To meet this desolation, and to show how completely suitable is the Lord Jesus Christ to all its exigencies, appears the purport of these admirable dis courses. Whilst the godhead of the Saviour is maintained in all its perfection and majesty, his sympathy and tender ness are the more immediate theme of the pages under " It is of the utmost consequence," says Mr. to distinguish between sinfulness and those con ,..iences of s:— Deformity is no sin ; pain, notice.

To give point and power to this inestimable truth—the verity of o ur Saviour's human feelings, attachments, and dis anpointments—Mr. M'Neile has selected several instances recorded in the sacred narrative. In the first lecture we have brought before us an illustration of the Saviour's distress of mind, being, in some degree, softened by the seasonable ex ercise of human sympathy ; the object of the second lecture is to show how p ossible it was, deeply to wo und the heart of both as regards pr ivate friendship, and the the son of God , sacred cause in which he was engaged ; in the third lecture, the fall and dissimulation of the Apostle Peter ar3 dwelt upon, in order to show how deeply our Lord could suffer from disappointrnent •; the fourth lecture invites our attention to the same heavenly being enduring trial and temptation the following extract from the fifth from the fallen s p irits ; " The suffering of l ec ture will g i ve its drift and tendency :—ivot on which the government of God Christ is the mo ral p turns.

The complaint which we made against the March number of Blackwood, of the want of political interest, certainly can not be urged against the number before us, for we have here no less than three articles on subjects which affect our inter nal and external affairs. One of these articles is on the Practice of Agriculture. being a review of " Stephens' Book of the Farm," in which the doctrine is thoroughly established that s kilful practice is applied science. This is unques tionably true, but we fear that by what is called „skilful p rac tice" the interest o f large capitalist farmers will be more promote d than that of the individual cottag e holder who has his rood of land. A steam- engine , with its a ttendant es tablishment, and a chemical laboratory, , are colossal howeve r the science of agriculture may be the reby imp dependent upon his labour alone ; so that we are inclined to take excep tion to some portions of " The Book of the Farm," and its review in Blackwood, unless we are to understand that those agencies are likely to be made more popular. If they are not, mere labour will be completely overwhelmed by the power of capital, and we should tremble for the permanence o e f those happy homesteads which it is a great portion of the steam-engine of townspeople to see in the country.

Thomas Davies, who for a long period has most assidu ously and zealously performed the duties attached to his sa cred office as curate at Pontypool, a populous town in the parish of Trevethin. The livings have been resigned with the understanding that Llanover Talywayn and Mamhilad are to be detached from the mother church, and a separate incumbent appointed to each benefice.

The annual meeting of the proprietors _dove com pany was held on Friday at the London Tavern. There was p. full attendance of proprietors. Mr. Irving presided. The Chairman, in opening the business of the day, said when they last met in that room it was announced to them f the al t the directors were about to enter into a new plan for xecution of the business of the company. He was sappy to say that through that plan order had arisen out of disorder, and that the directors had been enabled to carry into practical effect those expectations which they gave the proprietors reason to look for—(hear, hear), inasmuch . as they had carried out regularly the departure of their ers, and that an adjournment take place to the 10th of April. Captain SWEENEY seconded the motion. Several other shareholders addressed the meeting, and complained of the imperious character of persons employed in the service of the company, and the general extravagance of the management. The CHAIRMAN denied that there was any foundation in fact for the imputations which had been thrown out against these officers of the company. It was ultimately moved as an amendment that the report be adopted and printed for circulation amongst the proprie tors Several of the proprietors said it would be much more sa tisfactory to have the reports and accounts printed, and cir culated among the proprietors a few days before the annual meeting. The amendment was then put and carried by a considera ble majority. Two directors, who retired by rotation, were re-elected, and a vote of thanks having been given to the chairman, the meeting separated. THE ANTI-CORN -LAW LEAGUE AND THE MANUFACTURERS. • and the arrival of them at Southampton ; and they had been enabled also, at the same time, to deliver the mails at the various ports at the periods when they were expected to ar rive —(hear). He trusted that, so far, this would be satis factory ; and be might be permitted to add, that they be lieved they had increased the efficiency of the undertaking, and considerably economised its management. (Cheers.) He had further to mention, that recently the directors had been engaged in negotiations with the Government, and which had been lately brought to a satisfactory conclusion. By this result the directors believed that the interests of the com pany would be materially served. He was bound to state that in their intercourse with Government the directors bad found nothing but a spirit of the greatest concord—a spirit which manifested very distinctly the desire which the Go vernment had that the society should not only be permanent, but that it should be worked profitably and satisfactorily to those interests which more immediately concerned them, the proprietors. (Cheers.) He was bound to say so much, and he was sure that when they beard the concessions that had been made, they would feel he was justified in making the observations that had just fallen from him. It only remained for him to call upon the secretary to read the report of the directors. The following is a copy of the report : " In fulfilment of the pledge given at the former general meeting, and in compliance with the company's charter, the directors have called the shareholders together to place be fore them a full statement of the past transactions of the company, its present position, and what are its prospects. " Feeling assured that the most candid course will be that which will best entitle them to public confidence, and to the support of the proprietors, the directors are desirous that no point shall be left unexplained, and that every individual who may have an interest in the concern may be furnished with means to form a judgment as to the probability of its ulti mate success. " It is now generally if not universally admitted that the original project of the company embraced too extensive a sphere of operation ; that its calculations, whether as related to the number of ships required, to the work they could per form, to the practicability of their visiting all the specified places, to the adequate security of the ports of assemblage, to the cost of building, outfit, and maintenance of the ships, and to the amount of revenue likely to be realised, were all of too sanguine a character, and that the receipts in particu lar were dependent more on eventual than immediate results. " In this position the directors, as stated in their first re port, brought the matter under consideration of her Majesty's Government, with a view to obtain either an additional grant of money or such a reduction of the steaming, and conse quently of the expense, as might afford a reasonable prospect of making the contract remunerative. Convinced from the accounts furnished by other steam associations that the com pany could not proceed without assistance, the Government permitted such curtailment of its operations as encouraged the directors to propose, and the proprietors to acquiesce in, a perseverance with the undertaking. " Accordingly the new scheme of routes was adopted, all the foreign agencies and establishments were revised, and placed upon a more economical footing, the ships' wages and other disbursements were reduced, and all means taken to diminish expenditure and to bring the company's affairs into a more satisfactory position. Many of these changes being necessarily gradual, the results are not as yet fully developed, but some idea may be formed of their probable extent from this consideration, that during the first three quarters of a year after the commencement of the contract service, the expenditure amounted to £24,603 per month, while in the last quarter of the year 1842 the disbursements did not ex ceed £17.466 per month, thus showing a saving per month of £7,137, and no doubt can exist that the measures since adopted will ensure a further diminution. " The alteration from the first plan, in reducing the extent of voyages. reduced the number of ports to be visited by the company's ships, as well as the frequency of their calling at other places; but the directors are happy to state, that their anticipations, as to no loss of revenue being likely to arise from that cause, have been realised, the amount of passage money and freight having increased instead of diminished under the new arrangement. " Although it was difficult to devise means for bringing the ships abroad into their proper positions for commencing the new plan of service, yet this was successfully accom plished ; and at the termination of six months' trial, it affords the directors satisfaction to state, that no instance has oc curred of the company's regular ships being more than three days before or after the time allowed as a maximum for their voyages, and this punctuality was acknowledged by the Se cretary of the Admiralty, in moving the estimates for the present year in the House of Commons. " To those acquainted with the construction and outfit of steam-vessels, their complicated machinery, and the de rangements frequently experienced at the commencement of their career, it will appear not only unusual, but perhaps unprecedented either in a Government or mercantile marine, that so many ships, equal if not superior in size and power to any now employed, should have performed voyages of such vast extent for the first year and a quarter without any casualty to the engines, except the breakage of one eccentric rod, which was repaired on the spot, without causing any material delay to the ship. " Although, under the first scheme of routes, the company had the misfortune to lose two of its ships, it is a source of gratification to state, that since the new plan came into ope ration in the West Indies none of the ships have touched the ground, or received the slightest injury arising out of the navigation they have now encounter. " Symptoms of dry-rot have appeared in two of the ships ; they have been docked, thoroughly examined, and repaired, all vestiges of vegetation eradicated, and both the vessels are now on their voyages to the West Indies. It may be proper the proprietors should know that the cost of these repairs will not in the aggregate exceed £ll,OOO, but the expenses occasioned by this circumstance have been increased by the company having to pay a penalty of £3,500 for not having a ship ready at the appointed day to receive the outward mails to Falmouth, and by chartering a ship to make one voyage to St. Thomas's and back while the before-mentioned two ships were undergoing repair. " One of the ships built at Bristol has proceeded to the West Indies since the last general meeting, and the other is on the eye of her departure from Bristol for Southampton, her machinery having already been tried in the dock, and reported efficient. Although the company's ships, as stated, have performed their routes under the new system with great regularity, yet experience has shown that too little time is allowed for reply ing to correspondence, at the returning points of the respec tive routes—namely. Jamaica, Demerara, and Trinidad. To remedy this inconvenience, and, at the same time, to reduce still further the expenditure of the company, certain modifications of the plan had been proposed to, and highly approved of by, the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, which will insure at least seven clear days for collecting the homeward mails at all those places. By this arrangement, also, Barbadoes will again have its mails direct from England, and longer time allowed to communicate with Guiana, as well as being afforded an opportunity of replying to its European correspondents by the packet immediately departing home ward. Berbice will have ample time to receive and return its mail overland through Demerara, and a direct communi cation will be established both ways between Jamaica and Havana, instead of the route to windward being circuitous as at present. A more direct course has likewise been pre scribed for the ships returning•to England, and there are many other advantages to the public and to the company comprehended in this modified plan, not the least of which, as respects the future, is a further curtailment of steaming, amounting to at least 40,000 miles per annum. " The directors having thus made a general statement in reference to the service they have to perform under their contract, proceed to detail the financial position of the cons. Pang. " The number of shares issued was 14,840, and the calls have been paid in full on 13,878, and on the remaining 962 shares some of the calls have been paid to the extent of £33,900 ; 600 of these 692 were issued to Acramans and Co., and are the subject of litigation, and cannot, therefore, be dealt with by the company at present. The remaining 362 have been declared forfeited, and the directors cannot but consider the small number of shares which it has been ne cessary to forfeit as an indication of the great respectability of the proprietary. " The directors present a balance-sheet of the affairs of the company to the 31st December, duly audited, and also an analysis of the profit and loss account, which exhibits a loss of £79,790. 16s. 9d., including all preliminary expenses, and the loss on the Isis and Medina, amounting together to £53,668. " The amount of loans, which at the period of the last meeting was £260,000, has been reduced, as appears by the balance-sheet, to £185,000. " The balance-sheet exhibits an amount at the debit of Acraman and Co. of £137,986. 15s. Id., which consists of the payments made to them under their contract for the Severn and Avon, and the further sums disbursed by the company . for the completion of those vessels; for the excess beyond the contract price and extras, authorised by the directors, a claim will be made on the estate of the contractors. " As regards the future working of the company the di rectors have satisfied themselves that the actual expense will not exceed £200,000, and that the receipts, including the contract moiler. may be safely estimated at £335,000, leaving the sum of £135,000 applicable to wear and tear, insurance and dividend ; and this statement is made under the convic tion that whilst the expenditure may he still further reduced it is almost certain that the receipts will be greatly increased. "On the impartial review of the actual position of the company, the directors see every reason to encourage them to , perseverance, and with the important reduction in steamers with the saving produced in the wages and provisioning of the ships, a more economical system which has lately been introduced of providing for passengers, a less costly manner of conducting agencies, a diminished number of coal depots, a considerable abatement already effected in the price of coals, added to less consumption of fuel, resulting from longer experience of its various qualities and more vigilant super vision over the shipments, together with a thorough deter mination on the part of the directors to continue the same course of rigid economy, it is hoped that, aided by the con currence and support of the proprietors, not only will the West India colonies be enabled to retain their steam com munication with the mother country, but that the Royal Mail Steam-packet Company will finally surmount the serious difficulties it has hitherto had to encounter." A very lengthy statement of accounts was also read by the secretary. Dr. Bowring would, before the meeting lost itself in questions of detail, move an adjournment, in order to give the proprietors an opportunity of making themselves ac quainted with the accounts just read. (Cheers.) It was impossible to follow those accounts through all their details. (Hear.) A Proprietor.—They ought to be printed and placed in our hands a week or ten days before the annual meeting takes place. Dr. BOWRING thought there was a great deal of sincerity in the report itself, as in fact it was an avowal that there had been a great deal of delusion in the original anticipations — (hear, hear); and that most ruinous calculations had been put forward. At the last meeting he had concurred in a pro position, that in the then state of the concern, when shares on which £5O had been paid were worth only £8 in the mar ket, it was desirable there should be an investigation into the affairs of the company by a committee of independent share holders. He could not forget that in the midst of their dis asters there was a promise of an early dividend, and now the accounts came before the proprietors recognizing a loss of £BO,OOO. (Hear, hear.) He did not mean to throw any reproaches on the board, but he thought the proprietors were entitled to have a little time allowed them for the examina tion of the accounts, and he hoped the directors would readily agree to an adjournment for a week or ten days for this pur pose. The speaker then noticed what he said were general complaints, of the manner in which individuals who came in contact with the officers of the company were treated, and observed thut there was an original infirmity in the company from its very birth. There had been a sad want of a direct ing mind to guide the company safely to its great object. It It was like a ship which had been launched at sea, and which, when the storm came on, had neither helmsman nor rudder —it had been left to the mercy of the winds, and had come out almost a wreck from the tempest. (Hear.) He pro posed that the report and the statements of accounts b e printed and circulated for the examination of the sharehold. The following extraordinary communication has been made by Mr. Alderman Copeland, M.P. for Stoke-upon-Trent, to the manufacturers and o peratives of the Staffordshire Pot teries, regarding certain reports as to the means resorted to by the Anti-Corn- Law League to raise their boasted £50,000 : " London, March 22. TO THE MANUFACTURERS AND OPERATIVES OF THE STAFFORDSHIRE POTTERIES. "My object in again addressing you is to elicit truth.' Statements and reports are current in this city from the Potteries, which, if untrue, I feel that our honour as masters, and justice to the men we employ, call upon us to negative without a moment's delay ; or, if true, that our best efforts ought to be directed to detect and expose the parties who have been guilty of the oppressive acts alleged to have been committed. " Firstly.—lt is stated (nay, affirmed by some who plead the difficulty of obtaining proof of the fact) that several manufacturers who have only work to the extent of three or four days per week have recently given the operative' per mission to work extra time, provided he submits to have the amount he thus earns placed to the credit of the Anti-Corn Law League. Secondly.—That in some manufactories the stoppage from the earnings of the workpeople has been so general, that even children, whose weekly wages amounted to no more than from 9d. to ls., have had no less than 3d. de ducted therefrom for the purpose of the league. _ _ _ ,••••-••••.,..• 1•••• • •• VAS ~/•..• " Thirdly.—That while the master keeps aloof, the clerk or overlooker, when he settles the books of the workpeople, prior to pay-day, addresses each of them to the effect—' We are, you know, about to raise £50,000 for the Anti-Corn- Law League. A. B. (naming a fellow-workman) has agreed to give (say from ls. to 2s. 6d.); I suppose you will do the same.' That in case of refusal to comply with the terms the party is marked for dismissal at a convenient opportunity. " Fourthly.—That this system prevails in the Potteries for the promotion of other party objects besides that of the Anti-Corn-Law League. " Lastly.—That from 15 to 25 per cent. of the earnings of the operatives has been stopped by the master, to be by him invested in a bank, professedly for the benefit of the opera tive. but really, and in fact, to give the master the command of the capital thus obtained. " My attention has been called to these matters, and I have been urged to advert to them in my place in parlia ment. As a potter I deny the whole 'of these rumours or charges as regards 'my firm.' I therefote say to all parties that, until I have positive evidence, I wig not give the sanc tion of my parliamentary character to a Aatement so gravely affecting the honour and character of Are manufacturers of the Staffordshire Potteries. Nor can 'l' believe, much as I know of and feel for the difficulties of the operative classes, that they are so lost to what is 'due to themselves, their families, and their calling, as to submit to such injustice. I therefore call on my brother potters to communicate unre servedly with me on the subject ; to say whether these things be true or not ; and this appeal I make to every individual. To the operative I say, ' If you have been so treated, tell me by whom, and I will make it known in the House of Com mons, and as far as in me lies protect you by exposing and denouncing the tyranny.' We live in times when statements involving the reputation of our fellow-men are made by one party and denied by another, each with a solemnity that ap pals one ; and it therefore behoves all honourable men to unite (especially in a case like this) to assist in detecting falsehood or affirming the truth. " I am your humble servant, " W. T. COPELAND." ALTAR HARANGUES At the Assizes for Nenagh, just concluded, two men named Michael Larkin and Thomas Gleeson, were indicted for shooting at, with intent to kill, Patrick Tierney, on the 25th of February. The tragical fate of Tierney must be fresh in the memory of the public; suffice it to say, that he was mur dered under circumstances of more than ordinary atrocity, on the very eve of the late assizes, and thus, by a process peculiar to the favoured region of Tipperary, was the leading evidence for the prosecution put " out of Court." The pri soners were acquitted. Among the witnesses called for the defence was the Rev. Mr. Maher, the parish priest of Toom avers, and here follows the reverend gentleman's evidence, as reported in the local paper The Rev. John Maher, parish priest of Toomavera, was called on by Mr. Hassard to give the prisoners a character. The rev. gentleman being sworn was examined.—l know the prisoners. I know their general character, for I have been their parish priest these twenty years. I know them to be peaceable, industrious men. I know them not to be mixed up in those matters that disturb the country. Mr. Scott.—ls it a fact that the neighbourhood of your parish has been disturbed of late? Rev. Mr. Maher.—l cannot say it is remarkable in the way of disturbance more than any other place. Mr. Scott.—Are you in the habit of speaking of people in your chapel? Rev. Mr. Maher.—l am not in the habit of speaking of people by their names. During the time of the assizes I coution them to guard against false swearing, for I have known instances where people have been induced to do so. Mr. Scott.—Did you .ever find it necessary to denounce the deceased in your chapel Rev. Mr. Maher.--He name to me to know if I had any notion of making a charge against him with regard to an im proper familiarity which he had with a female. I said that was the first I had heard of it ; but I told him it was the general opinion he was swearing falsely against the prisoners. Mr. Scott.—Do you know yourself that he swore falsely ? Rev. Mr. Maher. —Only from the general report of the neighbourhood. Mr. Scott.—How long before his death did you denounce him ? ~.Rev. Mr. Maher. —I did not mention his name; I had reason to speak, and I referred to the people in general, and to him in particular. To Mr. Scott. —It was on Sunday he came to my house. Mr. Scott. — Yes ! and h e was atta cked afterwards; in e came to me on Sund a y morn i ng an d ask was not fact, he was murdered that ni g ht.

Mr. Maher. —In a general manner ; I made general observations. I said some people were in the habit of com ing forward to swearin matters they knew to be false. Court.—Did you mention his name at that time? Rev. Mr. Maher. —I be lieve I did. Mr. Scott.—The congregation were in the chapel at the time ? Rev. Mr. Maher. —They were. THE OLD AND NEW BANKRUPT LAW.—In a case of bankruptcy, under the old law, when a solicitor had been summoned to bring hi the proceedings, the solicitor's bill of cats, up to the choice of assignees, which had been paid, amounted to £125. Under the new law, the solicitor's bill of costs, up to the choice of trade assignees, scarcely ever exceeds £23. - - A WIIALE.—On Sunday last a whale, 46 feet in length, was captured in the Moray Frith. The fish was first notcied about 7 o'clock in the morning by the man in charge of the stake-nut at Kelmuir. It was then floundering and blowing away on a sandbank, and the man getting out his coble, and procuring the assistance of two lads in another boat, pro ceeded to the spot, armed with an old sword and some such other lethal weapon. They succeeded in inflicting several wounds on the whale, who darted hither and thither, now making for the mouth of the Ness, and again plunging for ward towards the opposite side of the frith, till at length he arose in the vicinity of the boats, and the pursuers, with great boldness and no little risk, succeeded in fixing a grapnel in the head of the fish, entering one of the blow-holes. At this stroke the whale darted off with great velocity, dragging the boat behind him at a fearful rate. The conflict was not unobserved, and a rival party now entered the field of action, determined to share in the glory and gain of the victory. The Kilmuir men say, they had made the fish fast with ropes, and had it fairly aground, exulting in their prize, when two large boats, filled with men and headed by the Craigton pilot, appeared coming from the westward towards the scene of action. Their wives and daughters from Craigton village also arrived by land, and a regular scuffle ensued, which might have ended seriously had not the Kilmuir people, who were in the minority prudently given way, but not till several blows had been struck. The fish is said to be worth from £lO to £5O. It is of the finner or razor-back species, and is of the following dimensions :—Lenth of the head, 11 feet ; breadth of the head, 6 feet ; breadth of the tail, 10 feet ; and the whole length, 46 feet. — lnverness Courier. CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE.—At the Surrey Sessions, which concluded on Saturday afternoon, Mr. Charnock, who was engaged to defend a prisoner (the evidence for the pro secution entirely resting on circumstantial evidence), said such evidence-was always dangerous to convict on, and cited the following remarkable case, which the learned counsel said was not generally known :—On the northern circuit, a few years ago, a respectable farmer was indicted for the wilful murder of his niece, to whom he was left executor and guar dian. A serious quarrel took place between the uncle and his ward, and the former was heard to say that his niece would never live to enjoy her property, although she wanted but a short period of becoming of age. Shortly after this declara tion and quarrel the niece was suddenly missed, and no one knew what had become of her. Rumours were quickly spread to the disadvantage of the farmer, until it was at length pub licly reported he had murdered his niece for the sake of pos sessing himself of her property, and that he had concealed the body. On his being apprehended on a charge of murder, various spots of blood were found on his clothes, those being the garments he was in the habit of wearing. Appearances went so much against the prisoner that lie was committed for trial. At the assizes application was made to the judge 4o postpone the case, on the ground that public indignation was generally excited against the prisoner that he could not safely go to trial, and an affidavit was pat in that, if the time was granted, there was no doubt that the niece would be produced in court, and that the prisoner was entirely innocent of the murder. The application was successful, and in the interim the most strenuous exertions were made on behalf of the prisoner and hisTrienL to find the niece, but all to no pur pose, and the searc h prov ed fruitless. The period of the assizes at length came ro und, and being unable to produce tit% niece, th e prisoner, to save his life, resorted to a decep tion, the fatal step of which procured his condemnation and execution within 48 hours after trial. A young lady was pro duced in court exactly resembling the supposed murdered female; her height, age, complexion, hair, and voice, were so similar that many persons in court, who were acquainted with the niece, were satisfied she was the same, and some witnes ses actually swore to the identity. An intimation, however, was given to the counsel for the prosecution, that the female in court was not th e n i ece o f the prisoner, but the resemblance was perfect. By th e mos t skilful cross examination by the counsel for the p rosecut i on , the artifice was at length detected, and the jury with out h es it a tion pronounced the fatal verdict of Guilty. Hi s L or d s hi p , in passing sentence of death, said it was impossible the jury could have come to any other con clusion, and sentenced the unfortunate man to be executed on the following Monday. On the scaffold, with his last breath, the unhappy convict declared his innocence, but the clergyman rebuked him for hardihood, and the crowd of spec tators who had witnessed the execution were satisfied he died a guilty man. Within two years after the execntion, the niece actually 'Made her appearance, and claimed the property to which she was entitled. It appeared that on the day after the unfortunate quarrel, the niece eloped from her uncle's house with a stranger to whom she had recently become at tached, and had never been heard of until her sudden and un expected return, and that she had only by accident heard of her uncle's execution.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MARCII 31. We have had a very general and good inquiry for Cotton again to-day, and the sales may be estimated at 6000 or 7000 bales, at the full prices of the week. The weekly sales are again very large, say 56,000 bales : of these speculators have bought 22,340, and exporters 3400 bales. The market closes with a steady and firm feeling. COTTON MARKET, APRIL 1. The market opened with a fair enquiry for Cotton, and the an nouncement of the Great Western's being off the port caused a fe verish anxiety to know the intelligence by her as to the extent of crops. Business seemed almost suspended for an hour, and the general account of the large receipts at the various shipping ports, confirming the largest estimate of crop, threw quite a damper upon the market; and what business was afterwards transacted was attempted to be done at lower prices, which buyers did not succeed in accomplishing. The sales were warmly estimated at from 4000 to 6000,200 being American on speculation. COTTON MARKET, APRIL 3 This morning very few buyers comparatively made their appear. ance in our market, and when operations commenced it was evi dently the expectation that holders would submit to lower prices. For some time this contest was carried on; and, though in some isolated cases purchases have been made on easier terms, 'tis not sufficiently general to induce us to quote the market lower. The feeling is in favour of the buyer, and the arrival of about twenty four Cotton laden ships since Friday last will not lighten the pres sure. To-days sales are 4000 bales, 500 of them for export.

We continue without variation in the duties upon any description of Foreign or Colonial produce. The principal entries in this port for home consumption during the past three months, consist of 2,200 qrs. Wheat, and 11,460 bar rels Flour from British Colonies; 2,038 qrs. Beaus, 1,105 Pease, and 2,835 qrs. Barley from foreign imports, besides only 378 qrs. Foreign Wheat realised from our previous bonded stock, and the recent arrivals from the Baltic and other directions. The fresh arrivals of the past few days are scarcely worth naming, the vessels supposed to be near at hand being kept back by unfavourable winds, in which, however, we had a change last night, with fine mild showers, indicating every prospect of spring culture being satisfactorily com pleted. In the interval since Tuesday last, we have:had no;percep tibly improved demand, though the symptoms of a better state of things in London this week have had some slight effect towards a restoration of confidence, which may induce a better inqury for consumption, or at least check the down ward tendency we have so often, of late, had occasion to write : at the same time, many of the interior markets being nearly on a par with our own, we cannot immediately expect a much extended business. Upon a fair attendance of buyers at our Corn Exchange to-day, the Wheat trade assumed rather a firm aspect, with a moderate demand for English, Irish, and good qualities of Foreign, at the full rates of Tuesday, and at an advance of ld. per nibs. upon the general runs of Odessa and Mediter ranean. Flour likewise, though not readily disposed of, was a little more saleable, and home made, as well.as Irish and Foreign, maintained our last quotations. Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease remained In the same languid state as noted in our last circular, and at the prices then specified. Oats, attended with a moderate inquiry, steadily supported their previous value; and Oatmeal, attracting a tolerable degree of notice, commanded a slight improvement upon last week's currency.

There is a complete dearth of fine Butter, and holders of what little there is here, command their own prices. On the contrary inferior qualities arc entirely unsaleable. A little new Butter has arrived, for which 110 s to 1111 s has been got. In barrelled Provi sions there is nothing to notice beyond tolerable brisk ship store demand, at 90s to 95s per tierce for the best Irish Beef, and 40s to 45s per barrel for Pork. The demand is more active for Bacon, and holders are certainly more confident. LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, APRIL 3. At this day's market we had a larger supply of Beasts, and prices stationary. The supply of Sheep was small, which met with a limited demand from id to id per lb. above our last quotation. Prime Beef, 5d to Sid ; Middling and Inferior, 4d to 4id. Prime Wethers, sid to 6d; Inferior, sd, sinking the offal. Beasts, 830; Sheep, 2,171. COTTON MARKET.-WEEKLY REPORT There has again been an extensive business transacted this week, the Trade, Speculators and Exporters having purchased largely. In prices no improvement can be noticed, as many of the Importers srill continue to offer their stocks freely. Brazil and Egyptian have been in more request, but are again rather lower. East India remains as last quoted. Speculators have taken 23,000 American, and Exporters 3000 American and 400 Pernambuco. There have been forwarded into the country unsold during the month 11,040 American and 300 Brazil, and there is deducted from the stock 1300 Pernambuco, 300 Orleans and 300 Surat, burnt at the late fire. 1100 Sea Island and 100 Stained will be offered by auction on Friday next, the 7th April.
