A woman f u Was intending to perform her devotions in the South ' l „ r cb, being und er some unknown influence, probably chloroform kind, felt herself more powerfully af tt;V by the blandishments of Morpheus than the at es of the sermon, and in consequence resigned as t f e tf entirely to the embraces of the patron of poppies tre ° P i nn 3 • At the conclusion of the services the con- R eg departed, and in due time the church-doors e t Locked affording an undesired asylum for the night dis c iple of Somnus. in the course of the evening ae'llwoke, no doubt wondering where she was, and also wondering what kind of bed it was that she was lastg upon, and en d eavoure d t o p rocure a id by s h ou ti ng sh: 4 9, but in vain.

MISCELLANEOUS. We regret to learn that Mr. Templeton, so long famous in Scottish (as well as English) songs, has suffered from a stroke of paralysis. Circulars have been issued from the Home-office, in pursuance of a parliamentary address, to all the town clerks in the kingdom, requiring a return of all municipal electors within their respective boroughs. Recently at the Reading county court, damages were awarded against. the Great Western Railway Company, for injury done to a quantity of meat conveyed by them. The meat had been spoiled in consequence of the trains being five or six hours behind time. In the course of a scuffle between two men in a public house, at Leeds, on Monday week, ono hit off the lower lip of the other. The wounded man will have great diffi culty in eating, drinking, and speaking in consequence ; and his assailant has been committed to the sessions for trial, charged with assault. , It is computed that upwards of £30.000 a-year will be saved to the treasury by the discharge of clerks in the various post-offices of Great Britain and Ireland, whose services will be dispensed with, in consequence of not allowing ary money to be received (torn the Ist November for payment of letters, as all letters must thencefo r th be paid by postage stamp heads. A boatman has been murdered at Cruden, seven miles from Peterhead, by an intoxicated ruffian, who, seeing a light at night in the bedroom, insisted that the place was a public-house ; and, on the deceased opening the door, he received a blow on the head from a stick, that felled him dead. The murderer, who is in jail awaiting his trial, urges that he was too drunk to know what he was doing. A woman at Chelsea has narrowly escaped being placed in her coffin alive. Mrs. Benham had been under treat ment for an internal disease for some time ; she fell into a state of torpor on Saturday week ; and through the three succeeding days she remained without signs of life—all thought her dead. On Tuesday afternoon a coffin arrived ; but at that critical point signs of animation returned, and now the patient is gradually recovering. On Tuesday her Majesty held an investiture of the Bath at Windsor, when Lieut.-Colonel Reid, of the Royal En gineers, Lieut.-Governor of Malta. and Mr. Commissioner Mayne, of the Metropolitan Police, were made Civil Knight Commanders of the Bath, and having been duly knighted received from her Majesty the riband, badge, and star of the order, and, kissing hands, rose from their knees respectively Sir Wm. Reid and Sir Richard Mayne, Civil Knights Commander of the Bath, for their services at the Exhibition. At the Central Criminal Court, London, Freiherr von Forster, a foreigner. who described himself as the Knight of Starkedburg, and Adjutant of the Ist Regiment of Prussian Dragoons, charged with stealing three £2O notes, the property of Mr. Jourdan, one £lO note, and one £5 note, the property of Mr. Prevost, of Ghent, 'rom the York-hotel, New Bridge-street, Blackfriars, has been sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment, with advice to leave the country as soon as it expires, for fear he should be indicted for other misdemeanours of a similar character. An awful instance of the uncertainty of human life has occurred in the sudden and melancholy death, from con gestion of the brain, of Mr. Robert Cuff, Mayor of Chard, on Tuesday evening last. On the day of his death, he was about the town as usual, but in the afternoon com plained of more than ordinary pain in his head, and a little before eight, after smoking a pipe, he was seized with a kind of apoplectic fit, from which, notwithstanding prompt medical aid, he expired in about three quarters of an hour, not once recovering his consciousness.—Exeter Gazette. _ _ Two burglars have broken into the farm-house of Miss Nicklin, at Portway, between Oldbury and Halesowen, and used great violence to the inmates, and committed robbery. Mr. Nicklin, the aged brother of Miss Nicklin, was beaten in his bed with bludgeons; and when he rose to grapple with the robbers, a double-barrelled pistol was fired twice in his face ; he fell down insensible, and was left by the robbers for dead. Part of Mr. Nickliu's jaw and many of his teeth were blown off, and found lyi ng on the flo , r ; but he is still alive. Miss Nicklin is wealthy ; it was apposed she had rents in the house ; and there are signs that the burglars were " persons residing in the neighbourhood." Not much propertywas secured by them. The St. Alban's Bribery Commission held their first sitting in that town on Monday. Mr. W. Slade, Q.C., the chairman, on behalf of himself and his brother com missioners, Messrs. W. Forsyth and T. Phil'. a, stated their intention to confine their inquiry at first to the last election, though they had full power to go into former ones, the exercise of which would depend upon the evi dence taken in connection with the last election. He re. minded those present, and likely to be engaged in the in quiry, that the commission had extraordinary powers, which they should not fail to use if necessary. The in quiry would be open unless they found that reports got into the newspapers, when it would become necessary for them to close their doors, a thing they did not wish to do. A policeman has been nearly murdered in Shepherd and Shepherdess fields, a haunt of thieves at Islington, Lon don. On Sunday, between two and three o'clock in the afternoon, the wounded man saw from sixty to eighty thieves, from the ages of twelve to twenty-five, gambling and quarrelling at the back of some very old almshouses on the spot alluded to, belonging to the Clothworkers' Company. Having unawares pounced on them single handed, he was immediately knocked down and his trun cheon taken from him ; is was handed from one to another of the vagabonds and he was beaten with it and other weapons until he was left for dead with frightful wounds on his head and different parts of his person ; and all this was done in view of numerous persons, who knowing the vil lains durst not interfere for fear of a similar or a worse fate. He was ultimately rescued by some other officers, and con veyed to an hospital, where he remains in a precarious state. KOSSUTH'S MOVEMENTS. SOUTHAMPTON, TUESDAY.—M. Kossuth arrived here at two o'clock from London. He was received by the Mayor and several members of the Corporation. M. Kossuth was led to an open carriage on which were emblazoned the standards of the United States of America, of England, of Turkey, and the tricolour of Hungary, by the Mayor, and was driven off to the American consulate. from which floated the stars and stripes of the States from a flagstaff. The cortege proceeded to the residence of the United States consul, the entrance to which was guarded by two policemen, who overawed a mob of fifty or sixty men, women, and children. At six o'clock M. Kossuth, escorted by a large assem blage of people, who cheered him tremendously, repaired to the banquet, which took place at the old Town-hall, over the Bargate. The name of the guest was emblazoned in flowers on the wall, the Hungarian banner from New York was suspended from the ceiling, and the walls were draped with banners—the standards of England, America, Turkey, and the municipal flags. A number of ladies in full dress were seated on the benches generally occupied by the judges, barristers, and attorneys. About 150 gentlemen sat down to dinner. While the dinner was progressing, Mr. F. O'Connor, who was seated some distance away from the principal persons, came up and addressed M. Kossuth, saying—." I love you. My heart is yours," &c., at the same time grasping his hand. The Mayor started up and said—" I can't allow this." Mr. O'Connor—Why, what's the matter? The Mayor—l won't allow this. I have been in the habit of attending at public dinners, and I can't permit any interruption of this kind ( loud cheers, and groans for Mr. O'Connor). I must request you to resume your seat. Mr. O'Connor did so, with an attempt at a smile on his face. Subsequently he rose to speak, but was put down by a volley of groans, cries of order, and hisses, and was obliged to content himself with calling for cheers for Kossuth. He left the room in the course of the evening. After grace, The Chair Man (the Mayor) rose to propose the first toast of the evening. It would be well known to Eng lishmen what that toast must be, and he was sure their foreign friends present would receive it with equal ho nour. It was the health of their lovely Queen. (Loud cheering. three times over.) Mr. Walker.—One cheer more for America. (Loud cheers.) The Chairman gave " Prince Albert and the rest of the Royal Family," with some brief allusions to the Great Exhibition. The Mayor, in proposing " The Sublime Porte and the Sultan of Turkey," said that in giving this toast he felt a little egotistical, as, when the company last met in this ancient hall around the festive board, it was to do honour to some gallant admirals and officers who had come over to England from Turkey on a mission of peace and good will. The Chairman next proposed " The President of the United States." The Chairman, in a fervent and much-cheered speech, proposed " Our illustrious guest, Louis Kossuth." (Great cheering, again and again.) - - M. Kossuth then addressed the company at consider able length, and ended by saying -4 beg leave to ask you to charge your glasses. (Loud applause.) It is to the future of my country that I devote the activity which I have regained by my liberty from the bondage in Asia ; and this my liberation is, in the first place, due to the noble feelings of the Sultan, who, in spite of the arrogant threats of Russia and Austria, has protected my life and the lives of my companions —who later yielded, but with sorrow, to the pressure of the circumstances which had forced him to surround his hospitality by detention, and who at last, raising himself by the magnanimity of his inspirations, and his respect for the rights of humanity above all threats, restored me to liberty in the most dig nified manner. But, expressing my grateful acknow ledgements to Turkey, I may also return my deeply felt thanks for the magnanimous interference of the govern ments of Great Britain and the United States of America in such a high and generous manner, supported by the public spirit of the people in both countries, and even sanctioned by the magnanimous resolution of congress, in obtaining the liberation of myself and of my associates. It is therefore with the warmest feelings of a grateful heart I propose the toast—" England, the United States, and Turkey." The conclusion of the speech was hailed with loud ap plause, and the toast was duly honoured. Colonel Lawrence off ere d t h e following sentiment : " May the star of freedom in Hungary, though now dim, yet culminate and shine in the zenith ; and may the Hungarians, as a people, be yet re -united in the land of their fathers." (Hear.) Lord D. Stuart returned thanks for the English branch of the toast, Mr. Jourdain, the Ottoman consul, who was set down for Turkey, not being present. KOSSUTH IN LONDON. On Thursday, Kossuth rode through the principal streets of the metropolis to Guildhall, to receive the address of the corporation. He was repeatedly cheered during the whole of his progress by vast crowds of persons who lined the streets. Flags of all colours and nationalities were hung out of the windows, and the whole scene was one of the greatest excitement. M. Kossuth was intro dueed to the corporation by Lord Dudley Stuart, Mr. Bennoch, Mr. Wire, and Mr. Gilpin. After the address had been read, M. Kossuth replied most eloquently in English, assuring the Lord Mayor and others present that it was a proud moment of his life, and it was equally gra tifying to his countrymen to find himself placed in a situation of such high honour as to receive the address, which had been read so solemnly. from the corporation of the greatest city in the world, in which the Lord Mayor and common council assembled—an address which con tained such generous words. He felt the honour the greater, because it assured him that they had watched the past struggles of Hungary for freedom, which it had been his destiny to lead. He then dwelt, at great length, upon the value of municipal institutions, concluding his remarks by saying that when he should be laid low, even the very grass from his grave would appeal to England and Ame rica, and say, "Do not forget, in your proud position, those who are oppressed ; do not grudge the sacrifice to liberty. Serve those who bleed." On his return, the streets were again densely crowded, and the illustrious exile was everywhere loudly cheered. During the day the populace burnt some hundred copies of the Times in different parts of the metropolis —some even in Printing house Square, where the Times-office is situated. Kossuth dinod with the Lord Mayor on Thursday evening. Covers were laid in the long parlour for seventy. Amongst the guests present were Mr. Justice and Lady Talfourd, Alderman Wilson, M. and Madame Kossuth, the Governor of the Bank of England, Lord Dudley Stuart, M.P.,:Alderman Salomons, M.P.. Mrs. Lawrence, Mr. Sheriff Cotterell, Mr. Sheriff Swift, M. and Madame Pulsky, Mr. Cobden, M.P., Mr. and Mrs. Chaplin, Mr. Gilpin, &c., &c. The Morning Advertiser states that Kossuth will receive an address from the working classes at his residence, and that it is expected he will visit Manchester, and perhaps Liverpool. He has refused the offer of a testi monial to himself, and advised that any funds collected for that object be given to his suffering and exiled countrymen. M. Kossuth, family, and suite, will depart from Southampton on the 14th inst., by the United States mail steam-ship Washington, the offer of the Ocean Steam Navigation Company of New York to provide a free passage to America by the Washington having been accepted by M. Kossuth. Mr. William Iselin, the general agent of the New York and Havre Steam Navigation Company, has also tendered a free passage to M. Kossuth and suite by the Humboldt, as had also Messrs. Bird, Gillilan, and Co., by the screw-steamer Pioneer. The Washington has postponed the sailing to the 14th, in order that Kossuth might have an opportunity of being present at the annual ball and concert in aid of the dis tressed Poles and Hungarians, which would accordingly take place on the 13th, instead of the 17th of November, as had been originally fixed upon. Meetings to arrange about the presentation of the addresses to him are being held all over the country. It is understood that, although none of the foreign ministers or members of the government have yet for mally recognised Kossuth's visit to this country, the Foreign Secretary will take an opportunity of seeing the ex-Governor of Hungary, unofficially, before his depar ture. In consequence of debility, he had declined re ceiving any more addresses until Saturday next. On Mon day, the 10th instant, he will dine with the Mayor and Corporation of Birmingham, and on the following day he will be entertained by the Mayor and Corporation of Man chester. On the 13th he will attend the Polish ball at Guildhall, and on the 14th proceed to Liverpool, with his family, in order to embark tor the United St tes. THE MEETING IN LIVERPOOL. A public meeting was held on Thursday, in the Royal Amphitheatre, to adopt the congratulatory address to Louis Kossuth, ex-governer of Hungary, on his arrival in this country, which had been drawn up by the sub committee appointed for that purpose. The meeting was very numerously attended. Amongst the gentlemen present were Messrs. Boult, Blackburne, Broadribb, Jackson, J. Aiken, Wm. Rathbone, Geo. Holt, Ronald, Millward, M. J. Whitty, R. V. Yates, the Rev. Mr. Bishop, Mr. Boulton, Mr. Stitt, sen., Mr. Stitt, jun., Mr. Wood, Mr. J. Rott, Mr. Chas. Robertson, the Rev. J. L. Carpenter, Mr. Jas. Molynenx, Mr. Rushton. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, hoped that there was no one present whose heart did not beat high in the cause of civil and religious liberty. They were not met to interfere, however, with any political parties in foreign countries. They would maintain in violate the same principles of non-intervention with which England had lately looked upon the fantastic political freaks of France. He only wished France had acted with a respect to the rights of other nations to settle their own affairs similar to that which had been shown to her. They were met to sympathise with Kossuth—to congratulate him upon his escape from the Austrian despot and the Russian autocrat. Hungary fought for her constitution ; hers was not a revolutionary struggle, notwithstanding the vile misrepresentations to which the Times had lent its columns. (Shouts of execration.) Those vile misrepre sentations were not in accordance with the opinions of the people of England—(much cheering)—and the great Thunderer, with all its giant strength—(hisses)—would have no power to sink the sympathies of the British nation with liberty, wherever it had held up its head. (Loud cheers.) In past times, the sympathies of England's governments might perchance have been with the oppressor rather than with the oppressed ; but now England was in a much nobler position. England had now a Secretary of Foreign Affairs in Lord Palmerston—(loud cheers)—who, while he had preserved peace in England, was feared and hated by every bigot and despot throughout the world. (Tremendous cheering.) It was the duty then of English men to let Lord Palmerston know that his sentiments were backed by the people of England. (Loud cheers.) That was the object of the meeting, as well as to con gratulate Kossuth on his arrival in a land of true liberty. (Cheers.) If any were present who did not coincide with the purposes of the meeting, he trusted they would have the good taste to listen in silence to the proceedings. Mr. BLACKBURNE, who was received with loud ap plause, said that the resolution entrusted to his care, and which he was confident would meet the support of all present, was couched in the following terms :—" That this meeting, regarding LOlli9 Kossuth, ex-governor of Hungary, as the representative of that noble struggle which the brave Hungarian nation so long sustained for the preservation of their rights and liberties, desire to tender him the earnest expression of their respectful sym pathy; and, believing that in the extension of constitu tional government will always be found the best guarantee for internal tranquillity and international peace, they would hereby record their strong detestation of the reac tionary policy which now fatally marks so many of the governments of Europe." Mr. GEORGE HOLT seconded the motion. He believed that the movement in Hungary was one only to obtain a restoration of the constitutional freedom of the people, and no straining after new-fangled theories of liberty, and that, therefore, as a people in the enjoyment of an old-established and constitutional liberty, they could not do less than welcome such a hero of freedom as Louis Kossuth to the shores of England. (Cheers.) The motion was carried without a dissentient voice. Mr. CHARLES HOLLAND then moved the adoption of the address, Mr. C. E. Rawlins, Mr. P. Stuart, and Mr. Thos. Bolt being appointed to present it to Kossuth. Mr. STEWART seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously amidst loud cheering. Mr. R. YATES moved the next resolution, to the effect that the address be signed, on behalf of the meeting, by the chairman, and transmitted to Kossuth. Mr. RAWLINSON seconded the motion. He read the oath taken by the Emperor Leopold at his coronation, by which he " acknowledged Hungary to be free and inde pendent in its entire system of legislation and govern ment, not subject to any other people or any other state, but only to its own laws and institutions, and entitled to be governed only by kings crowned according to its national laws and customs." After such an oath, was not Kossuth justified in charging the House of Hapsburg with perjury ? . „ The resolution was carried unanimously. Mr. ROBERTSON GLADSTONE came forward and pro posed a vote of thanks to their respected chairman, who had that day presided over their deliberations. He re tired amidst loud cheers. Mr. J. R. JEFFREYS, in a short, pithy speech, seconded the resolution, which was about being carried by acclama tion, when a person in the pit rose to express, as a working man, his regret that the meeting had not been held in the evening, when working classes generally could, and would have attended. He also said that the working classes wished to speak and be heard in favour of Kossuth ; they valued, as much as the upper classes could do, his brave and patriotic conduct. He was desirous to commence a penny subscription for Kossuth; the adoption of this sug gestion would only be acting upon the Quaker's principle, how much do you love him ? (Cheers.) He concluded his observations by proposing cheers for Kossuth, which were given with great heartiness. The vote of thanks to Mr. Rathbone having been car ried by acclamation, that gentleman briefly acknowledged the compliment; after which the meeting separated, three cheers being given for Kossuth, and three for Mr. Rath bone, the latter gentleman calling fora similar compli ment, which was given with great enthusiasm. LONDON AND NORTHWESTERN AND MIDLAND RAIL WAYS.—Rumour asserts i that the London an d North western board is divided into two or three parties, one of which is very anxious to buy or lease the Midland, but the others are against it. One of them, w ith M r. G lyn at the head, is " dead against it." If it be so, Mr. Glyn has certainly taken the wise course. The amalgamation or lease of one by the other of these great lines is, at present at least, preposterous, esther as regards the share holders or the legislature. It may do for a rig in the market to catch the simples, but will not pass with men of business. It is all a hum.—Herapath's Journal. VAGARIES OF A ROMISH PRlEST. — Considerable sen sation has been produ ce d t hi s week amongst the Romish community by the refusal of one of the priests to officiate at the funeral of John Lockering, of Garden-place, well known as a very energetic papist. It is understood that the family of the deceased (who are in very humble cir. cumstances) had not satisfied the conditions imposed by his reverence. In their emergency they determined to have his remains interred in the consecrated ground ap propriated to members of our Protestant church, and they applied to their parochial minister, the Rev. Josiah Crofts, to officiate. He complied, and read the funeral service of our church before a very large congregation (principally Boman Catholics).—Yorkshire Gazette,. THE BLOOMER BALL. This transatlantic sect—whose professors within the month have sprung up as thick as blackberries in every part of the metropolis, and who have even spread their waves of doctrine as far as Edinburgh —appealing to the good sense of their hearers by urging on them the morality infringed by, and the expenditure and physiological evils involved in, the present style of ladies' dress, and who have hoisted as their standard of reform an article of clothing very different from the celebrated " blacksmith's apron" famed in the annals of Persia—on Wednesday night gave a grand ball at the Hanover-square Rooms. Whether this entertainment was intended as a triumphal orgy for the number of proselytes made, or to act asa lure to those still holding hack, by showing them that ladies can dance much more comfortably when unineumbered with long dresses. we shall not pretend to determine. But the proselytes did not muster strong, and we suspect that very many of the thirty or forty present were " Bloomers" for the night only, and adopted the dress as they would have put on a masquerade costume for Vauxhall, which, perhaps, would have been their more fitting arena. They certainly showed the dress to perfection, for, not being endued with any over amount of timidity, they did n display any of that awkward bashfulness that might have been expected in assuming the " Bloomer." In the dress itself there was every description of style. We are scep tical enough to doubt whether, under any circumstances, a large straw hat of the size of a small table is either a commodious or appropriate headdress for a ball room, or whether a morning polka does not suggest the idea that it ought to have been left with other wraps in the hall. But there were some who were really dressed very nicely—their clothes fitted beautifully, and ladies may depend that as much art is required in cutting out " the Bloomers" as in masculine trousers, and that till experienced milliners take the affair in hand the converts to the new dress will never look presentable. As an instance of the mal adaptation of the dress to the occasion, one of the party was dressed exactly in the manner of the young lady de picted on the " Bloomer Polka," which may be seen in every music shop window. We beg her pardon, she had no parasol, hut we are bound to state that to make up for this omission she had a hat with an extra six inches of brim. The men assembled by hundreds, including most of the officers of the Guards now in town, and outside the doors an extremely inquisitive mob collected in great force to run after every every cab and shout out " Bloomer." From the gallery, between the dances, the large concert room appeared filled by a dense mass of men, through which here and there might be discerned something sur mounted with a nodding plume, marking the place where a " Bloomer" was trying to get through the crowd. During the dances the lookers-on formed a ring four or five deep, or stood upon the benches round the room, con tracting the space for the dancers to the narrowest possible limits, and threatening to take away that little, till one or two couple, more adventurous than the rest, dashed through the ring like a steamer charging a field of ice, and made an opening. It would be uufair to saddle the " Bloomers" will all the sins committed at their ball ' • but if it•is to be taken as a specimen o f th e i r manners an d cus toms, every one we are sure would exclaim, " We'll have none of them." There is one thing they do not do—they do not observe the old proverb, "Practise what you preach." Having attended many of their lectures, we can most unhesitatingly state that the polka was denounced in the most emphatic te••ms as an indelicate and improper dance. It was brought in as an instance of one of the immodest things the fashionable world tolerated, al though the same fashion forbad them to shorten their petticoats. After having been set down in this style, who would hare expected to see it at a "Bloomer" ball. Every accession to the fair sex, when there were so few, was of course of great value, but that is no reason why they should have been cheered and crowded round on their en trance to the hinderance of the dancing or anything else. Supper may be a very exhilarating thing, but that does not excuse a battle royal in the supper room with pieces of bread and orange and jelly. In conclusion, we would say a " Bloomer" ball may be a very good thing, hut we would rather see less men and more ladies, and have them better behaved.—Times.

Considerable desire is manifested among producers to sell, but prices are not quoted any lower. Offers are still made on India account at low prices, but no nearer to the limits of the sellers. The recent purchases of yarns for India cleared off many stocks which had begun to accumulate, and there is therefore less of that class of yarn now offering. There is little doing for the Levant and Germany, except in warps for the latter market. Buyers for the home trade purchase freely, though in no large quantities. The cloth market is still dull. Some large sales have been effected for India, but at low prices, and in other classes of goods there is little animation. MANciiEsTEn IRON MARKET.—During the past week the iron market has been destitute of interest, little variation either in prices or amount of business having occurred. Freights to Runcorn and Fleetwood continue scarce and com paratively high, and this has on the whole maintained previous rates at the Lancashire ports. The absence of demand for the last two or three weeks has pretty well tested prices, and, should the wants of consumers increase, an advance in prices is extremely probable. Quotations for cash, at Runcorn, 445. 6d. to 455. ; at Glasgow, free on board, 395. to 395. 6d. BRADFORD.—On all sides we hear of the dulness of trade here, the demand for goods having fallen off very much. The prices, too, realisable are very low. Many of the manufacturers are stoppingportions of their works so as to producefewergoods. ROCHDALE.—The flannel market, instead of improving, grows worse, and the merchants buy very sparingly. The de mand for wool continues very limited, but prices are very firm, and are rather looking upward. MACCLESFIELD.—Very little variation has taken place in the state of the manufactured goods trade, the demand for both home and foreign descriptions retaining a quietness which has of late become characteristic. Stocks are light, and production is going on so leisurely as to leave no anxiety on this head, even if the present state of things continue. NOTTINGHAM.—There appears to be a gloom overhanging the staple productions of this town and neighbourhood, for which, to the full extent now prevailing, it seems difficiut to find a substantial reason. One great cause, of course, is the deranged state of monetary affairs in America, of which we have previously spoken. The continental demand, especially the German, for low goods, has fallen off considerably lately. It would appear that the depression felt here is not an isolated case, as the manufacturing interests throughout the country seem to be similarly depressed. TIDE TABLE MORN.

Of foreign, the sales are 300 bags Rio a t 3 8s, :ma a f ew b ags C osta Ri ca at 455. per cwt.—Rice : 5o tcs. Carolina sold at 178. 6d., and some small parcels of Bengal at Bs. 6d. to 10s. 6d. per cwt.—Tea : This market has been very inactive during the week ; the quantity of common Congou offoring is large, anti prices have a down , want tendency ; Od. per lb. is the quotation, but at this the ale ; mand is limited; there have been but few transactions in black ish leaf and good to fine "e!toekilids, but prices are w•it Lamm tnere is little change, but the price is rather lower; new Petersburg Y.C. has been sold at 38s. 9d. to 395., Soap at 375., and good North American at 38s. to 38s. ed. per cwt.—Lard is again lower ; about 61 tons are reported at 455. 6d. to 48s. per cwt.-30 tons Petersburg clean Hemp have realised 431, and 70 bales Manilla 445 to 445 15s. per ton. — The low prices for Jute accepted by holders have induced the trade to operate more freely, and 2200 bales have changed hands, at 49 ss. for ordinary, 410 to 410 10s. for fair common, 412 for good middling, and 411 2s. 6d. per ton for a small lot of very good. LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, OCT. 31 Holders of middling Beef have again submitted to a further reduction ; a few sales have been effeceed, but the market is without animation, and the stock much in excess. In Pork the transactions have been trifling, without change in prices. Bacon is wanted, and the early arrirals are likely to find eager buyers. Hams and Shoulders are working off. At a further reduction of 2s. per cwt., th e sa l es o f L ar d reach about sixty tons ; buyers operate very cautiously. There is a fair demand for Cheese, and the late ari ivals are nearly cleared off, at steady prices. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, OCT. 31 Although there has been a regular and a tolerably large de mand, the disposition on the part of the holders to meet it has been so general, that the aspect of the market has been rather inanimate than otherwise, and American, of fair quality and upwaros, are difficult of sale at id. per lb, decline, whilst the current qualities are without change. Brazil are dull, at a point in favour of the buyer. Though Egyptian of the better qualities, from their extreme scarcity, command full prices, the middle and ordinary qualities are id. per lb. lower, and are pressing upon the market in such quantities as to be almost unsaleable, the quotations being in a great measure nominal. Surat are also lid. per lb. lower The business on speculation consists of 1520 American, 80 Egyptian, and 250 Surat, and for export,422o American, 20 Egyptian, 1350 Surat, and 110 Madras.

Within the last three days we have to note a moderate increase of Wheat, Barley, and Oats, and a good supply of Oatmeal, • chietty trom ireiand and partly coastwise, but a total absence of foreign produce coming into this port during that period, except 1850 qrs. of Beans from Egypt ; while the exports of Flour continue liberal, including 5805 to the Cape of Good Hope ; and Indian Corn, although apparently in slow request upon the spot, moves gradually to Ireland. In the British and Irish markets this week the demand for Wheat in most cases is reported less active, with little change in value, and spring Grain in several instances rather dearer. During the interval since Tuesday American Flour was taken rather more freely than earlier in the week, but all other articles of the trade have been quiet at previous quotations. Upon a slender attendance of home end country millers at our Corn Exchange to-day, the transactions in either English or Foreign Wheat were very moderate in amount ; but without the sales being pressed, and holders refusing to lower their pretensions, the current rates of Tuesday remained unvaried. States and Canadian Flour, assuming a firmer tone, good and prime brands were taken freely on rather higher terms with an improving aspect, and French maintained late prices. Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease, upon a moderate demand, ruled steady in value. Oats, moving sparingly, were rather cheaper, and Oatmeal declined 3d. per load. Indian Corn dull on the spot, and floating not in active request.—The following are Tuesday's quotations : BRITISH. FOREIGN. Wheat, Is , 701 b., s. d. s. d.

I.—The Grain and Flour trade has been quiet during the week : there has been a fai: consumptive en quiry for the best qualities of each article, with a degree of firmness on the part of sellers of Wheat and Flour. Our mar ket to-day is steady, with a moderate business doing, but without transactions in any article to call for particular notice. Prices of Wheat and Flour are as on this dsy week, the demand still running very much upon the superior qualities. No varia tion in the value of Ohts, but Oatmeal rather easier to buy. Beans, Peas, and Grinding Barley firm at late rates, and not much offering of either article. PRESTON, Nov. I.—Our imports of Oats and Oatmeal from Ireland this week are to a fair amount, but the supplies of other arlicles thence or coastwise are insignificant. The trade, in the meantime, has been of a languid character, with a tendenty to lower prices. We had only a moderate supply of English Wheat at our Corn-Exchange to-day the weather being wet, many of the parcels were out of condition, and the demand for such ruled dull, at irregular prices. Fine White is scarce, and would command rather more money; and prime Red sold readily, at the extreme rates of this day se'nnight. Irish without change. Old Foreign neglected. Flour the tnrn lower. Oats supported our last currency. Farmers' Oatmeal unaltered. Irish offered more freely, at a reduction of 3d. to 6d. per load. WAKEFIELD. OCT. 31.—The supplies this week are very limited. There being a poor show of Wheat sellers have the advantage, and the full prices of last week are obtained. An ; advance of Is. per qr. is readily obtained on the finest qualities of Barley, but for general runs the demand is not brisk. Oats are id. per stone, and Shelling Is. per load dearer. Beans full as well sold. NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, Nov. I.—There was a large supply of Wheat at market to-day from the country, which met a ready sale at the extreme rates of last S a t u rd a y. Owing to contrary winds, the arrivals coastwise have been scanty, and the few parcels on offer were readily taken at the full cur rency of this day se'nnight. There was also very little choice of foreign Wheat offering in granary, as few holders are dis posed to accept present rates ; where sales were effected, full prices were realised. The late large arrival of Malting Barley being nearly all disposed of, choice parcels bring ls. per qr. advance ; Grinding descriptions were fully as dear as last quoted, with a great demand. New Oats come to market in very bad condition, and sell slowly at Is. per qr. reduction. English and Scotch Old Oats are now very scarce, and bring 6d. per qr. more money ; foreign difficult to quit, but their value is unaltered. Flour the same as last week. WISBECH, Nov. I.—There has been a fair show of Wheat here to-day, in better condition, which meets a good demand at fully the rates of last week, and the best runs Is. per qr. dearer. Oats Is. per qr. dearer. Beans, none at market. BELFAST,3I.—We had at th is morning's market a small supply of Wheat and Barley. moderate of Oats, and large of Oatmeal. Any Wh eat at all fit for sale brought a good price, whilst inferior lots were a slow sale at former rates. Oats and Barley sold freely at previous prices, and Oatmeal was a slow sale with the price in favour of sellers. Indian Corn must be quoted at a decline of 2s. 6d. per ton, and is a slow sale. CORK, Nov. 1.--The Flour market is very quiet this week. Foreign Wheats are in less request, and barely support the late improvement. Indian Corn is a dull sale. At our Corn Ex change to-day Wheat and Oats have improved a little in value. Barley is unchanged. CATTLE MARKETS LIVERPOOL, Nov. 3.—There were about 300 fewer Beasts than last week, and a small supply of Sheep, at market this day. We had a good attendance of both town and country buyers, and last week's prices were well supported. SINKING THS OFFAL. 40. 4ad. to 4id. perils. " --d. Odd. " --d. Sad. ” Sid. " 6 d. " --d. ” —d.

WAKEFIELD, OCT. 29.—At this day's market we had a large show of fat stock. The number of Beasts 680, including 85 foreign ; Sheep, 5700.
