries ; also stores from the dockyard. CouET-MARTIAL.—A court-martial assembled this morning on board the Impregnable, Commodore Sey mour, president ; Captains Nias, Lowe, Ramsay, Cham bers, and Buckle, to try Francis Stapleton, boatswain's mate, of the Vulture, for drunkenness, and violent con duct when in charge of the sentinel. The court found him guilty of all the charges, when he was sentenced to be taken back to his ship, to receive three dozen lashes, then to undergo twelve months' imprisonment, and after that to be discharged the service, with disgrace. PUBLIC PETITIONS.--A return has just been printed, by order of the house, which gives a comparative state ment of the number of petitions presented in periods of five years at the end of the last century, the commence ment of the present, and during the last 25 years. It appears that in the five years ending 1788-9, the average number was only 176 ; in the five years ending 1804-5, it had scarcely risen, being only 205 : in the same number of years ending 1815 the average rose to 899; in the five years preceding the Reform Bill, the agitation on that question and on Catholic Eman cipation caused a large increase, and the average rose to 4,656 ; since which period the return shows the great and increasing extent to which the right of petition is exercised by the people of this country, stating that in the five years ending 1837 the average was 7,436 ; in the five years ending 1842 the average was 14,014 ; in the five years ending 1847 it rose to the enormous number of 16,397 ; since which there has been a fall to 12,449, attributable to the cessation of political agitation, and to the increased prosperity and contentment of the people. The total number of petitions presented in 20 years last past is 251,488 • printed, 24,624 ; signa tures, 64,907,735. There is also: a statement that the committee carefully supervisy the signatures, and atten tively compare such petitions, to avoid printing copies of the same, as was constantly the ease under the old system, when petitions were printed upon motion in the house, and when nearly half the number of petitions presented were printed. It is obvious, if that practice had con tinued, the sums paid for printing would have enormously increased; whereas, owing to reductions in charges and general,ecenomical arrangement, the expense has, in pro portion to the number of petitions presented, greatly di mished. In 1852, the average number of petitions being 4,656, the average expense incurred for printing was 1,1621.155. 11d. • in 1852, the average number ofpetitions being 12,449, - the average expense incurred for printing was 1,463/. The committee have about 70 meetings an nually, which must be a great tax upon the time and pa tience of th e members comp osing it, who deserve the thanks of the public accordingly. Thanks are also due to Mr. Thornely, the chairman of the committee, who has exer cised for several years an active and untiring superin tendence t e o t t t i h o e n s p r inquiries esent a e d n d b w y i s t h h e e s m o ! f m w i e ll in b b e e r s tendence ever its proceedings, and whose courteous atten secet. • kuowledgQd. generallywith re respect WHITEHALL, MARCH 2.
