Notwithstanding these extraordinary arrivals, combined with the more feeble state of the leading country markets last week, and the depression in London yesterday, our Corn Exchange this morning was numerously attended by town and country millers, some from distant parts of the interior; and inmost descriptions of Wheat a fair extent of business was done, at a decline of 4d. to 6d. per,7olb. from the rates of this day meek.— In w E e n v g e l r i , sli se o v r e l ra ri l sl; ,a lf i i c o e u l. r no ‘v sales ere tak e were n a at pparent ; s o u f bse American, oue nti good Western brands receded to 375. per barrel, which, indu cing price er rl w e „l e y i e aorft considerable. aelrl cquheaaipit4ei. even the millers .to buy freely, transactions at the latter t n le s n lo o w tic r e eq d, u a e n4l , e a a t ch a 'a / 3 n e d ai l is ia w it er ‘ e ce a r l e so lit i Is ß . similar abatement.

The brief interval-passing between our first and second mar kets this week affords very little scope for•remark, beyond a better feeling exhibited relative to Flour and Indian Corn, and a fair amount of business transacting in the latter at improving rates. In consequence of to-morrow being Good Friday, our market was held this morning, whiA, although a day out of the usual course, was well attended by purchasers.—Upon a moderate demand and tolerable firmness in the Wheat trade,.the prices of Tuesday were fully maintained, and in a few cases slightly exceeded.—American Flour cot - it - inning in lively request, sales of upwards of 30,000 barrels were reported to-day at 375. to 38s, partly to country millers, to consumers here, to Irish buyers, and for shipment to Lisbon, the market for Western brands ending steadily at 38s per barrel. Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease, upon a very limited inquiry, hardly 'Sustained our last quotations.--,Oats, being still much neglected, were somewhat depressed it value, and Oatmeal merely supported late price's. The great decline last week in the value of Indian Corn hav ing given renewed confidence to the trade, buyers for Irish ac count came forward eager again to-day, and • 485. to 525. per 4801 b. was readily obtained ; Indian Meal, likewise, would have been taken freely at 255. per barrel, but the samples being generally held for higher prices, or withdrawn from Sale, the transactions were unimportant. With occasional showers last week and a copious rain on Sunday, the operations of agriculture in this district were pro gressing favourably, but are completely interrupted to-day by a very heavy fall of snow from an early period of the morning, and continuing unabated at the present hour, 3 p.m. • !;., TIIE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

PLAN SHE\ C Entrance The interesting proceedings, of which the town of Birkenhead was yesterday the scene, well calculated as they have been to impress themselves permanently upon the memory of all those by whom they were witnessed, will in all probability be forgotten by the next generation, and left recorded only by a few passing remarks. by the historian. But the objects which those proceedings were 'designed to celebrate—for which the noble, the eloquent, the elevated in worth, in wealth, and in beauty, were yesterday attracted together—will remain as monuments of the enterprise which has called them into being. Be fore proceeding with our duty, as journalists, of giving to our readers a description of those proceedings, and of the various works which they were intended, as it were, to usher into public usefulness, we may be pardoned if we glance back for a few moments upon the past condition of the locality, and thus enable the reader to estimate the amount of that enterprise which has produced the splendid and triumphant results which we now see around us. From a very old inhabitant of Birkenhead, Captain Lace, (and it is a singular fact that close to Birken head Ferry, where Captain Lace resides, the two oldest captains out of the port of Liverpool, Captain Lace himself, and Capt. Ferguson, are at present living,) we have derived the following interesting particulars of the locality as it existed upwards of GO years ago. In 1792, when Mr. Lace first went out of this port Captain of the ship " Joshua," as he has shewn •us from his diary, Birkenhead consisted of the old priory, the house of Mr. Price, lord of the ma nor, a little to the north-west, probably near to the top of Ivy-street, and a small fisherman's hut upon the shore, not visible from Mr. Price's house, and between the pre sent Monk's and Woodside ferries. A house was at the time in course of erection, by Dr. Rowlandson of Chester, upon the site of the present Monk's Ferry ; and one story was reared. There were also two or three cottages to the north of Woodside Ferry. The ferry itself was first kept by Mr. Blundell ; next by Mr. Roberts, who was suc ceeded by Mr. Williams. Its later occupants will be re membered by most of our readers. The first steamer to ply to the ferry was built in 1807, by Mr. Geo. La French. She was laid down upon the model of an Otaheitean boat with two sterns from amidships, the paddle working be tween, and the deck being railed over above. She was named the Etna ; and her first freight was a few cart-loads of hay. OPENING OF TUE BIRKENHEAD Di&ES,.

It contained in 1801 only 101 inhabitants ; and at the end of twenty years it had only increased to a population of 200 souls. From this period the establishment of regular ferries, and subsequently of steamers, enabled it to progress ; and it was extensively resorted to by the inhabitants of Liverpool and others, from the.excellence of its hotels,' and for the recreation of the sail across the river. Up to the year 1838 it had increased its.population so as to number 5057 inhabitants. And now commenced the developement, in Birkenhead and its neighbourhood, of that energetic and well-directed enterprise, -which has produced the results which we have to . describe. A few spirited capitalists entered upon the task of developing the resources of the locality. Amongst the first of these were the Messrs. Jackson and the Messrs. Laird, and they have . subsequently been joined in their efforts by Wm. Potter, Esq., and other influen tial parties ; and to these gentlemen belongs a large por tion of the ownership of the land, the buildings, and the works of the various kinds now rising up. During the last five years the progress made has been wonderful, and the locality a perfect hive of busy indus try. Streets, squares, markets, churches, and public buildings have sprung up as if by magic ; until, at the close of the past year, the town contained 99 streets (or nearly as many streets as the number of its population in 1801), the total length of which is 29 miles 110 yards, of which 26 miles 860 yards are sewered ; and the total population of the town has risen to 18,210 souls. But it is not alone in the growth of streets and population that Birkenhead has progressed. Since the period when the town began to be materially extended, it has been pro vided with a railway approach to Birmingham, London, and the whole South and West of England. The exten sion of that railway approach to the new docks and ware houses, which was yesterday opened, we shall hate to describe hereafter. A pool (Wallasey), which for ages has served only to absorb a portion of the tidal waters, to be returned at the reflux of the tide, leaving some hundreds of acres of barren mud to send up their noxious vapours to permeate through and infect the atmosphere around, is fast being converted into docks, in which fleets may shortly ride safely at anchor, with valuable quay room and building land for their accommodation. One of these docks, and the handsome and commodious warehouses attached to it, we shall have also to describe to our•readers as yesterday opened to the public. • In addition to these adjuncts to the mercantile progress of the locality, the Commissioners of Birkenhead and the influential gentlemen connected with it have not been inattentive to the recreation and health of the population which they have been gathering around them. Upon the site of a most unpromising tract of land, north-west of ' the town; a splendid park is now completed, and was yesterday opened with the usual formalities. Of this place, now rivalling some of the most beautiful localities of the sort in the kingdom, we shall also have to furnish a description, as well as of the beautiful erections and building sites which have been provided in its neighbour hood. Upon one subject, connected with the direction of the enterprise -of the Birkenhead people, we cannot refrain from tendering them our humble meed of compliment. Pari passe with the business enterprise which has been so signally displayed in the progress made in the town ship, it is pleasing to see that care for the supply of the religious wants of the community here congregated, and to be increasingly congregated, has not been wanting. Those who have watched the growth of this place—those who yesterday Visited its principal points of note—cannot ING THE SUITE OF ROOMS IN WHICH THE DEJEUNER AND BALL TOOK PLACE. have failed to notice the beautiful erections now rising to the honour of God and for his worship, in various portions of the town and its park and outskirts, the work of indi vidual munificence. It is pleasing to witness such a re cognition of the truth that man may sow, but that it is God who giveth the increase. Private speculations car ried out in such a spirit deserve success, and, we trust, will achieve success. With this brief introduction to the topics of the mo mentous day which we have just seen passed in festivities deserving of the occasion, and promoted with a liberality most creditable to the authorities of Birkenhead and of all parties concerned, we must now proceed to a descrip tion of the various works ; and, first in order, we proceed to give a description of /` BANKRUPTS.

STATE OF T4I,ADE. MANCH ESTER.—There is no material change in our market since Tuesday. On the _whole there is perhaps not quite so much business doing, though a general disposition to give out orders to a moderate extent -is still apparent. Shirtings are in quired after, but no very extensive sales can be effected in them except at the current prices of last week. In very few instances has any decided advance yet been established upon old rates. Manufacturers generally, however,- are disposed to be firm, and in some cases consider it more -prudent to refuse to accept orders, unless on somewhat better terms. The intelligence re ceived from India, in anticipation , of the Overland mail, will tend to improve this favourable feeling. In the Yarn market no alteration can be noted. ROCHDALE. -Our market this week was very well attended but the failure of one of the Flannel manufacturers for the sum of about £lOOO, had the effect of -contracting business in the early part of the day, but in the afternoon there was a good demand for all sorts of Flannels„ at last week's prices. The Wool market was much the same. LEEDS.—About a late average amount of business has been done both in the Cloth Halls and the warehouses this week. The demand is still for the lower •qualities of goods, suited to the America trade. A fair amount of goods have also changed hands for the home trade. There ds no alteration in prices. HUDDERSFIELD.—The market has been a fair average one this week, without any feature of change worthy of notice. HALIFAX.—A better feeling 'has been manifested in the staple trade of this town this week, and a shade more business has been done, but we cannot notice any change in prices. The stock of long Wool in the market is diminishing, without any temptation in price to purchase to replace it, as no advance can be established. Hogs are scarce. In short Wools there is less doing, and purchasers. buy with great caution ; but the prices are decidedly firmer. BRADFORD.—WOOL—The demand during the week past has been very similar to several preceding; the inquries being chiefly for full bred Wools, for , which late rats are steadily maintained. Noils and Brokes are in full request, without change in price. Yarns.—The transactions in Yarns, both for home consumption and expert, .are on the increase, and the spinners generally working to order, with small stocks on hand. On some kinds a shade more is ,demanded. Pieces.—A fair business continues to be done in • Orleans and Cobour!s, with out change in prices. Neat styles, suitable for the autumn, in fancy goods, are inquired for by the shipping houses. NOTTINGHAM.—Lace: There is:but little change to report in the market for this article. Prices remain as at our last re port. Fancies of new and good patterns find a fair sale, and at moderate prices. Muslin lace goods are more sought after ; and if there arrive, as is confidently'expected, in a few weeks, good orders from America, the buyers will find them scarce and of more value. Yarns are likely to rule for this year not lower than at present.—Hosiery : We have very little altera tion to notice in the trade this week. For the season of the year the demand for the home market continues very languid, and with no disposition on the part•of buyers to purchase so freely as we have noticed in former seasons. The glove trade har E . , , li c e t r s c , h h ry .: T 1 the e is in full activity. We hear also, in the drawer and Shirt branch, have been in — of a partial demand for some light shipping goods.—Notling nstriiknegt d fr e o m m a n b d o - t is h - - sti 11 Londondul dull. a n Several e v m e r a a n l buy ersch es ter houses, but the greatest caution is evinced by the extent of their purchses. A good many hands in. the common branches are out of employ. Stocks of yarns to the frames h av i ng been principally employed upon cotton are accumulating, owing for some time ; but now as they will be going woollen goods, it is fai r t o calculate thAtok u s p o o f n y " a . i?r r _ s % t -n i l a rt . l increase. Prices in yarn s an d wool:. are.stationary.—....eiice.neor Mercury. GLASGOW.—Cotton Yarn : Our market has assumed a better aspect, in so far as sales are more easily made, but any ad vanced rates are very difficult to obtain.---Cotton Goods : The market still continues very quiet for goods generally, and prices low, but without any encouragement to speculate ; and both manufacturers and merchants are acting cautiously.—lron Bars £lO, plates ..el3, sheets £lO, nail rods ze I I, rails £lolos. pig .;63 .is. 6d.—Examiner.

It will be in the recollection of our readers, that, (ac cording to a typographical plan, presented to them by us in October, 1814,) the Commissioners purposed to con struct, and obtained parliamentary sanction to proceed with, a number of dock works on the Mersey, between Woodside Ferry and Seacombe,—which works were, in addition to the sea or river enclosure, to comprise a :Great Floating Dock, running up, or being in what is called Wallasey Pool,—the latter alone having an area of 150 acres with a large depth of water. It will be also recol lected that the Birkenhead Dock Warehousing Company, who possessed the whole belt of land on the south side of the pool, up to what is called " Corporation-road," pur posed to construct warehouses, yards, quays, &c:, of the most approved description, for the anticipated traffic and convenience of the town. These objects have to a great extent been now accomplished : two of the inner docks have been completed, the outward, or inner wall-work is in rapid formation, and the warehouses may be said to be more than half finished, and already tenantable. The two docks already constructed are the " Passage Dock," near . Woodside Ferry, and the " Bridge End Dock," now so called from its being on the site of a small valley, formed originally by a rivulet, or more cor rectly by a creak or armlet of the sea, the tide having passed up it, under a bridge, time out of mind. The walls of both of the new docks are built of red freestone, principally quarried on the ground,' and with ashler bindings. There are a number of arches (facing the river) of the upper dock, on each side of a tongue forming a quay running westward, which protect the mouths of the sluices, intended to scour out the- Great Basin, yet to be constructed on the east. These arches, apparently about twenty in all, and also the piers, are beautifully built of Bolton and Longridge stone. The whole of the hollow of the gates are of Anglesey lime stone, as well as the rubbing-bands round the piers and entrances. There are two sluices on each side of a thirty feet lock for scouring the outer basin. The bridge across the seventy-foot passage is to have three roads—two for carriages, and one for the extension of the Chester and Birkenhead railway. To the quays and landing slips of the Great Low Water Basin, the whole of the stone work is set with mortar of the best quality, and for elegance of design, and substantial execution, is not to be excelled in th e king dom. The dock gates into the " Passage Dock," out of. the Woodside Basin, are principally constructed of green heart, and are as strong and substantial as timber and metal can make them. The entrance is 50 ft. wide in the clear, and the sill the same depth as that of the Prince's Dock. The other entrance is seventy feet wide., The water was first let into the docks on Saturday evening week (March 27). Such is the firmness of the work, that the leakage upon the large area, of seven to eight acres, did not exceed half an inch within the twelve hours. We have heard, but cannot vouch for the precise accu racy of the statement, that the force of the water for the cleansing purpose stated will be equal to 480 horse-power. On Friday, at high water, there was a depth of about twenty-three feet of water at the south entrance. From the dock works and the adjacent build ings and streets, the whole aspect of Birkenhead—so re cently almost a barren shore—has become completely changed and renovated, when we regard the Woodside and Monk's Ferry, the town itself, and especially the ope rations along the coast and penetrating into Wallasey Pool. A magnificent line of sea wall, with quay space three hundred feet wide, will be formed to the river from Woodside to Seacombe, and this, it is understood, by nautical and scientific men, will, in place of injuring the navigation of the port, conduce to the outward scouring of the outer channels, by the clearer reception and dis charge, (from the great basin of the Mersey towards Run corn) of the tidal flow. We were much struck on our vi sit to the locality on Saturday with the pleasing prospects that everywhere presented themselves, both land and marine. From a point at the north end of the now con structed docks, the view was, notwithstanding the unu sual inclemency of the weather at this advanced period of the spring, truly delightful. Liverpool had the best of it —the sun impinging upon her buildings, spires, and other erections, and giving the whole a silvery and beautiful ap pearance, which a narrow inspection of her inlets, outlets, streets, courts, would scarcely justify. Westward were to be seen the rising land of Birkenhead and the conjoining townships, terminating in the ridge of hill known as Bidston, and southward, as well as northward, the wide expanse of the Mersey, studded with vessels of all kinds at anchor or quiescence, or bearing numbers of others on his bosom under full sail or steam. Directly " opposite " to the Birkenhead Docks—but we hope all jealousy on that score will die out—we observed most clearly and distinctly the Albert Dock warehouses ; the dome of the Custom-house ; St. George's spire ; the dome of the Town-hall; the beautiful Gothic tower of St. Ni cholas ; the top of the dome of St. Peter's ; the immensely tall chimney of the vitriol-works in Vauxhall-road—" that bristle on the back of nature "—and beyond these the structures on Everton heights, Bootle, Waterloo, &c. The most romantic and insatiate eye had wherewithal to feed upon. THE WAREHOUSES, These are situated at the north side of the docks, and form a street towards Wallasey Pool. Twelve of them are already built, in one block, and six more are in course of erection. They are only two stories high—the first story twenty-one feet in height, and the second about fourteen feet. They reach backwards, from the street, 146 feet, and 46 feet wide. There are jigger lofts at each end, with four doors for receiving and discharging, and a railway from the docks to each door, with tern tables. The architect was Mr. Rendal. The lower floors are asphalted, the roofs are well timbered, and there are patent skylights in the upper rooms. No pains, 'indeed, have been spared to render the whole most available and easy for commercial purposes. The ground is well drained, and consequently dry. The brick work (of which the warehouses are chiefly composed) was executed by Messrs. Morris and Hilton, .and appears to us to have been attended to with great care and credit to them—strangers to us. The walls are t)ftic a thickness (21 bricks below, and three feetthick be ! hereafter the lower wall,) that the warehouses may ea raised to any requisite height. This day (Tuesday) a superintendent of the works r. Salter, g t i h v e i : g mr s e t n ab ou il s it e y s. architectural are indebted fo r m cargo of cotton will be received into the premises.
