New Beans a little more in demand at full prices, but old ones sell slowly. WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, FEBRUARY 19. The supplies of all grain are very, limited. The market is well attended, but very little business done, as holders are un willing to sell under last week's prices, and to effect sales ra ther less money must be taken.

The hard frost and heavy falls of snow last week, have been followed by a rapid thaw, and with a change of wind, blowing from the west, a numerous fleet of vessels has entered this port; those grain laden bearing a tolerable proportion, the arrivals since this day se'nnight include a juoderate supply coastwise, but very little of any thing from Ireland, whilst the shipments hence to that country continue upon a large scale daily. Of foreign produce the imports are to a fair amount, especially of Indian Corn and Flour, which, from the states, are considera ble. Influenced by the rise,in the leading provincial markets last week, and the advance again in London yesterday, a numerous attendance of country millers, and several from Ireland, ap peared this morning, which, at the Commencement of business, seemed to give a further impulse to the Wheat trade, and sales •to alair extent were effected at - an amendment upon Friday's rates, increasing our quotations fully 6d. per7Olb. over the cur rency.eif this day se'nnight. The importers of Flour continuing to require higher terms than buyers could be induced to pay, the transactions were limited; and though in the course of the morning a few parcels of Western brands were disposed of at 41s. Gd., - the trade closed rather languidly at 415., being 2s. per barrel, and Irish Is. per sack-only above the rates of this day week. Malting Barley and Malt, the former being scarce, and both in request, were held steadily at our increased' quotations.— Beans and Pease, upon a limited demand, remained unaltered in value'—Oats and Oatmeal, continuing to attract very little inlnnb.datitiaiened fullyl7 n o n i , isc a lai t i.4 l , l o6 a tr n et d aen , d, t et i hr i the requirements notice, barely sustained late prices. cr e ee m ar e ce n ha t el s (i: f e o ld ; Ireland being q i ‘ c -ua h inr on and , several cargoes i ilo ie at:n ta g te v:e w re .e c r o e n g tr . a n c e t r e , d li, f_o o r n to ti t , l e freights srket exorbitant, t 1 -day. last;te r advance,and the ' export to Englund and France bay ing the stocks in tthe s ie e e a l p i o e r x t tzi a ls v i a v i e w a b i l l e d f t o h r e ili d n e n n edi al at l e Increasing were therefore considerably reduced, but would be augniC,Tl' telon the re-Open ing of the rivers iu the spring.

We have had a good supply of most kinds of Grain coastwise since ;Monday last, but very little fresh in from Ireland. With Strong westerly winds, - however, the imports of Indian e Corn nce, (pleand Flour front America continue on a liberal scale, which, in addition to some European arrivals, form altogether a supply sufficient for the present, and tend to check the active dis position previously apparent : the trade has, in co exhibited sonic degree of languor for most articles on the spot, whilst for floating .cargoes of Wheat and Indian Corn, there has been during the interval since Tuesday, r. gOod inquiry, and large transactions have taken place, sonic of them for diStant period's of shipment. Although upon a limited number :only of the country' trade this morning, and our local millers slow in their proceedings, softie farther sales of Wheat were effected for Irish account at a decline of 3d. per 7olb in the value of all descriptions. American Flour; superseding in a great degree the use of English and Irish, the latter must he noted Is. per sack, and the former 2s. per barrel cheaper; at which, with the exception. of 17,0.10 barrels of - New Oriettas, taken yesterday for invest ment, the transactions since Tuesday have been entered into less freely than before. tilting Barley and Nialt, with a limited supply of each, steadily maintained late prices,nuct Grinding Barley remained unearied. Beans , upon a. limited- demand, barely sustained our last quotaticals; and Pease receded 2e. per quarter. Oats, .continuing to meet little notice, . were , rather depressed in Oatmeal, on the contrary, commanding more attention, was the turn dearer.

On the Bth instant, after a short illness, JAMES FLOYD, Esq., only son of the late Richard Floyd, Esq., of Kilmorane Cottage, * County Clare, Ireland. Same day, at Macmurrough, Ireland, the Rev. ROBERT CARPENTER, rector of Rew Ross. The love borne to this respected clergyman by all classes of society, were testified by the surroanffing neighbourhood, in a - manner calculated to soothe the deep sorrow of his afflicted family. On the day of his interment, and on the four preceding days, the shops of the town were closed in testimony of respect to his memory. About twenty clergymen of the Church of England. (by eight of whom the coffin was borne,) all the Roman Catholic clergy men of Ross and Rosbercon, the dissenting ministers, and the gentry, along with a vast body of the inhabitants of the town and country around, followed his remains to the grave. As a parish minister he was zealous and laborious, as a preacher eloquent and, faithful, and in his daily intercourse with all, especially with the distressed, lie was affectiorbate, sympathis ing, and patient. He was selected four years ago by the pre sent Bishop of Ossory to fill the important post of rector of Ross, and was subsequently appointed one of his lordship's examiners for holy orders. His constitution sank prematurely under the weight of his arduous though much-loved duties, and his end was peace. through the merits of Jesus. He has left a widow and eightchildren to mourn his irreparable loss. The reverend gentleman was,brother, we believe, to the Rev. Mr. Carpenter, of this town.

In 1837 he was made one of the principal clerks in the Court of Session. His literary ca reer prominently commenced in 1829, when Mr., now Lord Jeffrey, being appointed dean of the faculty of advocates, reti red from the editorship of the Edinburgh Review, which was then assumed by Mr. Napier. Afterwards lie undertook the superintendence of the seventh and last edition of the Enryclo 'media lirilannica. He was also the author of some treatises on Scotch law. For some time past Mr. Napier's health was in a declining state, and except in lecturing to his students, his last public appearance was as a witness in the recent case of Dugald Stewart's son against the publishers of the Encyclope dia Prifannica.

MA NCHESTER.—Our market still continues to present a dis couraging and unfavourable aspect. Although there has been considerably more inquiry this week, and a greater amount of business done than formany previous weeks,arisen yet this has ‘. mainly from the fact, that rates h ave a pp rox imated more nearly to what they were before the recent rise in the price of the raw material. Buyers have, in consequence, been more, inclined to give out such orders as they had on hand at or near the old limits. The business transacted has been, as a general rule, accompanied with much loss to p ro d ucers . I n d ee d , they find it quite impossible to effect sales, except by very serious con cessions in price. So far, therefore, as the interests of spinners and manufacturers are concerned, we are compelled to consider this week as anything but a favourable one. At its commence , mentthere was noticeable a slight increase of confidence, but as the week advanced this feeling has rather declined. Domes- - tics and T cloths, and the lower numbers of yarns, have been very languid. The business effect e d h as been principally ire slurtings, printing-cloths, and yarns of the higher numbers. Orders to a fair amount have been received by the Hibernia, but theST are not such as to in uence the market in any sensible degree. The great demand for the agricultural products of the United States must, however, ere long, lead to an increased consumption of our manufactures, strengthen the friendly re- I lations between the two countries, and tend to secure a regular I and permanent interchange of products highly beneficial to the interests of both nations. In this .way, a great lasting good may indirectly flow from that scarcity of food which has corn , pelled us to resort to America for the supply of our deficiencies... ROCHDALE. — AIthough we have had a moderate attendance in the Flannel market this week, it has been one of the dullest markets we have witnessed for some thne, and in many in stances manufacturers were obliged to submit to a small re duction in price. The -Wool market was also dull, and but- I very little business was transacted. Prices were the same as , last week. LEEDS.—The Woollen trade continues 'in the same languid state which we have for sometime had to record; and the long anticipated demand for Woollen goods for the foreign market (cOnsecitent, as it was predicted by sanguine free-traders it would be, on the passing of their favourite measure,) has not yet arrived,—" Hope deferred waking the heart sick ; " hence we are not surprised to hear that some of the German houses in the Woollen stuff trade, in the West Riding; whose opera tions have hitherto been confined to the foreign market, are about to launch into the home trade, their last year's transac tions abroad having paid but a very trifling interest upon their invested capital. From the careful manner in which both merchants and manufacturers conduct their business, the stocks at present are lower than might be expected, but the prices of goods are barely remunerative. Indeed there is no doubt that some of ,the. manufacturers are running their ma chinery at a loss to themselves, in the hope that trade wilt soon mend, and with a commendable desire not to throw large bodies of the Operative classes out of employ in these "try ing: times," liaAntroku.—Wool.- The transactions during the week ham I' nn ext remely small, and priCes are a shade lower. Yarns.— The s P immi g and large numbers of unemp!oyed operatives are Seek - big - palis. haying no' ether source left to flee to. The export houses are doing a shade more; and now that the frost is gone, it is gene rally expected they will be more active. Prices for all - kinds are firmly maintained. Piece.—The commercial accounts by the recent arrival of the Hibernia are represented as being very favourable for business, and good orders have come over for goods made in this district, which niay assist to remove the gloom now hanging o ver th e t ra d e , an d keep the market ani mated, while the German buyers and home trade houses are less active. * HunnElisrintre—There have been a good many buyers here this week ; but as they buy only to supply their immediate , wants, the effect produced is not so great as on ordinary occa sions. lathe Cloth Hall, trade has been very flat, the state of the corn market casting a damp upon everything. Prices are still extremely low. NOTTINOII AM .-4.ce.—There has been more selling in each department since our last, than during any preceding weeds this year. Prices are firm, and the supply of plain nets qUillings, and heavy fancies is diminished. A similar demand, and without increased supply for the next month, 'would of necessity clear the market of stock, and bring things into a very healthy state. Hosiery.--There maybe noticed this week a shade of improvement in sonic of the branches of the trade,. in great measure owing to the very satisfactory news brought by the last steamer from America. Considerably more -orders have been .given out by the shippers, under the impression that there would be a scarcity of some descriptions of 'goods; the exportation of hosiery goods the last season having been far below the average of former years. The home trade re mains this month in a very quiet state. rincipally owing to the, great amount of business transacted in the month of January; so that the factors are not prepared to purchase so freely, not having cleared oft' their purchases. yarns are firm, with a coasiderable amount of business doing.—Nottingham Mercury. ' • LElcEsTan.—Both the country and London markets con , thine very fiat. The late severe weather has cleared out the winter goods in the retailer's hands, which' ' though it has kept • them-back from making their spring purchases, will have sup plied funds for that purpose, their trade being in a - very healthy state. Inquiries are making about shipping goods, and a few . orders have been received. Worsted Yarns are dull of sale. and some Mills are working. short time. Wools are flat, and a shade lower in price.—Leiccsier Journal: • UNIQUE SPECIMEN OF NEEDLEiVORK.—We had yes terday the pleasure of privately viewing a specimen of needlework, intended as a present to her most gracious . Majesty the - Queen, at the establishment of Mr. Lazarus of Bold-street, which will bear comparison with any simi lar work extant ; indeed, we believe it far surpasses anything hitherto attempted in this country. The design is exceedingly effective. In the foreground, beautifidly relieved, is a:King Charles spaniel - (a likeness of one of the royal favourities), and, immediately behind, a deeply inoulded' . pedestal, over which is peering; in grace ful beauty of nature, a gigantic group of flowers, of the most brilliant, but harmonizing colours. The distance is filled in with a softened but effective' view of Windsor Castle. The work is executed - on a piece of silk canvas, wholly with Berlinwool, and has occupied nearly three years in completion. The great perfection to which this production Is brought, renders It rather a work of art than one of mechanical skill, for throughout there is . as . Mitch regard paid to true colouring 'and composition drawing as is requisite in , produ cing a fine painting--indeed all who view it are com pletely astonished. We miderstand that Mr. Lazarus has kindly offered to present it to the Queen, and that her Majesty, through Lord Sandon, has been graciously pleased to accept it ; but the ladies will be glad `to learn ' that prior to its being sent from Liverpool Mr.. Lazarus will have an exhibition of the choice specimens of needle.. work, With:which his establishment abounds,' and that on one of the days selected for that exhibition this rare and 'exquisite piece will decorate the walls. HMI! LIFE - IN KENTUCKY.—From a work named ". Echoes from the (American) Backwoods," we take the following amusing anecdote Some good stories we have illustrative of high life in Kentucky. A man who had feasted his eyes upon a fair lady's graceful form, and followed her through the mazy 'dance, at last ejaculated with great emphasis--` By Jams ! that gal's worth spoons, so I guess dance with her.' On the conclusion of the set, the yentkman's :elf-introduction ran as follows— ' Miss ; will you dance with: use 01i the young lady's declining, be exclaimed, Well, you are not so handsome but what you mivid; and if you 'have got a friend or Iwo ther iii the room, I'll whip him by And at a nothr ball which had cone on with great spirit up to a ccrt h m: time of the night, • and fair partners and mint kiler • had their effect upon the disciples of Davy Cro:lct The pipers load, and louder bleu - , The dancers quick and q tit t; a e nk ; es t. e s o,f u : a. - . co l n d t el ks i t ;;;;; , la: for }mirrie d. h el a ai s tat k ing iss --- ed ` na Ge y n w tle if t e n . e , n, O th f o ;ci be r Ls . , and all tl search to k tong.it of tak ing lace th f e o m t s, m l u v ff e, s, o b s r wsliaenndtit:ePP.Lietti.gir, ni suddenly made his re-appearance, and taking up a pwition i n th e midst of, the room, called out, Gentlemen, tare ball may go on again . ; Captain Harris has helm:yeti like a gentle man ; he has uolfa , We ample satisfactiOn,' by-- ! he has. given me live 3 . ~;}~ w A I ►any )f a re is' ►s ures yen, The no" lack Ire- Lica- f s y at - .
